Post Description

Hi HN, I built a simple way to integrate a YouTube Music player into OBS without needing any clunky plugins or external software. It runs directly as a browser source, making it lightweight and easy to set up for streamers who want to show their current track. You can try it out here: https://timexo.gumroad.com/l/playlistplayer?layout=profile I’m looking for feedback on the UI and if there are any specific layout features you think would be useful for different stream overlays.

AI learning paths with YouTube playlists

Type a topic and it returns a chapterized study plan, a clickable Cytoscape graph, and a one-click export that builds a YouTube playlist from the suggested tutorials. The streaming OpenAI responses + interactive graph give the experience polish, but the real challenge is content quality — relevance, date, and sequencing of videos will determine whether this is a handy study tool or just a tidy aggregator.
