Streaming adobe puppets using trigger and replay keys

Hi everyone,

I am using obs to window capture for my puppet into obs and then into my gaming lives.

 

However I have a problem with using replays and triggers in that adobe character seems to require being the active window but when streaming I need to be in a different gaming window.

    Hello.
    Currently, one solution is to use a MIDI keyboard and assign trigger keys to MIDI notes.
    This allows the triggers to remain active even when the Character Animator window is not in focus.
    Thank you.
