  1. We've got a brand new Elgato Stream Deck+ that takes 7 seconds to wake up after the Mac wakes up. We've swapped cables, moved the USB-C from a dock to direct into the Mac Studio, we've tried it on a different Mac, and we've uninstalled and reinstalled the Stream Deck app, but it's still 7 seconds. Looks like Elgato is going to give us a warranty repair, but do you have any other ideas on a way to fix this?

  2. Elgato Stream Deck hat die Smartphone-App auf Freemium umgestellt! Mit 12 Buttons (= 2 x 6) lassen sich so PC-Operationen, Makros usw. auslösen. Unter iOS lassen sich die Funktionen mit Sprachbefehlen verknüpfen.

    (Umstellung vielleicht schon länger her, aber heute durch Zufall entdeckt - früher gab es nur Abo, das meist unnötig ist.)

  3. looks like something changed in the latest discord client to break the legacy Stream Deck plugin.

    Fortunately, there's a native OpenAction plugin. The setup lists out everything you need to do; but discord wouldn't let me set the redirect unless I used
    127.0.0.1 instead of localhost.

    If you're using the flatpak like me, you will also likely need to close out the OpenDeck app and run (or use flatseal):

    flatpak override me.amankhanna.opendeck --filesystem=xdg-run/discord-ipc-0:rw
    in order to complete the setup so the plugin can talk on the RPC pipe.

  4. RE: mastodon.social/@metawops/1164

    Und da #WLED ein #API hat, hab ich gleich mal eins meiner #StreamDeck Kästchen zur Steuerung der Matrix mit eingebunden. 😉 Natürlich alles mit #Bitfocus #Companion gemacht. 👌

  5. Single button press to start or stop a Portainer docker stack

    A Portainer stack (related group of Docker containers) can be started and stopped remotely with the literal push of a button on a Stream Deck. Or you could create a desktop icon that does the same thing. There are many ways to do this as long as a s ...continues

  6. Put together a new action for the Capture One Stream Deck plugin mostly while on set today. It shows the current camera settings, and optionally whether they're high or low from a saved value.

  7. My Stream Deck is dieing and I am not replacing it

    Back in 2022, I paid $115 for a gently used Elgato Stream Deck. At the time, I was spending two to three hours a day in Zoom meetings (something that has changed significantly since), and I convinced myself that having physical controls within arm’s reach would be a real productivity boost. In theory, it made sense: quick access to mute, camera toggles, scene changes, maybe even a few custom shortcuts. In practice, it turned out not to be useful at all. I assumed I’d be able to embed my video and audio controls in it with minimal friction, but that proved far more frustrating than expected. I was deep in optimizing my work-from-home setup, and this was one of those purchases that felt smart at the moment but missed the mark entirely.

    I honestly couldn’t tell you the last time I actually used it. About six months ago, the screens on the buttons started glitching – not catastrophically, just enough to be irritating every time I noticed. This would normally be the point where I’d start researching replacements, comparing models, and talking myself into another upgrade. Instead, I think I’m just going to let it die. When it finally gives up completely, I’ll dispose of it and move on. Not every piece of tech needs a replacement cycle, and this one never really earned its place on my desk in the first place.

  8. My monthly round up post for February is *finally* out. A new #Alfred workflow, a new #hamradio antenna, a #StreamDeck plugin update, and the usual forum stuff, recommendations and additional curiosities. And still 100% free, though a coffee is always a tasty bonus ☕🤩

  9. Has anyone used one of the aliexpress #streamdeck clones on linux?

    I see software support for actual stream decks but I don’t know if it’s possible to get a clone going.

  10. It seems I ditched #Spotify just in time.

    They just sent an email about a development blog post from February which nobody read, that they are going to limit what you can do with their API effective March 9.

    I used to have 3 apps in "development" mode, allowing me to access it from my Elgato #StreamDeck, #HomeAssistant and a local website to conveniently have it integrated where I needed it.

    I guess they don't like that anymore, stating that "[Development mode] is intentionally limited and should not be relied on as a foundation for building or scaling a business on Spotify".

    I read that as "If you do not intend to make us any additional money, GTFO."

    The fact that having API access at all requires a premium account now reinforces that impression.

    Well, I do not intend to build a business with Spotify. So farewell, greedy capitalist platform.

    It was fun until the AI music started to creep in.

  11. Ach verdammt, das war so praktisch.

    Jetzt muss ich dann wieder das #Teams-Fenster suchen und ihm den Tastaturfokus geben, um mein Mikro an- und auszuschalten.

  12. With January 2026 in the rear view mirror it is time for me to put out my usual round up. January had…

    - A little scripting on the blog.
    - I finally updated my Apple device OSes to 26.
    - I’ve been fixing, creating, and enhancing things in #Alfred workflows.
    - My #Mac #Automation #StreamDeck plugin has had several updates.
    - I made an amateur/ham radio antenna.
    - There are also some software recommendations too.

  13. Ist schon krass, wie schnell es draußen total warm geworden ist… Ich hab mir die Temperaturen mal aufs #Streamdeck gepackt. Wenn man so einen Unsinn schon besitzt, muss man ihn auch nutzen 🤭

  14. We are a few days into 2026, so time for me to get my final 2025 monthly update out.
    This time there’s #DEVONthink, the usual forums peek, some Elgato #StreamDeck related bits, #3DPrinting of a #HomeRacker setup, a MenuBox GitHub repo, some #HamRadio related bits, an #Obsidian Automators vault update, and some handy software links.

    We're back to a long one with lots of updates!

  15. What's your favorite button/dial/function on your Stream Deck? Asking for myself, a noob.

    I was going to say pick only one, but then it turned into top three, then started getting on the edge of a MySpace top eight, but in no particular order. It's totally a top eight.

    1. Volume (knob)
    2. international Time (folder)
    3. Weather (folder)
    4. Screenshot
    5. !lurk meeting command for Twitch
    6. Multi-Action to prep for streaming
    7. Switch Profiles (knob)
    8. Cricut/Sublimation/3D Printing Virtual Stream Decks

    I already have like eight profiles and it's only be a few weeks.

  16. I'm so happy about how well this works!

  17. Was erlaube #Microsoft?!? Die #Teams Integration für das #Streamdeck wird Ende 2025 entfernt. Hat jemand eine Alternative, wie das mit dem Streamdeck in Zukunft gehen könnte? @ragnar vielleicht?

  18. I got so fed up with #elgato's #streamdeck app that I decided to hack my own with #pyobjc, blackjack and... #Copilot. Once I've implemented a couple more things (not sure I need pages, but generating icons from SFSymbol and awareness of foreground app seem useful) I'll put it up on GitHub.
