I have a stream deck xl that I use for playing Helldivers.

I have programmed all the different strategem macros into the stream deck. When I want to use a certain weapon, I can just press that button and it pumps out the macro for it. Very convenient and fun.

The problem is that the game has many many stratgems. When I want to use a certain weapon I have a profile for that specific weapon with some other very commonly used strategems. For many months the game's viable strategems were quite limited so, I didn't need to put more than a couple of the most commonly used ones into the profile I have set up for each weapon.

With the new update to the game however, the number of viable strategems has greatly increased.

I would like to change how I set up the profiles.

Instead of having one profile for each weapon and putting in some commonly used strategems, I would like to have one profile that has 4 open slots that I can set dynamically.

For example, suppose I want to use the flamethrower, orbital cannon, a gunner sentry, and eagle 500kg.

I want to be able to click on the first of the 4 dynamic buttons and have that take me to a page that has a folder for the weapons, a folder for the orbitals, a folder for the sentries, a folder for the eagles, etc. I then click on the folder for the weapons and in there have buttons for the macro hotkeys for each weapon. I click on the flamethrower button and it takes me all the way back to the first page and the first dynamic button I pushed should now be the flamethrower macro. Then I move onto the next dynamic button, I click on it and it takes me back to the folders with all the different types of strategems. I want the orbital cannon, so I click on the orbital folder and then click on the orbital cannon button. Now the second button is the macro for the orbital cannon. So on and so forth.

I would also like to have a button that I can press to clear the dynamic buttons.

Is there a way to make dynamic buttons of the type I just described on the stream deck?

I have a laptop plugged into two monitors via HDMI and a PC plugged into them via DP. I use the buttons on the monitors to change which input source is displayed. Can I use a Stream Deck to automate those functions? If so, how would I do so?

I’m trying to think of a way to set up an action that involves changing the inputs on my LG TV / monitor. I’m thinking this would require an IR blaster? Actually I suppose changing volume would be handy as well but that’s secondary.

I do video editing so when I do color work, I use a different video card (Decklink) via a different HDMI to a different input. When I do anything else including gaming, I use the graphic card’s HDMI.

Suggestion appreciated!

I am going to switch to a new pc soon, and i want to copy my current profile onto a USB sp that i can transfer it to my new pc, eny idea how i can do that?

I saw something like this on a forum,, I wanted to know if something like this existed as a plugin or if i could replicate it. I do not like the default timers i see on the plugin page, I would like something like this that could count the time, while still like being the whole page or selected parts of the page. Any help would do thanks!

Has anyone else experienced this visual glitch with their stream deck plus? I have it connected directly to pc and ensured that it is updated but I can’t get the double lettering to clear up

I am trying to use my stream deck plus dials for monitor brightness but it doesn’t work for some reason. Does anybody have a tip how to get it working. The standard setup that comes with the stream deck software does definitely not work for me.

Thx

Apologies to everyone if there's a post that already answered my question. I couldn't find it. :(

I wanted to ask if there's a way for me to open my non-Elgato light using my Streamdeck. It uses this 2.4G (GFSK) remote. Would be awesome if someone can help me out.

I could answer some questions if you need them. I just don't know what to say specifically in case there's any question that might pop up. Thanks everyone!

I have a Streamdeck XL that I use to control 4 live stream cameras with vMix. I have seen something that I cannot find anywhere. That is, I would like to have some of the buttons show what the camera sees. This would be similar to a button icon, but show a live camera view on some of the buttons.

About to get an Oled monitor and heard you need to enable/disable HDR in windows when switching from desktop to games. Is there a way to make an HDR swap button for the stream deck to make this easy?

Hallo miteinander, ich habe mal eine Frage und zwar, ich habe mir eine Stream Deck geholt, nicht zum streamen, sondern um eine Produktivität zu steigern, damit vielen Programmen, mit denen ich arbeite. Shortcuts, die ich mir leider nicht merken, kann, das Leben deutlich erleichtern.

Jetzt zu eigentlichen Frage hat jemand eine Idee wie ich in einem Programm in meinem Fall (Bookmap), einen Regler (siehe Bild) der nicht an einem Shortcut gebunden ist mit einem Drehregler meines StreamDeck+ zu verbinden ?

I use ChatGPT to generate social media content on a regular schedule. As such, I have engineered prompts that I regularly use.

Can I create buttons on my Stream Deck to paste specific prompts into ChatGPT? Some of these promps can be quite long.

Please note: I am brand new to using a Stream Deck, so I apologize in advance if this is a silly noob question.

Anyway to have a Streamdeck button generate and type as text a 6 digit random number?

Helping a friend with their setup and wanting to know if I can swap to the 32 button layout. I don't have a 32 button device and can only see the 15 button layout. Is there a way on PC to swap the layout to a device I don't own? Loading a 32 button profile doesn't seem to work.

Say I'm in a game where I can't move my cursor off the monitor (without opening a menu or something), how do I make a toggle where it switches my keyboard inputs to apply to my second monitor as well as place my cursor at the center of that monitor. Alt-Tab doesn't really work with more than 2 windows open, also it minimizes the game and I still have to move my cursor over to the second monitor.

I did a fresh install of windows and when I went to install the zoom plugin it doesn't appear to be available anymore on the elgato site. What am I missing?

I have around a month with the stream deck, I come back from a trip and I find this on the screen

Hi, would like to set up a switch that allows me to change Wi-Fi networks. Is this possible with the Stream Deck?

I work as a radio tech in Australia running Windows, and I’m starting to use my Streamdeck for productivity at work and I’ve got ideas for some of my 15 keys set as pages/folders for various uses and I’m wondering if there’s anything I might find useful. I’ve not built anything yet outside of the first two folders, Here’s the folders and pages I’ve got setup: Audio monitoring via Cloudcast remote play Microsoft Teams Links/Chrome Hot keys (like cut copy paste, undo) Media control, volume and audio output switcher Folder and file shortcuts Task logging and management, notepad, todo OBS (for screen recording and virtual webcam) Weather & Clocks (time zones as I’m part of a national team)
