Elgato Streamdeck

05/06/19(Wed)15:20

Another handy item I didn't knew I needed. I wanted something like this even before my G13 died but I lack(ed) the knowledge of building it myself using a raspberry pi.
So when the thing was on sale I bought one.

I mostly use it for games to set keys or macros that I hardly use or find difficult to remember (age?). But it's a handy tool for starting up programs in windows or binding the million shortcuts in GIMP.

Save Image View Image

header=[Image Viewer] body=[The image viewer allows you to view the image full screen. You can also use the image viewer to zoom in or out.<br/>Instructions:<br/>Once the viewer is open you will see the image adjusted to your screen size. To close the image us the X button top right or left click on the image, double left click to close in zoom mode. To use the zoom feature us the zoom button top left. In zoom mode the bottom right of your screen will show an indicator of what part of the image you can see. You can use the scroll wheel of your mouse to zoom in and out. You can click and hold the left mouse button on the image and drag it to move the viewer around the zoomed image if it is larger than the screen size. You can exit zoom mode by clicking the zoom button top left to exit it, or exit the viewer completely with a double left click.]

>>35535 It would be complicated to make one. Each key would need a tiny LCD and microprocessor to control the LCD. That amounts to a shit-ton (that's a technical term for a lot) of work for a full keyboard. At some point some enterprising company will produce a tiny LCD with the all the controller electronics built in for a good price and perhaps then it'll be possible. Making a Streamdeck like device like yours would be simpler and not too difficult.

Can't you build a better one? You have it all. Plus a 3D printer.

>>35520 I'll bet that thing was pretty expensive.

>>35521 Those are the same reasons I don't have one :D

No fart noises as I don't stream or play online games. Plus I don't need buttons to produce those sounds ;)

I really like these. I wish we could have entire keyboards with lcd displays in each key. One day I think that might be quite normal.
I assume you have also done what everybody who buys one of these does, setup a profile for various fart noises :D
