Words these pages use
Short definitions, in the product’s own terms. Each links to the page that explains it.
- Browser source
- An OBS source that renders a web page inside your scene. The Broker’s overlay is one transparent Browser source (the app’s card asks for 800 × 600) showing his avatar and captions; his voice is not inside it. Add it to OBS.
- Desktop Audio
- The OBS audio source that carries what your PC plays, including the Broker’s voice. The overlay supplies the picture, Desktop Audio supplies the sound. How the voice reaches OBS.
- Canvas and output resolution
- OBS composes your scene on the canvas (base resolution) and streams or records the output (scaled) resolution; a source’s size and position are canvas numbers. Source size vs stream resolution.
- Game capture (the app)
- After you tick Allow game capture, Signal Broker watches the game window you chose; that is what he comments on. It is separate from OBS’s own capture sources. The setup guide.
- Caption
- The text of the line the Broker just spoke, shown in his overlay bubble beside his avatar. The site’s clips print those words as captions after reading them from the recording. Recorded sessions.
- Game Knowledge
- The app’s preparation step after you confirm the game and before START: he reads up on the game so his lines fit it. The setup guide.
- Broker Bar
- The in-game bar of the app (Ctrl + Shift + Alt + B) that shows what he is doing, such as LISTENING, and your remaining balance. Streaming without talking constantly.
- PAUSE and STOP
- PAUSE holds the Broker without ending the session: he stops looking and speaking until you press RESUME. There is no in-session game switching: to change game, STOP, choose the other game in the app, then START.
- Signal Time, Signal Minutes
- Signal Time is metered from the Broker’s managed AI work — every look at your game and every spoken line — rather than simply the elapsed time of your gameplay session. Your account shows usage and remaining balance. The free trial is 30 Signal Minutes, exactly 1,800 Signal Seconds. Pricing.
- Founder Alpha
- The current early-access build of Signal Broker for Windows x64, sold to customers in the United States only; the current release is 1.0.0-alpha.12. What it does today.
