Nice setup!

OBS scenes is the killer feature for me, so it just works well. In addition the AFK one I've also set a couple of zoom levels that frame me better if I decide to slide my seat back a bit.

I even have scenes for sprint planning estimation sessions. 1-3-5-8 etc superimposed over my picture. :D (they are numbered buttons on the Streamdeck).

Aha now that's an interesting way to do it. I guess in my setup, and my room geometry, I don't need to generally have specific scenarios ready for, say, planning so just turning my stuff on through Zoom is fine.

I do love reading about all these setups though. I feel like so many tech companies and software engineers are new to remote work that these tips can go a long way to interfacing effectively with coworkers. At least in my case it was trial and error until I got what I wanted.

What's the latency like?

Also, do you know what keystrokes the Stream Deck actually sends? Is it some ctrl-alt-whatever combo, or MIDI, or what?
