Hello, I'm trying to use Tuna (https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/tuna.843/) but I can't configure the right one, can anyone help?
I just had tuna
with sriracha seasoning, chipotle powder, some turmeric, black pepper, vinegar and nutritional yeast. Nom nom nom.
🙂
Yeast is a funny word
is there a plugin to smooth edges of a source in terms of opacity? like the last certain amount of pixels fading from 100 to 0 opacity.
I think you could do that via an image mask, but you would need to know approximate shape (you can stretch, but might not look amazing).
By varying the the mask, I believe that would let you blend it in terms of opacity. I haven't tried, but in my mind it would work 😂
perfect...found a youtube video of someone doing exactly what i want w/ a mask. thanks 🙂
I think I made one a while back but don't remember what I called it or where it is. It didn't allow gradual smoothing of an arbitrary source however as that would require an Nvidia 6090 Super Ti Kingpin Extreme
For a rectangular source or other fixed shapes that are known quantities, it is easy though.
i just needed to smooth the overhead camera for my DJ gear so a static shape/size works great for this purpose actually. i've never used an image mask in OBS so i didn't even think of it.
My Shape Mask shader does it with rectangles, polygons, circles, rounded rect+poly
I made one that antialiases the outer edge of an arbitrary source also. Hoping to get a bunch of this stuff together in a sensible state by the end of the year if life cooperates. 🙂

There are some places out there that have pre-made Streamelements widgets, was just curious if someone knew of other sites. No biggies! 🙂
Hello guys! Any ideas why this happens? I'm using the move plug-in so I can animate the crop filter. Notice that when I crop only the left and right sides, the image distorts a bit, I'm sure this was not suposed to happen... Thanks!
have you tried different movement types or whatever it's called in the plugin? if you screenshot the plugin window i could point it out.
Hello! Sorry for the delay... Turns out the problem is if you have other filters added after those crop animations, here's an example of a crop filter (add gap required) and then a shader filter for creating an outline. You can see when I disable those, move filter works just fine... Do you think this behavior is expected? Thanks!
I've also tried with the next crop filter only, without the shader, same result....
This is because of the easing mechanism, to avoid it you should configure it to linear easing.
ease-in/ease-out causes things to speed up and slow down at the start and end.
I think I've tried that too, even disabling it completely, no luck. Let me check again
I don't think there's linear...
Also, you are changing the width (size) of the image in the above clip, which if you're cropping with move-transition, if either is using easing then they will have varying speeds leading to oddities like that.
here's with easing disabled, it still distorts but a lot less
the secondary crop is just for the outline gap, a negative number, so the shader could work.
the only move filters are the square and wide
sadly, I cannot crop it using the regular transform tool, since the shader needs the source size to create the outline
transform crop happens after all filters are applied. The crop filter happens wherever it is put in the filter chain.
All of this is because I need a dynamic outline for a size changing source haha
The StreamFX SDF filter works for that as long as there are transparent pixels around the edge of the source.
Although it can be potentially a bit expensive.
I think that's the sabe deal here, I had to add a couple of extra pixels using a crop filter
(depending on configuration)
For rectangular source like that, a fixed function is technically better as it'd be low resource rather than hunting transparent pixels though.
I presume that is what outline.effect is (haven't seen that one)
What I don't understand is why this happens even with the secondary crop (chain) filter disable, it still distorts
having only the shader filter also distorts the imagem when moving
Hard to say without seeing the configuration of every filter
but I've went through all of them in the other video 🙂
this one
Ok, I see both Square and Wide filters have ease in/out applied
I pulled my hair out with this sort of thing in Blender keyframe animation last year until I realized having multiple properties being animated simultaneously with the default easing algorithm was the cause of the problem. 🙂
Setting everything to linear solved the issue. Same thing applies with animating properties in OBS with move-transition, or over websocket/midi etc.
but there are no linear ease, I've also tested it with easing completely disabled
No easing is linear.
got it, so no luck for me haha
like this
Is it inside of a group or nested scene where some other filters are also stacking on top?
no, just a regular image source, added to a scene, not inside a group or nest
I'd get rid of the transform size modification.
And if the overall size needs to be changed, I'd use the Scale/Aspect filter with move-transition instead
Could be some kind of filter chain ordering issue going on, and transform is fixed function at the end of the pipe, whereas filters can be reordered to need.
but scale changes the entire source resolution, right? What I need here is to crop pixels so I can add the shader filter, in order to create a dynamic outline...
this is the main idea: https://streamable.com/o24jty
I see
I don't have m-t set up currently or I'd take a stab... Still haven't migrated my old setup to new 😦
Are those done with move filters, or is it a browser source using CSS and/or Canvas?
just move filters and streamer.bot
no problem, thanks!
On the website it could be done with anything, including the video editor it was produced with. Doesn't matter though if the goal is to take something visibly seen in someone else's content and replicate similar FX within OBS mind you.
I helped someone get something like this working a year or two ago using rounded corners with outline. Very similar use case. First time was before we had all these fancy plugins so I had to really think outside of the box but eventually got a super ugly hack working.
Then Exeldro unleashed the move-transition and life became good. LOL
Mabe I'll ask Exeldro himself in the OBS forums haha
Sadly at some point I had to sit at the back of the bus on 26.1.1 due to color oriented issues in newer releases with my setup so I wasn't able to keep up to the minute with all the cool stuffs. Now I can but IRL is the holdback. Grrr. 🙂 Can't wait to get fully back up to date on all the toys.
I hate to bother the guy... He is like a superstar here haha
If I had my setup all working I'd dive deeper as I can't resist things like this. Can't dive deep ATM but it does tug at me at least, so I'll be dragged back down the rabbithole soon enough likely hehehe
I need to spend at least a week even just downloading all Exeldro's current plugins hehe.
Ready to wire it all up with MIDI in Reaper this time too which should be a blast. Something I've wanted to do for 3 years now but wasn't able to for various reasons. Got all the hardware and software rocking now though, just need to wire it all up and go into....

anybody know how to make my webcam look more clear, it often goes pixelated and idk what settings i have to change? id appreciate it

How do i use a panel for streaming on youtube
what do you mean panel ?
It could be a committee of people gathering together in a room to discuss a given topic and make decisions. ie: "The focus group panel.", or... it could be wood panels, which are a common wall covering used up until the 1980s or so, very popular in the 1960s. Could be a part of certain types of doors too.
I'm not quite certain how any of these things could tie in to an OBS plugin or tool however. I'm still working on what the connection might be. 🙂
Ahhh, a vertical section of fabric can also be considered a panel. That could be a backdrop or something, but still not a plugin or tool so... beats me.
hello everyone
Hi! I have contacted the people at Twitch Sound Alerts and they recommended speaking to you. They don't have an option in their system, but I was trying to figure out how to put in a background to their sound alerts overlay. It is a Browser Source and I tried working with the Custom CSS, but I couldn't get it to work. Am I doing the code wrong? Is what I am trying to do not possible at this time?
I want to have a background fade in with the original Browser Source Overlay when a Sound Alert is redeemed.
if you have the alerts on its own audio channel you could use some kind of VST maybe to cause the alert to get louder as sort of a fade in effect.
No idea what VST you would use however.
VST as a filter on the audio channel
maybe a gate with a super low threshhold, almost zero attack and slow release, whatever compression suits you, just brainstorming
@void pine streamFx's dynamic mask can be used to link the opacity of 2 sources together, so they pop in and out simultaneously, is that good enough?
maybe someone can help me with this weird thing i have going on. I have the Move-Transition plug in and I cannot for the life of me understand how to get an object to completely spin in place. here's a video to show what's happening
i'm not sure what the waviness is coming from, that makes it hard to see, but the image is able to spin 270 degrees, and then it reverses course to go back to it's original position
Sorry, this is a visual to the sound alert, not the actual audio itself. Thank you for the ideas, though!
I have not heard of this before! I will look into this.
on the fourth one, try making it 359 degrees
then add another to put it back to 0 degrees, but instantly
so that kind of worked. the only way I can get it to do a full 360 spin in place is to on the last source use the transform relative button and add a degree. there might be a more efficient way to do this using less sources so i'll fiddle around more but that was extremely helpful and led me in the right direction. Thank you!
alright, so the Transform Relative button is exactly what I needed. the solution was staring me in the face last night for like 3 hours while I was sitting working on trying to get the dang image to spin in place. I feel so silly right now that i didn't just try that
Is there a plugin that if a Text Source which is "read from file" changes the text, that a fade transition trigger?
not able to check right now and i think the answer is no but advanced scene switcher is the only plugin i could think of to do this.
I did look there first but I couldnt find something that worked for me. :/
Maybe this kind of plugin is a gap in the market 😉
@pure fable not directly, Touch Portal could probably make that happen using a flow
what kind of plugin tool that help me stream multiple platform and how can I get it?
A third party plug-in for streaming to multiple RTMP servers is available for OBS Studio. https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/multiple-rtmp-outputs-plugin.964
hello i am trying to add teleport to have a dual pc set up and it wont show up on the second pc anyone know why?
https://github.com/fzwoch/obs-teleport
you followed the instructions here?
yes i can get both pcs teleports to show up on my gaming pc but they wont show up on the streaming one
On your gaming pc you need to goto Tools->Teleport and put a tick in Teleport Enabled and set a name in the Identifier and it should show up on your Streaming PC when add Teleport and refresh the list.
So you shouldn't activate the Teleport under Tools on your streaming PC.
so i have done that and nothing shows up on the stream pc....
but if i click teleport enabled and name it on the stream pc it shows up on my gaming pc
Does your streaming PC show up the list on your streaming pc when you do that?
yes it shows up on the streaming pc list and on the gaming pc list
the gaming pc only shows up on the gaming pc not the streaming
you didn't change the port and have it still set at 0 ?
under Tools/Teleport that is
i have the port set to 1 on gaming and 2 on streaming
no need to change it and just keep it on 0
You did try the refresh list on the streaming pc? If you enable Teleport on the streaming pc does it show up on the list?
yes i did and yes if i enable it on the streaming it shows up in the list on both the gaming and streaming pc i cant get my gaming pc to show up on the streaming pcs list
That is odd. It is like something is blocking it to receive the signal from the gaming pc to your streaming pc but works fine the other way around. Sounds like it might be a firewall blocking it on the streaming pc if you got one installed that is?
got it it was a firewall issue so simple but couldnt figure it out for some reason..thank you for the help!
Glad you got it sorted. Have a good one!
Hey guys so installed a new plugin but its not showing up
this usually means it wasn't installed properly.
wrong version i noticed
is there a way to add obs virtual camera to unreal 4
this is more of an unreal question. whats the purpose though? i believe you can use spout to send video between OBS and unreal.
i want to send obs screen to 3d objects
That'd best be done with Spout then, which makes the video texture available to an external program via shared memory, so there is no video encoding overhead or quality loss occurring, nor latency.
I highly doubt anyone here is going to give you a step by step but as both me and SB said, spout would be the way to do it.
it's ok i solved it manycam virtual cam works with unreal 4
That might work, but virtual camera software is going to encode the video putting a burden on your GPU or CPU, then it has to be decoded once it is received, using more resources. If the system is powerful enough to handle it ithen that's fine but still resource wasteful.
i have gt710 its using 80% and i m using cpu encoder on obs so its ok for now
Pardon me, how would I do this? I am not sure what term to search up to find tutorials.
@void pine there's a wiki but it's very abstract, not really a guide on how to get any useful results out of dynamic masks https://github.com/Xaymar/obs-StreamFX/wiki/Filter-Dynamic-Mask
let's assume you have "source 1", an alert that pops up on the screen temporarily and becomes transparent after a few seconds, and "source 2", a random image that you also want to appear and disappear alongside "source 1"
open Filters for "source 2", add a "dynamic mask" filter, choose "source 1" as "input source", then scroll down, set alpha channel "base value" to 0, set "alpha input value" to 1, then trigger an alert to see what happens
Beautiful, thank you! I will try this shortly.
So, it works, but also doesn't. I get a weird stretched "shadow", if you will when I want a full rectangle behind it. I am trying to layering stuff on my overlay.
So, I would have a Rectangle 1 with some text and a background, and Rectangle 2 with the same background that will appear on top with the alert.
do the sources' dimensions match exactly? if not, masking might look weird due to scaling
Uh, no, they are two different shapes.
(resizing a source in obs-studio via sceneitem transform won't help, only resizing via Scale and Crop/Pad filters)
you can take a screenshot of the alert with the Screenshot(source) feature, open it in an image editor and figure out the exact dimensions
i dunno, i never had any "weird shadows" when i used this feature
try to rescale your image to be exactly the same dimensions as the alert, see what happens then
Sorry, what I meant by shadow is what the masking did. This is what I am trying to achieve.
could you upload this image file?
The background or the alert?

So, the alert box size is different from this image and the animation inside is actually smaller than the actual box, so I am guessing there is some padding.
I lost the chat panel and the edit panel and I don't know how to get it back
!docks assuming u are on windows
Docks in OBS can be managed from the Docks menu in the main OBS window. You can toggle docks on and off, or lock or unlock docks to prevent moving and editing, as well as add custom browser-based docks here.
You can also reset the UI from this menu to return your docks to their original state (Docks > Reset UI).
@void pinedoes this look like your desired effect?
still won't let me ;c
Ah, it was the chat and stream editing panel. You using Twitch?
I'm from the obs, and the chat panels don't appear, look
@void pine i think i know what's happening here, need to change this somewhat
create a "source mirror" source and point it at your alert, then crop the source mirror using a "Crop/Pad" filter to only leave a single spot on the alert that doesn't have any partially transparent parts, such as this spot
If you stream to Twitch, you need to Connect or reconnect to Twitch in Settings > Stream
after that, open the dynamic mask filter you already have and change the input source from the alert source to the newly created source mirror
look, the chat is not in the obs
I will try this later as I am about to stream, but thank you so much for your help!
the source mirror can be dragged somewhere off-screen where it won't be seen by viewers

Where is your OBS Studio installed?
What do you mean?
You have an icon of OBS on your desktop, right?
Yes.
Right click it and hit Properties, then copy what's in the Target section into here.
That'll tell us where OBS is installed to.
Ah, you must be using the Steam version.
So, for Steam, you'll have to manually install the plugin.
Needed a screenshot of the Shortcut tab, actually
Ah, good point
Ok i did now hwat?
I guess I randomly guessed right
So what do I do?
DO as this video shows.
Then, your plugin should be all good.
Plugin installers sometimes assume OBS is in the correct, common install location.
In your case, you installed it to a different folder.
they don't assume, they read the registry key
Then maybe their install was moved
decent possibility
or they installed but then removed it and started using the steam version
(which doesn't seem to set registry keys correctly, i think)
Their shortcut wasn't a steam shortcut
It was a direct OBS studio shortcut
If they had Steam OBS, it would have been a URL shortcut instead of an executable shortcut
Installing via steam definitely sets registry keys correctly
^ agree, buuut, in my experience, if you had an existing install (non steam), it did not overwrite/replace those reg entries.
If I uninstalled the normal version, and re-installed steam version, it was corrected
yep, or if you uninstall non-steam and then run a repair on the steam one, I believe
will there be a plugin manager in obs 28 update?
I don’t believe so
No, it didn't make it into v28, we have no detailed ETA yet
Hello guys i have problem with se.live when i use it in my obs sometimes bitrate drop to 0 here is my obs forum post https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/obs-drop-bitrate-to-0.158376/
Due to a number of incompatibilities with OBS 27.2 and newer, we are no longer able to provide support for instances of OBS with the StreamElements plugin (SE.live) installed.
If you need help with StreamElements products or services, please join their Discord server or submit a support ticket as we cannot provide further assistance here.
We're fine with support for OBS here, just not with their plug-in installed as it replace core components of OBS.
^ and I'm pretty sure they've been made aware of that stance
Do the StreamElements support folks not realize that this Discord wont support SE.Live OBS instances? Or do they just not want to deal with it?
and I'm pretty sure they've been made aware of that stance
They've been told. I don't get why they refuse to understand
Probably a better question for fenrir though
Thought you meant the user above, rather than support, when u said that 🙂
I've seen them redirect people towards here and tell them specifically not to mention they use se.live, so they deffo know
Oh!
Its not like we cant easily see in the log file

Does Anyone know how to uninstall audio monitor plugin from a mac
Can someone assist me with better creating time stamps when streaming that isn’t twitch stream markers? Is InfoWriter used by many? How can I easily find segments of my stream other than replay buffer?
@sage island use infowriter or obs-chaptermarker, whichever you like more
Anyone have the discord for OBS Websocket JS plugin?
If so could you throw me a link? I have a question about it.

Hey guys...New to the whole Discord thing...So bear w me...Question...Trying to dl lower thirds...Watched a number of vids to install & apply to obs. Still won't work...Any assist would be great. Thx
Also, heard that the newest update for obs 27.2 does not play well w lower thirds app...True???
any plugins to give me a notification or a sound that i clipped something with replay buffer?
advanced scene switcher. set a macro for when replay buffer is toggled and set it to play a media source of your choosing.
im stuck on this part, how do i select a sound
you need to add a media source to your scene
the media source does not play for some reason
you'll need to set it to "monitor only" in edit>advanced audio properties
thank you it works now
no problem.
you're also bad at following the rules
hi
Hi guys, i tried to install " Multiple RTMP Outputs Plugin ", but doesnt show up nothing, and i dont see this plugin in docks. Can anyone help me?
!clog lets have a look 🙂
dont want to clutter up #windows-support so here is another pict of my SceneTree setup, now expanded a bit
I did this and nothing happened. There is still no background.
Nevermind, something glitched, but I fixed it.
You run a dual pc setup? I wish I could get even fancier with my scene layout amd creative stuff, but my hardware gets pushed hard
yep, tempted to go triple
THEN I would actually use Scene Collections
thats a Tri-Caster, right? 
Calm down sushi dragon jr
You see the mega pc MrGregles has?
Imagine how many plugins you can run with that processing power. ALL OF THEM AT ONCE DOING ALL THE THINGS
rendering array that just happens to also stream
is every stream in bullet time?
@untold jay Is there any way you could please send me the cropping dimensions? It is being janky on my end.
One single streamfx blur filter would still cripple it, I bet. 
tryna make a virtual mic, using plugins to use a certain window sound as a mic, can someone help me with this

To capture audio from selected applications only, similar to Discord, you can try the new OBS audio capture plugin (Windows 10 2004 and above only)
!vbcable
- Install VB-Audio CABLE. (A reboot is not required)
- In OBS Studio, go to Settings > Audio and select "CABLE Input" as your Monitoring Device
- Go to Edit > Advanced Audio Properties and enable Audio Monitoring for the audio sources you'd like to stream to Discord.
- In Discord, in Voice & Video settings, select "CABLE Output" instead of your microphone under "Input device".
Now anything you monitor in OBS Studio will be streamed to Discord. Similar steps will work with other conferencing apps, such as Microsoft Teams or Slack.
@warm oyster using those two things i linked above can enable you to do so.
Need something to display keystrokes on stream/screen recording
E.g if I press Windows logo key + Shift + S. It should display Windows key + Shift key and S key
in this style? https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=225
There is a plugin that kind of works like that, but I suspect you might be looking for the above, instead of a virtual keyboard showing buttons (which might not include the specials you're talking about )
These add only specific keys
I think they mean like Blender's screencaster addon, owo. Makes like a transparent Twitch chat, but instead of doing what Kapchat does, it just shows what keys you hit. But looks like a chat.
I was of the opinion that unless you're doing custom stuff, input overlay would be to limited for what they want
hence why I suggested AutoHotKey
There is a software, swift sword, snap sword or something like that, it will create a overlay for each keystroke
the AutoHotKey script from Flaeri sounds like it's exactly what you're looking for 😮 or at least the closest you'll get to it probably.
input overlay has also full qwerty keyboard available. though it still displays full keyboard on screen and not only part of currently pressed buttons
But can it do keycombos like this tho?
thats what I gathered that they want, so hence the suggestion
That looks like it was added in post, to me.
thats literally what it does, except for the pretty buttons
Yes, it seems to do the job, but I am after those pretty buttons
The pretty buttons are why I said it was done in post and not live. 
then you'll probably have to pay for whatever specific software they used
or do it in post, yea
First need to find the name of the software
as it's been mentioned a few times, that most likely was done in post
I recorded that video and it was done in-recording
But I can't remember the name of the software used
ok.. So why are you asking? 🤔
you show the name of the software in the video, what do you mean?
Can't remember the name of software and my own laptop is not working
This video I mean
have you watched the video you posted (which you claim to have made)?
i'm so confused. the video is specifically about the two software options and the names are said repeatedly.
I made the windows screenshot video not the open-source software one
and why cant you use the one in the video you posted?
You mean I should carnac?
it was your suggestion, not mine 🤔 Why did you post that video?
I'm just trying to understand
Found this video while searching for this. Will try it. I think only issue with carnac was development, it was stale last time I tried it
Swordsoft Mousetrack?
anyone knows a opacity plugin? i want like a circle that creates like a gradient or anything else except this sharp border. :x
You want the mask filter.
Which is a default OBS filter.
!filters
Many options for fine-tuning your video and audio sources in OBS Studio are in the Filters menu. To access this menu, right click on your source (or click the Gear icon next to an audio source) and select Filters.
For more info, see our guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Filters-Guide
check the section on Mask
you can just google for like "webcam mask image" and get a billion options to choose from
I am looking for a plug-in to create dynamic assets from a json or XML file similar to the Data Sources and Title Editor in V-mix.
I create sports broadcasts & I am bring requested to take in JSON data, supplied by a website, into a obs broadcast. I have created simple scripts in the past to read new Json and update OBS text files, but this is extremely limiting in building score widgets as I can only change text and not graphics, positions, and colors. I do not want to switch my set up to V-mix, Help would be greatly appreciated!
Most people handle that through simple web pages.
There's about 850billion examples of scoreboard things in our resources section, or just online in general.
850 billion?! That means every person alive has made 100 score board things! 
i've heard very varying info on direct window audio capture, what's going on with that kind of plugin currently?
@manic river We're implementing it first-party in the next release. You can try it out early with the beta (details in #1004146447991709816 pinned messages)
With the note that it's Windows only for the moment.
oh awesome, glad i asked
@void pine trigger a test alert and screenshot it using the Screenshot(source) feature without filters, then post the image here, i can figure it out then
I got it working, I had mistyped a value. Thank you so much for your help!
Carnac seems to be working fine
Is there any plugin that you know where I can have moderators of my Twitch channel operate things on my OBS from the twitch chat ?
Lumia Stream allows you to do this to some extent
https://youtu.be/GTE6x01Rvag
EDIT: updated the video as there is a more updated one and it seems like there's quite a bit of control.
Touch Portal can also help.
Same concept but it isn't just lighting
mods can change scenes, toggle filters, toggle sources, etc. with twitch commands
that's what lumia does 😄
i didn't know you could set up chat controlled commands with touch portal as well though
yep, pretty much anything that will work through the websocket
i use lumia for lighting already and had no clue the level of control it offered until i just watched. that video. you can even set up your alerts through there so you don't have depend on the browser sources apparently.
interesting
sorry im new too obs and having to learn everything on youtube, can anyone help me, i would like too play music and just want it to show on stream what im listening to, im sure its probably really easy but i have no idea lol
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/tuna.843/ this is the plugin you're looking for
(unless you're using another application than the ones listed to play your music)
awesome thank you very much
Does anyone know if there is an updated obs ndi plugin compatible with the ndi 5 runtime environment ?
I don't believe so. The devs of the current NDI plugin has hinted that its something they are working on once they finish their current projects 🙂
at least thats how I understood it
everytime i use the obs virtual cam plugin it crashes my obs studio all the time
why are you using the plugin instead of the builtin one?
Hello, I'm looking for a plugin which, when I change the scene, will allow me to set that the intro shows immediately and not that it will go to the scene first and then the intro
what exactly is the "intro"
what i am trying to do is, capture my OBS to dsicord using obs virtual cam
why aren't you using the builtin virtualcam?
thats what i am trying to use with discord, but its not working for me
- Windows 10 20H2 (EOL)
- Not Admin
- No Output Session
Intel Core i9-9900K @ 3.60GHz - OK! / GeForce RTX 3060 - OK!
remove the plugin, and try using the builtin one instead
What is the alternative if someone needs the VCam Filter by Exeldro? That isnt possible with the built in one, and the Filter plugin was last updated when 27.2.4 came out, roughly
i removed the plugin, and tried using the built-in OBS virtual camera to capture OBS but that still did not work
what happenw when you try it?
I mean, I mean the transition of the scene made for me
use the transition as a stinger
it did not allow me to capture it back onto discord at all, it did not give me the option on doing it
I use it but I don't know why I will show the changed scene first and then the "intro"
So “OBS Virtual Camera” doesnt appear as a selectable camera in Discord?
most likely because you didn't set the transition point right
and how to set the transition point correctly? I don't even have the timings shown in the options; p can I write to priv? I'll show you what and how
in the properties of the stinger. This is, in seconds from the start of the stinger, the moment where it'll transition from one scene to the other "behind" the stinger, so you have to set it to a time at which the stinger covers the whole screen
nope it does not
Windows 10's April 2018 Update adds new privacy settings for microphones and cameras, which can block them from use. The camera privacy settings also affect capture cards. These settings are opt-in. To allow apps like OBS to use your microphone or camera again, follow these steps.
- Open the Settings app.
- Go to Privacy -> Camera for capture cards and webcams, and turn "Allow apps to access your camera" on.
- Go to Privacy -> Microphones, and turn "Allow apps to access your microphone" on.
@lilac holly sorry, we don't provide support in DMs
ok ok
i have no idea to where to find thse options, 1) Open the Settings app.
2) Go to Privacy -> Camera for capture cards and webcams, and turn "Allow apps to access your camera" on.
3) Go to Privacy -> Microphones, and turn "Allow apps to access your microphone" on.
Windows Settings app
allow apps to access my camera is set to on all ready
is there a way to add "stream activity" like new followers/subscribers and such into OBS itself like you can with the Stream Chat and Info? (shown here)
thnak you! easy fix

Hi guys I've been advised I need a rematrix plug in for the issue I'm having with my dj controller recording my cued song when listening through my headphones however can't find the kind person that told me now. I'm so confused how to download the pliguns into my Windows computer as there are so many folders.
@mossy lintel
Me personally use always .zipped versions of plugins and put them manually into dedicated folder and not using executable installers.
So I drag'n'drop them into OBS root folder making sure that folder structure is intact and same
Ah it was you that advised me. Yes I've found them but I'm stuck from there
Oh rite ok great thankyou so much again buddy
Which plug in was the one I needed again? Im. Having issues with OBS recording my cued song when the volume is down and my headphones are plugged into my controller
the gain one
So this is what I have set in OBS
And filter added to my Traktor Audio Device
If you're using a portable install of OBS instead of using the regular .exe installer, you can do the following, but with the install script
To uninstall VirtualCam on Windows:
- Navigate to:
C:\Program Files\obs-studio\data\obs-plugins\win-dshow - Right click
virtualcam-uninstall.bat, and Run as Administrator.
If you have OBS installed in a different directory (or in portable mode), right click your OBS shortcut and choose "Open file location" to track down the location of the obs-studio directory.
I've been using OBS for a while and wanted to know if there was any plugin filter I can use that can help tone down alot of my S sounds as they usually come out a bit loud sometimes
You can do that with an audio compressor. OBS has one built-in as an audio effects filter
the two families i'm most familiar with is reaper and tokyo dawn. but yea there has to be a de-esser out there if it isn't included as part an EQ vst or something else.
Is there a plugin that allows for a better replay system?
Nevermind I believe I have found one
The optimal way to do that is with a de-esser VST plugin, you can search Google for "free de-esser VST" and try a few. Alternatively another way to do it is with a multi-band compressor such as the ReaXcomp VST from the free ReaPlugs VST package by Cockos. The latter is a bit more complex to set up and probably requires a tutorial to learn how to manually de-ess using a multband compressor. In both cases you're essentially reducing the audio levels at around 5-7k carefully via compression, however the de-esser plugin does it with a friendlier easier to use UI.
Hey! Does anyone know how to use Audio Monitor? I installed the plugin but it's not showing on OBS
nvm
Hello! I was looking to see if a plugin already existed for this.
I want to combine the image source with the text source.
Basically I have a text file containing a URL to an image. That text file gets updated every few seconds. Upon detection of that file being changed, I want to load that URL from the text file and display it as a image.
This seems like it would be fairly simple to do... but I haven't found an already existing plugin to do this?
browser source with a script updating its url regularly
Problem is the browser source, even with HTML / JavaScript, can't load a text file from the local filesystem to display in an IMG tag.
no, the browser source is just pointed to the URL and you use an OBS script to change the URL it is pointed towards according to the text file
Do you have an example of updating a browser source via a script by chance?
I have an example of updating a text source via script that I just did for chiyo in #scripting , browser source is gonna be the same except that the name of the data property is gonna be something else, probs "url"
Okay. I'll review that. Thank you.
if you don't understand how it works/how to alter it for your purposes, hmu
Will do.
Is there anyone who can help me through the setup of the replay source plugin? Struggling a little bit...
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/replay-source.686/
Hey, I use a plugin called Reaper and I have everything set to how I like it but I can still hear background noise when I speak and only when I speak. There is keyboard and fans noises even though it's quite you can still hear it and it's annoying. Anyone has a work around this? If so please help me
Either eliminate those noises or use noise suppression
Microphones hear things totally different than how your ears do
I have a blue yeti microphone I believe it has suppression on it already and the noises aren't loud but loud enough to hear them time to time
Anyone tried this
Is it better to use that plugin as opposed to just capturing the screen for VR ?
it says it captures an eye .. maybe better dunno hence why i'm asking
Hey guys,
I recently done a windows wipe and lost my plugins.
I do VR DJ shows, the backdrop is a video playlist and I had a displace filter with my logo on top for that effect- but for the life of me cant seem to find said plugin. Is anyone able to help?
dunnae the plugin but you don't need a plugin to do that, just a duplicate of the background with an alpha mask would do
Would that not mean more processing power cos im running the stream and VR software all from the same pc.
(but I'm betting you had streamfx)
@glass crescent would you mind if i DM'd you with some questions about your VR DJ setup? (unrelated to your issue)
shoot.
yeah can move down there. Asked yolo to stay here for you @mossy lintel
thank you ill have a look at this./
barely more, alpha mask aren't that costly to run
https://i.imgur.com/BU3ffEH.jpeg
am i being a dumb ass, i dont see half the filters listed
ill give it a shot, but trying this "StreamFX" plugin.
are you looking for the ones in SDF effects?
im looking for "displace" and some sort of 3d movement to be applied to logo.
from the streamFX developer
ah ok
yee streamfx probs has whet you need
and it has displace effect preset in it
sick we are getting there slowly. thanks guys
isit possible to make the sliders automate them self?
not as easily as you may think it is. you can use move filters + advanced scene switcher i believe. move filters to control the sliders. advanced scene switcher to toggle the move filters on a timer.
Are there any alternatives to obs-ndi plugin? or any update on when it will be upgraded to work well with ndi 5 and ndi 5 runtime environment ?
There is Teleport, not sure of the status on that plugin and v28 yet though
yes i have seen teleport but i think for Teleport i need to run an instance of OBS on each PC. I want to avoid that and thats why i would like to use NDI. if interested here is the issue i am facing
Hoping someone can help. I have 3 PCs all on the same LAN and same switch. All windows 10. 2 PCs can send and receive NDI from each other. 3rd pc is not sending out any video. The NDI sources from pc3 are listed on other PCs 1 and 2, but just no video output. It receives NDI video from PC1 and PC2 and locally within itself. Just does not send. I have checked firewall settings on all three pcs., turned off firewalls and tested, also checked firewall rules. Changed network ports. Still no luck. PC 3 also runs obs and obs-NDI plug-in. So it’s running ndi 4.5.1 runtime environment for the use of ndi obs plug-in and ndi version 5.5. PC1 and PC2 are not running obs 4.5.1 runtime environment. Could the runtime environment be causing the issue?
are the PCs physically close to each other?
Yes.. they are… why how does that matter ?
was just going to say, if you don't want to run OBS on each PC, you could always use physical capture cards
yes sure, but i am trying to use NDI
And both are going to reduce quality overall, even NDI
Didnt have to repost all that, its 5 or 6 messages up
i am actually trying to fix the issue. I just uninstalled ndi run time 4.5.1 and ndi still sworking locally within the PC. but still no change to the other PCs... they still see the ndi sources from PC3 but do not display any video
seems we do not actually need ndi runtime 4.5.1 for the obs-ndi plugin to work
Quick question, how do you make a plugin start with OBS? Or I must manually start it
Assuming it's a properly coded and installed plugin it does it automatically.
Any alternative to nvidia broadcaster for the video background removal feat?
Broadcaster bugs out my whole system
There's a standlone version of the background removal but not sure if it'll work for 27.2.4 or just current 28. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/broadcasting/broadcast-sdk/resources/
28 is beta @vapid charm ?
Not sure unfortunately as I'm at work and haven't actually looked at it yet.
You are aware that most plugins dont work at all with v28, correct?
I got the dynamic delay plugin. is there a way for it to be on slow-mo 100% of the time?
I'm running a webhook that enables/disables the filter, and I want it to be slow-mo once it enables
but it seems like I have to manually hit a hotkey to slow it down instead of using enable/disable to toggle the slow-mo
sadly my webhook is limited in such a way that it can only enable/disable filters instead of triggering hotkeys etc.
I have two goals: forced fixed bounding boxes (so that a move/resize filter can’t accidentally “escape” the box)
Matching based on what’s on screen - but because it’s a Split View environment, it will match based on a scene I’ve created that shows the full contents of both capture cards (this is what I was using but it’s gone silent in their discord and no signs of OBS28 support https://github.com/HoneyHazard/PixelMatchSwitcher) @ me or DM me on response please! Disabled streamer here and discord can get away from me sometimes

hi new here and trying to work out 2 pc streaming with NDI plugin it worked on 1st set up now i cant see the gaming pc on the streaming pc any thing i might have done to make this happen ?
both PCs are windows and are both on the same internet
tried using the teleport plugin and still nothing shows on the streaming pc
Its usually just the firewall most of the time. Make sure output is enabled, and then you can temporarily disabled the firewall to verify. Make sure you restart OBS afterwards. If it shows up, you know its the firewall. From there you can chose to make an exception in the firewall, or alternatively just keep it disabled if you're on a network you trust, and its not a laptop etc
Just curious but are there any plug ins that work with obs 28?
yeah, all of the ones that dont link to qt
well, assuming there was no specific breakage other then that, heh
had to do it on both pcs
When using the replay lua and I change the directory for my recordings I cannot get the plugin to play the new/most recent replay even after I select a file in the new folder. How do I fix this?
Hey, does anyone know any vst plugins that can make my mic wound like the voicemod "Cop Radio" option?
i presume that you just need a band pass filter
With Exeldro's Replay Source Plugin, how do I make it so I can clip multiple replays at once and play them like a montage with a simple fade between clips?
@weak escarp for the directory watch media plugin, would it be possible if you can add the 'date accessed'and 'size of file' features to the "sort by" dropdown menu ? Tks
I think the date accessed is not available in the data the plugin is using, file size should be possible.

@weak escarp This is what I was going to ask you in DMs
how do I make it so I can clip multiple replays of highlights and play them like a montage with a simple fade between clips?
Replay source does not support transitions between replays
That's ok, I'm more looking for how to clip multiple replays and play them, I don't mind if it just cuts between the replays 🙂
You can set the amount of replays that are stored in a replay source
Be aware that it take a lot of memory to store multiple replays
This does not seem OBS plugin related to me, so you should use #windows-support in that case
Ah gotcha, thanks for the clarification 🙂
I got deckboard, but it's not connecting to my OBS webhook...
I have another tool sucessfully connected to my OBS but deckboard is just spamming "OBS disconnected" message
@weak escarp I have multiple replays saved but it pauses after the first one, why is this?
Or how can I fix it?
set "End Action" to one off the all options
I've done that, but it is still pausing after the first replay. Here are my settings.
Not sure if this is a plugin question or not but I'll ask here first - is there a way to get the Twitch docks working for a development build? I don't see them when I build it myself
It would be something for #development
Figured it out from searching through Discord history - dev builds don't include a Twitch OAuth token (for obvious reasons) so need to register your own app and pass it in at build time TWITCH_CLIENTID="<snip>" TWITCH_HASH=0 ./CI/build-macos.sh --bundle
I assume this is not relevant for you, but on the off chance that it is, and you were unaware.
You can add custom browser docks, and point them at the same stuff. Unless you are testing the integration itself, that would probably suffice I would assume
You can easily extract the official client ID out of the application without any extra tools, but I won't disclose this method to the public
the google auth is at least much more secure
im having an issue when after the file was installed, i see the advanced scene switcher and when clicked, im missing all the options at the top of the advanced switcher menue
only have general, macro, network and scene group
IIRC, read the plugin changelog, this is normal.
i need to access media to auto switch to a scene once a video clip in one scene ends.
if there isnt an option, i can not do it. ive copied files and moved them and i even did the auto installer and im getting the same outcome
plugin changelog?
Advanced Scene Switcher changelog:
https://github.com/WarmUpTill/SceneSwitcher/releases
i literally dont have any of that after install
You complain about having less tabs in Advanced Scene Switcher and I'm sure this was explained in the changelog.
im a first time user, came from streamlabs. just needed the help. thanks
Hi guys i am currently trying to use a plugin called AUBURN
yes its a vst
for changing voice
i am using the video capture for obs to do this
but it wont work
Does anyone know and can help?
I had no issues applying the free version as a 2.x VST filter on my microphone
The tabs are hidden by default as they’re all covered w/ the macros functions now. You can still enable them on one of the menus though. I think it’s just a box you check.
The tabs are deprecated. Should really be using macros 🙂
is it possible to get brian TTS without the help of external browser sources?
I'm using kruiz control right now but I'm limited to my windows TTS (which sound crap) and the online ones which aren't very good either
only thing I found was a license, 55 pounds to get the TTS for download
I have a problem, I installed Tuna but I don't see it in OBS Tools. I've tried ZIP, doesn't work either. It just won't show. (i cannot English, Google does that)

it looks like 1.8.0 and above is intended for obs 28.0 only. Try installing the 1.6.0 release
https://github.com/univrsal/tuna/releases/tag/v1.6.0
😄
you'll be able to upgrade tuna to 1.8.1 when obs 28.0 will be released
i understand, thank you very much, many have the problem but none knew the solution
yeah, the plugin's page isn't very clear on the fact 1.8.0 is intended for obs 28
Not sure if this is plug-in or audio problem. But I installed Own3d setup everything. Tested alerts and they worked in test on stream. But the audio only comes out of the laptop speakers. I need it through my headset. I know normally you would paste a link in obs and check let OBS handle sound and adjust the advanced audio to monitor everything. But since Own3d is all plug and play there is no link and nothing in the audio mixer to adjust. Any thoughts?
According to answer from Own3d I just received there is no browser source for the alert sounds. So how do I route the audio? Sorry I’m new to streaming.
this sounds like a better question for Own3d. if it doesn't show up in advanced audio properties and isn't a browser source in OBS, i would not be sure.
if it is a browser source, you can check the "control audio via OBS" box in the properties.
Yes I’ve done this before with stream labs. That and advanced audio checking monitor and output. I asked own3d they just told me there is no browser source and that was it. Not much help.
well if the people who made the plugin can't answer......
Well thanks for your time. I might just have to suck it up and go back to stream labs. Shame because Own3d layouts and setup was really nice.
that's weird either way though. i have no experience w/ their plugin unfortunately.

try setting your monitoring device in settings>audio to your headset
i thought i might be able to route the audio on the laptop from speakers to headset in windows. Im using an Xbox series x for game play with a capture card a chat link cable so im not directly plugged into the audio jack. i could see if thats an option though
so the headset is plugged into your xbox?
it routes from xbox to capture. Then you plug in the El gato chat link into the capture card via a 3.5 mm audio jack. then you plug the chat link into your controller and it has a female split that you plug you headphones into. sadly its the only way to capture game chat from people outside the xbox platform.
yeah i'm just not seeing a way to send any audio from your PC to your xbox headset which isn't connected to it.
thats what i was thinking.
the only coonection to the pc/headset is the hdmi cable that links the capture to the pc
thanks for your time i appreciate it
Hi. I’m windows 10 64bit and trying to use TUNA in OBS but cannot figure out how to make it work. At all. I read the instructions and it just isn’t happening. Is there just a simple video showing TUNA being downloaded and installed? Bc I’m lost. I’m a bit newer to adding plugins to OBS so it feels a bit daunting
this actually solved the problem. thank you
Heyy,
I install the own3d's plugin, but alerts, labels and chat are on the folder "obsolete" and I can't use them
Could someone help me please ?
Thanks a lot
You're going to have to speak with them as that's more of their thing.
That and I'm yet to see a regular or frequenter happen to use it.
Is there any plug-in that can help me blur any moving object or text
StreamFX can probably do what you want. Would recommend sticking with the "dual filter" blur, as its way less heavy on the GPU
Anyone can help me create an h265 pipeline? just an everyday joe here
are you sure you want to do that? Why do you prefer hevc over h264?
Also, any particual reason you posted in this channel? Are you using a plugin to achieve it currently?
Oh apologies, i am using the Gstreamer plugin, and i need a Gstreamer pipeline . So the reason why h265 is in the camera im using it gives me the best image quality. I already have a pipeline for an h264 that i found reading the forums and i need help modifying it for h265
rtspsrc location=rtspt://admin:admin1234@192.168.0.3:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0 latency=40 ! rtpjitterbuffer latency=0 ! rtph264depay ! h264parse ! d3d11h264dec ! video.
Here are my IP camera settings
Encode Mode : H265
Smart Codec : Off
Resolution : 1920x1080 (1080P)
Frame Rate : 60
Bit Rate Type : CBR
Bitrate : 8192 // highest it allows me
I Frame Interval : 60 // lowest it allows me
SVC : 1(off)
so all you would need is to modify the later section to parse/depay/demux/decode h265 then, yes?
yes and to be honest i really dont know what those things do, i just want to get the best image i can get from the camera at the lowest latency possible
for me gStreamer is often times a lot of experimentation, as I dont always understand what gets auto handeled and what does not. Start by replacing the h264 parts of the pipeline.
https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/rtp/rtph265depay.html?gi-language=c
https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/videoparsersbad/h265parse.html?gi-language=c
https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/d3d11/d3d11h265dec.html?gi-language=c
I tried reading what these things are , too bad the gstreamer documentation dont explain what it does
reading the documentation what is a GStreamer good and bad plugins?
should i not use the bad ones?
when they say bad, think of it as uhm.. Risky, incomplete, not optimal.
I use them all the time 😄
most likely you dont have to worry too much about this. Just slap them in as replacements for the h264 ones, and pray it works out 😂 @tough fulcrum
It just qualify the level of maintenance/look of the code but they work.
Does anyone know of any fixes for issues with OBS ShaderfilterVersion 1.21. When I apply some effects to a scene they crash my OBS. I have seen tutorials online using these same filters without issue and am wondering if theres anything im missing?
I already went home for the day, i will test them out tomorrow 🙂
Thank you for the help, will comeback tomorrow if there are problems
Due to a number of incompatibilities with OBS 27.2 and newer, we are no longer able to provide support for instances of OBS with the StreamElements plugin (SE.live) installed.
If you need help with StreamElements products or services, please join their Discord server or submit a support ticket as we cannot provide further assistance here.
Hello, is there a plugin that, for example, you enter the giveaways command, a person who wants to participate enters "ticket" and shows giveaway and how much is left?
You would run that stuff through someone like streamelements or streamlabs + their chatbots
Or do it locally with something like streaamer.bot
does anyone have any resources (besides the obs documentation itself) for making an obs plugin?
The official OBS API documentation, plugin template on Github, source code of the plugins that come built into OBS, source code of plugins available from the Resources forum, Discord chat history of this server. Those are about all of the resources available.
okay. i just cloned the obs-plugintemplate but ran into an issue with cmake not finding the package configuration file provided by libobs. haven't make any changes yet and just opened it up.
Hello, the option of custom browser panels has disappeared, where can I find them again?
Docks in OBS can be managed from the Docks menu in the main OBS window. You can toggle docks on and off, or lock or unlock docks to prevent moving and editing, as well as add custom browser-based docks here.
You can also reset the UI from this menu to return your docks to their original state (Docks > Reset UI).
It should be there in Docks

One sec
When you uninstall and reinstall, make sure you DONT check the box for removing scenes and settings

To cleanly remove SE.Live:
- Uninstall SE.Live
- Uninstall OBS Studio (make sure that "User Settings" is not selected)
- Install OBS Studio again from https://obsproject.com/
Your settings will be saved unless you have selected to delete them during removal.
I really appreciate the help, I'll do it right now and I'll tell you if it worked or not
Welcome 🙂
Really, thanks so much
It worked?
It has worked
Awesome
Can Gstreamer reduce camera noise? or are there any plugin/filter that can reduce camera noise?
if you have an RTX GPU from NVIDIA, broadcast has a de-noising filter i believe.
The only thing that I have lost is a script, I have recovered several by re-downloading but there is one called RepeatMedia.lua that I can't find anywhere, this one was dedicated to creating a loop of social networks
Is broadcast an alternative to OBS?
no, you can use it with OBS.
ahhh , but sucks though im using GTX 1050 for the streaming setup :/
are you able to control the lighting? If so, better lighting will probably solve that issue 🙂 I would suggest always doing what you can physically before slapping a bunch of filters on stuff (goes for both audio and video)
Sadly no, adding more lighting is going to be more expensive than buying a rtx card in my situation, i cant even replace the camera :/
Is it really good though?
i've never used that filter on it but what Flaeri said would be a much more effective solution
but yeah, I dont know of any gst video noise reduction filers. Are you sure you can't tune the camera a bit? Its an IP / security cam I assume?
yes, i have been playing with the limited settings it have, this is the best i can get
dosent seem that bad. Looks more like compression noise almost 🤔
The available encoders is H264,h264B,h264H,h265. I already set the bitrate to as high it lets me
Current setting
Encode Mode : H265
Smart Codec : Off
Resolution : 1920x1080 (1080P)
Frame Rate : 60
Bit Rate Type : CBR
Bitrate : 8192 // highest it allows me
I Frame Interval : 60 // lowest it allows me
SVC : 1(off)
are you recording or streaming?
Streaming
I would pick VBR instead of CBR, and if its still bad, try lowering the resolution to see if that helps.
Could always reduce the framerate as well. Do you really need 60fps for this?
Wow changing to VBR there are some improvements
Sadly i have to switch to CBR 😦 video to audio delay is not consistent
the rate control should not impact av sync 🤔 I guess its possible that the bitrate is too much for the connection, and lag is causing dropped frames, and thats what causes the sync issue perhaps
wait maybe that was just gstreamer acting up and needed a refresh after the setting change. I will try test again
i have 1 gig networking, and the camera is on local network so network connection should not be a problem
Does SE Live still cause major issues with OBS?
currently, it can have major issues, yes
especially if you're updating from a previous version of SE Live
the latest SE Live released yesterday does improve some things in certain ways, but it's not quite where it needs to be yet
Gotcha, I used it in the past and remember having to uninstall it because of the issues. I mostly want it for the activity feed dock, etc. I probably won't install it then since it's still having issues. Thank you!
Docks -> Custom Browser Docks
Add the following new entry
- SE Activity Feed: https://yoink.streamelements.com/activity-feed
Log in to the new Dock
Add the following to Docks -> Custom Browser Docks- Media Request: https://obs.streamelements.com/mediarequest/bootstrap
When I add the custom dock it requires me to log in to twitch every single time I want to use it and after I log in it just sends me to the SE home page xD I don't wanna have to mess with it all the time.
Oh wait, I just used the "yoink" link and that bypassed all of that! thanks!
Does Remote Debugging for the Browser Source only work on localhost, or is there a way to get it to work on any PC on my LAN?
by default it only works on localhost/same machine afaik. Maybe there is a way to alter that behavior, will have a look 🙂
If not, then you'd have to do some crazy stuff I would not recommend 😅
okay cool, so "Past Rob" isnt an idiot 😄
well, at least on this case
hmm, it seems it was added, but it dosent work for me 😂
argh.. Its exclusive to --headless it seems
so that probably wont work
the comments int he code don't say as much
// Use the given address instead of the default loopback for accepting remote
// debugging connections. Should be used together with --remote-debugging-port.
// Note that the remote debugging protocol does not perform any authentication,
// so exposing it too widely can be a security risk.
const char kRemoteDebuggingAddress[] = "remote-debugging-address";
but it's certainly possible
whelp, seems I can't get it to work on anything by loopback, even when specifying headless and user-data-dir, so I give up 😄
Hi there, it is any chance that using the Source Record plugin to get multiple sized files ?
the one recorded from camera it is bigger as the one recorded from the screen, the composed one is more or less some frames as the file got from camera
I've searched on the net and there was no mention of any kinda bug as this
any ideas what can be done about ?
Necesito ayuda con esto alguien me ayuda ?

Stay in #windows-support and state what help you want with your webcam
That was for another user.
Describe your issue there, if someone knows how to help they will respond. No one will respond until you describe the problem first.
so my webcam right, when u look at it before u recorde it looks fine then, when u recorde and watch it it looks sqished
so u have to adjust it so it looks right on the recording
No, describe in #windows-support
This channel is for plugin issues and development
Good morning everyone. I used to have twitch health in obs. A plugin crashes and I had to reinstall everything . But I don't see it anymore. How can I add it to obs? Plz
with a custom browser dock
Do you know where I get the link to use custom browser dock ?
isn't there a way to popout this "stream health" window?
From twitch Inspector no and I don't see it on twitch admin either .
just checked, you can bu clicking the dots on the top right
Where ? I don't see it. Is it via twitch itself ? Could you give me the link ? Plz
👍

Can anyone help me with source record I am really struggling with it
It's a filter you add to sources you want to record
Example video from the resource page - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEHgNa49f6c
I'm having issues getting NDI to communicate between Windows and Linux.
I have my gaming PC running windows and a Ubuntu Dekstop VM on Truenas Scale.
I have disabled the firewall on both sides for testing -
My windows machine is able to detect and display the server's NDI source, but not the other way around - I can't figure out what the issue is since all traffic incoming and outgoing is allowed on both devices
@slim torrent prob better channel. Just general setup. It's been a couple months since I last played with it, but it seems like there is a fair bit with that plugin interface that maybe I just didn't have the patience to learn
I may revisit it and see if I was just being a blockhead. But my only use case would be to have a full window height dock to maximize use of space
I only really used it to experiment with the dock corner feature, but otherwise I don't have plugins installed pretty much ever.
Now off topic for this channel, but I do wonder if maybe a few layout options were available and a layout selction(limited to something like 2 or 3) was presented to users in a fashion similar to the fasncy zones pre-made layouts.
I know you've shared images before of how the interface cam technically ne configured with QT.
That is something I had proposed while sketching out the feature, but still wasn't too happy with any of it.
It's a tricky balance of feature + simplicity
Yeah. There are technically 12 layouts possible.
do you know if theres talk of them fixing NVENC new not working with the source record plugin
...I was redirected here from audio support. Sorry for the copy paste:
Hey there, I'm using the source record plugin & I'm running into an annoying issue.
I added the filter to my cam & wanted to record my cam but use a different audio for it (so that I can link my mic's input to my cam's feed)
I've tested using different tracks, I've disabled global audio devices & added them individually to the relevant scenes.
The issue: Despite all this (before & after the changes alike) multiple different audio sources are being recorded through the source record...It's picking up everything instead of only what it's set to pick up...
Some sources are set to monitor & output, others are set to monitor off, despite this difference both types are being picked up regardless.
I'd like to add that I'm using the same filter for another source & this issue is not happening with the other source whatsoever...
Does anyone know of a plugin to add multiple copies of your camera
@desert peakstreamfx source mirror
When I searched for it on GitHub the download leads to a patron
!streamfx
If you are looking for more information or support for the StreamFX plugin, please visit the forum resource page.
Hello is there a plugin ffor a custom chatbox to look retro? Like retro font when chat talks and pops up on screen. 🤓
there isn't a plugin for that but there's custom CSS
Oh so it does have to be CSS
well, CSS allows you to change the style of a browser source, so it can achieve what you are looking for
For sure. I'm just a pleb that prefers plugins. But i'll do some quick CSS research and see if I can figure it out! Thanks! @fossil wyvern
There seens to be a builtin in basic one in SE overlays. Which works just as I needed. Ty again though for the help. Much appreciated 🤓
Can't connect OBS Remote control after updating to OBS Studio 28.0 Release Candidate.
28.0 uses obs-websockets 5.0 which isn't retrocompatible and will require services to update to it
28.0 comes with a pre-installed web socket, so it doesn't require to be installed separately and I have all the troubleshooting mentioned on the Github page.
Is obs remote updated to use ws 5?
yes, but that's websockets 5.0. so unless your "OBS remote-control" updated itself to be compatible with 5.0, it won't work
otherwise, you'll need to also install the 4.9-compat
till it updates to be 5.0-compatible
I
I will check with 4.9-compat

How can I use advanced scene switcher to start and to stop recording, as opposed to switch the scene, when audio is above or below a threshold?
thanks!
and obviously make another macro to stop it. but i think you get the idea.
yep
Sorry about this but anyone up for helping me with this? I'd appreciate any guidance...
I didn't know Source Record had any sort of audio functionality
Sounds like you want win-capture-audio
In the setup section for source record you can actually select a different audio yeah, seems to be a bit buggy though
that's a different plugin to the application audio capture right?
also thanks for your time!
there you go
this is for my cam & the hyper x is my mic
You have other audio devices/sources using Track 1 as well I assume
tried other tracks, made no difference
only one other source is using the track 1
Well I get the impression that it's going to include the audio on the selected track plus what you pick from the dropdown
tried selecting "none" on track and then no audio whatsoever was being picked up
So if it's playing back a bunch of other audio that makes me think it's also included on Track 1
Would you post a screenshot of your track selections under Edit > Advanced Audio Properties
is there a global obs settign somewhere for the tracks?
Ah. I am an idiot
yep
I see my problem now
I lacked eyes
To be fair that window doesn't exactly jump out at you
They're all selected for every single track 🙃 cue curb your enthusiasm
Thank you for your time and your politeness hahaha
it usually is isn't it, I can't wait for the day where I have a genuine issue that isn't just an oversight on my end 🤣 Thank you loads!
Does anyone know why Own3d pro is just stuck on a white screen for me when I press on it on tools?
Is there a way to use advanced scene switcher (or some other macro program that can trigger based on audio) such that OBS is constantly recording, but will keep the cache of just the last 3 seconds, so that when you trigger 'start' recording with the macro, you start the recording and also have the recording of the previous 3 seconds?
So basically is there a plugin that can set the recording start time to 3 seconds before you start recording?
there is not. this is what replay buffer does but it wouldn't work as you described as it will only grab the last however many seconds you want.
interesting feature though, may be worth mentioning in #ideas-suggestions
Yo guys, is there any news on Elgato's stream deck plugin for OBS 28.0?
Best to ask Elgato. Up to them to make their plugin compatible with the upcoming OBS update.
what you can do is have obs start replay buffer on startup, with a duration of 3 seconds, and have a macro that saves replay buffer when you start recording. that'll give you two files, one of the 3 seconds and the other of the recording, which you can stich together in post
Thanks dude
Well, of course.
I was just asking because maybe somebody had some info. Turns out i was right and there is a download available!
Any updated version of 4 obs virtual cameras?
Pretty sure zero development is being put into that plugin
Note the giant deprecated message at that link
because of this
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/obs-virtualcam.949/
and also, peep the author on that one 😄
Oh ha yea
I shoulda scrolled a touch further I suppose
Good call
Wait
Fenrirs doesn't get updated either does it?
no
Didn't think so
exeldro's vcam filter might
isn't this a feature that will exist within OBS anyways?
or is that not a thing yet.
Not a thing as far as I know
yes, in 28, kinda
ok yeah that's what i thought.
Multiple outputs at once?
you can specify a specific source or scene as your main virtualcam
yes
next step: built in source record.
the purpose is basically to get around DirectShow exclusivity
The vcam output update is a huge step toward iso recording
indeed, the backend changes are implemented, mostly. i think.
UX will still be a nightmare.
I just didn't realize you could currently have multiple outputs at once with it
BOUNTY!

UX will still be a nightmare
though if you have 10k (or whatever that would be) lying around I'm sure Fenrir would happily take it
I am not planning to update it for Qt6, no. All I did previously was fix dependency issues anyway, I made no other changes. Someone else is welcome to I guess, but I'm not going to since we have native support now.
Just in case there was any confusion left '.')b
Guess that ones gonna need to be marked as deprecated as well huh
I believe the plan is to get a KB article or wiki page up by release that has the status of all the major plugins that are expected to be updated.
Since we've been tracking it anyway, so putting it out on a page for everyone isn't much trouble.
Figured it'd be worth asking. I haven't seen any plugins that are testing AV1 hardware encode yet, but if there are could someone point me in their direction?
do you own a GPU with hardware encode?
Yep, installed an Arc A380 today.
I'll be keeping an eye out in that case!
Hi, im having a problem with win-capture-audio not picking up any of my audio, ive downgraded obs to 27.2.3 and ive tried both 2.2.3 & 2.2.2 audio setups and neither of them are working, im not sure what to do
screenshot the properties window for one of your audio capture sources and send a log.
- Old Version (27.2.3)
- Windows 10 1809 (EOL)
- Mismatched Sample Rates
- Not Admin
- No Output Session
AMD Ryzen 7 5700X - OK! / GeForce RTX 2060 - OK!
You need to update to the latest feature update of Windows 10 with the Update Assistant from Microsoft, which you can get by hitting the big blue "Update Now" button here and running the tool:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
The APIs needed just aren't there on your build of Windows 10, so no OBS-side tweaking will fix the issue. Once Windows is updated, then get OBS Studio and the plug-in up to the latest versions.
Updating your Nvidia GPU drivers would be a good idea. Changing those monitor refresh rates to 120/60 from 144/75 due to the integer multiple rule of frame pacing is recommended as well.
how does one set up source record? i tried to record a single scene and source record always crashes and/or corrupts the scene collection
Not using NVENC (new), correct?
@mortal harbori add a new filter, choose "nvenc", quit obs-studio, it doesn't crash, but on next run i don't see the main window; obs64.exe exists and logs things
Send a log
@mortal harborfrom after it breaks?
after asking, i felt slightly dumb, because duh, why you'd ask for a log where i'm not replicating the issue
this is my scene collection before source record changed it
and this is my log and scene collection after
- Old Version (27.2.3)
- Windows 10 21H2 (OK)
- No Output Session
- No Scenes/Sources
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X - OK! / GeForce GTX 1080 Ti - OK!
dang so it really doesn't even load at all after that.
you'll need to run a portable install of OBS w/ only source record installed and test. there's just way too many plugins on that install.
can't replicate this issue when running no other plugins and a fresh scene collection https://obsproject.com/logs/ZPPryDabKCJLCfOA
- Mismatched Sample Rates
- Windows 10 21H2 (OK)
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X - OK! / GeForce GTX 1080 Ti - OK!
i figured as much. unsure how to troubleshoot, short of you adding back plugins to the portable install one by one.
@mortal harbor @weak escarp i found why source record has always been crashing for me
my filename formatting pattern is %CCYY.%MM.%DD\%CCYY_%MM_%DD_%hh-%mm-%ss, which means a folder with the current date is created for every calendar day; source record will crash if i try to use that and start the output
@weak escarp should i write about this on github?
hey guys ive tried so many fixes for obs plugin for my stream deck does anyone have any fixes\
- Release Candidate OBS Version (28.0.0-rc2)
- Windows 11 21H2 (OK)
- No Output Session
12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700K (not in benchmark DB) / GeForce RTX 3070 - OK!
does it work if you're not on the beta?
i dont believe so
bcus i remember trying it and it didnt
both obs and and my streamdeck are on my ssd
well, can you try, because it's unlikely that the current version of the plugin is fit for the beta
https://obsproject.com/logs/6DDhfy2Yibe5cCL6 need help with obs plug in
- Windows 11 21H2 (OK)
- No Output Session
12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700K (not in benchmark DB) / GeForce RTX 3070 - OK!
welll, you don't have the streamdeckplugin installed
wdym
as far as I know, streamdeck needs an obs plugin to communicate with obs
yes, but you don't have the stream deck plugin installed in your obs plugins
how would i do that or check?
the stream deck application installs it automatically when it detects OBS, but only while installing the stream deck software
it would show up under the Tools menu in OBS
according to log it ain't here, so smth must have gone tits up I guess
three possibilities when that happens
- the user installed OBS **after **installing the stream deck sofrware
- OBS is installed in a non-standard non-default location
- OBS is in portable mode
is there no way to manually install the plugin?
since it's an obs plugin it has to be opensource, no?
instructions to manually install are here: https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/7262866127757-Elgato-Stream-Deck-Troubleshooting-OBS-Integration-

Hello. When I download this plugin, I am not able to locate the plug in in the "Docks".
This might sound like a joke but I'd love to write a plugin for a friend of mine that simply changes the button label of "start streaming" to "start screaming" - is that doable with the API?
@misty pebble no need for a plugin, open obs-studio\data\obs-studio\locale\en-US.ini and mess with whatever you want
Oh perfect, thank you!
( i dont know enough C++ (or any) to really know what im looking at here, im a JS/Node guy )
so I grabbed the code for the OBS SceneTree plugin off the GitHub, and a search shows that there isnt much explicitly stating QT5.
The CMakeLists.txt file at the top level has...
find_package(Qt5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Widgets)
and
target_link_libraries(${LIBRARY_NAME}
PUBLIC
LibObs::libobs
obs-frontend-api
Qt5::Widgets
PRIVATE
)
...and the README.md has it mentioned in the package manager installation instructions
I'm assuming I cant just swap the Qt5 to Qt6 and be done with it (once i figure out how to set up everything to actually building this thing).
anyone got a good reference for the major changes/gotchas with migrating from QT5 to 6?
See this comment, it links most of the changes we had to make in OBS https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/discussions/6481#discussioncomment-3312039
It’s mostly minor changes, if at all
Swapping out Qt5 to Qt6 in the build scripts should reveal if you have to make changes (since building will fail if you use functions that got removed)
How to fix owned pro plug in on the OBS 28.0.0?
Ask own3d
I did and they told me it was an obs problem
OBS 28 is still in development.
wait for a full release, then they'll admit it's not, then they'll fix it
Own3d may not have updated their plugin for 28 yet
3rd party plugins are up to the 3rd party to provide support for
Ok
Did they explain exactly what we needed to look at? As far as I've seen, their plugin will need to be updated to support OBS 28. If there is another issue outside that preventing them from updating, they haven't reported it to us, and will likely need to.
But as far as we are aware, they will need to update their plugin to support the new version.
just like the game capture hook in v25, everyone will pretend there is no issue until you do a 28.0 release, then they'll take a few weeks to fix their side
is there a shader/plugin/script that gives particle effects like in those trap nation videos
