Overlays

The overlay layer of your stream

A live, themed track display that adds itself to OBS in one click, and looks like you, not like a template.

One click and it's in OBS

Now Playing talks to OBS directly: Add to OBS creates the browser source, names it, sizes it for your theme, and drops it into your scene. Streamlabs and every other browser-source tool take the same overlay URL by paste.

Theme gallery

Broadcast-ready before you touch anything

Every theme in the gallery is built for real sets: long titles ellipsize instead of wrapping, missing artwork falls back gracefully, and quiet moments don't leave a dead box on screen.

Pick one, add it to OBS, and it's your look for tonight. Swapping themes later doesn't touch your OBS scene. The overlay URL stays the same.

Theme editor

Make it unmistakably yours

The editor changes layout, type, colors, and animation with a live preview of the real overlay. What you see is exactly what OBS renders.

No CSS required, nothing to re-add in OBS afterward. Your changes publish to the overlay URL the moment you save. Part of Pro.

Custom templates

Or build the whole thing yourself

Custom templates are plain HTML and CSS with live track data fed in: title, artist, artwork, BPM, key. If you can build a web page, you can build an overlay.

Designers use it for client-branded streams; tinkerers use it for things we never imagined. Part of Pro.

<div class="lower-third">
  <img src="{{artwork}}" />
  <h1>{{title}}</h1>
  <p>{{artist}} · {{bpm}} BPM</p>
</div>
Album art

Full-resolution artwork, found for you

Now Playing pulls art from your files, your rekordbox library, or the hardware, and when a track has none, it searches online sources so the frame never sits empty.

Want artwork as its own scene element? A dedicated art endpoint renders just the cover, sized for the corner of your layout.

Not just for streams

The overlay is a web page, so any screen with a browser can show it: a venue display behind the booth, a projector at a wedding, a spare laptop at a bar gig. Open the URL full-screen and the room knows what's playing.
