Just throwing out another random solution - have you tried game capture?

Also, I'm assuming you guys play fullscreen/fullscreen windowed.

The problem with Hot Virtual Keyboard is that it's running as an background process, not as a windowed program. so none of the OBS features can capture it. Xsplit can capture screen regions and this basically solves the problem.

But since most people are now streaming with OBS ( including me and i have a 2 year paid Xsplit license ) making a plugin for the hot virtual keyobard software would be amazing. If i had any knowledge on doing this i would so do it, but alas i'm not a coder.

I know this may be a stupid question, but how do you disable it from auto-running on start up? I tried the in-program settings and msconfig, but it's still starting up :l

In options>Theme if you check "Native style of the window" it will turn it into a normal window that OBS can capture with Window Capture. This prevents you from having to use slow ass windows 7 monitor capture I have yet to figure out how to make it not be always on top though, that's pretty annoying

edit: Saw an earlier post that basically said "If you play around with alt tab it eventually hides under SC2" this works, but is not elegant

you can capture a screen region just like xsplit, its just not as obvious. right click in the sources box, Add-software capture...keep monitor capture 1 on unless the virtual keyboard is on another monitor, check the sub-region box and click select region. its the exact same as screen region for xsplit. I've been using this method since first learning about the virtual keyboard http://www.twitch.tv/palomino_sc2 my keyboard randomly switches to korean ingame

Thx for that


If you use full screen windowed mode on sc2,you can just drag the keyboard out of the monitor.It works for me.
The only problem i have now is that i can't find a way to move the keyboard on stream.It always appears on the top-left of my monitor.

Well, if you are using OBS you just press Edit Scene and move things around. Click on the keyboard source in your sources box, this will outline it in red on your preview window. Move it around and resize it wherever you want.

Hey everybody, I just wanted to let you guys know that I am currently working on a keyboard display written using DirectX that can be used with game capture. I have a working prototype and I am really looking forward to bringing it to a releasable state.

Would love it if you would consider open source, I have tried 2 of the mentioned keyboard programs, but have found them very buggy and lagging my game/streaming.

Yup, definitely gonna be open source, however, this is my first program using Direct3D directly, so no promises on the prettiness of the code.

Times to times (and it seems only when SC2 is running too) some keys stay highlighted for some reason, like if I was keeping pressing it. For example if I ALT + F4 from SC2 to windows, the ALT and F4 keys stay highlighted.
Am I the only one ? Any idea what could be happening ?

This probably happens due to Alt+F4 being a special system call and it probably eats the messages to the program.
