Browser Source - Refresh browser when scene becomes active

[Advansys]

Hi,

Firstly, thank you to all the contributors to the OBS project!

I have a question on how the "Refresh browser when scene becomes active" option should be expected to work.

Environment

Two scenes A and B, each with a shared browser source reference (i.e. same browser source instance) which loads a local HTML file to display an animated Lower Thirds item. In the browser source properties, the "Refresh browser when scene becomes active" is checked.

OBS 26.0.2, Windows 10.

Expected Behavior

I expected that when I select Scene A or Scene B, the browser source should be refreshed.

Observed Behavior

When I select Scene A for the first time, the browser source activates/refreshes as expected. If I then select Scene B, the browser source does not refresh.

What should I expect in the above scenario when using the "Refresh browser when scene becomes active" option?

Thanks,

Greg

Thanks very much @cyclemat for your reply. I knew I could take that approach, although it's desireable to minimize resource utilization by preventing the need for multiple browser instances.
