Intended for streamers who use OBS Studio (http://obsproject.com)
If you like to watch YouTube videos or listen to YouTube playlists while you stream, this extension will write the video title and uploader's name to a text file which you can use as a text source in OBS. OBS text sources automatically update, so the layout object will always update as a new video starts.
You can specify a format for the display of this message and toggle turning it on or off (it will always trigger the download bar which can be annoying if you're just trying to watch videos and not stream, so you can disable it from your toolbar when you like).
USING WITH OBS STUDIO:
- While you have this extension enabled, it will download a file called "current-youtube-output.txt" every time a new YouTube video plays in your browser. It will always overwrite the same file.
- In OBS Studio, under Sources, add a new Text source and check off "Read from file". Navigate to your downloads folder and select "current-youtube-output.txt"
- Style and format it however you want using OBS Studio's options.
- It will automatically update whenever a new YouTube video starts in Chrome. Does not need to be the active tab.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
