Question / Help Webcam not working in multiple scenes

[Ollek]

I have created 2 scenes for 2 different games. For every single game/scene I have created a different webcam (color, chroma key, shape ect).
Whenever I start OBS studio, only one of them randomly works and the other one doesn`t.
When I create a 3rd scene, the 1st one won`t even work anymore randomly whenever I start OBS.
Is there a solution for this problem?

Filters are global across devices so you can't have a different chroma key or crop on a webcam on different scenes. This is a known limitation and personally I'm not sure if and when it will be fixed.

It will be fixed, i'm not sure when though.

 

[Ollek]

Ok thank you both for your reply! So I`ll just wait.

If the filters you applied are the exact same in every scene, then you can just use the Add Existing functionality.

*push* I really wonder, this hasn't been fixed since March 2016. It would be very nice to use the webcam with different filters in different scenes.

@AsathorSey it is possible through the Scene source:

Filter Part of the Display
or How To Make Image Settings Different Per Scene?
or Font coloring in copied scenes.
