ObsAutoRecorder

ObsAutoRecorder

Automatically controls OBS to record match sessions based on your preferences. Also renames clips and writes chapter markers coinciding with said clips to videos.

[!WARNING]

This mod does not currently work with the new friends board system. People can still be added manually by their PlayFab ID to the AutoRecordList.txt file in your UserData folder for now.

Quick Start:

Install Kalamart's OBS control API and UIFramework. Then just go to your friends list and start picking people to auto record by clicking their name in fighter options

If not go set it up even if you're not gonna use this mod it's honestly not that hard and it's very useful

Features

New feature: Create a timestamp file

• When a recording is active, this setting saves a timestamp of the current timecode of the recording.
• You can use these timestamps to add to a YouTube description or use them as part of an ffmpeg command to extract your clips later

New Feature: UIFramework support

• UIFramework is now a dependency. Press F9 to open the new settings UI that lets you edit MelonPreferences which is the settings framework used by this mod. You can now save settings without reloading the scene
• Press F9 (default) to open the new UI

Other features

• Auto-record matches based on a BP threshold or a custom list.
• Automatically rename recordings to include opponent names.
• Display OBS recording status on the health bar. (Can be hidden from rock cam and legacy cam)
• Replay buffer support with optional chapter markers.
• Keeps recording active for a short time after a match, allowing seamless continuation if you rematch them. (Recording Hold Timout in config)
• If the recording was started manually through OBS, the mod won't interfere and remains inactive.
• If you pause and then resume the recording within 0.5 seconds, the mod is reactivated and resumes control of the recording.
• When the mod is inactive due to an externally started recording, the OBS logo will blink (minimal icon appears red).
