Newbie here, was wondering if there is a way to monitor video files (as a Media source) the same way Image sources are monitored? Optimally OBS would detect that a the local file has changed when it has been fully overwritten and then play the new file contents only once, leaving the content up with the last frame.

I'm writing an Android app to upload small video snippets that are overlayed (PiP style) on a live stream and if I can upload simple video files it will be a lot easier than creating a stream of some sort from the Android device (but if someone has a pointer to a library that can achieve a stream from a MediaProjection or VirtualDisplay, that would be great :) ).
