PowerStreamDeck A Linux and Windows compatible UI for the Elgato Stream Deck.

This project is a fork of the project streamdeck-linux-gui, a fork and drop-in replacement for streamdeck_ui, which was abandoned after its original owner disappeared.

All credit to the orignal authors, and the many contributors to the project.

Key Features

• Linux AND Windows Compatible: Enables usage of Stream Deck devices (Original, MK2, Mini and XL) on Linux and Windows.
• Adding more features to the original adding advanced features to design powerful, psuedo-script based UIs using commands to manage pages and button states.
• Multi-device: Enables connecting and configuring multiple Stream Decks on one computer.
• Brightness Control: Supports controlling the brightness from both the configuration UI and buttons on the device itself.
• Configurable Button Display: Icons + Text, Icon Only, and Text Only configurable per button on the Stream Deck.
• Multi-Action Support: Run commands, write text and press hotkey combinations at the press of a single button on your Stream Deck.
• Button Pages: streamdeck_ui supports multiple pages of buttons and dynamically setting up buttons to switch between those pages.
• Auto Reconnect: Automatically and gracefully reconnects, in the case the device is unplugged and replugged in.
• Import/Export: Supports saving and restoring Stream Deck configuration.
• Drag/Drop: Move buttons by simply drag and drop.
• Drag/Drop Image: Configure a button image by dragging it from your file manager onto the button.
• Auto Dim: Configure the Stream Deck to automatically dim the display after a period of time. A button press wakes it up again.
• Animated icons: Use an animated gif to liven things up a bit.
• Runs under systemd: Run automatically in the background as a systemd --user service.
• Stream Deck Pedal: Supports actions when pressing pedals.

Known issues

• pip package is not yet available for the current state of the project. Please install from source, currently trying to find a better way to provide the package.
• Streamdeck uses pynput for simulating Key Presses but it lacks proper support for Wayland. Generally your results will be good when using X (Ubuntu/Linux Mint). This thread may be useful.
• Key Press or Write Text does not work on Fedora (outside of the streamdeck itself), which is not particularly useful. However, still do a lot with the Command feature.
• Some users have reported that the Stream Deck device does not work on all on specific USB ports, as it draws quite a bit of power and/or has strict bandwidth requirements. Try a different port.
• If you are executing a shell script from the Command feature - remember to add the shebang at the top of your file, for the language in question. #!/bin/bash or #!/usr/bin/python3 etc. The streamdeck may appear to lock up if you don't under some distros.
