Question / Help A possibile Addition?

[PifMeister]

I really like this software (easy to use, completly free), but still I miss 2 functions that one of your competitor has:
- The Option to load Video files (I have some video files that I use to run during breaks)
- A Telecaster (Whiteboard Overlay) Program, that allows me to draw lines when I commentate a Video.

Is there a way to add these Functions?

Thanks a lot and keep it up with the good work!

The first has been suggested many many times already and is already planned.

The second would probably have to be a plugin that someone needs to write. It might be tricky drawing on the preview window, but I don't know for sure.

Alternatively, you can sub region a MSPaint window to only show the white space and then use chroma key to filter out the white part. Not as elegant, and a bit insane, but it should work! XD

The problem with that is that you can't see what you're drawing over. If you're highlighting certain pathways on a map, or circling players or HUD icons, then it will be very inaccurate. :(

The lack of Whiteboard was on my top 3 list of reasons I didn't want to switch from Xsplit to OBS back in the day (the other two being no video file source, and no virtual camera output) but the performance became too much of an issue for me to wait any longer.
