How to Display Rolling Credits on Stream

The Movie Credits widget creates cinematic rolling credits for your stream. Choose between a classic movie-style scroll or the iconic Star Wars crawl effect.

When to Use

  • Ending a show with credits (thanking team, sponsors, viewers)
  • Creating dramatic text reveals (Star Wars-style)
  • Displaying acknowledgments or special thanks
  • Professional show endings

Steps

Step 1: Add the Credits Widget

  1. Open the Layers tab. Apps work on both scene types:
    • Dynamic Scene: expand Apps & Widgets -> Add from marketplace
    • Pro scene: click Add New Layer -> Apps & Widgets
  2. Search for “Movie Credits” and click to add it

Step 2: Choose Animation Style

StyleDescription
Star Wars CrawlPerspective text that scrolls into the distance. Auto-applies gold text, Gothic A1 font, justify alignment, and dark background
Movie StyleClassic vertical scroll. Auto-applies white text, Roboto font, center alignment

Step 3: Enter Your Credits Text

  1. Click the text editor in settings
  2. Enter your credits content using the rich text editor
  3. Use headings, line breaks, and formatting as needed
  4. Max 3000 characters

Example format:

PRODUCED BY
Your Name
SPECIAL THANKS
Viewer Name 1
Viewer Name 2
POWERED BY
evmux

Step 4: Configure Settings

Step 5: Set Up Auto Scene Switch (Optional)

For a professional ending:

  1. Enable Auto Switch on End
  2. Select the target scene (e.g., an “Offline” or “Thanks for watching” scene)
  3. When credits finish scrolling, evmux automatically switches scenes
  4. Works best with Loop off so credits play once then switch

Tips

  • Star Wars mode looks best with gold text on a dark/black background
  • Loop on for continuous credits during a “thank you” segment
  • Loop off + Auto Switch for an automated show ending
  • Special fonts like Honk, Bungee Tint, and Bungee Spice have built-in colors and ignore the text color setting
  • Use a slower speed (2-3) so viewers can read the names
  • Full-screen the credits layer for maximum impact
