Flux' Music Overlay

A little program that communicates with the WebNowPlaying extension to show the current song in a browser.

Installation

Installing the browser extension

1. Follow the installation instructions for the WebNowPlaying browser extension.
2. Open the extension settings and make sure the Rainmeter adapter is enabled.

The program itself

1. Download the latest release from here.
2. Extract the zip file.
3. Run the WebNowPlaying.exe file.

This starts in the background, if it seems to do nothing, that's normal.

You can close it again using task manager.

You can now open the overlay by opening http://localhost:8975/ in your browser or add it as a browser source in OBS.
