I've set up OBS to work with Twitch. It's great and everything works well.

What i want to do is create an Intermission scene (for when i need a break or whatever) where i am AFK for a short while.

On this intermission scene i want to be able to play videos from my own YouTube channel playlist. These are videos that i made myself in the past (and will continue to do so) and uploaded to YouTube.

Essentially, how do i embed my YouTube videos into OBS so that it streams onto Twitch during an intermission?

What plugins do i use etc.

Thanks guys!

You can't embed them natively.
Download them and use the Video Source plugin.

Thanks, it's my own content so should be fine i suppose, IF it were possible to do so. But based on your comment, it seems i can't.

Ok, this means that i need to keep a copy of the videos i upload to YouTube; i normally delete them.

Is there a plugin i can use on OBS that allows me to create a playlist of videos to play? Assuming i have 10 videos i want to play in sequence in a folder on my computer.
