Load video stream instead of usb camera

Sure, it wasn't that hard, which means it's probably really buggy. I'm more interested in your streaming set-up though. Are you using OBS to put all the pieces together?

Yup! I started with OBS back in the day, but there's also Streamlab's variant now which is dare I say a bit more intuitive than OBS itself!

Streamlabs OBS also has bot controls among other goodies here and there.
My main PC has an NVIDIA 960 2gig and it outputs a cool 720 at 30 fps which is WAY more than adequate for what I need it for. I can push the codec to run at 1080 60 fps but twitch caps you at 720 30 fps for non-partners anyways, and it would also prevent me from using my PC while it hosts the stream in the background. Granted I'm unable to play games in parallel (I can stream games, just not the 4k camera WITH the game on top), but that's just because I've been dragging my feet on getting my long awaited GPU upgrade.

I'm shooting for a 2080 Ti 11gig GPU upgrade for a mixture of applications: 3D Scanning rendering via skanect + structure occipital scanner via ipad pro terminal, pre-print processing to allow octoprint to export stl files to a networked pc to slice the object efficiently then send the resulting gcode files back, as well as being able to handle a 4k camera source feeding into a 1080 60 fps encoder outputting to AWS to twitch :smiley:

If you take a peek at my stream the camera is obviously connected to my main PC (streaming PC), the octo modules spread about are just browser sources with my local address for octo as the address and added filters to crop/pad the 800x600 windows down to the more efficiently snipped windows I have in place. The darker theme is from themefy and the custom image for the temp graph was a custom background plugin.

What I do know is that the fix you above will "break" my discord bot's ability to provide snap shots i'm sure, but that's fine. I'm OK with the current progress XD

Cool, the custom background plugin is mine, and it looks like you're using my contribution to themeify with the discoranged theme. As for the snapshot, that depends if the discord remote plugin uses the snapshot url or not. The iframe plugin shouldn't interfere with that.

XD I'm needing to owe you a much bigger and bigger thanks with each thing I find out you had a hand in!

Discoranged saved my eyes, and love the orange and black theme as you can tell :smiley:

The custom background plugin also deserves to be pushed with more visibility, I've got nothing against the octo mascot but I did get a bit of bad blood when it took me a month to figure out how to turn off the octo water mark from the camera feed!

Beatles: Money (lyrics)

The best things in life are free
But you can keep them for the birds and bees
Now give me money, (That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
That's what I want, (That's what I want), yeah!
(That's what I want)
You're lovin' gives me a thrill
But you're lovin' don't pay my bills
