I'm trying to set up custom in-out transitions based on which scene is switching to which scene, but it does not appear to be functioning at all in OBS 22.0.2 64 bit windows

I have the scenes configured under the Transitions tab as follows:

A --- cut ---> B
A --- cut ---> C
A --- fade --> D

B --- cut ---> A
B --- cut ---> C
B --- fade --> D

C --- cut ---> A
C --- cut ---> B
C --- fade --> D

D --- fade ---> A
D --- fade ---> B
D --- fade ---> C

I click Start under the General tab and it says "Advanced Scene Switcher is: Active"

No matter what, switching scenes always obeys what is selected under the Scene Transitions column on the main toolbar.

Might this have anything to do with the new Transitions Override feature in OBS 22?

ah, I just read in the transitions tab that this will not apply to manual scene switches. Is there any plugin that enables this functionality for manual scene switches?

The built in transition override functionality only works on scene-in, not scene-out, and lacks any advanced per-scene customization.

Hi guys,

recently I came across an issue where advanced switcher does not save hotkey nor even create a new one. In

\AppData\Roaming\obs-studio\plugin_config\advanced-scene-switcher\

the "hotkey.txt" file doesn't get changed and when creating a new hotkey it even does not create the file itself if not presented. I have the file from before when it worked with this code inside:

{
"key": "OBS_KEY_NUM7"
}

I am no programmer, sadly, I know this is for "Num 7" key. It works but I can't change it. Since to program does not save new shortcut, I'm ok with that, no problem. I can still modify the file itself, save it and it works to change this way, but could you please tell me what to write instead of this to have:

"CTRL + 7" shortuct??

Many thanks,

K.

Hi,

sorry about the late reply!

The new hotkey file only gets created when the new hotkey binding is used. So make sure to use the new hotey at least once for your binding to be saved. This is something done by OBS itself internally and I don't think I change that behavior, if I am not mistaken.

This is how the file contents would look if you wanted to use the CTRL + 7 as a hotkey:

{
"control": true,
"key": "OBS_KEY_NUM7"
}

I hope that helps. If you run into any issues feel free to send me a message.

Hi, Ive used adv.scene switcher without almost issues until my last clean installation of OBS 22.0.2 version.
Ive installed vc_redist.x86.exe and copied advanced-scene-switcher.dll to the respective obs folder.

Hi, I need some help with the screen region feature. When my mouse is suppose to be on a certain part of the screen its suppose to change scene, but it doesnt. The other switching features work, but I really need this one. Any ideas?

@OBSnewby,
Recently had this issue myself. Don't know if you have the same problem, but here's what I have and what I found:
- Windows 10 pro, 64 bit.
- OBS, 64-bit.

Where I got stuck is that there is an obs-studio folder, and in its plugins a 64bit folder, all in C:/Program Files (x86). According to the instructions, the dll goes there.
BUT!
If you have a 64bit version of windows, and installed the 64-bit version of OBS, the folder you need to put the plugin dll in is under Program Files, not Program Files (x86).

I had C:/Program Files/obs-studio/obs-plugins/64bit, as well as all those files under Program Files (x86), as though I had installed both the 32bit and 64bit versions of obs. Soon as I put the dll in the Program Files/obs-studios/obs-plugins/64bit, it shows up.

Ignore this quote. Thought you might get an e-mail or something if I replied to your post rather than just posting a new one. See above for possible answer to your issue, if you're still having it.

I am streaming dance classes so I cannot be in range of the computer to switch scenes and the remote plugin that is available makes me to look at the phone while streaming wich is not nice. I would like to use a Klicker/presenter that you use for Presenting in For example Powerpoint or so.

I have such device from Logitech but there is no good way to switch next/previous scene in OBS. There is not even a short cut key to assign to next/previous screen. I If I have the list of scenes in focus I can switch between scenes with arrow keys up/down, the problem in that the klicker is simulating the PageUp/Down keys on the keyboard. Workaround here is to re-assign the keys in the WIndows registry so Page up/down instead uses Arrow up and down. But, as soon as the scene list is not in focus in the application this method does not work.

Please, please add a feature to swich next/prevous scene using any key or device!

Hi everyone!
I'm trying to do a podcast show. Do you know if exist any possibility to switch scenes using an audio device sound activity?

Hello,

I am sure this can be easily do with this great plugin. Just need a make sense logic to do it :). I have two scenes. In first I have VLC Video source of few videos. When they finish playing I wish to switch and start scene 2 which is simple Image slide show. Once slideshow is finished he should switch to scene 1 again and do it all again.

Can someone please help me explain if this logic makes sense and is possible to create.

Thank you!

Hi, i'll post this here too. https://obsproject.com/logs/V8WL7C-Hb_czsDj1
There are no crash logs, not sure but probably because the program stops responding and i have to close it manually?
Anyway, i use advanced scene switcher to switch between poker tables. It works fine for a while and then, while moving cursor from one table to other and switching the table scenes, OBS stops responding and i have to restart OBS. Problem occurs fairly quickly and seems to be reproducable with little effort if i just move cursor between tables to switch scenes quickly.
BTW, i have used advanced scene switcher before to do the same thing and it worked fine, now after setting the whole thing up again after a fresh install it keeps freezing, stops responding.
Any help appreciated, thank you!

Hi, absolutely loving this plugin. I do have a slight request. On the "General" tab you can automatically stop/streaming recording on a particular scene. Can you have an option to delay the stop recording/streaming by X seconds as opposed to having it immediate? This would give users the chance to change off of the scene before the time is up if they don't actually went to end the stream or recording.
 
Hi, since i found this plugin i heavily reworked all my scenes and sources, because it offers so much automation. I love it. But there is one problem i have. It does not seem to save the hotkey, even if i'm using it. i have tried to register strg-alt-P for my pause scene and for disabling the scene changer. it works and i can use them, until i restart obs. After that, the hotkey for the Switcher is gone. Reply #384 in this thread created a hotkey.txt. i created this also, with following code:
{
"control": true,
"alt": true;
"key": "OBS_KEY_P"
}
in the hope that it is correct, but it doesnt work. no hotkey is registered and the hotkey itself does not work.

I think this was already asked tme ago, but I didn't find an answer.

With this great plugin, it would be very very nice, to have a time scheduler (event management?)

At specific date time, a scene is switched (in order to start to play a playlist or else).

It would be nice to have the following options:
- One time execution
- Mon-Fri (selecting also multiple date-time slots)
- Sat-Sun (selecting also multiple date-time slots)
- Each day (selecting also multiple date-time slots)
- Day by Day (one can select Monday and Wednesday and selecting also multiple date-time slots)

I have set up the plugin and it worked like a charm until last update of obs. I have two screen regions defined and they work, but after a certain time obs stops responding and I have to restart the software. It only happens when advanced screen switching is active. Will there be any updates?
Thanks for the great plugin tho.

Is there anyway you can read and write to a text file that's on a server rather than being local on your computer? Or could it read a file from a website?

I followed all installation instructions (moved the dll in the obs bin directory + installed VS visual C++ redis.) but the advanced switcher still does not appear under tools in OBS. What am I missing?
