Hi. Is it possible to make it switch the scene to a backup camera scene when the feed of my main camera freezes?
Thanks in advance
Thanks in advance

Hello, no, this is not currently possible.
I might add some very rudimentary functionality like that but in general I would recommend this plugin for such tasks:
Pixel Match Switcher
Pixel Match Switcher Pixel Match Switcher can trigger switching scenes, changing visibility of scene items and filters, and other actions in response to pixels of video being matched against image templates. Considerable amount of options is...

Thank you for the recommendation, I'll check it out.. And also, I haven't had much look into Advanced Scene Switcher yet but from the preliminary look I took, nice work, Sir!Hello, no, this is not currently possible.

That's the first time I hear about such issues.
Do you see any messages in the OBS log that the scene switcher stopped / started?

From the provided log file I would assume the hotkey signal was received:
So I would assume whatever issue you are facing is not related to the hotkeys themselves but what else you have configured in your plugin.
Can you provide more detail what led you to believe that the plugin was not running?
What have you configured and expected to happen?
It would be best to share your current settings for the plugin by exporting them to a file - this can be done on the general tab.
(If you do not want to share this information here feel free to send me a direct message)

Can anyone think of a way of getting the scene switching to also trigger a midi note? (for external tally or source switching)
Thank you for the wonderful plugin!
I'm not sure if this is an oversight, but in the Scene Triggers section, there is an option to Mute Source (Audio) whenever a scene is triggered, but there is no option to unmute it again later. It would be great if there was an option to unmute an audio source, as well.

Have a scene with one of the command line source items?
Hi - thanks for coming back to me - export attached
so i have a number of scenes that i want to run through via the scene switcher - with the hot key i just want to turn on the automatic scene switcher and then off when i want the rotation to stop...
for example
main scene
2nd scene
3rd scene
I want to be on the main scene for as long as i want - then when ready trigger the advanced scene switcher on and now have it move through 2nd scene, 3rd scene, main scene every 15 seconds for as long as I want - then using a hot key turn off the scene transition and hold on whichever scene i'm on again till i re-activate it
I hope that makes sense?

Don't quite understand. Can you explain a bit more?

Not sure if that is causing your issues, but you have the same hotkey bound to start and stop:
Code:
"startHotkey": [
{
"key": "OBS_KEY_2"
}
],
...
"stopHotkey": [
{
"key": "OBS_KEY_2"
}
],EDIT:
Looks like that might be the issue.
The sequence seems to be working just as expected.
After changing the hotkeys the plugin can be started / stopped as expected also.
Let me know if it works for you after fixing up the hotkey bindings :)

Thanks for the suggestion!
I don't think that should be a lot of work.
I will try to provide a test build later today.
EDIT:
A build with this option will be available here in a few minutes:

Thanks again for the reply
I changed the hotkeys to 1,2,3 on the start, stop and toggle
When I press these keys the plugin still shows inactive
I'm expecting that pressing 1 on my keyboard should change this to active - but it doesnt
SCRAP THAT - ITS WORKING
Brill - thanks for the help.... awesome

Glad to hear that you got it to work! :)
The Plugin UI not updating the status field when using hotkeys to start / stop the plugin is a bug - added to the todo list.

I don't know if this is the right place to put this, but I think I found a bug in the plugin. I was thrilled to see the Pause now be able to pause certain switching methods on certain scenes (big props to the developer on that one, it's a feature I really needed and helps the plugin a lot). Unfortunately, whenever I try to pause File switching for a scene, the file switching still happens when I'm on that scene. I've tried adjusting any settings I could to get it working, but it just seems the File switching blatantly takes precedence over Pause.
Example: Pause [File] checks when [scene is active] [Test Scene]
*File is set to read a name from a file on the desktop*
If I move to "Test Scene" while there is a file on the desktop, it will instantly switch scenes instead of pausing the scene switching method as expected.

Oh, I think I know what is going on here.
The pausing of file scene switching only acts on the feature which allows switching based on the contents of a file and not the one which allows reading the name of the scene to switch to from a file.
The latter is what you are referring to, right?
If so that should be an easy fix and was just an oversight on my end.
I will try to provide a test build with a fix tomorrow.
Thanks for making me aware of that problem!

Perfect! I tried out your test build and it worked like a charm :) Thanks for the quick fix!
Also, one question for you. I'm trying to have the plugin pause at a certain time (actually make the whole Scene Switcher Inactive, not just the switching methods). Ideally I could have this happen when switching to/away from a scene, I feel like this would fit perfectly into the Scene Triggers, but I only see options for Streaming/Recording. Is there a way to currently do something like this? I know I could technically use a HotKey, but I can't find a good way to automate/integrate it. Again, I appreciate the work you've put in!

Glad to hear that it's working!
Stopping the scene switcher plugin completly at a certain time is not possible via scene triggers at the moment.
You could however switch to a scene at a certain time of day using the time tab and then pause all switching methods on that scene.
But I assume that will not work for you as the plugin would only be paused on that particular scene.
I will look into adding these option to the scene trigger tab.
