The Stream Deck Plus is ready to get dialed in.

When we reviewed Elgato’s Stream Deck Plus two years ago, our big complaint was the lack of plug-in support for its dials. If you’re still struggling with that, the new 6.8 software update might help.

Along with easy setup swapping, it adds Action Trigger to assign actions intended for the Deck’s buttons to dials, even if a plug-in lacks native support.
