Multicam Keyboard Shortcuts Don't Work

PostFri May 16, 2025 5:44 am

It would be nice if a long-standing issue could be resolved, namely that the mouse has to be used to switch into and out of multicam mode as the keyboard shortcuts for this operation simply don't work.

I find my shortcut working here in Studio 20b3 for Windows.

(The Source Viewer has to be the active panel first.)

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.

Thank you for looking at this. It isn't necessary to select the source viewer when using the mouse: you simply click 'Multicam'. Have you tried the shortcuts for 'Offline' or 'Source'?

Just by clicking on the dropdown so you can select Multicam, you are making the Source Viewer the active panel. ;)

Ctrl+3 shortcut will do that as well.
