How to:

• Download obs-ws.py and run.sh
• Change the variables in obs-ws.py to your setup

• Filepath has to be with / and not \, can be done in python but this is just a dirty script to get going.
• The timestamp is the Danish Timestamp format, can be changed to your liking. Look into datetime documentation.
• OBSIP, OBSPORT, OBSPASSWORD and OBSScene (OBSScene is the scene in your OBS you would like to take a picture of.

• Make +x on run.sh (due to Octolapse not being able to execute Python directly (i couldnt get it working atleast).
• Test it locally before putting Octolapse into the mix (./run.sh)
• Make Octolapse run run.sh (for example /home/pi/run.sh) in "External Camera Setup - Script" under the default camera.

This would not have been possible without:

• simpleobsws - https://github.com/IRLToolkit/simpleobsws
• OBSWebsocket - https://github.com/obsproject/obs-websocket/
• OBS Studio - https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio
