Hi Gaming Careers! Thanks for all your videos helping the community (: I have a unique problem that seems to be common in the community. Basically, in OBS Studio, if Noise Supression is on, it mutes my controller clicks (which is great) but cancels out my higher pitched noises like laughs and screams. I can't seem to make it work the way I'd like with just a Noise Gate. I have a white snowball mic. Active filters include: Noise suppression, compressor, gain, limiter and noise gate and I have narrowed it down to just Noise Suppression being the issue.
Started streaming only recently after years of not being able to. Your channel is certainly one of the most qualitative in stream education on UA-cam. Keep up the good work, congrats.
I’m using my stream deck as a numpad, soundboard, voice changer, volume controler, mic controler, media volume controller, FPS monitor, GpU and CPU Temp monitor and probably a few things I’m forgetting
I just got a Stream Deck and am having issues with errors. I set up keys to send out NightBot commands to my chat when live on UA-cam but these only work a couple times before i get the yellow error screen on my buttons. Wondering if Stream Deck is blocking these thinking it's spamming?
I'm not a streamer, but use a Stream Deck as a productivity tool at work. The Windows Mover tip is going to save me so much time - wish I'd known about this a long time ago! Thanks for all the great tips!
I know this is an older video, but as an owner of a c920, you are correct. This just saved me 2 minutes of irritation to the point where I sometimes didn't even fix it. Thanks!
Just a heads up for any MMO players that stream, F13-F24 is actually accessible via Shift+F1 through Shift+F12 (for example, Shift+F5 is F17). So if you have those setup for anything in the game, lookout for that.
This is super helpful , means I'll actually have to stop procrastinating and actually start streaming again , because this sorts out one of my biggest problems , the arrangements of windows on my second monitor with the push of a button!
I was looking for this exact setup for switching between audio devices, and the extended Function key setup is pure genius! Thank you so much! Looking forward to a Part 2!
I probably use the profile switcher a lot. Since being a streamer and content creator, you might need certain things for recording that you would for streaming. By a click of a button, it will have the secondary profile pop up. Have the stuff you need to record and you could even have the third option for the editor you use without having to worry about pressing the wrong button.
I'm an educator that streams over various platforms and use multiple tools and was wondering about this device. Operating system, worth the cost, ease of use and so on. You made a compelling case for me to purchase. Thank you.
I was using the paid iOS app for a few months to see if I'd REALLY use the Stream Deck. The app was a bit frustrating with it's Wifi connectivity so I just took the plunge on the Stream Deck - easily one of the best tech decisions I've made in a long time. I bought the XL and am VERY happy with it.
@@seancasgamer I can't see any downside to buying one, it looks to be a nice bit of kit to. Loupedeck looks nice to but I like the streamdeck for the buttons. What size did you buy?
How did you get your Twitch Chat into a separate tab all by itself? All I can seem to do is pop-out the chat which does not show as its own tab and therefore I can't seem to use the Window Mover to control it. Help!
Thanks for the super video! I am trying to resize my open Winword window but no matter what coordinates & resize height and width coordinates I choose, it ignores them and just opens my Word document in the postiion and size that I last had any word document open. Can you please advise what I need to do to fix this? Thanks a lot! 🙏🙏
Welcome to this stream deck video. Today, we are talking about how awesome Bar Raider is! Seriously though, he's a great guy! Very chill. Excellent video!
I love this! Part of my problem, is that I'm 72 but have done live satilite broadcast as both a producer, on-camera talent (especially from war zones) but all this is so new to me. I'm starting a show called DIARY OF A GONZO FILM MAKER. I'm going to be cutting to lots of "roll-in's from various movies I've made. That's the main thing I need from Elgato. I plan to use 2 of the incredible ZV E-10's and yes, I need Cam Control... will it work on Mac? I have so many questions and you're the best expert I've found.
This makes me happy - always keep learning! What's the latest on your show? Just searched for it and didn't find anything. I'd be interested to give it a watch.
@Mickey Grant. Little tip. When asking a youtuber a question put @then there channel name so they see it as a direct message. As you can imagine when you have 1000s of subs and 100s of comments they won't read them all. Have a great day
This is exactly what I needed to see today!! I will definitely be implementing a lot of these tips into my own stream, thanks man and keep up the great work! 🙏
Excellent video. The only problem I have and I am probably doing it wrong or do not understand how to do it. Using the stream deck for sound bites during a stream I hear it through my speakers and my mic pics it up so the viewers hear it. But is there a way to do it through the stream like when we play music? That would be a very helpful video.
Thank you for this. I've had a stream deck for months, but pretty much use it in a basic way. This will make my life so much easier. Just subscribed to this channel, because I've watched the past couple of months and it's really been helpful in moving forward as a content creator in so many ways. Thank you for all the hard work and sharing your knowledge with us.
Awesome video, thank you for the tips! Regarding audio switcher, I've noticed when I switch it not all programs seem to follow suit, with some audio coming out of my speakers. Would I need to toggle between the two in each program or is there something I'm missing?
I have a GoXLR and find that rather than switching audio devices between speakers and microphone I just use the line out on the GoXLR to my speakers and have a dedicated fader for both headphones and microphone. I usually have one muted and exclusively use GoXLR to control everything. I had the setup with StreamDeck previously with Audio Switcher but find this new approach much simpler and even quicker.
Thank you so much for this! 😁 Would you consider making a short video on how to set the Weather on the Elgato Stream Deck? I can't seem to get the API settings right and very confusing... 😪
Thank you for this video. How do you select Chrome pop-outs for Twitch Chat, Quick Actions and Activity feed ? I can't manage to get them in the Windows Mover.
For any features you wish you had that you don't you can expand the power of this device (or your keyboard, desktop, etc) 1000 fold just by integrating AHK or AutoIT Scripts. Some things can be improved, example the Window Position, rather than using a delay to wait for an application before moving the window, in AutoIT its as simple as ShellExecute() or Run() to open the application and then waiting with If ProcessExists() or WinWait() so it will be sub millisecond accurate without any raw delays, then you can add in error correction to close the process and re-open it should it hang, etc. I have used Automation like this for years, even when I was on the dev team for XSplit, and I just use keyboard hotkey combos or GUI's but I think I'll finally get one of these just for the pretty buttons lol. If you do not have the Twitch API ping yet, that can be something I look into making once I get mine.
3:18 App volume device preference is an AWESOME tipp, or in other words: I was today years old when I learned you can predefine which input and output each software uses per default! Why is this so time and nerve saving? Often times I connect to a teams or teamspeak or what ever call and my inputs and outputs are all over the place, but hopefully not anymore :D
Amazing video. Is there a way to automate Stream info change? Lets says you Stream one game and then another one and you don't want to manually have to change the stream info every time but have something pre set.
awesome video. one thing I do with my 'going live' button is make it a multi-action switch so that i have actions for stream ending like setting twitter name back, turning off studio lights and playing ending music.
I tried that Audio Switcher plugin, but it cannot seem to set the Voicemod Input as a default device. I think the issue might be with Voicemod though, as another plugin also won't set it correctly.
Looks great and advanced enough to me. Have you done a similar video for Loupedeck Live and preferably on the MACINTOSH platform? I bet that would be a bit more complex.
Along with normal stream control stuff, I use the Advanced Launcher plugin to run Packet Sender with the appropriate options to change Input/Output mappings on my HDMI Matrix Switch. Along with my monitors, one of the outputs is an Atomos Connect 4k that is connected to my Gaming/Streaming PC as the capture source for my streaming. This allows me to quickly and easily capture any source on the HDMI Matrix Switch (including of course the Gaming PC output used for games).
Dear, I would like to use the stream deck to do presentations via a beamer. Pressing the button should then display or play the underlying photo or video full screen. if I now open a photo and I press the button 10 times then there are 10 screens above each other with the photo, a press on the button should first close all open windows and at the same time start the new photo/video. like some kind of video jukebox. is this possible if so how or with which plugin, if not could this be added, because I see many applications in it. thanks in advance
Great video. Thanks for the tips. I’m new to the Stream Deck, but I’m loving it for productivity. When I look for Windows Mover, it’s not showing up in my native store app. When I search for it in my internet browser I can find it, but it won’t download on my Deck. Any tips for what might be the issue? Thanks in advance.
Is there a similar multi action or simple action for when you finish the stream? Let's say you're done, you said good bye to your audience. Can you press something on your streamdeck to end it or do you have to manually find the End Stream button on your PC screen and click on it? Thank you!
@Gaming Careers Thanks for the vid and learning about the Windows MOver is great! I'm currently trying to get my twitch chat set up, but for some reason, I can't seem to find the "App name" for it. In your video, you get it all set but I couldn't see what the title was of the app name :-(. Can anyone help?
I LOVED that last tip on multi actions. Once I get used to things I'll certainly be using that :) Can I ask what is probably a dumb question though, please? Ok...say I've got a button on my stream deck with the Twitch logo on - titled STREAM - that I would like to when it's used then display a set of buttons I can use whilst streaming, and then have another button to hit to go back to the basic layout I used before streaming? How do I do that on the stream deck? Hope this makes sense...if anyone can answer this PLEASE DO! I need all the help I can get.
Easy, just create a folder - that's included in the Stream Deck software under the Stream Deck tab, then just change the icon with a one that you have created yourself / found on the internet, you can also directly create one from the elgato website by clicking the small downward arrow and then "Create an icon". Then inside this folder you will automatically have a return button.

Going to save this!
Arranging apps, count downs and death counters would be awesome
Just curious, why is this in the lofi playlist?
Your doing Lofi stream
Started streaming only recently after years of not being able to. Your channel is certainly one of the most qualitative in stream education on UA-cam. Keep up the good work, congrats.
I’m using my stream deck as a numpad, soundboard, voice changer, volume controler, mic controler, media volume controller, FPS monitor, GpU and CPU Temp monitor and probably a few things I’m forgetting
Very nice addition adding the buffering to prove your point. You are an exceptional content creator, thank you for you.
This is VERY helpful for some of us OG Stream Deck users who have not yet dug deeply into the new SD plugins in the 5.x SD software and store.
I just got a Stream Deck and am having issues with errors. I set up keys to send out NightBot commands to my chat when live on UA-cam but these only work a couple times before i get the yellow error screen on my buttons. Wondering if Stream Deck is blocking these thinking it's spamming?

Very nice video!! I incorporated a few that id idn't already know. Thank you!
I have been looking into the stream deck this just makes me want it more! Great video! More if this please 🤙
I was using the paid iOS app for a few months to see if I'd REALLY use the Stream Deck.
The app was a bit frustrating with it's Wifi connectivity so I just took the plunge on the Stream Deck - easily one of the best tech decisions I've made in a long time.
I bought the XL and am VERY happy with it.
@@seancasgamer I can't see any downside to buying one, it looks to be a nice bit of kit to. Loupedeck looks nice to but I like the streamdeck for the buttons. What size did you buy?
Hey mate, in 3:41 I can't select any of my audio outputs, do you know how to fix this? I'm using GO XLR outputs too but not Wave Link.
Figure this out?
Got my stream deck a few weeks ago and aside from streaming, been loving using it for editing hot keys
These tips are still really handy 2 years on. Thank you
Man, i was just looking for a plugin to show my SSD storage level, that Win Tools has the perfect solution! Excellent video!

This is really cool. I don't stream, but I use my stream deck as a macropad and found some of your tips to be really useful. Keep up the good work
Very interesting and entertaining - good combo! Props
This was SUPER helpful! You should definitely make a part 2
Hey in the Windows mover plugin.... How are the Twitch pop outs called? I can't seem to find them. PLS help
The window moving plugin and the panic button are both such great things to use. Thank you so much.
This is wonderful information, I did have to slow it down to get it all lmao....thank you so much for this!
Awesome video. I'd love to use the "Windows Mover" Plugin but it doesn't seem to exist on MacOS...know of any alternative?
the speed test plug in doesn't show up when I search for it. Any help? Using the latest version of stream deck software

Where is the plug-in you mentioned called window mover? Don’t see it in the store. Thanks
Changed my life with the multi-action and windows mover plug-in. Thank you! 🙌
thanks, a real insight into the uses - I just bought one bought had no real idea it was this powerful.
Nice I’ll be using the hot keys feature. Also thanks you’ve been dropping knowledge that’s helped me for a couple years now.

Thank you so much. I am definitely going to be taking advantage of a couple of these. I already added some of them to my new stream deck
thanks thishelped alot, I've been thinking of buying one for my streams
332 likes and ZERO dislikes! You know you're doing things right from such a ratio. Keep up the good work!
Fantastic idea on the Hate Raid. I never thought about a multi action button. The simplest thing. Thanks

Wait so you can control the Wave Link software with the GoXLR sliders?
Great ideas! I just ordered mine. Appreciate the insights.
Thank you for this video. How do you select Chrome pop-outs for Twitch Chat, Quick Actions and Activity feed ? I can't manage to get them in the Windows Mover.
This is very good content. I appreciate the tips and the great examples you use in your channel.
I was wondering if you can show the OBS studio multi action portion like how you start your stream. What is the 5 min timer for?
Thanks man, the windows mover is a big deal , amazing how easy it solved a big issue for me
how do you use wave link without a wave link mic? I can't get Wave Link to work
For any features you wish you had that you don't you can expand the power of this device (or your keyboard, desktop, etc) 1000 fold just by integrating AHK or AutoIT Scripts.

curious how you can use the wave link software with your mic?
How did you get the chat and dashboard in the windows mover plugin?
Great tips - Im trying to use the plug in that organizes the windows. How can I get the UA-cam chat window popup to react to a key command ?
Got my deck a week ago, what a well timed video
awesome video. one thing I do with my 'going live' button is make it a multi-action switch so that i have actions for stream ending like setting twitter name back, turning off studio lights and playing ending music.
Awesome to see your channel's progress over the last few years. Thank you for the very useful content! Going to shop around for some Streamdecks. :D
Incredible video-as always!
Where do I find the cam control plugin, it doesn't seem to appear in the Stream Deck store.
10:16 Forget the C920, the Brio has this problem too. Logitech, SMH lol
does the window mover and resizer work for multiple chrome windows? pretty much all my stream helper things are browser sources
I tried that Audio Switcher plugin, but it cannot seem to set the Voicemod Input as a default device. I think the issue might be with Voicemod though, as another plugin also won't set it correctly.
Looks great and advanced enough to me.
Have you done a similar video for Loupedeck Live and preferably on the MACINTOSH platform? I bet that would be a bit more complex.
Along with normal stream control stuff, I use the Advanced Launcher plugin to run Packet Sender with the appropriate options to change Input/Output mappings on my HDMI Matrix Switch.
