One thing that would be great is a "master override" - so if for whatever reason you want instant control back you can!

Edit: I realise that was really vague, let me clarify.

Perhaps this is a 'sister' plugin, separate but interacts with this one.

I don't know about everyone else, but I have a 'Scene' for my Scene switcher options, so it doesn't get lost:

I think another plugin could be made that when you click the scene it is embedded in it overrides the Scene Switcher, effectively turning it off:

Then by clicking the original scene switcher scene it re-actives the scene switching plugin.

[I don't know if the images are showing up, I might just imgur link them]

I have the following setup:
Code:
Scene Round Trip,EDB1,82,EDB2,13,Elite Dangerous
Scene Round Trip,FFXIVB1,82,FFXIV
Scene Round Trip,FFOT,5,MAOT,5,OBOT,5,endstream
Scene Round Trip,EDOT,5,MAOT,5,OBOT,5,endstream

But only the top one ever works? IE if I move FFXIVB1 to top it works. Same with other two.
Am I doing something wrong?

What I am trying to achieve is that when either of the two games start, there is a few transition scenes and then it locks on the game window. When I am finished, I manually click the "OT" files and a few "thanks to/ w/e" scenes go by and then it lands on the end stream scene.

EDIT: Kinda figured it out. I had to add a pause scene for the ones I wanted it to stay on.

EDIT2: BTW you guys are awesome!

Hi, im new to streaming and this plugin is great but there are some problem with it at the moment for example:
- if you play rocket league or dead by daylight (those the only 2 that i play) the plugin does nothing
i think its because it has spaces in the process, for example:
- Rocket league: "Rocket League (32-bit, DX9)"
- Dead by daylight: "DeadByDaylight (64-bit, PCD3D_SM5)"
i have my scenes called, RocketLeague-Scene and DeadByDaylight-Scene both, also Rcoket league is in borderless and dead by daylight is in window (Dev choice i cant change)

so if im correct the "code" should be like this:
- Rocket League (32-bit, DX9),RocketLeague-Scene
- DeadByDaylight (64-bit, PCD3D_SM5),DeadByDaylight-Scene

am i doing it wrong ? plz help or plz fix ;D have a nice day

This problem occurs because I am using a "," to separate values you can enter in the plugin options and these programs use the "," in their window name. This causes the plugin to only read the part before the first "," as the window name it is looking for to switch scenes. (For your example it only reads "Rocket League (32-bit" as the window name and assumes the rest are different parameters)

You can however just replace
"Rocket League (32-bit, DX9),RocketLeague-Scene" with "Rocket League \(32-bit. DX9\)".
Same for the "DeadByDaylight (64-bit, PCD3D_SM5),DeadByDaylight-Scene"
It becomes "DeadByDaylight \(64-bit. PCD3D_SM5\),DeadByDaylight-Scene".

Sorry about that! These problems will not be present once the built in scene switcher for OBS Studio is released, since a workaround to implement a UI is not needed anymore.

(the plugin is using a regular expression to match the window name, where the "." character can be any possible character including the ",").

The plugin will always try to finish a running Scene Round Trip before starting another one. You can however cancel the active Scene Round Trip and then start a new one. As you found out it is possible to do that using a Pause Scene. (the pause hotkey should also work)

hi there.
I'm trying to have 3 scenes in OBS that will automatically change viewing window.. I installed this plug in but having a hard time getting it to work. in OBS, i have 3 scenes. Each scene has 1 camera. In sources of each scene, do I chose this scene switcher option? or only in 1 of the 3 scenes. Would love some help and / or the exact written instructions on how to have OBS switch between 3 scenes. (each scene has its own camera and logo artwork), Lets say 30 seconds of each scene. Thanks!

You can add the following line to the Scene Switcher Options to achieve this:

Scene Round Trip,Scene1,30,Scene2,30,Scene3,30,Scene1

Here Scene1 acts as the trigger for the Scene Round Trip. So when you switch to Scene1 the plugin will wait for 30 seconds then switch to Scene2, wait another 30 seconds then switch to Scene3 and finally after another 30 seconds it will switch back to Scene1. This will start the whole process all over again (since Scene 1 triggers the Scene Round Trip).

If you don't want it to loop just remove the last Scene1:

Scene Round Trip,Scene1,30,Scene2,30,Scene3,30

I hope this helps. Let me know if this is working for you or if i understood your question wrong.
If you need additional help (if you don't know where to enter these lines) feel free to send me a message and i can assist you further.

I'm glad to see that the plugin still works with the latest OBS. Cursor/Window region detection still works, too.

Now that the new frontend-api is out in OBS Studio, are you gonna take a crack at redoing the UI and how you setup the plugin? =D

So I have an intro scene that i want to automatically switch to my Main Screen scene and I cant seem to figure this out... I dont want other windows I just want the scenes inside OBS Studio to automatically switch... So could the name of this be incorrect?

This is possible with the Scene Round Trip. I'm currently working on using the frontend api to implement a decent UI for the scene switcher to make setting up the automatic scene switcher easier. But in the meantime you can use this:

Scene Round Trip,IntroSceneNameHere,DelayInSecondsHereHere,MainScreenSceneHere

so for example

Scene Round Trip,Intro,30,Main

Warmuptill updated Automatic Scene Switching with a new update entry:

Added a UI and rewrote the switching process based on the built in scene switcher

Added the UI for the scene switcher. You can find a description of it on the overview page of this plugin.

Since I rewrote a most of the plugin it is very likely that there are a few bugs (UI as well as functionality of the plugin). If you encounter any please let me know.

I don't have access to a Apple computer so i cant build/test this version of the plugin. I will do that as soon as possible.

I will add the Hotkey to pause the scene switcher back again as soon as i find time.

Sorry...

Read the rest of this update entry...

If manually switch between scenes, the timer of the current scene does not work. This seems to be a timer running at a time, globally.
