Hi all,
I made a tally system for OBS, by using the OBS scripting in Lua. The script controls a Eletechsup CE039 serial relay board that can be had for small money (around 10$) on AliExpress or the like. (Example: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32564327195.html) . I connected the board via a USB to serial cable, but if you have a real serial port, this will work as well. Just change the port name in the script.
It works by putting the tally number you want illuminated (number 1-4) in the scene's name between square brackets. (Example scene name : "Camera one full screen [1]") . Program will scan for the current active scene, see whether it is different from the former one, and then activate the light.
It's not much, but it works (Linux only for now). I connected the relays to a bunch of LED's that I placed next to the camera's.
I hope this is useful for someone!
Cheers,
Fripster
