πŸ“‘ Unlisted / private stream link

Test streams only

Unlisted and private streams do not show on the channel's live page, so this tells the overlays which stream to watch (like goal, Show Meter, tonight's crew). A stream started from this link is marked as a test and stays off the boards. Clear it after the test; the crew finishes and saves a few minutes after the stream ends.

🎬 Sync beep

For lining up audio later

An old-film countdown beep that plays out loud from this phone, so your mics record it. Tap it once while the Starting Soon screen is up, with this phone held next to your shirt mic and environmental mic together (pull the environment mic off the rig and hold it beside your shirt mic) and the volume up. The mics hear it, so it lands in the stream audio and in both transmitter recordings at the same moment. In Premiere, line up the beep in each file. Plays even with the phone on silent.

πŸ–ΌοΈ Show & Tell

Nothing picked

One picture or web page, big, for the audience: a menu, a flyer, a listing sheet, a chart. It shows in the Show & Tell placeholder (stagedirector.shanezuspan.com/show) and inside the β˜• Take 5 scene (…/take5).

…or paste a link (https://…)
Caption (optional)

Photos are shrunk before they upload, so a phone photo is fine. Web pages: many sites refuse to show inside another page and come up blank; a screenshot always works. PDFs: screenshot the page you want. Take 5 shows whichever was switched on last, this or the stat card.

β˜• Take 5

Off

A quick break while you keep talking. One Moblin browser widget, full frame, on top of your camera: stagedirector.shanezuspan.com/take5. Off = the Take 5 title page shows, so the scene is never empty. (Add ?off=clear to the link if you want off to be see-through instead.)

πŸ’¬ Between-takes prompt

On screen: nothing. The standard line shows.

Up next: tap Skip to line one up.

Nothing goes on stream until you tap Show it. The prompt shows big on the Title page, and on the left card in Half and half so your camera stays up. In Half and half the newest thing wins: send a stat or Show & Tell after it and that takes the card; tap Show it to take it back.

The deck lives in Grist (Chat Bank): tick Take 5 on any Get to Know or This or That row, tick Local Only if out-of-towners couldn’t answer it, then tap πŸ”„ Refresh bank.

Title page: the Take 5 screen, no camera. Card only: your insert as one big card. Half and half: insert on the left, you on the right. Me only: just you, with a small Take 5 label. The insert is whichever was switched on last: the stat card or Show & Tell. You can pick the view before you switch it on.

🎬 Call Sheet · 🏠 Housekeeping

Auto off

The small line along the bottom of the Minimal-Auto-V1 layout: Call Sheet items and chat tips like β€œType !commands”, one at a time. Off hides it until you switch it back on. The Call Sheet card below is separate.

A rotating housekeeping card on stream. Shane Show looks show 🎬 Shane’s Call Sheet; the Deal Done look shows 🏠 Housekeeping. About 24 seconds, one line at a time.

Repeat automatically every

🎯 Shot list (just for you)

Empty

Your own list of shots to get. It shows on the Confidence Monitor (/m) with a Next button and never appears on stream. To clear it, empty the box and save.

πŸ“£ Callouts

Off

Tap one to put a branded card on stream. Use it to remind chat what to type, or to ask for likes and subs.

How long

πŸ‘ Like goal

Off

A bar on stream that fills as viewers like the live stream, with a "+1 like" pop. When it hits the goal, it celebrates and the next goal kicks in. YouTube updates the count every 15–60 seconds, so it lags a little.

πŸ’₯ Reaction Battle

Ready

Shows live counts of YouTube's reaction buttons (❀️ πŸ˜„ πŸŽ‰ πŸ’― 😳 under chat) on the emote wall, with a πŸ‘‘ on the leader and a winner burst at the end. Anonymous totals only, so it's for hype and crowd votes, not points. Unlimited taps, so spam is the point.

Secret Β· not on !commands

!cbg (or !worst) + any words β†’ a big comic-style "WORST. ___. EVER." slam on stream for 7 s. Only you and the handles below can use it; everyone else gets nothing. Skipped during an Emojiworks show or when the wall is paused.

🎬 Showstopper

Ready

The rare, earned one (was Emojiworks). Chat fills the Show Meter by tapping YouTube's reaction buttons and liking the stream (a like = 10 taps; Stars join in V2). When it's full, the meter on stream turns into "CUE THE SHOWSTOPPER!" and the button below unlocks. Nothing starts until you tap it. Once per stream.

A stream that doesn't play it resets the streak. Taps are counted ~8 s late to match the stream delay. Unlisted tests count toward the streak, so use Practice for tests.

Your overworked, underpaid PA is frozen at the counter. Chat picks with the reaction buttons: the thing you want, the thing you don't (shuffled on screen, never labeled), or a 🎲 mystery menu number. "Will Shane like it?" runs while you wait, then you give the verdict after a bite. Every round is logged to Grist (Chat Bank β†’ Crafty_Log).
