Shredder_guitar Posted October 27 Posted October 27 (edited) Thinking of sharing this out, not quite ready yet, but I'm at a point where I'm handling edge-cases. I use Prisim Live Studio to stream online and I got tired of filling out the info forms for streams so I wanted to automate that process and use Launchbox info and artwork assets to do things like make thumbnails use metadata as tags and consolidate that down to a single button press on my streamdeck. Below is a map of what the process does and also images of the actual plugin. Lemme know if there is any interest in this or if you have any questions. Process map Main plugin screen Sidebar studio: Web interface to upload or set sidebars that can be used in prism live studio The web studio Here's what the result looks like on youtube Worth noting on this one, hellraiser always made launchbox crash in the background for some reason so the info disappears halfway through the stream.

JoeViking245 Posted October 27 Posted October 27 No personal interest ('cause I don't stream) or questions, but a suggestion [which you didn't ask for any ]. It may feel more intuitive to, instead of selecting from the Tools menu, right-click 'the game' and select the plugin from there. 1 Quote

Shredder_guitar Posted October 31 Author Posted October 31 (edited) A bit of an evolution on this.... This plugin now owns the entire process of screen management for the prism platform. So more like a companion app now. I've made this in such a way that themes are contextual depending on what the currently active game is, so for example if playing Sonic the hedgehog, the assigned sonic the hedgehog theme will become active. Silent Hill? Silent Hill theme becomes active....etc. There is a theme builder webpage that you can open and upload images that you want to have as a welcome screen, sidebar, thumbnail, intermission screen, thanks for watching screen. You can set a default theme and then make game-specific themes for there. The prism form population process works, but is still fragile AF, so I'm currently working through that. My goal with this stuff is mostly set it and forget it....create the images, set up a theme and then that's that. Then just a few button presses to start streaming and everything else is done for me dynamically. Let me know if there is any questions or interest in this. Main screen Screen manager but more of an overview screen for the current theme based on the active game Overview tab of the screen studio web UI Overview tab - pt 2 Screen to set the thumbnail for the current theme and also access the editor This is the editor screen for the thumbnails ....welcome, intermission, and thank you screens are similar. Side bar screen Sidebar editor which has a few more options like displaying artwork assets. Edited October 31 by Shredder_guitar Quote
