What’s new in Elgato Studio 2.0 Beta 3?
🆕 Virtual Prompter
You can now create a Virtual Prompter you can put on any display. Add one from the sidebar, then pick the mode that fits your setup:
- Display mode shows your script full screen on any connected display.
- Floating mode puts your script in a window you can move and resize anywhere, and it stays where you left it.
- Notch mode tucks a slim strip of your script into the top of the screen.
📑 Table of Contents
Headings in your script become a table of contents inside the Prompter operator preview. It highlights the section you are on and takes you to any heading with a click.
🎯 Crosshair Overlay
Turn on a crosshair to mark exactly where your camera lens sits, so you know where to look while you read. Set its position once and it stays there.
🗣️ Voice Sync in Spanish and French
Voice Sync 2.0 now follows your script in Spanish and French, alongside English and German. Pick your language in Voice Sync setup and Elgato Studio downloads the matching model.
⏳ Beta Expiration
This beta build stops working after October 16, 2026. Install a newer beta version or the full release before then to keep using Elgato Studio.
