want me to send the log before re installing the plugin or after?

#

cuz I just deleted the old version

mortal harbor
#

huh? install the version you just said you had and if it doesn't work, send a log.

ivory owl
#

alright one moment

#

I just reinstalled it and it worked WHATTT

#

You got to be kidding me

#

Thanks for your time but some how it is working all of the sudden

#

after the 10th installation of today

#

apparently I should have left it install in this folder as shown
C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins\StreamFX

#

but previously it was on C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins

mortal harbor
#

rule of thumb is to always leave that sort of stuff on what it defaults to 🙂

ivory owl
#

the weird thing is it was on default, which was this screenshot

#

but some how it automatically changed to another default folder

mortal harbor
#

if you read the release/install notes for streamfx i think this is covered actually.

ivory owl
#

Nope

mortal harbor
#

the part right below that was most likely your issue. if you just upgraded and didn't uninstall first.

ivory owl
#

Yeah it could be

Is there a good green screen plugin? I'm aware of the chroma filter but it won't do what I need. I've found xsplit vcam and it's fairly solid. Just didn't know if there was a plugin I was unaware of or an "internal" way to do it.

The redistributables required for the NVIDIA Noise and Background Removal filters can be found here: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/broadcasting/broadcast-sdk/resources/

Once both are installed,

The NVIDIA Noise Removal option will appear as part of the "Noise Suppression" filter, alongside RNNoise and Speex.
The NVIDIA Background Removal option will appear as its own filter under "Effect Filters."

#

How resource intensive is it?

dark sapphire
#

at most like 3-4% GPU? generally less as it's primarily using the ML cores

#

might vary per person, worth experimenting at least

#

but either way, if you want a fake green screen, you have to sacrifice performance somewhere

The reality is the younger generation that I’m trying to target is only on TikTok, they don’t care about YouTube live, they don’t care about getting the twitch app just to watch us, they want something in stream. I know about the data harvesting and frankly so do many but there’s good money to be made on the app so 🤷‍♂️

obsidian agate
#

Twitch does not at all suggest 8000kbps anywhere. People just started poking the ingest servers and learned that things -seem- okay up to 8000, possibly forgetting that audio tracks add on top of that

saludos, alguien sabe algo sobre el plug in de NDI?

twin basalt
#

Is there a plug-in out there that can take songs from a folder and play them while displaying album art, song and artist.
It would get the information from drawing from the metadata.
I'm assuming something like this has to exist. 😅
If anyone knows a plug-in like that let me know I'd like to use it. 🤗

Hii I’ve been trying to install the move transition to obs but for some reason it isn’t being installed properly/ it isn’t working. It used to work but recently with the new updates it hasn’t. It’s been updated recently as well. Any tips?

@fossil wyverndont know if you remember my previous problem but isnt this the same file that gave me issues?

fossil wyvern
#

wait lemme do some archeology

random musk
#

you had me delete this same source-record.dll file

mortal harbor
#

there isn't an official NDI release for OBS v28 yet. if this is an alpha, you'd need to report that to the plugin dev and not here.

do i unzip the file then put it in C:\Program Files\obs-studio\ or just put it straight?

fossil wyvern
random musk
#

fossil wyvern

then use the installer

mortal harbor

yes everything in my message still applies.

Does anyone know if its possible (or if theres a plugin) make scenes or captures do what an Image Slideshow does?..... So like maybe I have visual input1,2,3,4 (but video sources, not images) etc..... then in a scene that just keeps automatically changing whats being displayed in a box or on screen

And it IS updated to OBS 28. Been using it myself

weak fjord

#

i don't think we should be recommending a pre-release version without letting everyone know that there isn't any sort of support offered for it. there isn't even an issues tab on the github page to report anything.

#

that being said, i know plenty are using it without issues.

weak fjord

yeah ill just wait for the full version. rather not deal with any potential issues

wide sinew
#

Hi everyone, Is there anyway to multiplatform with each stream having their own overlays ?

analog ruin
wide sinew
#

Yeah but that will take more POWER 😅 is there any way to minimize that ?

#

Like if you can have the encoding of the gameplay and cam from one OBS To the other ?

analog ruin
#

not really. In order for an overlay to exist, it needs to composite and render, before output. Then you'd need each to be encoded seperately. I dont think there is much you can do here

analog ruin
wide sinew
#

Okay thank you very much 💪 But it would be Awesome if in the future that exist for the casters

vale vine

Render pipeline work seemingly has already been started which may help with that. But not sure it would fully be applicable here

To capture only audio from specific programs:

Windows

  • add an Application Audio Capture (BETA) source and select the program to capture
  • alternatively, you can also use the win-capture-audio plugin on Windows 10 2004 and later

macOS

  • macOS 13 (Ventura): add a macOS Screen Capture source, use Window or Application, and select the app to capture
  • for previous versions of macOS, follow the macOS Desktop Audio Capture Guide

Hey friends. I'm on Mac OS 12.6 and recently upgraded to OBS 28. My Elgato Stream Deck is still working great with the upgraded plugin, but I tried updating my closed captioning plugin to support OBS 28, https://github.com/ratwithacompiler/OBS-captions-plugin/releases/tag/v0.28, no dice. It's just not picked up and my logs don't seem to indicate any issues, https://obsproject.com/logs/TvPhWJe4L0P0YlLo. I've also made certain that in my Security & Privacy section there's nothing I need to enable for that plugin to run since it's not from a trusted source. I'm curious if folks have other suggestions?

Hello! New to the discord so direct me if this is the wrong channel.
But I was wondering if it's within the realm of possibility to write a plug-in to allow me to change the paramaters of the "color correction" filter on a certian layer with a midi controller.

In other words, change the Gamma, contrast, brightness, etc. From a midi controller with knobs or sliders.

I've stumbled across a pretty cool way to use OBS with some analog video equipment and I'm gonna be doing some live visuals, and if I could adjust things with physical knobs instead of using my mouse for a slider, it'd be amazing!

hypers Penwywern to the rescue.

fossil wyvern
#

the plugin does it more cleanly than the script as far as I remember, but you'd have to revert versions of OBS cause that plugin ain't gonna work on OBS 28

last yew
harsh topaz
#

Sure, just get the portable version.

fossil wyvern
#

you could, but I'd suggest first trying with the script

#

if it doesn't work for you, check out the plugin

harsh topaz
#

Back up your scene collections before you start messing with multiple OBS versions though.

#

Just personal experience. Better spend a few MB just in case you mess something up and need to go back to untainted version.

#

Is there a way to "freeze" a scene via a plugin?

nimble temple
#

I'd like to freeze it temporarily while my cameras move (to prevent motion sickness), then un-freeze when the move completes

nimble temple
#

Will look into this

harsh topaz
nimble temple
#

👀 is that a plugin?

oblique yewBOT
nimble temple
#

Cool, thanks!

harsh topaz
#

Ignore the name. It's basically a macro plugin

#

=> If this happens
==> Then do this.

#

Without knowing your exact details I'd think:
Add freeze filter to camera.

Advance scene switcher

  1. If this happens
  2. Enable filter
  3. Wait 3 seconds
  4. Disable filter
nimble temple
#

I think I'm gonna need to make my own plugin at the end of the day (basically I need to make it so people can queue up camera motions as scenes, and have the transition button freeze, pan, and unfreeze), but it is always helpful to see similar things in action

harsh topaz
#

Making your own plugin for that seems excessive.

#

Get bot commands to fire events in your OBS that does what you set the reward to do.

#

It is work, but it's way less work than setting up a plugin environment and building a plugin.

nimble temple
#

Hm, possibly

#

The issue is simply that I need to make a semi-complex system simple for non tech-savvy individuals

#

Which is easier said than done

harsh topaz
#

Well it very much depends on the specifics of your situation and what you're trying to do of course.

#

Do I have to set up a Macro for each Alert in Advanced Scene Switcher if I want my music to stop when my Alerts go off? Can someone please help me with this? This is like my fourth time asking.

harsh topaz
#

Then use Adv-ss to detect when that audio input goes above X volume

#

and when that happens, lower music volume.

#

Wait for it to go down again, increase music volume.

#

2 macros. One that checks "If volume over" and another "If volume under"

latent oak
harsh topaz
#

But I can see why it's something you might want especially if you dont use mic and just blast music.

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

latent oak
#

I do use a mic though.

#

I like this ¯_(ツ)_/¯ 😄

harsh topaz
#

Well, like I said; easiest is to route the things into its own audio input. Then you have control over that input which should only alerts.

#

I used to do something similar a couple years back when I streamed.

I'm not sure why, but today a lot of my OBS plugins have vanished from my Tools bar.

I can still use Scale to Sound, and Move Transition... But I can't access plugins like Transition Table and Source Copy if they've poofed from my Tools menu.

Any ideas? I don't know how to troubleshoot this

#

Just the ones that are absent from the Tools menu? Orrr also the ones that don't go in the Tools menu in the first place but appear to be functioning right?

#

Oh i see it was only source copy and transition table that failed in the log

#

@mortal harbor I uninstalled Gradient Source, Source Copy, and Transition Table using add/remove programs. Then I re-installed them. Gradient is the only one that's working.
Do you think it's a version problem? I'm using OBS 27... Then again, I've been using that for a week or two now and I haven't had any problems with Copy Source up until now

mortal harbor
#

the ones you just installed that aren't working were probably built for OBS 28

#

any reason you haven't upgraded? might help with future compatibility.

plush saffron
#

Short answer is that OBS28 doesn't work with the stable version of streamFX, and using the alpha version of streamFX made things break a lot.

mortal harbor
#

got it

plush saffron
#

I guess I'll try installing older versions of these plugins until something clicks.
Weird. Source Copy was working fine with OBS27 earlier

#

Heyyy good suggestion, they're back in the tools menu
Thank you

Thread 43F0: tiny_tubular_task_thread (Crashed)

it dosent belong to a specific plugin. It belongs to obs. Usually means something (a plugin, or a script) is holding a ref it shouldnt be

#

too many threads 😩 Ran out of size to print the whole log :\ I dont think the cause is visible in that crash

mortal harbor
#

i see these plugins:

19:07:08.850:     move-transition.dll
19:07:08.850:     dir-watch-media.dll```
plus the zoom and follow lua script. you could try disabling/removing each and seeing if the crash disappears.
#

the move transition plugin that you have installed is pretty out of date. the dir-watch-media one doesn't show any version number in the log so i'm not sure.

glossy hatch
#

tbh I'm afraid if I remove them now I will lose all data (settings) I applied, so I guess I will just save your message for the future and delete them when I don't need it anymore

mortal harbor

you can always drag them back in and this won't remove any settings.

glossy hatch
#

Ok let me try

#

I can't reproduce this crash anymore (haven't deleted any plugins) xD

analog ruin
#

only happens on shutdown, right?

glossy hatch
analog ruin
#

make sure the python script is in use (make it follow a bit), then shut down, and see if it crashes. If yes, that would seem a likely candidate 🙂
Or maybe it was just unfortunate timing like you said 🙂

@boreal hearth what should I edit in layout.json to get rid of Durchblick showing the empty dock window on boot? I tried changing it to visible: false in both the first and 2nd like this in the layout.json:

    "Clean": [
        {
            "visible": false
        },
        {
            "visible": false
        }
    ]

But it still shows, even on a new/clean layout.json file. Is it a bug atm?

I’ve posted in the macossupport channel but they are saying it sounds like I’m missing a plug-in so I thought I would try here as well. This is a section of my latest log file. Stream crashes 5 or more times in a 3 hour stream. Goes down then reconnects. Started after I upgraded to latest version of OBS.

vagrant minnow

#

I thought that too. I’ve had my internet checked. They were just here yesterday. Monitored while I was streaming and I never dropped speed. Even when the stream disconnected my speeds were steady. My son streamed today using another stream software (that I don’t like and don’t want to use) and had no issues. I did the stream connection troubleshooting and tried every step in it. I’ve ruled out everything on my end, but can’t nail down why this is all of the sudden happening.

harsh topaz
#

If it's that re-producible, change things out until there's nothing but a single thing thats common denominator for it happening.

#

And make sure it's on clean OBS, no plugins.

unique turtle
#

It’s a clean version. Started after I updated OBS the last time so I deleted everything and started with a clean copy. Nothing else has changed. We’ve changed everything possible. Removing overlays and all the extras to make the stream as basic as possible. I can’t seem to pin down what’s causing it. It’s just frustrating. But I appreciate the feedback.

Hello, I am having a bit of trouble. I am trying to install obs ndi on my other destop, and I install it where obs is installed but for some reason it does not show up when I launch obs

#

I am not sure why this is happening. I have even done a clean install of obs and the obs ndi plugin, with no luck

#

i got one last thing to try

autumn iris
#

The weird thing is that the only plugin that is not being able to be installed at the moment is the plugin called OBS-NDI

#

When i install other plugins, everything works fine.

#

I have even made sure that I am installing it to the right place where I am launching obs.

#

hold up i migth have found the issue

lament leaf
#

Which version of OBS do you have?

autumn iris
#

Im using the newest version of 27. I think the problem is that i am working on a pc that justed installed windows 10 eariler this morning, so i think the issue is that I need to update the pc.

#

I think that is the issue and if it works after I update my pc, I will feel dumb ngl

autumn iris
#

So no luck on installing the plugin. I'm not sure what is going on because other plugins works just fine except one. I'm not sure what is going on but I have some things I want to try. IF anyone has any suggestions, please feel free to tell me.

harsh topaz
autumn iris
#

nope. I installed it to the folder that my OBS is installed into.

harsh topaz
#
  1. Close OBS
  2. Open .zip file with files.
  3. Open the top layer of OBS folder
  4. Drag drop
  5. Press "Yes overwrite"
  6. Open OBS.
#

Drag from left to right. In top folder. Drag both.

autumn iris
#

Nope that did not work. I even went into the bin folder and opened the obs from there instead of from the desktop to make sure I was launching the right version.

harsh topaz
#

Are you absolutely sure you're using the right plugin version with the right OBS version?

gaunt zealot
#

Any particular reason for using the .zip instead of the .exe installer?

#

The .exe will also grab the required NDI libraries

autumn iris
#

Also I am using OBS version 27.2.4 and I am using OBS-ndi version 4.9.0 which from my understanding works with OBS version above 25

harsh topaz
#

Should be, yes.

#

What's keeping you on v27?

autumn iris
#

because the plugin does not work on 28

#

lol

harsh topaz
#

There's 2 versions of the NDI plugin that works on v28

#

This is my v28

autumn iris
#

harsh topaz
#

Yes.

autumn iris
#

oh where do i get that version

#

I could try that

harsh topaz
#

One if a temp fix, other is alpha.

gaunt zealot
#

And are you trying to use NDI for local PC use or multi-PC?

harsh topaz
#

It's worth a shot if you download a v28 portable version.

If I'm reading that right if I figure out how to compile it, it should be working?

It's already build.

And it's more like 4.9.2 or so. It's not 4.9, 4.9 is for v27

edgy crest

Oh wait why is it not in releases then if it's fully built? Are devs still bug testing?

they haven't fully updated to v28 yet, the updated plugin is still in alpha and I'd rather not risk a crash etc while streaming

#

unless people have been using it and it seems fine?

fossil wyvern

people have been using it, but your concerns are perfectly valid

Yea. Alphas, especially with streamfx, are "use at your own peril".

Welcome to the OBS community support channel. If you have a question, go ahead and ask it, and if someone is available to help they'll respond. Try to be detailed, and provide a log if you are having issues with streaming/recording (Help -> Log Files -> Upload Current Log). Please be patient if someone doesn't respond right away!

I might give it a try. I only need the 3D transform filter so maybe the risk of an error is lower

#

Those are some good links, but keep in mind, most plugins will no longer be updated to work with v27, so you will be stuck with whatever their last v27 version was

#

They have home pages that explain what they all do

#

Welcome and good luck. If able though, update to v28 sooner than later so you are not stuck on an older version for too long.

#

It can, but its not specifically Lower Thirds

#

it just allows a source to always be rendered on top of everything else, even thru transitions

#

Its good for lower thirds, but also works for anything else (i’ve had mine set up with alerts, meme popups, etc)

#

Make sure if you do you only get the non-Alpha (pre-v0.12). 0.12 is for obs 28, 0.11.x is for v27

#

V28 plugins are, in the majority of cases, incompatible with v27 and visa-versa.

#

Its on their GitHub page in the Releases section. If you access from the top tab, it should go directly to the alpha (most recent release), if you go to the Releases section on the righthand side panel, v0.11 should be listed there

#

does the Alpha version of StreamFX include blur? Someone indicated they did not see it.

Yes, NDI is made by NewTek. You need to install their runtime. Make sure it's the same version as the one required by your plugin.

Glad it works :D NDI is always a bit of a tinkering game, especially with pre release versions of plugins.

fossil wyvern
#

so it's not supported, but it doesn't have anything "experimental"

cobalt cape
#

NDI is a genius tool for dual PC streaming and once it's setup it works like magic but man what a pain in the butt to troubleshoot software lol

mortal harbor
#

Depending on what you use it for you could also check out SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) Streaming. It might be easier if you just want to get a single feed (video & audio) from another PC, since it does not require plugins or runtimes to be installed. (SRT requires OBS Studio 25.0 or newer.)

I'm team if its not broke, don't fix it. I'm just as likely to break everything than simplify my dual pc streaming setup tbh it's also technically a triple pc setup.

The obs64.exe process on both PCs needs to have local LAN access. By default the Windows firewall will only give public internet access to OBS. If you didn't check that second box for local access when you first started OBS, NDI won't work. You'll have to fix the firewall rules afterwards.

OBS v28 includes obs-websocket v5, but if you need 4.x you can download the COMPAT plugin for v28.

It's also time to look for a new streaming PC here considering that your last driver update from Nvidia on that GeForce GT 750M was 425.31 from 2019, which technically wasn't even supported in OBS 27.2.x due to Nvidia Video SDK updates. Something with a Nvidia GTX 900-series or newer would be strongly recommended at this point.

isnt that the one you are telling me to use?

#

oohh ok ok

obsidian agate
#

Compat = compatibility

mortal harbor
obsidian agate
#

So its a 4.9.1 compatibility plugin so old websocket can still work, just in case apps dont get updated to v5 right away

fossil wyvern
mortal harbor
# mortal harbor yeah i know but its not that cheap where i live unfortunately

i see your original post mentioned an "encoding issue" preventing you from using v28. i'd strongly recommend troubleshooting that instead of dealing with all this weird confusing backwards compatibility stuff that will only continue to cause issues/confusion as time goes on.

EDIT: nevermind, reading some more of your posts it seems like your GPU might just be too old and not receive updates anymore.

#

thank you for the help

fossil wyvern
#

just a different one, compiled with QT5

obsidian agate
#

The names should really be different

fossil wyvern
mortal harbor
#

yeah it says int he importat notes: Only use this release with OBS Studio v27! Do not install this if you are using an OBS version other than v27

fossil wyvern
solar dust
#

There is a standalone v5 for OBS 27, v5 is included in OBS 28.
And a compat 4.9 version for each Qt versions. Qt5 for OBS 27 and Qt6 for OBS28.

obsidian agate
#

I get that now, I didn’t realize with 27 and 28 that they were both called “compat”. I took that naming to mean some sort of legacy compatibility while v5 was still being transitioned to

#

So with that, it would have made sense for v5 for v27 to be called v5-compat

#

But thats neither here nor there, today I learned 🙂

i'm on mac 12.5.1 monterey with an M1 chip, using OBS 28.0.3
I tried installing a plugin for OBS, but i have no idea where it went
it's not in the Plugins folder in the OBS app contents, and it just isn't on my computer, but it says the installation was successful...
any ideas?
For reference, this is the plugin i tried to install: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/waveform.1423/
got it from their github, installed Waveform_v1.5.0-rc1_MacOS_x86_64.pkg

#

this is the error that i get but the option that im sellecting for the encoder is the exact same as the one i use on obs 27 but it doesnt say new on obs 28 and evidently is cause of how old is the setup as i stated in the very first message i posted i can run it on x264 but again goes super super high so im gonna have to see if i can solve the plugin issue or just leave it as it is until i can upgrade to a new computer

just started it up tho

mortal harbor
#

yeah seems like it's loading fine in that log.

fossil wyvern
#

yup

mortal harbor
#

its just sad cause it used to work all fine before i tried updating to obs28 😦

#

but i really appreciate you all trying to help!

#

❤️

#

the problem stems from NVIDIA no longer providing new drivers.

errant geode
#

so where do i find the plugin? i'm still confused

mortal harbor
#

i've never used waveform. is it a source? filter?

fossil wyvern
#

looked at it, apparently it's a source

fossil wyvern
errant geode
#

oh my god it's right fucking there

#

alright apparently i just had to restart obs again

#

thank you both lol

fossil wyvern
#

yeah you have to restart after installing plugins

errant geode
#

i did though, apparently it just worked the second time

#

Why is it on MacOs some plugins end up in "/Library/Application Support/...." and some in "/Users/username/Library/Application Support/..."?

fossil wyvern
#

user vs global install I'd guess

oblique gate
#

Yes, but its not provided as an option at install time AFAIK and some plugins seem to change location on version.

#

yeah

#

but i managed to figure it out

I'm having issues getting NDI to show up under Tools. I have installed/uninstalled/reinstalled several times OBS 27 and NDI 4.9. I have verified the ndi plugin files i the plugin dir in OBS.
I had this problem before, and I can't for the life of me remember how I fixed it. And my previous google searches aren't showing the fix
Is there some setting in OBS I need to enable or something?
this is a fresh windows install. This is literally the 2nd and 3rd thing I've installed on it
i didn't install OBS 28 because NDI is still be worked on according to the plugin status page

pulsar hawk
#

apparently something got borked on the first installation. Not sure what
I had to install NDI Tools from ndi.tv site. Was able to install that, OBS shows the option. Uninstalled the Tools and reinstalled the Runtime library, and the NDI plugin is still available.
not sure what happened
🤔

Should work fine in OBS 27.x or older. The key to maximizing plugin compatibility is avoiding updating OBS when a new version comes out until manually and individually confirming that every single plugin being used (including 3rd parties like Elgato) are confirmed to work with the new release first before updating.

zealous moss
#

Oh I will have to look for v27 then. Thank you very much!

quiet bramble
#

When a new version of OBS comes out, some plugins may or may not work depending on if and how the ABI may have changed. It might be a case of someone having to just rebuild a plugin and release it for it to work with new OBS, or it might require actual code changes to adapt to a new API.

#

But 3rd party plugin developers do not all monitor OBS development daily and plan to release new compatible plugins on day 1. I'd go as far as saying that many plugins are developed, released and the developer doesn't follow OBS development at all and wont know their plugin doesn't work until someone tells them or they update OBS and find out themselves. So it's generally a very bad idea to update OBS if you use plugins at all, until confirming that all of your plugins are compatible with the new OBS or have compatible updates, and that the updates are not "experimental/alpha" which could destabilize production setups.

#

NDI works with OBS 26.1.1 and 27.2.4 for me.

zealous moss
#

Okay that makes sense. I do hope the plugin developers release a new version of ndi

Any plugins or filters for video noise/grain reduction? Using a Canon m50 via hdmi

Hello OBS,
I see some streamers use OBS but their filter make that stream to be so smooth and not glitchy.
Can you suggest me anything about that ?

oak pond
#

@zealous moss @pulsar hawk When I switched back to OBS 27 I had to remove and then re-add my NDI sources and then they worked again.

pulsar hawk
#

this was a fresh install, so that wasn't the issue 😉

#

i mean, OBS was literally 2nd program I installed

#

and ndi was the 3rd

#

the 1st was firefox

#

I am having to reset up my streaming rig (had a drive failure). so this was the new install

Hey all, i just set up my Tuna Plugin yesterday to work with spotify. So the Cover Art works but the text that i want to show just reads as artist title album. I followed a detailed set up video to the T but the text part isnt putting in the song info. Does anyone have anny ideas as to why this would be

onyx vigil
#

is source mirror still a thing

vale vine
#

Yes with the streamfx plugin

mortal harbor
#

is there a plug-in that will let me display current track or id3 tag info from music being played in foobar2000?

fossil wyvern
mortal harbor
#

doesn't list foobar2000 but that might be because it's isn't opensource... does list VLC which i think i can make work. thank you!

Thanks. I was just going off of the one linked from the ws-5.0.1 page, thinking that the note about being only for OBS 27 only referred to the 5.0 plugin.

hi!

I'm wondering if, with Exeldro's move plugin, it's possible to move a source in 4pixel increments instead of 1... I know this is weird and unsupported, but maybe it's a quick edit I could do on my end.
Just a hopeful thought here as I'm working with pixel art and I am currently doing a single 10ms move source filter per each single 4pixel movement!

thank youuu

smoky coral
#

So with spotify playing and ive done all the linking, even went as far as getting a client id and and client secret

#

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this or what i have possibly done wrong because im not getting any song info but the cover art changes as it should and gets the correct cover art

fossil wyvern
#

fix what?

smoky coral
#

sorry i was vague lol the song info wont display but the cover art changes with the songs

fossil wyvern
#

it's {title} not Title

#

Title tells tuna to just display "Title", literally, which is what it's doing in your case
{title} tells it to replace that token with the song title

smoky coral
#

Oh so it needs the brackets around whatever word i pick

fossil wyvern
#

in "song format" yes

#

and not capitalized

smoky coral
#

I wanted to see what the other things did and looked like, would i just apply the same thing?

fossil wyvern
#

yup, {duration} if you want it to show the duration

smoky coral
#

man i feel dumb, it was such an easy fix but none of the tutorials i looked at were of the most updated version

fossil wyvern
#

most video tutorials are usually wrong or outdated

smoky coral
#

or {formated songjson}

smoky coral
fossil wyvern
smoky coral
#

Thank you so much, i figured it was something small!

fossil wyvern
#

👍

smoky coral
#

so for each instance say i want song and album would the each be in their own brackets

fossil wyvern
#

yeah, for example : {title} : {album}

smoky coral
#

okay and does it need the :

#

i forget the name of this : symbol

fossil wyvern
#

basically, a variable between brackets will be replaced by the value of the variable

fossil wyvern
smoky coral
#

okay

delicate rock
#

someone know a plugin to put delay in a window capture? like 5 seconds delay

fossil wyvern
delicate rock
#

is not limited in 500 ms?

dark sapphire
#

it is, for important reasons

#

if you have to delay more that 500ms, you need to change something about your flow

fossil wyvern
#

I'm a monkey with a wrench, but you can add more than one

harsh topaz
#

I'm thinking they want to not show stream some content until they've been allowed to see it - so there's time to hide it before it hits stream.

fossil wyvern
#

@dark sapphire would that be problematic?

I understand that a migration guide from websocket-4.9 to 5.0 is being developed. In the meantime, is there specific guidance for:

  • Listing the sources that have an audio mixer (currently done in 4.9 with GetSourceTypesList where hasAudio=true + GetSourcesList)
  • Getting the volume of a source (currently GetVolume)
  • Setting the volume of a source (currently SetVoume)
    Thanks

so, dont exist a plugin to put a huge delay?

On MacOS is it safe to just delete the relevant folder in /Library/Application Support/.... to remove an unwanted plug in? I have OBS complaining about 2 versions of the Move Transition plugin.

lethal knoll
#

yep

cmake --version

alpine crater
#

I'm using cmake-gui cus idk what I'm doing with that, but this setup seems to work for me. At least for building/compiling/intellisense

lethal knoll
#

do you use code or studio (or something else?)

alpine crater
#

studio

lethal knoll
#

is the template in the obs-studio dir?

alpine crater
#

these directories refer to my template.
yeah once you've built obs, point libobs_DIR at the build/libobs directory

lethal knoll
#

thanks, o,O have to look it up on this way, the gui seems to make it easier for non cmake-gods

alpine crater
#

it might be sufficient to export that as a environment variable, but this cut down a lot of hassle

lethal knoll
#

true, but i guess, i have to do something else first, cmake isn't happy how my visual studio is installed (but i wanted to install everything clean anyway on a new ssd)

alpine crater
#

ok, let me know how you get on.
Maybe we can figure these things out together

I’ve updated my mac to the latest update using Monterey, I downloaded the latest OBS for Mac users (Apple silicon). I have last year MacBook Pro with. M1 chip. I didn’t have problems streaming on OBS two months ago. But now I’m dropping frames all the time and my bitrate is fluctuating from green to red and my streams keep crashing.
