If you record yourself talking over video clips—and then bring your camera feed into DaVinci Resolve or Premiere to put in the corner of your screen—you know how painful it is when you make a mistake. This free script lets you hit one hotkey in OBS to instantly rewind your reference video, record a clean camera take of yourself, and drop a perfectly timed overlay right onto your editing timeline."

WHAT THIS SCRIPT DOES:
• 1-Key Replay Sync: Rewinds your media source automatically when you drop a bad take.
• Hands-Free Workflow: Record commentary seamlessly without breaking focus or manual timeline scrubbing.
• Zero Plugins Required: Runs natively in OBS Studio on both macOS and Windows. Use these two custom OBS Studio scripts.

The one script that I created called TalkOver is what lets you hit one button and start your playback of your video that you're watching and start the recording in OBS Studio.
You hit another hot key to stop the video to keep that take. It stops the video and the recording right at the exact spot.
If you don't like that take, you can hit the next hotkey and it will stop the video, stop the recording and roll your video back to the same spot so you can do multiple takes over and over until you like the one you want to keep. If you don't like that take, you can hit the next hotkey and it will stop the video, stop the recording and roll your video back to the same spot so you can do multiple takes over and over until you like the one you want to keep.

In the second script I'll put the link to lets you delete your last video clip so you can set a hotkey for that and every time you do a bad take you can hit this other hotkey to delete that video and then start over on your next take

You can get the delete last recording script here on the OBS project.com website.

For the Edzone custom talkover script, I'm working on trying to get it listed in the OBS project resources area under scripts.
So until I could get the script uploaded into OBS project, right now it's not letting my account upload it.
You can download it here at this Google Drive link.
