Description of Alertopif

Alertopif is a tool designed for streamers who want to display custom videos on their live stream as interactive alerts.

The idea is simple : the streamer prepares one or more video playlists, then these videos can be triggered during the live stream, for example through a chat command or a Twitch reward using Channel Points.

The goal is to add a funnier, more personalized, and more unpredictable touch to live streams by displaying videos selected randomly or through different selection modes.

Custom video alerts for live streams

Alertopif allows videos to be displayed directly in an OBS browser source. The streamer can create visual alerts that appear on top of their content, such as an animation, a funny clip, a meme, a sound with a video, or any other content suited to their community.

Each video can be configured with its own settings : title, URL, volume, display duration, clip to play, display format, zoom, cropping, or position offset.

A playlist system to organize alerts

Alertopif is based on video alert playlists. The streamer can organize their videos by theme, event type, or mood.

For example, it is possible to create a playlist of funny videos, a jumpscare playlist, a reaction playlist, a special playlist for subscribers, or a playlist reserved for specific moments during the live stream.

Each playlist can have its own command, making it possible to trigger exactly the desired group of videos during the stream.

Chat commands and Twitch rewards

Alertopif can be used with chat commands, allowing the streamer, moderators, or authorized viewers to launch a video alert.

The tool can also be linked to Twitch rewards using Channel Points. This allows viewers to trigger a video in exchange for their points, making the interaction more fun and participatory.

This system is especially suited to communities that enjoy surprise alerts, memes, personalized reactions, or small moments of controlled chaos during a live stream.

Random or organized playback

Alertopif offers several ways to choose which videos to display. A video can be selected randomly, played in order, or used in a shuffle system with no repeats before the full cycle is complete.

The streamer can also adjust the weight of each video to increase or reduce its chances of appearing. This makes it possible to make some videos rarer, more frequent, or more exceptional.

Thanks to this system, each trigger can keep an unpredictable feel while still giving the streamer precise control over the content shown.

Visual effects to make alerts more dynamic

Alertopif does not just display a video : the tool also offers several visual effects to make alerts feel more alive.

You can add entrance and exit effects such as fade, slide, zoom, rotation, blur, bounce, drop, or shake.

Other options can also enhance the display, such as video bouncing, light rotation, trails behind the video, continuous rotation, or a zoom in/out effect during playback.

Compatible with several types of videos

Alertopif can be used with different types of video sources, including YouTube videos and direct video files.

The streamer can also use videos stored locally on their computer thanks to a small dedicated local server. This makes it possible to display personal videos without needing to upload them to an external server.

This option is useful for using your own clips, memes, edits, or community videos while keeping the files directly on your PC.

Designed for OBS and streamers

Alertopif works with a URL that can be added as a browser source in OBS. Once configured, this source displays video alerts directly on the live stream.

The streamer can configure the window size, video position, display duration, format, visual effects, and trigger rules from a dedicated settings page.

The goal is to provide a flexible, fun, and customizable tool without requiring the streamer to edit code themselves.

In summary

Alertopif is an interactive video alert system for streamers. It allows you to create video playlists, trigger them during a live stream, and add visual effects to make alerts more dynamic.

With chat commands, Twitch rewards, custom playlists, display effects, and the ability to use local videos, Alertopif offers a complete tool to make a live stream more lively, fun, and participatory.
