Unfortunately, right / left clicking on sources is not detectable in this plugin.
If it must be a single scene containing the four sources I believe the above script will do almost what you want:

You will have to click the "eye" icon.

Just out of curiosity:
Why is not possible to simply use four different scenes?
Then you could easily switch between the desired configuration by just left clicking on the scene name.

I understand your question, playing 4 tables of poker there may come a time when a lot of attention or action is required on all four tables so I was looking for something to be able to show the table as quickly as possible. Using 4 different scenes involves moving the mouse to the second screen where the OBS is, clicking on the scene and returning to the table to perform the action and so on, when the other way would be to simply right click. Another idea I have is to create 4 scenes and assign them to the buttons 1,2,3,4 on the keyboard and in each scene the selected table appears, I think that will be the best option, because there is another way which is changing to the active window or to the window that the cursor is over but in some moments I want to show what is happening in another screen that is not the active one or the one that the mouse is over because the action is simply on that table and in the others just fold the cards, I hope with this explanation you understand why I am looking for something like this and sorry for extending so much and thank you for your patience and your help!!

Maybe I misunderstood what you mean by "just by left-clicking on the source".
I had understood this as "i want to right click a source in the "Sources" list in OBS".
So something in the red box below:

But I assume this is not what you meant.

Maybe you had something like this in mind:
Whenever I press the right mouse button check if the mouse cursor is in screen region A and if so show source X.
Whenever I press the right mouse button check if the mouse cursor is in screen region B and if so show source Y.
[... and so on ...]

If so, then you can set up macros like this one to achieve this effect:

You would have to set up a macro for each cursor region / source combination.
(And the regions should probably not overlap)

Instead of checking the cursor region, you could also check the window title of the current foreground window, or which process is currently in foreground, or hotkey press, ....
You can probably judge best which approach is feasible an which is not.

You probably already know, but just to mention it:
This should work natively on OBS without any third party plugin.
You can simply assign hotkeys to scenes in the settings menu of OBS.
 
Hello,

After the latest OBS update, Advanced Scene Switcher crashes OBS every time before loading. I tried re-installing it from Windows 11 Store, no difference. I can't find a way to clean uninstall it and install the latest version again. It's been working great for several years and I need to use it on July 10. Any suggestions? I'm attaching the latest crash report. Thank you! <3

Solved!

I downloaded the plugin's Windows installer from Github site, installed it and it runs great, as before! phew! :)
 
Hey,

I have a problem with the Twitchtoken. It says its invalid but i cant get a new one because the browser wont connect to Localhost 8080. The problem exists for two days and I have tried a lot. Turning of the firewall, checking if the Port is used somewhere else (it is not), rolling back an update and i am runnig out of ideas now.

I would really appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks.

Definitely, create multiple scenes. If there is anything complicated in your scene (like a scoreboard), duplicate it and adjust the camera source to create the new scene. You could then add a text overlay to each scene to indicate which table is seen. Use the standard OBS hotkeys to jump between scenes with a simple keystroke. I would avoid using number keys without a modifier as this can make it really hard to enter numbers when OBS is active. Function keys or keypad keys are great to use. It sounds like your mouse is being used for other purposes, anyway. Check out View->Open Multi-view for another way to switch between scenes.

Basically you want to adjust the window capture sources settings to switch to whatever discord window you are currently focusing (and then also change some scene item visibility stuff)
Hopefully I understand what you are trying to achieve correctly.

You will have to use the "Source" action type to modify the settings of the window capture source.
The most straightforward way of doing this is to simply create X number of macros similar to this one:
View attachment 95687
(I am of course just using notepad as an example here)

You can also get fancy using variables and handle the settings change for any amount of teams in a single macro, but I am not sure if that is the best approach for your setup:

Hey, necroing this post you had for me. We ended up deleting the "team 1" to "team 8" and now we have a bot that creates a channel for them, and its always "Username's Channel"

How do I change this so that it finds the Channel match, but then focuses the same name for Discord?

I tried the variable rate but the "current value" never went past .*Channel.* as if its not finding the wildcard partial match.

Hope this makes sense lol

What is the name of the window?
The plugin will display the current foreground window title in the "Window" condition type:

Hi,

I want to make a warning to the human supervisor of my system if the output volume goes below a certain level for a certain time period. I have a srcipt for the warning, I just need to check the conditions for it. I thought it would be easy to do by a macro, but I realized that there is no option in the audio type macros for checking the stream's audio level, just to check the output level of specific sources. I can use a macro which checks the output volume of all sources and run the warning script if all below the set level but in that case I always need to modify the macro when a new source added which would be a serious flaw in the system that wait for a mistake to happen and also wouldn't work properly if multiple audio source goes to the stream and all below the checked level, but in sum, the output volume reach the checked level.

So could be a check for the stream's audio output implemented into the ASS, or is there any idea how to do a better condition check for my warning with currently available macro settings?

I can't really think of a good alternative to simply checking every source at the moment.
I will try to look into checking if the volume level of the output can be checked, too.
 
Anyone got any ideas to make one [game capture] source copy the window a second [game capture] source is viewing?
I want 2 separate sources looking at the same window that I manually set to 1 of them so that I can have different filters on them.
That means just getting the settings from the og source wont work. unless this is a vanilla obs thing that I don't know about.

You can keep settings of tow sources in sync like this:

But I think it would be better to use this plugin for your use case instead:

Source Clone

Add source to OBS that lets you clone sources to allow different filters than the original

Hi, I was trying different things but I am new to this tool, I would like to hide GENERAL/ANY game capture source when it detects Honkai Star Rail game as active fullscreen game and not when it's fullscreen in the background, my knowledge is too little to set it up properly and after like an hour or so I went with this option, when I click or alt+tab on this Honkai Star Rail window it hides the general game capture and when I alt tab back to something else, game capture shows again with the new game in fullscreen, it's almost perfect but still not ideal because I need to have that app in window mode, could someone help me set it up to work with fullscreen? Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, I am not sure I exactly understand what the problem is.

What exactly is "app" referring to here?
The "Honkai Star Rail game" or something else?

To be honest I am not sure why what you have set up would behave differently depending on if an application is fullscreen or not.
Does "Honkai Star Rail game" maybe change its window title when it switches to fullscreen mode?

OMG I think I am stupid to some degree or I was just too tired back then from the struggles, I was in the middle of writing you answer with questions etc. but then I read your reply once again about you not knowing why it would behave differently, so I went back to obs to check on it and to my surprise It actually worked. Maybe not directly but thanks for opening my eyes and helping me out!
 
How would you essentially say (If audio comes from anywhere in sceneX, turn down sceneY audio till sceneX goes back to 0db)

I thought I had it a few times, but testing it proved me wrong. I cant figure it out.
 
I want to stream pre-recorded loop for 11 hours 55 minutes and end the stream. I can do that with obs output timer but it does not work with aitum vertical aitum multistream. start stream, pre recorded video loop for 11 hours 55 mins, stream end. that work for main canvas and vertical canvas. Can the plugin do that
