Game capture is only meant to capture games. Media players and other applications use DirectX and OpenGL in unexpected ways.

I know, i found program named vMix, but it too much expensive, but it works :) . It works as a webcam.
And that's why I'm looking for other free solutions.

VLC is great, but not stable :( . I have fully 30 FPS and after a while it falls on 10-15 FPS for 5-10 seconds.

Any other idea how to play video to OBS with external playlist? Or how to fix VLC?

Yes this works on 50% , playlist is working now as external but I can't pause video or change volume (when I change volume, playlist start again from the first video) .
I know, it's free solution, but with bad control while streaming.
