Is it possible to have OBS Studio stream a video playlist?
The idea is that local video sources (Media Source) would switch automatically after each one ends.
Like a video playlist that ques up videos and plays them in order while streaming.
I have looked at Automatic Scene switching, but it relies on window capture data and I am afraid that using the computer for other tasks while streaming might mess this up.
I have looked at using VLC and creating a playlist then capturing that window. But, again, this seems to be a kludgy solution that will be prone to inadvertent failure.
Additionally, in both the VLC and Window capture modes I would assume I need to capture desktop audio to stream a complete video with picture and sound. This creates a further complication in not being able to use the computer for other tasks that have audio associated.
Ideally, a Media Source would have the ability to assign a playlist or play next media source when this source ends command. I would like to find a solution that is rock solid and internal to OBS Studio.
In searching the internet the only thing I came across was instructions for doing this in xsplit https://www.xsplit.com/broadcaster/faq/advanced/how-do-i-make-a-video-playlist
I am posting the xsplit link only for reference as it describes exactly what I want to do (the playback controls are nice, but I am only concerned with the playlist feature right now). I do NOT want to switch to xsplit.
Is this possible with OBS Studio?
Is there a plugin?
Thank you.
