Is it possible to use the ![Screenshot 2025-05-14 at 10.41.39 AM](https://d2opxh93rbxzdn.cloudfront.net/original/3X/c/9/c9ca2d71cf0cf27037a285bf423ec80f80a6b043.jpeg) live.html as a path that I can have broadcasters input into OBS, to generate an overlay? The goal is to have another page on the extension that can show on-screen alerts and the easiest way i can think of is to host the browser source as the live config page or the video overlay page. ---

If you want to display alerts in a Browser source, use an entirely separate page rather than trying to misuse pages intended for displaying a config. This could even cause you to fail Extension review if the reviewer goes tot he live config and see it displaying alert graphics instead of being a config page. And if you try to use the video overlay, well they why would it need to be a browser source as that’s what will already being displayed to users as the overlay, so you would be duplicating graphics by having both users display it and your browser source. ---
