Its not a plugin; but the scene switcher will detect which program you click on then switch to the designated scene.

IMPORTANT: Use NodeJS 14+

Check me out on Twitch Preview of Switcher

Requirements

• NodeJS v14+
• Python 2.7
• node-gyp

If you have trouble with node-gyp. I'm sorry. Here's a link that may help you with node-gyp.

If you get errors with the requirements above; there's not much I can do. Node-gyp is horrible.

Installation

I want this to be easy.

Go to the releases tab at the top; and simply download it.

I like lots of pain when I install things:

Download the files in this repo.

In a Powershell or CMD npm install

Run the app by running the run.bat or run node index.js in a console window.

Keep the console window open while streaming.

Open up Streamlabs OBS; go to your settings and navigate to remote control. Click on 'show' to display the QR Code. After; you can stream normally.

Scene switching should work normally.

Configuration

The configuration file will automatically be generated and refreshed after you run the application.

You will need to generate a token and supply it to the configuration.

Here is a gif on how to do that

After you need to supply the .exe for the automatic scene switch.

You can set the printWindowNames configuration option to true to see clicked windows.

Your targetScene must correspond with the scene name in your streamlabs obs scenes.

{
    "token": "slobs settings -> remote control -> click qr code -> show details -> copy api token",
    "printWindowNames": false,
    "scenes": [
        {
            "windowClassName": "Code.exe",
            "targetScene": "CodeScene"
        },
        {
            "windowClassName": "GTA5.exe",
            "targetScene": "GTAScene"
        },
        {
            "windowClassName": "brave.exe",
            "targetScene": "BrowserView"
        },
        {
            "windowClassName": "explorer.exe",
            "targetScene": "DesktopView"
        }
    ]
}
