amazing how many people thought Streamlabs OBS was officially associated with the OBS project
if anyone can make a custom web app that displays things like twitch chat and whatever, hit me up
I shouldn't have to rely on these big public services for these kinda things in the first place
it's appauling that when I search for "OBS Chat Widget" I get hundreds of results for streamlabs
@Violet I don't know about building a special webapp, but would just _plopping in the Twitch chat_ and removing the background with CSS work? I bet that'd be feasible.
They have browser sources on non-Windows finally, if you're using something not-Windows.
@IceWolf probably, I'd need to figure out if it's possible to do css styling to it or something
@Violet Yep, the browser source's settings has a CSS textbox right there!
@Violet Or at least it used to, when we used OBS a while back. It's been a while since we streamed.
@IceWolf yeah it's there, i just have no idea how to use it to customize the chat itself
@Violet Ah! Browser devtools will help you there: if you open the chat in a browser too you can poke around with the inspector, and try to do things with say the page background color there.
@Violet (If you don't know CSS we'd be happy to help out with that as well!)
@IceWolf maybe some other day, i'm feeling kinda rough tonight
@Violet *nodnods* absolutely!
@Violet @snailerotica cc @compucat , havent the TASBot folks already done exactly this for embedding twitch chat?
@quarky @Violet @snailerotica Kaedenn wrote a slick app to do that, it might not be up to date though
@Violet iirc there's a streamlabs importer for streamelements
@sc I looked into streamelements and I can't say I'm a fan of how you basically have to make a custom layout on their website just to get something as simple as a chatbox
@Violet yeahhhh... i'm legit surprised nobody has made an open-source service for twitch alerts yet
I've only been using the streamlabs web tools for handling on-screen notifications and stuff, but honestly after how badly they've fucked up i'm probably gonna move to streamelements
unless someone wants to make a custom thing for me
