Configuration Files

Configuration is managed through json text file in the folder nodecg/cfg.

nodecg-twitch-chat

Create a file named nodecg-twitch-chat.json.

Insert the following into the file, replacing streamsgood with whichever twitch channel's chat you'd like to display.

{
    "username": "streamsgood"
}

simple-obs

Simple OBS displays a list of scenes for ease of switching.

It requires the use of the obs-websocket plugin for OBS, which can be found at github.com/Palakis/obs-websocket

Once installed, open the plugin configuration. Ensure that the server Enabled box is checked, note the active Port that it is running on, and set a Password if desired.

obs-websocket settings location

obs-websocket settings panel configuration

As above, create a configuration file in nodecg/cfg named simple-obs.json.

Insert the following, using the port noted from the obs-websocket configuration panel and any password you may have provided. If you'd like to try and make use of a Replay browser, you can specify the Scene and Video Source name. I've been experimenting with Game Capture of a VLC window instead though and that seems like it will be a better option going forward.

{
	"address": "localhost:4443",
	"password": "my secret password",
	"vodSceneName": "Rerun",
	"vodSourceName": "VOD"
}
