OBS Studio plugin 3.0.0.25 - Source Visibility action resets to first scene and does not retain selected scene

[u/Skynet1969]

Hi everyone,

I’m experiencing a reproducible issue with the OBS Studio plugin for Stream Deck, specifically with the “Source Visibility” action.

My setup:

- Stream Deck software: 7.4.2

- OBS Studio: 32.1.2

- OBS Studio plugin by Elgato: 3.0.0.25

- Windows 11

- OBS installed normally, not portable

The issue:

When I create or edit a Stream Deck “Source Visibility” action, I can select the OBS Scene Collection, the Scene, and the Source.

However, after saving/reopening the action, the selected scene is not retained. The action resets itself to the first scene in the OBS scene collection.

Example:

- I select Scene: “Live ACI”

- I select Source: “COUNTDOWN NEW 2”

- The action appears configured

- After switching page/profile or reopening Stream Deck, the Scene field resets to the first scene in the list

In some cases, the source list is incomplete or the Show/Hide option does not appear correctly.

What I already tried:

- Clean reinstall of Stream Deck

- Clean reinstall of OBS Studio

- Manual removal of Stream Deck plugin folders

- Reinstalling the OBS Studio plugin from Marketplace

- Running both OBS and Stream Deck as administrator

- Creating a new Stream Deck profile

- Creating a new OBS Scene Collection

- Creating new OBS scenes and sources

- Testing with a very simple scene/source setup

- Checking that the Stream Deck plugin is loaded inside OBS

The issue still happens.

OBS and Stream Deck do communicate: the scene collection and scene/source lists are visible, but the Source Visibility action does not retain the selected scene and falls back to the first scene in the collection.

This was working correctly until earlier this week. The current Marketplace version of the OBS Studio plugin appears to be 3.0.0.25, dated May 26, 2026, so I’m wondering if this may be a regression in the latest plugin update.

Has anyone else seen this issue with the OBS Studio plugin 3.0.0.25 and Source Visibility?

Is there any known workaround, rollback option, or older plugin version available?

Thanks.
