MossCast

GUI frontend for Streamlink. This was originally developed for the NecroDancer racing community as MacSG. While I would like to think some of these changes could be contributed back upstream I have extensive changes to make to support Spelunky events and ported the code base from VB.net to C# to make it easier for our community to make changes quickly.

Getting started

You'll need VLC Media Player and Streamlink.

Automated text sources

MossCast outputs the streamer names and pronouns provided into plain text files, located at %AppData%\MossCast (which can be opened via File > Open AppData Folder). You can use these inside OBS using the Text GDI+ source type, and checking the "Read from file" checkbox. By default, streamer names and their pronouns are written to 2 separate files, e.g. streamer-01.txt and streamer-pronouns-01.txt. You can write both the name and pronouns to one file by clicking File > Combine Names and Pronouns, which for MacND and He/They results in an output format of MacND (He/They).

Customising VLC behaviour

You can configure VLC to have certain behaviours exclusively with MossCast, such as hiding the VLC interface, by modifing the configuration file located at %AppData%\MossCast\vlcrc. Some common items you may want to change:

  • Set qt-minimal-view=1 to hide the user interface automatically
  • Set video-title-show=0 to hide the name of the media being played, this dispalys as fd://0 for Streamlink
  • Set video-on-top=1 to have VLC always be on top of other windows
  • Set audio=0 to have streams always be muted when started
