Question / Help Anybody good with JSON and OBS?

[livejamie]

If my music player outputs the currently playing song in a JSON format like this

{
  "playing": true,
  "song": {
  "title": "Dark Pub",
  "artist": "ComputeHer",
  "album": "Chiptopia: The Best of 8 Bit Weapon & ComputeHer",
  "albumArt": "https://lh5.ggpht.com/_FFgEFVHjEhjZvYzJi8jxJS7RHl7fu2KKSlT3BNe4Aqo3Q-4zFovs3Ys0PE-bG84awb--0bD=s90-c-e100"
  },
  "rating": {
  "liked": false,
  "disliked": false
  },
  "time": {
  "current": 43279,
  "total": 176000
  },
  "songLyrics": null,
  "shuffle": "NO_SHUFFLE",
  "repeat": "NO_REPEAT"
}

Is there a good way to get it to display on my stream as text format as "Artist - Song"

One (really techy) way is to use node.js to generate a web page from said info and load the URL into the Browser Source.

Not the best option if you want to keep the same music player, but Foobar2000 has a 'Now Playing Simple' plugin that allows you to specify (and do very basic scripting) output to a text file. That's what I use for my music overlay.
