A free, open-source Windows plugin that puts Apple Music playback, album art, track controls, and per-app volume on an Elgato Stream Deck.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-01 issue.

For: Windows Apple Music users with Stream Decks
Worth noticing: Its per-app volume control targets Apple Music’s Windows audio session, leaving system volume and other apps untouched.

Field notes

The setup has two routes: download the .streamDeckPlugin file and open it, or clone the repository and run the listed npm and Stream Deck commands. The page specifies Windows 10/11 and Stream Deck 6.5+, and describes compatibility with Stream Deck hardware embedded in a keyboard as well as standalone devices. Its implementation separates Windows API work into a small C# bridge queried by the Node/TypeScript plugin.
