# Teamspeak5-OBS-Overlay
This is an overlay for OBS to show the current talking clients in your Teamspeak 5 Channel.
This App uses the new "Remote Apps" feature of Teamspeak 5.
This overlay uses the [Teamspeak 5 Remote App API](https://github.com/DerTyp7/react-ts5-remote-app-api).

### Adding Parameters
Start by adding a `?` to the end of the URL and then add the parameters.
To add multiple parameters, you have to seperate them with a `&`.
Like this:
**Online:** _`https://dertyp7.github.io/ts5-obs-overlay/?parameter1=value1&parameter2=value2`_
**Offline:** _`file://C:/Users/.../ts5-overlay-{version}.html?parameter1=value1&parameter2=value2`_
Real example:
**Online:** _`https://dertyp7.github.io/ts5-obs-overlay/?remoteAppPort=5899&hideNonTalking=true&clientLimit=5&showChannelName=true`_
**Offline:** _`file://C:/Users/.../ts5-overlay-{version}.html?remoteAppPort=5899&hideNonTalking=true&clientLimit=5&showChannelName=true`_
This is a **list** of **all available parameters** (all parameters are optional):
| Parameter | Description | Type | Default |
| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------- | --------------- |
| `remoteAppPort` | The port of the Teamspeak 5 remote app | number | `5899` |
| `hideNonTalking` | Hide all non-talking clients | boolean | `false` |
| `clientLimit` | Count of how many client should be shown | number | `0` (unlimited) |
| `showChannelName` | Display the channel name | boolean | `false` |
## Setup (Developer)

## Common Issues
### The overlay is empty, but i'm connected to a Teamspeak 5 server
**Fix 1**
Make sure you accepted the notifiaction in your Teamspeak Client.
**Fix 2**
Sadly TeamSpeak5 does not give us any information about the current active server tab.
So we try currently use a workaround, where the active server tab is determined by looking on which server the your hardware input was unmuted the latest, since the non-active server tabs in TS5 usually mute the clients microphone.
However this workaround is not 100% accurate and can fail in some cases.
Possible fixes:
- Unmute and mute yourself in the active server tab (Just a normal unmute and mute, not the hardware mute)
- Reconnect to the TS5 server while the overlay is open
### OBS doesn't show the latest version of the overlay
This can happen if the OBS Browser Source is caching the overlay.
To fix this, open the Browser Source settings and click on "Refresh cache of current page".
