I'm relatively new to the OBS software. Found a great tutorial on youtube on how to download and configure plug-in Advanced Scene Switcher to automatically switch from multiple webcams using the "scene group" and "macro" of the plug-in. This video was dated 2023 and the problem is the latest version of OBS Studio 64 bit and the Advance Scene Switcher no longer have the tab for "scene group" which is a pre-requisite in this particular tutorial to work the way I need it to, The "scene function" made it able to group my cameras into a separate scene including both cams and had a "random" function with a duration of how long the cameras would be live until switching to the other ,and repeat. I've looked extensively on tutorials on how to configure the latest versions for this exact function but have had no luck. I resorted to downloading a previous version of OBS and a previous version of the Advancecd Scene Switcher plug in, OBS 29.0.2 and Advanced Scene Switcher 1.19.1....part of the tutorial link from youtube: /watch?v=ZJX-G0f1T9w

All the functionality is the same, everything is just located on the "Macros" tab in advanced scene switcher. I recommend taking a look through the wiki page for that plugin if you need help with it

I will look at that, thank you. Is the "scene group" and "random" feature simply relocated?.. as I could not find it on the current versions

Everything can be done with Macros. The old tabs are deprecated. They're still there, behind an option that defaults to off, but they're not maintained anymore.

And, if you need help with a specific plugin, it's generally better to use the plugin-specific Discussion thread. For this one, it's here, and VERY active!:
