Hi - I'm working on an OBS setup where I have a live camera coming in on HDMI (via Avermedia LGX) and a Powerpoint Feed from a 2nd PC coming in via NDI stream.
I want to overlay the PC in a window over the live camera for recording the presentation.
But I would like to be able to switch the PC to different positions (bottom left, top right etc).
I created a scene "PC" which includes the Source "NDI Feed"
I then created a scene "Ovelay" in which I included 4 instances of the "PC" scene as sources, one in each corner.
I then added the "overlay" scene as a source on top of my camera feed. All great at this point.
I then went into the hotkeys, and for the overlay scene, I assigned a different ket to turn on/off each of the 4 overlays.
This worked great - I could simply have the composite picture and turn on/off the 4 overlays individually.
I then came out of OBS and then restarted OBS. But the hotkeys don't seem to work right. All 4 of the overlays seem to respond to only the last hotkey I programmed.
I'm guessing it's because all 4 instances of the PC overlay are called the same and so the hotkeys don't work quite right.
Is there a way to fix this (I was looking at how I could have different names for all the 4 overlays - can't seem to do it?)
Is there an easier way to move my PPT overlay to the 4 corners quickly via hotkey mid recording?
Any help welcome.
