Scene Transitions
Use transitions like fades, wipes, and zooms to make your scene changes a little more engaging. Want a bit more punch? Stinger and Luma transitions make scene changes uniquely yours. Go even further by customizing each transition per scene to fit your stream and utilize the Transition Manager for precise control over every scene switch.

Choose from various transitions such as fades, wipes, and more. Just click on the transition icon and select your preferred style.
Set transitions by clicking the drop-down menu right above your scene list.
The transition you selected will be used every time you switch between scenes.
Mark your frequently used transitions as favorites for quick access during your live streams.
Clicking on the ☆ icon sets the currently selected transition and timing as a favorite.
Favorite transitions can be accessed through a menu by clicking the ˅ arrow beside the ☆ icon as well as by right-clicking on specific scenes.
Stinger transitions use short video clips to add dynamic visuals between scenes. Perfect for emphasizing significant changes or segments in your stream.
Stinger transitions can have alpha transparency which allows content from the scenes to still be visible while the stinger plays. Only a few video formats support alpha transparency such as MOV and WEBM. Since MOV with alpha channels are usually large files, XSplit Broadcaster uses WEBM as the native format for stingers.
MOV videos and sequential PNG images can easily be converted to the native WEBM format and added to the Transitions menu using the Add Stinger wizard. Existing WEBM with alpha can also be used with the Add Stinger wizard to instantly add them to the Transitions menu.
Click on the Transitions drop-down menu then go to Stingers Transitions > Add transition…
Click to browse and select your source file.
You can change the Stinger name and Transition point if you prefer.

For WebM source files, click Add stinger.
For MOV and PNG source files, click Convert and add stinger.
XSplit will automatically convert MOV or PNG sequence files to a WEBM file.
You will be prompted once the conversion is complete and successfully added, and you can find your newly added stinger under the Stingers Transitions menu.
You can also convert MOV and sequential PNG files to a stinger compatible WEBM format using the Stinger Creator extension.
Luma transitions utilize black and white masks to create stylish effects. Ideal for creating professional-looking transitions without complex editing.

Take control of your scene transitions with the Transition Manager. This tool allows you to apply and manage specific scene-to-scene transitions, overriding global settings allowing you to tie your presentation better when switching scenes
The Transition Manager is available under the Tools menu and adding transition settings here will automatically override the global default for the chosen scenes.
For instance, while using a uniform Fade transition for several scenes, you can specifically designate a distinct transition for a “Final Scene” without the need to switch transitions or right-clicking to use a favorite transition.
The Transition Manager's override is disabled by default. Transitions set using Transition Manager takes priority even when manually selecting a Favorite Transition by right-clicking a scene button.
