The scrolling ticker shows your messages one after another: when you stream, what the commands are, your Discord link. Put each message on its own line.
What you can customize
- Message list
- "INFO" label on the left
- Solid, glass or no background
- Constant speed in px/s
How to add it to OBS step by step
- Select "Scrolling ticker" from the list and adjust the look in the preview: colors, text, speed and other options.
- Click "Copy" next to the Browser Source link.
- In OBS Studio, add a source: Sources → + → Browser (Browser Source) and paste the link into the URL field.
- Set the source size to 1920×64 px. The background is transparent, no custom CSS needed.
- Drag the source above the other layers so it's visible on stream.
Questions and answers
How do I make scrolling text in OBS without plugins?
Type your messages into "Scrolling ticker", copy the link and add it as a 1920×64 Browser source. No OBS scroll filter needed.
Are the overlays free?
Yes. All overlays on overlays.vxh.pl are free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no limits.
Does it work in Streamlabs, Meld and TikTok Live Studio?
Yes, in any app that has a browser source (Browser Source): OBS Studio, Streamlabs Desktop, Meld Studio, XSplit and TikTok Live Studio.
Where are my settings saved?
All settings are stored in the OBS link itself. You can also save them under a name in the "Saved" tab, but that copy lives only in this browser's storage (localStorage). It won't be there on another computer, which is why the VXH1- share code exists for moving settings around.
Does the overlay slow down my computer?
Effects are drawn on a single canvas or in CSS and run smoothly in OBS. If your computer is on the slower side, lower the "Amount" slider or the source size.
