Found an easy way to get stream info to pop up using streamdeck.

Hello! so if you are like me, one of the things you want to do is edit stream info using your stream deck. the official plugin lets you type a title and when you push the button it updates the title but you need to go into the stream deck software and set it first which would be tedious if you rename each stream and play variety games.

I spent a few hours yesterday trying to find a way to make the edit stream info popout work with a button and i figured it out!

how you set it up is - open obs, go to docks, open stream information. You will now have the popout on screen, if you right click it you can - copy current address, do that and then open edge and load that address. Once its loaded click on the 3 dots ... at the top right of the window and go to more tools, apps, then install that web page as an app on your desktop. Right click the app and click "copy as path". Open your streamdeck and on a blank button drag "run" from the system options on the right and then in the field "App/File" paste the path you copied earlier. Name the button something like stream info and now when you press it, your stream information popout appears and because its an app, you can resize it and it will always open at that specified size when you hit your button.
