A Python script for OBS to update the playlist of a Media Playlist Source, VLC Video Source, or Image Slideshow source, with the files found in a specified directory, with the ability to have the playlist sorted by datetime modified or filename. Similar to Exeldro's Directory Watch Media
Note: Exeldro's plugin is probably better than this script, but it doesn't support Media Playlist Source yet; I'll have to contact the author. I wrote this script not knowing their plugin already can sort files.
- Make sure that you have at least Python 3.11+.
- In OBS, go to Tools > Scripts.
- In the Python Settings tab, set your python installation path.
- In the Scripts tab, add the directory_sorter_for_obs.py.
Although there is a discussion tab in these forums, I would see your message faster if you ping me (@CodeYan) in the OBS Discord server, in #plugins-and-tools. Please do report bugs or if there are features you'd like to be added.
