SO I'm wondering, I sure there is but not sure how easy it would be to edit the exe to ask for a folder location of the videos rather than just having the exe in the same folder?

Thank You for posting this. I had an idea but did not know how to carry it out. For those still having issues you will follow the instructions to install the OBS plug-ins but to trigger it I use triggerfyre which you can find at https://overlays.thefyrewire.com/. You will have to have OBS open and in triggerfyre connect to OBS then you will trigger a source select the source that you created for the random video and set the rules for what you want it to do. I am doing mine through a channel point redemption but you can also just do a command. Mine is working perfectly

Works great for me, that said can I be greedy and ask if its possible to do the same with audio files too? I know I could convert audio to mp4 for example and use it as is but if there is any cleaner method it would be cool to know, thanks.

How do you like this: This is automated. uses info in the file name to fill in the text fields with album,song etc
