This video aims to help creators who have trouble with the Lower Thirds with Dockable Control Panel tool. Many have complained that the plugin is complicated, does not work for Mac or Windows 11, and constantly throws permission issues for PC users. The Move Transition plugin is different. This plugin was programmed by Exeldro, who makes quality. Animating lower thirds with this software will solve all your problems. I wish you good fortune with your live streams.
OMG THE INTRO....... OMG IM CRYING LAUGHING........ EPIC Fichter... EPIC... you are have an incredible wealth of knowledge.. amazing tutorial as usual... clearly explained ... great pace, excellent visuals.. as always great video!!!
Something I've played around with with those Move transitions (on the scenes, not sources) is using the "curve" function. Positive/negative values affect whether the object curves away or towards the center of the screen (I forget which way, but play around with it. It's obvious to see) so you can add a subtle curve, or a full on sharp swoop. So you can play with your lower thirds - either coming in from the bottom, or the side, or come from outside the top corners and swoop in to your lower third position (or wherever). Also, you can expand or shrink the source (lower third here); hit the "transform" to get the size locked in, and then shape it to the size and placement you want on the screen and hit that 2nd "transform" spot. Have it appear from the left - stay on screen for however long, and then have it leave on the right. You can even add a *serious* curve so it can get back to the starting position all while staying off screen (without the curve, it'll zip back to the initial position through the screen) I have a title screen with the font coming into screen from one direction, hangs there, and then leaves a different way - while another image curve zooms in from "far away". I am just scratching the surface of this plugin, but there's so much you can do with it!
Great video, thanks mate. Just to let you know, 1000 ms = 1 second. Therefore when you set the timer for 2000 ms, it's not about 3 seconds as you state in your video, it's 2 seconds. The programmers are so precise with the timing by putting it in milliseconds, so that you can be in your settings.
I use seperate on / off keys in hotkeys settings. Also, in the sources panel for move transitions, the little eye greys out when inactive or set to off.
Thanks for your tips, they're very helpful. I was wondering how do you switch between different videos while maintaining one audio source, say a narrating voice?
Thank you again, Scott, for your untiring efforts in educating us. I don't have any audience for live broadcasts but I sincerely like your underlying enthusiasm that keeps me coming back to your site.
Ayomide, your request has been added to my GET IT DONE list. I need to work on production efficiency. I have a big pile of video requests to work on. Thank you my friend.
Using this great tutorial, I added four Move Transition points and I was able to have a logo png continuously scroll across the top of the screen to provide some action while waiting for our Zoom meeting to start. Point 1 was offscreen right. Point 2 was the same latitude, offscreen left. Point 3 was offscreen left and also ABOVE the screen. Point 4 was offscreen above and to the right of the screen. The logo scrolls right to left across the screen (1 to 2), then returns to the right out of sight: offscreen 2 straight up to 3, above the screen over to 4, offscreen down to 1. These transitions are only 10 milliseconds each (the fastest allowed) so there’s minimal offscreen time (40 milliseconds). When matched with scrolling text at the bottom on the screen, it creates a neat effect. I got lucky and was able to get the logo to scroll at the same speed on the first try. (Move Transition Duration 50,000ms and horizontal speed of the text is 160.)
TC you can have as many as you wish for any scene. Don't forget, you can take one scene and nest (embed) it into another. It's a choice as a source. Check it out.
Love your videos!! Can't believe I was manually switching scenes, your Advanced Scene Switcher video is epic. I didn't know OBS could do that. Not all heroes wear capes 🥺. Don't get me started on the move transition plug in. I didn't know this existed.
Thanks!!!! Love that you take the time to show and explain the step by step process in your tutorial and all your other videos. For me learning OBS, Davinci, and how to make YT thumbnails….it’s very overwhelming with so much information.
With a hotkey button push? Yes. Are you looking for a dead man switch effect? In other words you push a keyboard button and the lower third shows up and when you let go, it moves out of view. Is that what you want.
Hey Ed, as long as your logged into UA-cam from 8 to 9pm tonight EST you should get a prompt from YT about the show. Make sure you subscribed. That helps get the notification.
Hello Scott, long time viewer and love the energy you bring! Scott I'm having the hardest time trying to implement this tutorial using Multiple sources. Let me explain: I have 2 distinct Sources in OBS, will call them source "X" and the other one "Y" . I've been successful at making Source "X" do what your tutorial teaches. But what I would like to see is to have Source "X" play and hide and then play Source "Y" also play and hide and then have it loop back to Source "X". My current results are that I'm getting overlays with my X and Y sources. I've tried playing with the Start Delay on Source Y so so as let Source X start and complete its In/out move animation and giving it enough time for source Y to then start. Here are the current settings and times i'm using for each Move Effect, NOTE that all are using 1000 Custom Duration. I show a total of 4 Effect Filters label Move 1, Move 2, Move 3, Move 4: Move 1 Source X = Start Delay of "Zero"___End Delay 5000___Next Move 2. Move 2 Source X =Start Delay of "Zero"___End Delay Zero___Next Move 3. Move 3 Source Y =Start Delay of "5000"___End Delay Zero___Next Move 4. Move 4 Source Y =Start Delay of "Zero"___End Delay Zero___Next Move 1. If anyone out there can help me I would greatly appreciated. NOTE: I could just accomplish this via creating a quick png movie in FinalCutPro and just bring in the "Media" source in and call it quits, but knowing me I know I need to figure this out and its driving me crazy. Thanks everyone.
Safety, This is such a well-crafted question. What you are asking for is absolutely possible. I need to experiment and formulate a solution. Please connect with me on Facebook. Search my name "Scott Fichter," you'll find me. I'd like to: 1) understand your timeline on this. 2) Explain where I am with making a video for you on this topic. Talk to you soon.
@@ScottFichter For any other UA-cam viewers out there reading this post, I can only say I'm quite impressed that Scott does in fact keep a pretty active interaction with his viewers. Scott. I will reach out via Facebook and also let you know I might have found another way to do this via a cheap app called Touch Portal. circle back if you would like me to send you over screen shot and "how to" instructions. Nevertheless I will still want to know how to achieve this via OBS alone...
@@ScottFichter ok Scott. So this could be the title to your next UA-cam video. “Full Control of lower thirds without a browser “. Hit me up 🤙 so we can do A share screen via zoom and I can showcase it and show you how I built it.
This is Fantastic! Victor, can you grit in touch with someone at OBS to see if there is a way to let the end user increase the font. I am Visually Challenged and 508 Complience would be appreciated, Thank you.
Thank you for replying ,Scott. I apologize for calling you Victor. As I stated, I am visually challenged. It seems like you have a lot of knowledge and I enjoy every video I can find that you have made. Let me know if you have any success with getting the font changed to help visually impaired people better access the program. Have a good new year
I know this is not related to this but you’re the one that introduced me to twidget but no matter how hard i tried using it for facebook gaming it won’t work. But on YT it’s working, i hope u can help me solve that issue too. I’m sorry again if this is not related, i might try this lower thirds too ♥️ thanks for helping us creators
BIANXX, nice to meet you. The developer knows about this problem. We'll see if he fixes it. For now I suggest working on different things. Stay in touch.
Thanks so much for this vid. I actually don't stream. I just use OBS with ZOOM to spuce up my online lessons (due to this thing called COVID). If possible, I know you're busy, but I think there a lot people like me who work online via zoom. Maybe u could do a vid about how OBS could level up ZOOM? If you can't, cool. appreciate all hard work.
Hey Scott, I am a fan of your channel, everything I have learned I learned it from you. just want to say thanks for your outstanding Teaching. How can I make my banner looks just like yours, can you make a video on how you did your banner? Thanks Scott !
Restart OBS. If it still does not show up restart the computer. If it still does not show up confirm the location of your installation files in the Program File folder. Do you have two instances of OBS installed on your machine?
@@ScottFichter "C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe" is where OBS installs the program. Only one instance of OBS on my computer. I followed your instructions exactly and still nothing happens.
This is all done with the Move Transition. I had an epiphany moment a few months back watching Scott's Move series. The only problem with so much going on is that the obs log files generated from the art files and Move stuff is about 20gb per hour... So I make sure to delete them every time I turn on the computer. Thanks Scott! ua-cam.com/video/115d94cDMvA/v-deo.html

YES... Thank you for thinking of us new guys... I'm new to OBS and iMac (at church) and I'm a Windows guy at home.
Best plug-in ever. I'm still discovering things it can do, thanks in large part to you! Thank you!
AWESOME!
Thanks for the vids, but how do I make the lower third stop looping after the initial move?
Thanks lots Scott this I consider a better option than default thirds of OBS
If it works stay with the Lower Third with Dockable Control panel. It it gives you trouble use this method.
Can Move 1 and Move 2 be triggered manually by hotkeys assigned to Streamdeck for eg?
I use seperate on / off keys in hotkeys settings.
Also, in the sources panel for move transitions, the little eye greys out when inactive or set to off.
Beam Me Up Scotty. Can't smile wide enough. Absolutley brilliant video. So chuffed to get this working. Flawless. Much appreciated. Thank you.
Just a quick question. Can I resize the lower third image once the transition is running. Is there a stop or pause function provided to allow editing?
Do you know a way to manually trigger the lower thirds instead of it being automated?
Thank you so much for thinking about those of us who are new to this !!!
You are so welcome!
Thanks for your tips, they're very helpful. I was wondering how do you switch between different videos while maintaining one audio source, say a narrating voice?
As long as you mic source is in both scenes there will be zero interruption of your voice regardless of the scene that you in.
@@ScottFichter thanks, that was very helpful
