Question / Help Record currently focused window

[vjpr]

I want to press a keyboard shortcut to automatically record the selected window. Is this possible?

I am already using Advanced Scene Switcher to record the monitor that the mouse is in.

I guess I need a way to dynamically modify a `Window Capture` source.

Advanced Scene Switcher has an option: `Enable switching of scenes based on file input`, which is close to what I need.

Don't think that's possible. Until you click to bring forward a window (and therefore change the active application) OBS won't recognized the window as "selected". The closest approximation would be changing scenes based on active application-- just hovering over a window isn't going to trigger it.
