Richard Gagnon said:
I have done several modifications to the script to accommodate timezone in the format specifiers and appending st, nd, rd th to the day of month.

Richard,
THANK YOU so much for your additions to this plugin! (And thanks to the original author too!)
If you have a moment, could you add a way to drop the leading zero from the day and month?
Much thanks!

oops, I meant hour, day and month ;-)

avgjoefriday · Oct 26, 2021

Here is a new and improved version that includes Richard's additions as well as the ability to get the hour, day, month without the leading zero. Also someone had asked in an earlier question how to get a blank line between the parts, you can use %n to get a new line in your string.

Best!

Is it possible to manually set a timezone? IE I'm in EST (-4) but want to display PST (-7)

TheNokzz · Nov 11, 2021

Is it possible to change the language to german?

albinou · Nov 15, 2021

TheNokzz said:

As @erikfdev mentioned, you need to change the locale in order to change the language. Update the start of the set_date_time() function with something like this (where "de_DE.UTF-8" is the German locale):

Lua:

function set_datetime_text(source, format)
   -- save the current locale "time" setting
    local locale_backup = os.setlocale(nil, "time")
   -- set our own "time" locale setting
    os.setlocale("de_DE.UTF-8", "time")
    
    local text = os.date(format)
    -- restore the original "time" locale setting
    os.setlocale(locale_backup, "time")
    
    local settings = obs.obs_data_create()
    ...
    ...

PS: I only noticed all this discussion about my script. Thanks guys for your reactions!

fruv said:

Yes, with a script update. Indeed, os.date() can be called with a second argument (the date to display, in seconds). This date can obtained with a call to os.time().

So if you want to display time at PST (-7), which the same than UTC-8 I guess, you can replace the os.date() call with:

Lua:

local text = os.date(format, os.time() * - 8 * 60 * 60)

Not tested, but I guess it would work.

Did you to use a "\n" into the date & time format? ("\n" is a line break).

And in order to get the Indonesian date, you should change the locale (to "id_ID" I guess ?).

Using \n still can't. What is the solution?
where in the lua script change or add the "id_ID"? I can't find it, fyi I'm not a programmer and don't understand coding.

Hello, I am a Spanish speaker and I am using a translator. Excuse me if I'm writing wrong.

This script is impressive and thanks to previous comments I was able to put it in Spanish, so thank you very much to everyone who has contributed to this script.

Well, I would like to ask if is there any way to create a variant that displays a personalized message depending on the day of the week?

E.g. Sundays: Sunday Mass || Thursdays: Eucharistic Thursday. (I help in a church).

I know it would have to be something like

Code:

if "variable" == "value"
%ñ = "Sunday Mass"

but I don't know what that variable is or even if that's how it is written in this language. I appreciate any help.

Hi all,

thank you for this great piece of code! So helpful!

Now I'd like to even show milliseconds in the livestream - is there any chance this script could do that?

All the best,

KatsuoStreams · Aug 11, 2024

Hello

I would like some help with my script.

I wanted to put it in a way that would be...

hour - minutes - seconds

weekday name - day . abbreviated month name . current year

Because I am Brazilian, I don't know if there is a way to fix this, and how I could fix it,

Also, when I change the code, it tends to crash and close OBS.

I would appreciate any feedback, as this item will be very useful in my live streams.
