Almost a Workaround: Browser Source
Used the Marquee tag within a html document and had unlimited text scrolling perfectly.
Only issue was when i went live, the text would be blank and intermittently disappearing (even with "Enabled Browser Source Hardware Acceleration" disabled - so couldn't rely on this.
The HTML:
Setup:
OBS Studio: 26.1.1 x64
Base & Output Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Streaming Encoder: x264
Text (GDI+) Properties:
Name: DonationList1
Font: Arial
Font Size: 48
Read from file: ENABLED
File is synced with google drive to allow multiple users to update the document.
File has over 3011 characters.
File content consists of: Single Line, contains pipe symbols, "|", Open/close brackets "()", Full Stop "." and names of viewers)
Use Custom Text Extents: Disabled
Scroll Filter Properties:
Horizontal Speed: 25
Vertical Speed: 0
Limit Width: Disabled
Limit Height: Disabled
Loop: Enabled
Any help would be much appreciated.
