OBS as a ToneCast screen

Connect OBS Studio to any ToneCast screen via Browser Source — stream or record what you cast from the dashboard.

Your cast URL
Full screen (opaque)
—
Transparent overlay (timer / text / teleprompter)
—

Use this over a camera or game in OBS. The page background is alpha-transparent — it does not include the ToneCast photo. Fire Stick / room screens still composite over the current slide when Overlay is on.

Install the OBS script
  1. Download tonecast.lua
  2. OBS → Tools → Scripts → + → select the file
  3. Paste your slug + screen, then click Add / Update ToneCast Source
Download tonecast.lua README
Manual Browser Source
  1. Sources → + → Browser
  2. Paste the transparent overlay URL (or full-screen URL for the complete ToneCast output)
  3. Width / height: 1920×1080 (or your canvas size)
  4. Check Shutdown source when not visible
  5. Custom CSS (required for a true transparent overlay):
    body { background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0) !important; }
  6. Place this source above your camera/game. Timer, text, teleprompter, titles, and lower thirds keep their on-screen position with no custom slide background.
  7. After a ToneCast update, right-click the Browser Source → Refresh (or check Refresh browser when scene becomes active) so OBS is not holding a cached page.

obs=1 hides cast chrome. overlay=1 makes the page alpha-transparent and skips the ToneCast photo so OBS can sit over other sources. Overlay graphics still appear if the dashboard Overlay toggle is off.
