I love this plugin but since I've updated to OBS 30.1.2 it no longer works correctly. It isn't looping through each video correctly.
Works, however functionality is limited.
I have a custom animated overlay that switches between showing the "top donator", "top gifter", and "top cheerer" lists. I need the ability for the timer to restart when the scene becomes active, much like the options to "refresh browser when scene becomes active" or "restart playback when source becomes active" in the browser source or media source options
This is a wonderful plugin that enables OBS to do things professional broadcast switchers do! For example, I use Source Switcher to build an auxiliary projector output, such that I can switch the projector feed independently from the program (livestream) feed. I combine this with the "Main View Source" plugin to be able to route the program feed back into my auxiliary output, so during a show I can quickly and easily separate the projector feed or have it mirror the program feed via simple hotkeys. For me this plugin has been rock solid, and I highly recommend it for those looking to do advanced broadcast work with OBS.
I guess I'm more of an advanced user of this plugin. I use this plugin to have a rotator at the bottom of my stream between my live YouTube chat and live Rumble chat. I have the two set up as two separate animated scenes that the source switcher switches between. It was working great until the recent OBS update. Unfortunately for my other plugins to keep working, I had to update OBS. But unfortunately this plugin keeps causing the current version of OBS to crash when I switch scenes. For a less advanced user, this is a good plugin, but unfortunately I'm going to have to stop using it until an update is released.
Sir, can you update each scene to have and choose different transitions?
transition and gtg
The plugin is fine, some things worked for me, not all of them were excellent, exeldro
Very good idea!
Thanks for this, its saved so much time with turning off and on sources in multi actions on the stream deck!
Such a nice plugin, it certainly will be very useful to me, but I can't get the sources audio to appear in youtube live streaming. So strange, they show up in Obs audio mixer, settings are ok (monitor and send), I can hear them locally but they mute on the way to youtube.
This one, along with Move Transition and Downstream Keyer by the same developer, has has made my life a lot easier by letting me build all sorts of advanced lower-thirds elements (speaker info, social media accounts, logo etc.) and switch between them with ease right within OBS, without ever having to create video files for them.
Source Switcher does a great job, allowing me to change cameras within the same scene. I've been using this plugin for years—many thanks! The latest OBS update (v31.0.1) caused Source Switcher to stop working, but after updating to the latest version of SS, everything works like a charm.
Awesome plugin and does it's job good!
I would like to request an extra feature for Transition Type...
Transition Type -> Random
Super useful for exactly what it says.
Incredibly easy to set up and start using.
Simple controls eliminate confusion.
Reliable way to cycle through a set of sources.

WISH: It would be fabulous if there was a way to make sure it started with a specific source when triggering from preview to program each time.
Very useful plugin which adds an important key feature of scenes to OBS. This actually should become a standard in OBS. Even as a beginner, I was able to install and run the plugin effectively within minutes.
All the perks of scene switcher without all the extra scenes. This is literally the perfect solution.
It does what it says, but if the sizes of your sources have different dimensions you are absolutely screwed as they wont ever line up. It is making a group of the objects it turns off and on, rather than simply turning on a source already in the scene, and then turning on its copy of the sources.
It's a bit buggy from time to time, but overall it works for me. Just a minor request if I may. I have clips of variance in duration, between 2 and 8 seconds, so I use the 'Media State Switch' set to Ended. Can there also be a 'Between' option, just like in the 'Time Switch' where I can put in a pause of. let's say 1000ms.

And would also be nice if you could like mark the sources from a list of available sources, instead of copy & paste the exact name of the source.

And I like the fade transition in between, but it seems to all go bonkers when I do that, probably my clips are to shorts.

Anyway, thanks for all your work.
Only discovered this now - what a time saver!
I cant get this to change media properly. Few people on the YouTube video comment section, also having this issue for 3 years. Anyone know how to fix it?
