    Screenshot timer

    Hi, is there a way, or a plugin for having a timer for taking a screenshot or several screenshots in OBS Studio for Mac? I guess if there is a time lapse function that take photos, it can work too and I can choose the photo I want/need? Thanks in advance, Marius :-)

    Change OBS Virtual Camera frame rate (fps)?
