How to connect to these outputs
To connect another node's input to an output from this node, use the connection reference format:
["node_id", output_index]Where node_id is the ID of this VHS_VideoCombine node in your workflow, and output_index is the index from the table above.
Example
If this node has ID "5" in your workflow:
Filenames (VHS_FILENAMES):["5", 0]
