Ecamm vs. Elgato Stop Hotkey Conflicts in Seconds!

What I Found

If Ecamm Live changes scenes while your Loupedeck scrolls an Elgato Prompter script, the issue is a shared keyboard.

If you use Ecamm Live, Elgato Camera Hub, Elgato Prompter, and a Loupedeck together, you may run into a very specific but very annoying problem: trying to scroll your script can accidentally switch scenes in Ecamm Live.

The fix is to use BetterTouchTool on the Mac to catch the shared shortcut when Ecamm Live is active, then forward that shortcut to Elgato Camera Hub instead. In my case, the conflicting shortcuts were Control + Command + Page Up and Control + Command + Page Down.
