A break is the quietest your chat gets all stream. A poll on the break screen changes that: instead of waiting, the room is deciding something, and you come back to an answer rather than to silence.
Add a poll block to the screen. It shows whichever poll is running, with the bars updating as votes come in, and it hides itself when no poll is live — so the screen is never carrying an empty panel.
You set it up here
It lands here — the real overlay
The poll sits beside the clock. Sample votes; the block is real.
What you’ll build
A BRB screen carrying your live poll, with the bars moving as votes arrive.
The screen and the poll share it — you are not adding a second source for the poll.
Open the screen, add a block, and choose Poll. There is nothing to configure: it shows whatever poll is running.
Open the poll from the Polls tool, then press the screen. The block fills in as soon as the first vote lands.
One key each carries the show’s arc — Starting Soon before you go live, BRB at the break, Ending at the close. Here’s the loop, and what each side sees.
Press the Starting Soon key before you hit Go Live in OBS. The scene covers the whole canvas — your title, subtitle, and an optional countdown — so early arrivals see a show warming up, not your desktop or a frozen game menu.
When you’re ready, the same key clears the screen. It fades out to reveal whatever OBS was already showing — game, cam, everything. You never built a second OBS scene and you never switched one.
Door, food, bathroom: one tap (your phone deck works from the kitchen) and the BRB scene covers the entire canvas in one press — game, cam, and all. Set a countdown and it can even clear itself when you’re due back.
The thanks-for-watching scene holds the screen while you say goodbyes, plug the socials, and send the raid. Screens are one-at-a-time, so firing Ending swaps out anything else — then you end the stream on a produced note.
Every stream has moments the camera shouldn’t carry alone. These are the ones a screen covers:
When: You go live a few minutes before you’re actually ready — and viewers arrive early.
Why it works: A countdown screen turns dead air into anticipation. Notifications land, the room fills, and you finish your setup behind a scene that looks deliberate.
When: Bathroom, door, food delivery — the two-minute step-away every stream has.
Why it works: One tap covers the room: game, cam, and desktop all at once. Nothing awkward stays on screen, and the countdown tells viewers exactly when to drift back.
When: The game crashes, audio drops, or a capture card picks tonight to die.
Why it works: A calm, branded “hang tight” screen beats a frozen frame. Viewers stay seated while you fix it, instead of assuming the stream is over.
When: End of stream — you’re saying goodbyes, plugging socials, sending or landing a raid.
Why it works: An ending scene keeps a produced frame on screen through the whole wind-down, so the last thing anyone sees is your brand, not a hard cut to offline.
Starting Soon, Be Right Back, Stream Ending — every preview below is the real full-screen renderer with its countdown ticking, scaled down, not a mockup.
The countdown that turns early arrivals into an audience.
Fire it, go live, and finish your coffee. The purple sweep, your title, and a live 05:00 countdown hold the screen while notifications bring people in — by zero you have a room, not an empty chat.
One key up before you go liveOne tap covers everything — game, cam, desktop — instantly.
“Back in five” with a ticking timer reads as a promise, not an absence. Set the countdown to auto-hide at 00:00 and the stream uncovers itself the moment you’re due back.
Can auto-hide itself at 00:00A produced close that holds the room through the wind-down.
“Thanks for watching” stays up while you wrap, plug tomorrow’s stream, and send the raid. Retext the subtitle to your schedule once and it’s one press at the end of every show.
One key closes the showYour Kloot source sits on top of your OBS scene, so a screen hides the whole canvas in one press — and one more press reveals the game that was under it all along. No scene collection, no switching.
Yes. A vote moves the bar on the screen in about a second, with nothing to refresh on your side.
The block draws nothing at all — not an empty frame, not a spinner. A screen with a blank panel on it looks broken, so it simply is not there.
The poll has its own join code and QR, which you can show on the same screen with a second block.
