Library and web application for managing pre-recorded videos playbacks in Open Broadcaster Software broadcasts.

Tomcat web application that enables scheduling of pre-recorded videos playbacks during OBS broadcast and creating a video plan ahead of the broadcast. Scheduled videos will automatically start in the correct layer.

Currently two interfaces are supported:

• web interface for schedule management and settings (http://localhost:8080)
• web interface with upcoming video announcements (http://localhost:8080/comm) that can be used by commentators or broadcast director

OBS plugin for integrating the web application with OBS.

Plugin exposes certain OBS functionality via Thrift - cross-language services development framework.

Functionality supported currently:

• adding media source to OBS scene
• removing media source from OBS
• muting/unmuting sources

For full API details see thrift file.

Currently the only supported platform is Windows and 64-bit OBS. It's likely that it can be easily ported to other platforms.

See detailed installation and usage instructions here.
