This is an older release. The current version is always at releases/latest.

Video Outputs

  • Fixed: with several displays connected, the last ones in Connected Displays could be cut
    off at the bottom of the Screen tab, out of reach of the scroll (seen on a Mac with a projector
    plugged in). The list now opens the Screen tab, above Display & Raster, and always has room for
    three displays, so the one an output is on and two more are in view without scrolling.

Guided tour

  • On a single screen, the step that turns the output on no longer leaves the output covering the
    desk and the tour. The output still fills the screen, and says so; any key or click puts it in
    a small window in the corner of the desk, and the tour carries on. With a second screen the
    step runs as before.

Control surfaces

Surface File How
Stream Deck Deckboy-1.0.0.streamDeckPlugin Double-click it.
Bitfocus Companion Deckboy-companion-module-1.0.5.zip Unzip it somewhere permanent, then point Companion's developer modules path at the folder containing it. INSTALL.txt inside has the three steps.

First run

Deckboy is free software and is not code-signed, so the OS does not recognise the publisher. One time only:

  • macOS — if it says the app is damaged: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Deckboy.app
  • Windows — SmartScreen may appear: More info → Run anyway

Deckboy is free, open-source cue-based media playback and show control for live video — clips, slides and live sources on one cue list, out to a screen, NDI, SRT or Blackmagic SDI, with a stream and a recording running at the same time and presenter view on its own display, driven from a Stream Deck, Bitfocus Companion, OSC, MIDI or LTC timecode.
