I know OBS and other's have an easy way to show text and even reads from a file dynamically but it seems vMix with their scroll text doesn't have this. However, i'm sure it can be done via API or other means. Has anyone else done this or do I need to brush off my coding skills and tackle it?

thanks in advance.

Basically I just want to read from a CSV or from any file and output the content. The text file already gets created by another program so this would be fully automated.

wow. or two seconds in OBS :) however, Casper is something I was going to do later but was hoping for something much simpler for something that should be. I ended up just writing a C# app that reads files and uses the API.

thanks for this though so when I do tackle Casper!
