Wishes: Folder, Trigger (?) Sources,

Hey guys and girls,

at first, I'm not a native english speaker but I hope, that you understand everything well.

I'd like to see folders in the Source-Field, with those branches and a mark etc. to show if the folder is open or not (like in the explorer or picture manipulating programs like Photoshop or GIMP - with layers (like in OBS, too)). It would be very useful to organize and structure the sources.

So for example, my intermission design has some forms, and these forms show whether a particular game (which is also shown in the design) has already started or is upcoming or has been aborted. So I could structurize this and could make folders for every game I've prepared and then I could enable the visibility for a corresponding form.

I'll attach a picture of it so you'll understand it better (I hope xD).

And the second Idea I'd like is a "trigger source" feature. So it could be possible to enable/disable sources with a chat command (it's nice, because if someone streams with facecam he can make different sources for different cam positions and moderators in the chat could place the facecam in a better place... so the streamer can concentrate more on the stream... or with a voting system for the viewers...).

I think of a simple thing like "write 1 in file x.txt (I think CSV or JSON or something like that would be more useful?!) if the source is active/enabled and 0 if the source is disabled" and this should be updated ... every x seconds or so.

And the ChatBots could use it to implement features like the Facecam-position-thing I've explained above.

I think with this feature implemented, the streams could get way more interactive. And there could be way nicer ideas than mine :D.

I hope there isn't a thread for ideas like this already :o. If so, I'm sorry :/.

Sincerly,
PaRaLLaX.
