I would recommend to use macros also for your screen region scene switches, similar to this one:Hi,
I am typically using the region mode of the plugin to record the screen that I'm active on. 3 screens = 3 scenes; (say A, B, C).
I want to be able to switch to another scene (D) with a hotkey, deactivating region checks at the meantime, and go back to region checks when I push the same hotkey. Is this possible?
Below is what I tried. I was able to get OBS to switch to D, but only for a milisecond and the region check switches it back to respective scene.
- Created 2 macros:
* If the scene is not D, and the hotkey is pressed; then the scene would switch to D, and plugin state stops OBS (tried with and without this last bit).
* If the scene is D, and the hotkey is pressed; then scene would switch to B.
- Added separate pause condition when scene is D.
- Prioritized Macro over Screen Region
Thank you in advance.
This will allow you to set up hotkeys to pause these individual macros.
Then you could use the same hotkey to switch to your scene "D".
Unfortunately using the same hotkey to unpause these macros and return to region based scene switching does not work as the pause / unpause hotkey would conflict with each other.
I will make sure to add a "toggle" hotkey in future.
(You could get it to work with just a single hotkey if you add additional macros to just control the pause state of the "cursor" macros, but I will just quickly implement the toggle hotkey feature instead and update this post once a build is available)
Update: A build which will allow you to define a hotkey to toggle the pause state of macros will be available here in a few minutes:
