Controller Overlay for OBS
A free controller overlay and gamepad viewer for your stream. Buttons light up, sticks move and triggers pull in real time, on a transparent background. Add the URL to OBS as a Browser Source: no sign-up and nothing to install.
Which controllers it shows
Any controller your browser sees through the standard Gamepad API, drawn on a DualSense layout. With more than one connected, ?controller=1 picks the second pad slot.
Customise
Select Custom to make the pad your own — body, buttons, sticks, lightbar, and what lights up or sinks when pressed. The colours travel in the link, so the OBS URL and the share link carry them. Display options controls the background, Coda mark and home button. Existing URL options work too: ?theme=<name>, ?bg=green|chroma|blue, ?logo=off and ?home=lit.
Works with Coda
With Coda running, games see Coda's virtual controller: a virtual Xbox 360 controller when you play on a supported PlayStation controller, a virtual DualShock 4 when you play on an Xbox controller — that is the default, Automatic, and either can be chosen by hand. The overlay draws whichever controller your browser reads on a DualSense layout, so with Coda it shows your inputs as the game receives them. Runs entirely in your browser — no data leaves the machine.
