Companion

Bitfocus Companion enables the reasonably priced Elgato Streamdeck to be a professional shotbox surface for a huge amount of different presentation switchers, video playback software and broadcast equipment.

You don't need an actual stream deck to use it. Companion both comes with a builtin stream deck emulator, a webpage for touch screens and the ability to trigger buttons via OSC, TCP, UDP, HTTP, WebSocket and ArtNet. It does the same job, just without the buttons.

  • Button designer - Either with colored text or upload your own images
  • Feedback - Devices can give feedback to buttons to display state
  • Stacked actions - Run multiple actions from the same button
  • Delayed actions - Set delay time individually for each action
  • Multi device - Have multiple stream decks connected at once
  • Web admin - Configure the system from any browser in the network
  • Web buttons - Virtual web buttons for mobile/tablet/browser
  • Latching - Separate actions for key down and up, and ability to latch/toggle
  • Streamdeck Plugin - Use companion buttons in the native stream deck application
