I just tested it, and this does work with FFsplit. If anyone wants a tutorial, I'll record one!

Im having a little trouble trying to get this to work, im trying to use this with OBS but it seems that the CurrentSong.txt file is appearing in my System32 folder for some reason and OBS doesn't recognize it when it's in that folder, if I move it to my desktop is has no problem finding it but then it will no longer update and will instead just create another file in the system32.



Can you tell me where you put the Plugin.jar file?


When i first downloaded it the compressed file went straight into my dowloads folder on my C drive and i extracted it right into that folder, i tried moving the plugin to my desktop and to an external hard drive but the text file always appears in the same place.



I have no idea why it's doing that. The way java works is it defaults to the folder that the program is being executed in unless otherwise specified. In any case, you can just point xsplit/obs towards the currentsong.txt inside the System32 folder.



That's part of what makes it really strange though is that it doesn't seem to recognize it inside the system32 folder, it can see other text documents in there and if i move the file it's fine but it just doesn't seem to find it in the folder. I'll report back if i can find something.


I'll do some testing and get back to you.



It seems I've found the solution, I had two versions of the most recent java installed(the 32 and 64 bit versions) and after removing the 32bit version the problem was solved.

Glad you like it!

EDIT: If a mod could change the title to include OBS and FFsplit, I'd appreciate it. I'm not sure who to PM to ask for it.

I added something for myself to use, figure I'd update the public version too.

You can now add your name to the end of a shortcut target to make it automatically open with your name included. You can also put this shortcut in the start up folder so it auto starts when windows loads.

Noticed that this doesn't show any message if for whatever reason the scrobbler can't display song info (Missing ID3 tags, etc.) and also doesn't update for when there is no song playing.

Otherwise works great

It just pulls the song from the user's RSS feed, so I have no way to check if it's actually playing or not.

Hey Cereal,

I followed your guide for OBS, and your plugin isn't able to find my username (http://www.last.fm/user/lanceaeby). I had 2 versions of Java, removed both and installed the most up to date one, and still no-go. I allowed your plugin on both private and public networks too. Is there something I need to check for in Windows Firewall?

Any help is appreciated, I really want to use this awesome program! Thanks for writing it

Works for me. (Structures - Hydroplaning).

It'd have to be your firewall. You should have javaw.exe and java.exe allowed through the firewall.

Made sure javaw.exe and java.exe are both allowed on both Private and Public networks (in folder jre7), still not working . Does it matter where I saved your plugin? I have the plugin saved on a separate internal drive, while Java is installed on my C drive.

You could try moving the jar to the default drive. Not sure why that would make a difference, but I have no other ideas.

Really weird. Even turned firewall off completely and still no-go. TT

Yeah, even after a few minutes it still can't find my username. I'll try a few other things and see if I can get it working :\ Thanks for the help though

Sorry I wasn't more help. I'm not sure why it would be doing that. I'll see if I can reproduce the problem, and let you know if I can.

Don't need a full tutorial, but what are the instructions to get this working on FFsplit? The overlay manager lets me add an image but I'm not sure how to get it to let me add a text file.

Click on "Add new", then "Text", then fill in the location of CurrentSong.txt in the source box.

Hey, great piece of software you've come up with here. However, i'm using grooveshark for my music source & xsplit as my scene editor. When i input the remote url, and remove the start & end tags, no text shows. i've checked if the source is correct, restarted xsplit etc. The source box comes up, just no text appears. Thanks for putting time into this little plugin.

Does CurrentSong.txt exist?
