HTML Overlay using overlays.uno

You can register on http://overlays.uno for a free account and grab your own overlay. Swap the url in the below example to your own custom output url that you can control. You can use the cropWidth, cropHeight options to trim the HTML overlay to a smaller rectangle and get better performance by not processing the transparent areas unnecessarily.

{
  "id": "overlay1",
  "start":"2000.01.01 00:00:00.000","end":"2100.01.01 00:00:00.000",
  "html": {
      "url": "https://app.overlays.uno/output/2VgYWfN6uPom34Mf9LhU2t?aspect=16x9"
  },
  "position":{"x":0,"y":0,"z":2,"anchor":"top-left"}
