Stream Apps and Devices

Stream apps and devices

Stream apps

Open Apps > Stream apps in the left rail. Each app has its own tab with setup steps.

App	How to connect
OBS Studio	In OBS open Tools > WebSocket Server Settings, enable the server, and copy the port and password into Cuebot. You can add several OBS connections (for example a second PC); steps and triggers pick one by name.
Streamlabs Desktop	In Streamlabs open Settings > Remote Control, click the QR code to show the details, and copy the port and API token.
Meld Studio	In Meld open File > Preferences > Advanced and switch on "Allow remote connections".
Lumia Stream	In Lumia open Settings > API, switch on "Enable Developers API" and copy the token.
PolyPop	Connects to PolyPop's local API.
mtion studio	Nothing to set up while mtion runs; add external triggers to your clubhouse and use them in the "Send trigger" step.
T.I.T.S.	In T.I.T.S. switch the API on in Settings.
OBSBOT cameras	Through OBSBOT Center's OSC server, or straight to a Tail 2 / Tail Air.

With OBS connected, actions can switch scenes, show and hide sources, change filters and text, start and stop streaming or recording, save replays, and more; OBS events (scene changed, stream started...) are triggers.

Stream Deck

Two ways, use either:

• With the Elgato Stream Deck app: install the Cuebot plugin (Input > Stream Deck). Its buttons run actions, toggle them, set global variables and fire the Stream Deck Action trigger. Cuebot's Stream Deck steps change a key's title, state, image and value.
• Without the Elgato app (USB): Cuebot drives the Stream Deck directly, which also works on Linux. On Linux, install the udev rule 70-cuebot-streamdeck.rules once (see Installation).

Decks (buttons in any browser)

Input > Decks (the Input icon in the left rail) builds pages of buttons that open in any browser: a phone, a tablet or an OBS dock. Pressing a button runs its action. Steps can change button titles, colours, icons, values and pages while Cuebot runs.

Other devices

Device	Page	What it does
MIDI controllers	Input > Input > MIDI	Notes, controls and program changes are triggers; actions can send MIDI.
Game controllers	Input > Input > Game controllers	Buttons and sticks are triggers (via SDL3); rumble and lights on supported pads.
Hotkeys	Automation > Hotkeys	Global keyboard shortcuts as triggers.
Elgato lights	Apps > Apps & devices	Key Light, Ring Light and Light Strip: power, brightness and colour from actions.
GoXLR	Apps > Apps & devices	Through GoXLR Utility: faders, mutes, effects and profiles.
Elgato Wave Link	Apps > Apps & devices	Mixes, levels and mutes.

On Linux, PlayStation and Switch controllers need read access to /dev/hidraw* for rumble and lights: install your distribution's steam-devices or game-devices-udev rules.
