OBS Current Transition

Runs on: Backend — reads state from the backend's OBS WebSocket bridge.

The OBS Current Transition data node returns the name and duration (in milliseconds) of the transition currently set as the OBS default — the one applied between scene changes when no per-pair override is in effect. Each time a downstream node requests its values, it returns the up-to-date transition state.

Outputs

NameTypeDescription
Transition NamestringThe name of the currently active OBS scene transition
Duration (ms)numberThe current transition duration in milliseconds

Example

You want a flow to remember the active transition before temporarily swapping it. Read the values from the OBS Current Transition node into flow variables, run your custom transition for a single scene change, then restore the originals via OBS Set Default Transition. This lets you do one-off transitions without disrupting the streamer's normal setup.
