#streaming control

Elgato is adding to its streaming peripherals lineup by announcing the Elgato Stream Deck Pedal. The Stream Deck Pedal is a pad that has three pedals you can press with your food and can control software, and hardware. The Elgato Stream Deck Pedal provides hands-free control for every action that is available on the standard Elgato Stream Deck. Elgato says that the Stream Deck Pedal can be used in-game as an extra set of controls, in presentations to move through slides, and with various editing software. A new accessory, the Viewfinder Remote, also expands usability by allowing live preview, framing control, zoom adjustment, and recording from a distance—useful for solo creators or mounted setups. In my testing under uneven and dim environments, the camera was able to retain detail while keeping noise under control. In low-light conditions, images remain usable with controlled noise levels and acceptable detail retention. One of the more practical additions is the Viewfinder Remote, which enables full remote control of the camera, including live preview and framing adjustments—ideal for solo shooting setups.
