Swinout

An apple script that writes Swinsian current track information to files.

Useful for live streaming software, e.g. OBS, to display the "Now Playing" information.

Support

• Track name
• Artist name
• Album name
• Album artwork

Setup

1. Download the script from the repo
2. Open the script with Script Editor
3. Modify the directory for your own use case
4. Export as application "Swinout.app"
5. Run Swinsian
6. Run Swinout
7. Play a song in Swinsian
8. The current track information is now available in the files (track, artist, album, artwork)

Use with OBS

Note : OBS does not support choosing files without extensions, you will need to choose a "dummy" text file, and then edit the file path in your scene file.

1. In OBS, File > Show Settings Folder
2. Go to basic/scenes
3. Quit OBS
4. Open your scene file (*.json) with any text editor
5. Replace the "dummy" text file paths with the paths of the files provided by Swinout
6. Run OBS
7. Now the "dummy" texts become the current track information
