Video Tile

It would be neat if, when dropping a video in as an audio clip, we could convert the tile into a tiny video player so the clip itself can be used as a visual cue

I'll consider it, but it will have to wait until I've worked the other high priority requests.

Completely understandable, just wanted to post it here before it slipped my mind. 👍

Seems a bit out-of-scope for Caster, but paired with OBS, I can see how it could work. Here how I would imagine it:

• User loads a video clip into CasterSoundboard
• Caster creates a video window(or stream) output for OBS to capture.
• OBS has a plugin that allows CasterSoundboard to switch to the video clip source once the Tile's keyboard shortcut is pressed or it detects the video stream is sending data.
• OBS goes back to the last source it was at after Caster is done playing the clip, or it times out. Whichever comes first.
• Rinse and Repeat.

OBS dose have an automatic scene switch but will probably need to add the ability to switch if it detects something is playing on the scene.

I think you're imagining something completely different from what I had in mind, I was thinking something more as a visual cue for the person using the soundboard when video is available since the soundboard can accept video files, not trying to share videos from the soundboard.
