Chat Widget

John Regan edited this page Mar 20, 2018 · 6 revisions

The chat widget is an embedded version of the chat interface. You can use it with the OBS BrowserSource plugin.

You can create your URL manually, or you can click the Chat Widget link to pull up an interface for building the URL interactively, with a preview of how the chat widget will operate.

Here's an example URL:

http://127.0.0.1:8081/stream/7/chat?widget&hide_irc&from_bottom&font_size=16&token=XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Here's each query parameter and what they do:

  • token - required, this is how you authenticate to multistreamer
  • widget - required, enables the chat widget mode
  • hide_irc - if this exists, IRC messages will not be shown.
  • hide_pm - if this exists, private messages (twitch whispers, IRC PMs, etc) will not be shown
  • from_bottom - if this exists, messages will appear at the bottom of the widget, and work their way up
  • font_size=x - sets the font size to x pixels
  • fadeout=x - fade out messages after x seconds
  • compact - enable the "compact" layout, which works well for narrower windows
  • night_mode=(true|false) - force night mode to be on or off
