I’m after just the song that is play only into a txt file so I can import into another app to show the song title. I know there is song2text app for windows but is there anything for mac
 
Not exactly like that.

But the song is saved automatically to /documents/virtualdj/history/tracklist.txt

So if your other app can grab the very last line in that text file perhaps
 
No the app just grabs the full .txt i☹️
 
Still trying to get the Title info from VDJ to put in OBS. VDJ is getting left behind the is app for serato that does this & rekordbox now but still nothing for VDJ that i can see.. :(
 
 
I use OBS because of the HTML overlays for Streamlabs & stuff for twitch. Virtual DJ isn't versatile enough for what I'm wanting to do that why I use OBS. I have used the title overlays over the top of the video but still not what I'm after. Rekordbox now as a Github project that will save the title to an HTML file also found a way to read from KUVO as well.
