Question / Help Webcam (logitech 720) problem

[ot4ku]

Hello,
im not sure if its a bug, or if its something that is wrong with the logitech software.
I dont have the same problem with xsplit, so maybe someone here knows that problem?

I have 2 scenes, on both my webcam is on with custom resolution 640x480.
Everytime i switch a scene the cam goes "off" for some reason even if the second scene also has the webcam on with same settings. It works fine but sometimes when i switch to scene 2 it wont turn on again.
After i switch back to the first scene again then it will turn on and then it also works on scene 2 again to sometimes.
Seems a bit random, i already tryed to slow down the switching between scenes but does not seem to affect the problem.

Any ideas?

thanks for reading!

Make the webcam a Global Source and add the global source to both scenes instead of the normal way.

Only down side to this is that you can't use different resolutions in different scenes (I prefer a lower-res cam output for the in-game cam, to reduce latency slightly and help fit the scaling a little better). But yes, deleting the camera from each scene, setting it up as a Global Source, and re-adding it to the scenes should fix up the problem. As a bonus, it'll make the smooth scene-transitions work again, instead of just snapping between them with a freeze and hard-cut. :D

thanks for your advice! going to test it now, would be great if it works :)

*EDIT*

wow thanks for this advice! great support! works so much better now, the whole switching between scenes became a lot smoother thanks to that! thanks you
