Run app on the start of stream

[micechal]

Hi. An option to launch selected exe file or a script when starting stream would be cool. Real-life example:
I've got a simple program which saves some text to txt file, for example Spotify. I've managed my scene and it looks like I want it, and then I have to manually start Spotify and stream. My suggestion is to add a function so user can start his app in the same time as stream starts. Would be cool also to have an option of delaying it, but it isn't neccesary.

Just make a batch file or something that opens both programs.

No, he means when he presses the "Start Streaming" button.

Ah. Still, this is functionality that doesn't really need to be in OBS. Just open the things you need when you need them.

In the future I might add some sort of scripting to allow you to do advanced stuff like this that you can program, but for the time being it's low priority unfortunately
