CD Rec status

An OBS plugin to display the status of an ongoing cd recording as a dock.

The offical obs plugin template was used to create this plugin.

How it works

This plugin listens in on a WebSocket server on ws://localhost:8765 from which it receives messages like:

{
  "recording": true,
  "cd": 3,
  "track": 7,
  "cd_time": "00:12:03",
  "track_time": "00:01:26"
}

It then adds a dock on the obs studio interface titled CD Rec Status that displays the state of the (ongoing) cd recording.

Building

  • checkout the obs studio repository
  • cd UI/frontend-plugins
  • run git clone https://github.com/noahvogt/obs-cd-rec-status.git cd-rec-status
  • add the following line to the CMakeLists.txt file: add_subdirectory(cd-rec-status)
  • follow the offical obs build instructions for your prefered platform

You now have compiled OBS with the plugin. But you probably don't want to rebuild obs after every new release. So just find the cd-rec-status.so file in the build directory and put it into a plugin directory you can point your regular obs installation to. If you are unsure on how to structure the plugin directory, have a look at the releases on this github repository.
