im a solo screen scrub for uncontrollable reasons and factors but i still stream, and find workarounds for impasses i encounter in trying to better my stream, in that your chat is a gem
using:
obs
clr browser obs plugin
ubi2
WMP+
open source music ticker script collects WMP+ now playing from title bar and makes a .txt file that is played via OBS (not avail with WMP
restream.io to twitch, hitbox, and gaming.tv
steam overlay web browser localhost:8080 to check chat regularly
even twitch alerts
feedback & flattery
love ubi2, great program, solves many problems, merges chats for easy viewing/replying, localhost:8080 with merged chats for viewing (even on the near unusable steam overlay web browser) and broadcasting, compatible with the common open CLR browser obs plugin no more needed.
you have a bright future and if it weren't for bttv i dont think any1 would/should need anything more for their stream chat service needs, it is eyecandy, it is utility, it is optimization, its efficient, open source, low impact, easily adjustable (via obs and clr browser plugin), its just great
issues:
i also can't seem to send messages to twitch from the main ubi chat (receive just fine login credentials are correct im positive) (hitbox.tv and gaming.tv work for send/receive just fine)
i was unable to use your obs plugin as it always broke the CLR browser obs plugin (which is needed for twitch alerts) the install path is probably to blame, i know of no plugin that requires the "obs" folder be the destination and that obs.exe NEEDS to be found, its always in plugins folder
the CLR browser obs plugin works with
http://localhost:8080 so there is no need for your plugin, you launch ubi and if your clr browser source is localhost:8080 you're good (as long as the layout(dimensions)/layering is set correctly)
as such perhaps references to your plugin for obs that doesn't work could be done away with so people dont get confused and/or have technical
difficulties
request:
i was hoping there was a way to add a url option for localhost:8080 that would add the viewer counter and the user list, but then obs would stream that too (which isn't necessary)
i said to myself, maybe the user list and viewer counter could be fed into a port separate from 8080, but that would defeat the purpose, the counter and list would be separate from the chat which is less then ideal for simplicity's sake, (dont think steam web browser has any method of seperate browser windows in overlay.....)
perhaps if there was a way to have it a url option for 8080, and yet be ignored by obs, but i figured that wouldn't be possible, if it is possible tho, that would be my request
i dont see any other options, if steam web browser had plugin options this wouldn't be a problem at all
edit: steam overlay web browser DOES support multiple browser windows making a viewer counter and user list to port a viable option imo (at least for me)
