I would cut off the numpad/direction key area so it doesn't take as much space.

I did that in my latest stream, it works much better.

Would love to see a top tier progamer do this.

Here's how I set up my stream on one monitor. I software capture both programs. However in the latest stream I did, I had to capture the area instead of directly capturing the virtual keyboard because it wasn't showing up as an option to capture.

You can select the keyboard (minisomething) that doesn't have the numpad.

I don't know about Starcraft, but I would love the shit out of this kind of technology for arcade stick on fighting games.

Starcraft isn't very execution heavy, it's more about how much you can do at the same time and your decision making combined.

I wish this wouldn't require the 2nd monitor somehow (maybe as a fake camera or something) which would work better, as I don't have a 2nd monitor...

Well, I beg to differ. Alot of people like to watch keyboard cameras on SC2 Streams. This IMO is better. I would especailly enjoy this while watching high APM players.

Having a look of the hand on the keybaord maybe, but watching what touchs are being pressed ?
I don't know.. you"re gonna see A and 1 2 3 4 being pressed a lot and it doesn't really teach you anything you didn't know.

Well it's certainly more informative than a webcam pointing at your keyboard, which is like the stupidest idea in the history of mankind.

Does your cursor not blink a ton when you allow it to capture layered windows? O.o I'm not sure if I did something wrong when I had it set up or not...

If anyone could just make a guide for how to do it with OBS I'd more than likely stream with it every time but the cursor blinking was too much for me.

I'd genuinely would enjoy it if pro's use this when they stream. Its another way for me to oogle and nerd out by watching them.

I've been streaming some games with two monitors. It's pretty cool I think. You can check it out here: http://www.twitch.tv/mndakota/new

Feel free to stick around and maybe watch some ladder games, and random Risk Legacy games.
You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call "failure" is not the falling down, but the staying down.

Well alot of people like Keyboard cams, and you don't learn anything there either. If anything you get a better view of how fast the player is going and actually pressing with this view.
