OBS Studio Integration 📺
OSMV integrates seamlessly with OBS Studio to display both the animated music overlay widget and the dynamic clock text.
🎨 Adding the Music Widget (Browser Source)
The music widget uses a local HTML file to display the current track’s album cover, title, artist, and status with beautiful CSS animations.
Step-by-step Setup:
- Click the + icon in the Sources box of OBS Studio.
- Select Browser (Navigateur).
- Name the source (e.g., “OSMV Music”).
- In the properties window:
- Check the Local file (Fichier local) box.
- Click Browse and select
shared/index.htmlfrom your OSMV folder. - Set Width (Largeur) to
500. - Set Height (Hauteur) to
140.
- Click OK.
⏰ Adding the Clock (Text Source)
If you have the Time Module enabled, OSMV writes the formatted local time to a text file.
Step-by-step Setup:
- Click the + icon in the Sources box of OBS Studio.
- Select Text (GDI+) on Windows or Text (FreeType 2) on Linux.
- Name the source (e.g., “OSMV Clock”).
- In the properties window:
- Check the Read from file (Lire depuis un fichier) box.
- Click Browse and choose
shared/dynamic_text/Time.txtfrom your OSMV folder.
- Click OK.
[!TIP] For best text quality, configure a large font size (e.g., 72pt) in the source properties, and then resize the source bounds directly on the OBS preview screen to fit your scene.
