Question / Help Add audio tracks into OBS?

[solomonyo]

Hello there.

I've been looking around to see if this is possible or not, but so far I've had no luck. So why not ask? :)
My question is; Is it possible in any way to add Audio files to OBS? For me as a d3 player, whenever I get a legendary or something funny happens I'd like a sound to play.

Nope. No support for that, or playing video directly from scenes (for intros/outros/bumps) yet. Most use a soundboard application with the ability to use global hotkeys if all they need are toast-sounds.

There is a plugin in development for video file sources, but not for audio. I second Ferret's suggestion of making a sound board.

I may be retarded now, but how do you actually MAKE a soundboard? :p

For audio and vidio files..I just use programs. I finally got vlc video player to work the way I need it to. The method will require a second monitor in extended mode. I just play video commercials through VLC player..but set the capture to monitor capture...and select the monitor the program is running on...theres a reason to use monitor capture for vlc..now for audio files, I just use windows media player...like to play national Anthem recordings for my nascar Broadcasts. It will be much better when you can load this stuff directly..but it is a work around.

Advised to use window-capture instead of monitor capture if at all possible (to avoid the frame-lag that monitor cap tends to induce); works fine with Media Player Classic, haven't tried it with VLC.
