    We've been trying to figure out how to get Companion and StreamDeck to talk to each other and your video finally got us there! We don't even use QLAB 🤣. Thank you!

    Hey Jay, Will this work over the network or does the stream have to be plugged into the native computer?
    Would be super cool if I could control QLab from a seperate room without an iPad lol!

    Can you shed some light on this setup. Everything works with the setup with companion and stream deck. The only issue I am getting is when I want to add companion buttons to stream deck so I can setup each button that correlates to the page I consistently get a unplugged icon and stream deck states (connecting to a locally running companion, make sure that you have at least version 1.3.0 or higher) which I do. Do you know why it wont connect. I have followed your instructions to a tee.

      Same issue here. I am running newest version of Qlab (5.2) and cannot seem to make it work. Stream deck is showing all preset buttons from companion list for qlab. Going to test an older version and see if qlab and companion decide to shake hands.

    This is a great video! I'm running Stream Deck 5.2.0 and I don't see a Companion or a Custom option in the menu. Am I missing something?

    how do you keep the page/down activate?

    • @KINETICPROFESSIONALS
      @KINETICPROFESSIONALS  3 роки тому

      Can be added as a button in companion. But with the standard stream deck software, it needs to be added as a page. Them each page will need a button that is essentially a shortcut that brings up another page. Vastly easier in companion. Sorry for the late reply

    Can't get this working with either Version 5 or version 4 of QLab. Lab say they both work, but I can get the buttons on the StreamDeck (they light up when I press them) but they don't do anything. My ATEM Mini works fine on it, so it's all connected. Running an M1Mac Mini on Ventura 13.1 Anyone have any tips? I have tried everything written here.

    Based on this video, I think this only work with QLab 1. I tried using Qlab 2 and nothing fires on the stream deck. Launching Qlab 1, buttons fire just fine.

      alot of variables to ask. But will try. Are you on the right stream deck page? have you assigned a key function to the stream deck? is companion still running when you launch Qlab? it needs to run in the back ground.

      @@aaronwilson9465 Thats odd. Without being there its kind of hard to trouble shoot. The emulator works witch means companion is is getting the message through. Have you tried a different computer running qlab and companion ? it could be a preference setting within your pc.

    Dude. From 6:15 to 6:55 what are you even doing? Generally in tutorials people explain their actions. What is the menu where you keep selecting "1"?
    Think for a moment that the people watching are trying to learn, which means they don't ALREADY know what you're doing.
