OBS Lua Visibility Timer 1.0

Reviews 3.14 star(s) 14 reviews

This would be perfect if it reacted to the show/hide transitions you can set on sources. Sadly it just cuts hard away.
It does what it says on the tin.

However, it would be much better if you could have the timed event 'activate' or 'deactivate' a source OR a filter. This way source and/or filter transitions would be affected. For example the latest version of OBS has source transitions, in addition the plugin 'movetransitions' allows you to create a filter that can 'animate' other filters.
Seems fine in its own terms, but doesn't really do what I want. It works by making a source 'visible' after a specified delay for a specified period of time. However, this is not 'visible' in the OBS sense, which has to do with activating/deactivating the source. As a result, a problem arises with dynamic graphics, like scrolling text.

So, for example, if you have a source that scrolls a block of text in from the bottom of the window and out of the top of the window that takes 5 seconds to complete, using the script with, say, a 10 second delay will result in nothing being shown (the text has already scrolled out of the window 5 seconds before the source was made 'visible').

What I would really like is an activation timer, rather than a 'visibility' timer.
