So this is what I want to achieve :)

It would be nice to have this trigger only reacts for X amount of seconds on that spot.

Thank you very much @Warmuptill

Hello!

I'm giving the latest beta a spin.

Not sure if that many "select filter" should be there :)

It seems that it is not saving its correct settings there as well.

Also, not sure if this trigger (Screen region) could had a "for x seconds"

Good find! Fixed.

I feel like a more general approach might be in order.
I keep adding the source selection to almost all condition types.
What do you think about adding the duration as a generic option to every condition type like so?

Thank you, I'll give the continuous triggering a scene change to itself a try. Hot keys for pausing each macro would be very cool. It's almost like I wish I could run two separate instances of the Advanced Scene Switcher, each with its own on-off control.

A build supporting hotkeys to un-/pause each macro will be available here in a few minutes:

Hello!

I love it :)

I'll download and test the latest built. I see that you have a couple of new builds named "cleanup", are those compiled with all of the changes from above?

Thanks!

Hello @Warmuptill. I was wondering: do you want to continue our beta testing on the issues system from your GitHub project? Maybe it would be better for you to track everything and merge new builds.

I was testing the latest built and not sure if the conditions OR AND are working for me.

Thanks.

Whatever you prefer - I am thankful for any testing support I can get! :)
Please provide a log file with verbose logging enabled and the settings you are using to reproduce the issue.

Got it. I've created an issue so you can better track it :)

I now implemented the generic time constraint for each macro condition.

A fist build will be available here in a few minutes (all fixes should be included):

Hello!

It works flawlessly, thank you!

Here's an example:

is there likely to put an endif in the file section? it would help a lot to return for a scene.

 

[manoiese]

any probability of putting (previous scene) in General Behavior?

Hello,

I am wondering if it is currently possible to switch to a scene based off of being in game capture?
I have a lot of specific scenes for niche uses (e.g. using .exe switchers to go for various scenes), but now that I am experimenting playing different games I notice that I often forget to toggle the scene properly because I am too lazy and forgetful to do so haha.

A concrete example would be like...
I set up A.exe --> switch to Gaming scene
I play Game A.
I close game A and I start playing Game B.
I swap to the Gaming scene manually.
I alt-tab to chrome, chrome.exe triggers and switches to chrome scene.
I alt-tab back to Game B but it doesnt load....because nothing is set up.
I close Game B and go play Game C ....same deal.

I'd love to have some kind of "if in borderless fullscreen or full screen mode, switch to Gaming scene" or something similar.
I do have a Streamdeck and I do have the potential to use hotkey to focus on the foreground window. Is there a way to automate the two so that it'd function the same has having an automatic scene switcher? Hopefully what I said made sense, I can try to explain this all better.

Hey there!

Have you checked the great Source trigger settings options? You could use the "window" parameter as a trigger for a specific game you are playing, like this:

It works the same way with any source, as long as you can identify what you need inside the JSON parameters.

 

[Warmuptill]

Can you elaborate on that or give an example of what you are trying to achieve?

You are referring to the "if no switch condition is met ..." option right?
If so I don't think this would achieve desirable effects.
The problem with this would be that it would cause the plugin to continuously switch back and forth between the last two scenes.
Assuming you are currently on scene "A" and the previous scene was scene "B" and no switch condition is met the following would occur:

1. Scene switcher switches to scene B and sets previous scene to scene A
2. Scene switcher goes to sleep
3. Scene switcher switches to scene A and sets previous scene to scene B
4. Scene switches goes to sleep
5. Go to step 1.

You have multiple options to achieve what you are looking for.
You could either set up a macro to switch to the gaming scene if *any* window that is fullscreen is in the foreground (focus) by using something like this:

In this case the ".*" is a regular expression meaning use any symbol (".") any number of times ("*").

Alternatively you could just provide multiple specific window title conditions and combine them with "OR" like so:

To automatically switch to the scene showing the browser you could use the "process" condition as it is independent of the window title.
(Usually the window title of the browser changes when you visit different websites)

If you want you can even extend the macro for the browser source to not apply if the game windows are currently open.

I hope that helps.
If you need more examples or support in setting this up feel free to send me a message! :)

The plug-in is great.
I use the screen region for switching. I wish for the switcher to wait until clicking on the region to switch. Is it possible?

Unfortunately right now it is not possible.
But it is a good suggestion - I will add it to the todo list and look into it.
Thanks!

Is switching by time working? I've been using this for a while with the "sequence" functions. Now I added 4 settings to also switch by time, but they don't do anything. Using OBS on Ubuntu 27.0.0. Thank you

 

[snss]

@Warmuptill: 1. Can you include an update mechanism directly into the plugin to make easier the update process? 2. Can you put somewhere the version of the plugin? For these two I would like to suggest a new tab called for example About&Update.
As always, great work!
Thank you.

Can you give an example of what you are trying to achieve and share your current settings?
(Have you adjusted the priority of the different switching methods accordingly?)

Hi, awesome plug in, i found some things could help:

on this windows could be a fixed size of popup, and add a scroll, cause i couldn't scroll to the lower rows:

Also, could be a random group of stingers, and on each of theese secuences, or any criteria, select the random stinger group:

Thanks for the devv duude.
