I haven’t managed to understand the API/code that presets output yet, but is there a way to say “run this effect e.g. a wipe once from start to finish, then go to the next step” instead of giving a time?
The time is pretty much impossible to get right based on effect length/speed etc, and effects don’t always start from the beginning when doing so anyway…
It don’t believe that’s possible without a custom usermod.
One thing you can do to make sure an effect always starts at “the beginning” is to add “tb:0” to the JSON API for the preset with the effect. That sets the internal “timebase” for the effect to 0 and gives you a consistent start point so timing the length of an effect is more reliable.
