Dynamic Text scroller - Scroll text without the limitations of OBS GDI+ Text Scroll

Program to load text from a text file and scroll the text across the screen from right to left.

The program checks every 3 seconds to see if the text file has changed and reloads it if needed.

You can have two different animations to indicate the text has changed.

I use it to display a ticker tape scrolling across the big screen tv at a football (soccer) match. It shows the league scores from games being played around the UK. When the text file changes (a team has scored) a graphic is...

DrAlbany updated Dynamic Text scroller with a new update entry:

Small update

Removed the error message popping up when it can't find the text file.
This sometimes happens when the file is being saved from a network share.

The software would see the text file had changed, but the save hadn't finished and the software couldn't read the file.

Hi DrAlbany,

Thanxs for your tools, i'm a new with this OBS. May i know how we can put/install this tool on OBS?

I found "text scroll 01.exe" on this tools folder, it's have to separately run by double click on it or somewhere i have to click on OBS software?

Thanxs

Hi...,

It's a standalone program.

You capture the screen it creates.

What program are you using to write to the txt file from RSS feeds?

 

[DrAlbany]

Sorry for the late response...

I don't use RSS... But anything that can write to a text file... you could even do it manually with notepad.

I actually use a database programming software called Visual FoxPro to create the text file.

DrAlbany updated Dynamic Text scroller with a new update entry:

V0.3 Smoother scrolling and now 99 alerts

I've updated my text scroller to 60hz refresh rate which has a smoother text scroll.

I've also updated the design so you can now have 99 different alerts.

Any questions or problems don't hesitate to contact me.

Hello, I'm testing your program and I have a problem. I downloaded it and I don't know in which file the text should be placed so that it appears on the bar. Can you help?

Hi guys...,

For some reason when using the software it will use the settings in:-

C:\Users\[user profile name]\AppData\Local\AGKApps\Leo Software\textscroll03\media

I've tried a few different things to sort it but it's the game engine I've used that messes it up.

I'm working on a new version using a different engine.

Hope this helps...

If not let me know and I will see what I can do to help.

Hey Guys!

I am farely new to OBS Streamlabs and wondering how do I implement this into my stream?
When creating a scene, where do I add this?
Do I have to download the file then implement as a text?

If anyone can take the time to run this by me (with a very beginner type of explanation) that would be truly helpful and appreciated! Will follow and subscribe to your channels/socials for all your hassle! Many thanks!

Would it be possible to have this scroller display streamlabels from multiple text files so they could scroll? For example, show last donation, last subscriber, total # of subscriptions? Something along those lines.

In a word, no :)
For the values you want to display, how are they saved?

HI... Sorry for the really late response... Within OBS is a facility to capture a window from another program. You would download the program, set it up (look at the readme file) and run the program. The program then displays the text scrolling, then you would add the Windows Capture within OBS and it will then display on OBS.

Hope this helps.
