Switch Stream Scenes With Keyboard Shortcuts

Change scenes during a live stream with keyboard shortcuts you choose, so you can switch without taking your hands off the game.

The short answer

Under Shortcuts, choose a key for each scene. Press it while you play and the scene changes on the stream, even when the game has focus.

How to do it in Streamdzy

  1. Add each platform once under Settings, Go live and paste its stream key. The key is kept encrypted on your PC.
  2. Tick the places you want on and press Go live. Your PC encodes the show once and sends it to each one.
  3. Watch the scene, the chat and the connection in one window. Press a scene or an alert whenever you need it.
  4. Press Stop when you are done. The recording of the whole show is already saved on your PC.

What to know first

Your upload speed is the real limit: every place needs its own copy of your picture. The installer is for Windows; Mac and Linux builds are not published yet. Run the upload speed test before a long show.

Questions

Will the shortcuts work inside a game?

Yes. Shortcuts are set up to work while a game has the focus, and you can change them to keys that do not clash with your game.

Want all of this in one app?

Streamdzy is a free streaming and recording app for Windows: several cameras, your phone as a camera, going live to many places at once, and recording first so a bad connection never costs you the show.
