Hello :) we have the problem that we want to apply different filters to one source. The webcam should be inclined in a scene and should be normal again in the game scene. is that possible somehow?

Hello maybe I explained it a bit stupid.


So we want to change the perspective of a screen capture in the start menu with StreamFX. But in the game scene this image should not be distorted anymore.
Is it possible to assign filters to a source once in one scene and leave them off in another scene? Normally it is so that a source is always changed everywhere. We don't know how to copy the source as a duplicate...


Thanks for the help

I'm not expert, but here's what works for me...

In File Explorer, I copy the .lua script. I add 01, 02, 03 to the end of the name (or something more meaningful).

Then In OBS, I click the plus sign to add the copied scripts as needed. You can configure each one independently because they are separate scripts.

For example, I have multiple copies of the CountdownDays.lua script in my scripts folder. Each one is configured to countdown a different number of minutes so I don't have to set the timer when I want to run it for a different countdown.

You should probably consider nesting your scenes too. Search OBS Nesting Scenes on YouTube to learn more.

I hope that helps.

I would put the cam in a scene by itself. Then I would add that scene to other scenes and put the FX filters on the scene in the cases where I needed them and leave them off where I don’t.

Not needed. Just add the camera to a Group in your scene, @DrJackTV, and add the filters to the Group instead of the camera source.

(The holder-scene method was how we did it before Groups, but can clutter up your scenes list considerably; still useful if you want to use the same filtered source in more than one scene though!)
