OBS Lua: Sound notification on replay buffer save [Windows]

README.txt

A simple Lua script which plays a .wav sound whenever replay buffer is saved.

## Installation

1. Download Half-Life 2 City Scanner NPC's camera shutter sound:
https://github.com/sourcesounds/hl2/blob/master/sound/npc/scanner/scanner_photo1.wav

--OR--

Use any .wav sound but make sure to match its name either in "Beep on replay buffer save.lua" (edit with any text editor) or rename your .wav file to "sound_npc_scanner_scanner_photo1.wav".

2. Put it in the same location with "Beep on replay buffer save.lua".
A good way is to create a separate "scripts" folder in %AppData%\obs-studio\ and keep all your scripts there in case you need to backup your OBS Settings.

3. OBS -> Tools -> Scripts -> +

Thank you guys!

Beep on replay buffer save.lua

local obs = obslua
local ffi = require("ffi")
local winmm = ffi.load("Winmm")

-- Put a sound of your choosing next to "Beep on replay save.lua" and don't forget to match its name either in code below or rename your file.
PROP_AUDIO_FILEPATH = script_path() .. "sound_npc_scanner_scanner_photo1.wav"

ffi.cdef[[
    bool PlaySound(const char *pszSound, void *hmod, uint32_t fdwSound);
]]

function playsound(filepath)
    winmm.PlaySound(filepath, nil, 0x00020003)
end

function on_event(event) 
  if event == obs.OBS_FRONTEND_EVENT_REPLAY_BUFFER_SAVED 
    then playsound(PROP_AUDIO_FILEPATH) 
  end 
end

function script_load(settings)
  obs.obs_frontend_add_event_callback(on_event)
end

Worked great! Although the revised -10db sound is still just a tad too loud, so here's a revised quieter version of that revision (-15db in total, I think). Other than that, the script worked flawless :)

(attached it as .mp4 because non-authors can't send .mp3 for some reason. just make sure to rename it to .wav)
