Has anyone made an Nvidia Maxine plugin for OBS that has the eye-facing-camera feature?

amber flume
#

I am using OBS to stream a Marshall IP camera. I can view the camera stream online at the IP address, but for the past two weeks, it shows a black screen in OBS. Can anyone help me with this. I updated OBS, uninstalled and reinstalled. Restarted the camera, etc. I also did not change any settings.

analog ruin
#

are you using RTSP, or how are you getting the camera into OBS?

amber flume
#

Rtsp, yes!

analog ruin
#

does it work if you copy the link, and paste it into VLC for instance (outside of OBS)?

amber flume
#

oh i have not tried that, I don't have VLC

analog ruin
#

!vlc ok, it would be nice to have that as a sanity check πŸ˜…

oblique yewBOT
#

If you are having problems with playing content created by OBS Studio in Movies & TV or QuickTime Player, this is because the media player does not have proper format support. This causes missing video, audio, or for the file to not open at all.

We recommend VLC Media Player for better, accurate format support. Like OBS Studio, VLC Media Player is a free and open source project.

amber flume
#

I will download it and see

analog ruin
#

if you just wanna shortcut, you can try typing this into the bottom box in the "media source" (FFmpeg Options):
rtsp_transport=tcp (whoops, wrong one)

amber flume
#

I did that and nothing happened

analog ruin
#

ok, then that is not the issue πŸ˜„ Test the rtsp link in VLC, and see how it goes

#

if it does not work there, then the issue is likely outside of OBS (with the camera itself, or networking)

amber flume
#

I don't know if you can answer this or not but how would I pull up the stream in VLC, i've never used it

analog ruin
#

ctrl+n on your keyboard

harsh topaz
#

@quiet bramble after the entire setup is basically done, I catch shader filter rounded_stroke_gradient.shader causing massive (from 60 to 10-15) fps stutter when source is being moved with move transition. I now remember why I stopped messing with shader filters >.<

analog ruin
#

or mousey

harsh topaz
#

Time to tear the whole thing apart again. My life in a nutshell Sadge

amber flume
#

Okay it would not pull up in VLC either, thanks for your help!

faint eagle
#

so i aint updated ma obs cah was told some plugins wouldnt work, does the win capture plug in work on the up to date obs?

spiral ruin
faint eagle
#

bet had to make sure thanks

#

if i update ma obs will i lose everything id so is there a wayi dont?

harsh topaz
#

You will not lose anything if you use the in-app updater.

But you should always back up your scene collections to be safe.

Hi, does anyone know a plugin for zooming OBS record view ?
Something more convenient than dragging for ever the corner of my window/screen ? πŸ˜…

misty granite
#

looking for a way to do replay

worldly ember
#

Unsure if its a plugin thing but my stream deck wont register with obs even though both say connected idk if its an obs thing or a stream deck I am in both discords trying to figure it out .

stone delta
#

dos someone know a plugin to raise or low the speed of a video while playing it?

little sky
#

just saw a video about that Vertical plugin (can see on the left side of the screen)

#

I think its amazing

mortal harbor
#

agreed! i tested it out a few days ago. considering you can set the 2nd output resolution to anything you want (not just vertical) it is especially powerful.

weak escarp
#

in theory you can even have more than 2 canvas, only you would need to edit json at the moment to get it

obsidian agate
#

I really like the "linked scenes" feature too, so switching scenes in the Main Canvas can switch to a linked scene in the Vertical Canvas

#

so you arent stuck with a single vertical scene like with other methods

vale vine
#

@weak escarp is it an "always on" thing? Any way to have it tied to profiles?

mortal harbor
#

it's a dock so i think it would be tied to a profile? not at my PC to test.

vale vine
#

It's not

#

Just tested

#

Closed in one profile. Switched to other. Enabled. Switched back to first profile and still there

weak escarp
#

we choose for it not to be tied to profiles

little sky
#

the only thing so far tha i dont like about it is that if you change something in that cacvas and you do ctrl+z it will revert a main canvas change not the vertical one

vale vine
#

Seems a bit clunky on the layout when just wanting super basic game clips at 16:9

#

Just my 2 cents

little sky
#

I love this Vertical thing because youtube doesnt have proper clips feature and you can only download lower res video from youtube

#

so with this i can record my moment with a keybind with normal res too

#

in an allready pre-made short format

#

❀️

vale vine
#

qt6 quirks I assume?

#

nvm. its 2 seperate docks. I see what happened

weak escarp
vale vine
#

I will say, source dock makes manipulation of obs layout a freaking CHARM

obsidian agate
#

and Source Copy has been a huge help in porting over my in-OBS built VTuber characters. Run both old and newer copy of OBS, Source Copy from one to the other.

#

I’m having trouble with the Advanced scene switcher not using the transition I picked for it and it’s using the one like when I use a regular one

stone delta
#

@weak escarp
I am searching for a way to speed up and slow down a replay like your plugin "replay source" do.
my problem with you plugin is that I need a 60s replay and this kills my RAM.
At the Moment I work with a script that makes a media source that I can control.
But I cant find a way to ramp up or slow down the speed like they do in sport stuff.
do you have an idea for me to get this ruing?

vale vine
#

any plans for a cqp option here?

#

either way, so long as my stream actually goes live, this thing is freaking AMAZING

vale vine
#

so if recording when using backtrack, it just uses encoder settings for recording?

#

nifty

#

I imagine if streaming, and set to use when streaming, it uses stream settings?

mortal harbor
#

asking questions you could quickly test tisk tisk

vale vine
#

except I dont want to stream

#

nor set bandwidth test thaanks to ws/obs bug

mortal harbor
#

you don't have a test account you use? figured you would.

vale vine
#

this ws crash when changing collections is quite annoying

mortal harbor
#

you use touchportal?

#

not super familiar with the crash you are talking about but i remember reading an issue somewhere mentioning touchportal.

vale vine
#

yes I do. I figured its probably a timing issue where TP is polling at the moment I change

#

looks like it just uses recording settings when starting a stream

#

peculiar

mortal harbor
#

backtrack = replay buffer

#

so it using recording settings always makes sense to me.

vale vine
#

yea. that does indeed make sense.

#

playing with things helps to figure them out

mortal harbor
#

that's usually how i do it.

vale vine
#

well this doesnt seem right

#

switching profiles seems to make its settings throw a fit and not listen

#

wait....so if its supposed to be vertical, should it maybe arbitrarily flip the resolution that is being used for replay/recording?

and another issue seems to happen when changing profiles in the same session

oblique yewBOT

I feel like @harsh topaz breaking things

harsh topaz
#

Hi

vale vine
#

but that other bug doesnt happen upon fully closing and relaunching.

#

so basically, in its current state, dont switch profiles at all in the same session

harsh topaz
#

You trying that vertical stream aitom plugin or w/e?

vale vine

yea

harsh topaz

Isn't it paid?

Or is there like a trial

not paid for plugin. but def has some issues

does anyone else use the Zoom and Follow script? because for some reason it just randomly stopped working for me one day and I cant figure out why or how to fix it
ive tried removing and readding it
this is what appears in the script log so idk whats wrong

hard jay
#

We changed how displays are identified in OBS, so the script will likely need to be updated to the new format.

are there any good plugins for cloud saving scene collections?

obsidian agate
#

so see if Google Drive or similar offers a way to point to a specific folder and have it just back up that folder, hopefully in addition to its normal backup methods

terse moth
#

Is there any way to put a folder within a folder?
I have a large list of characters I use for stream (Over 75) and they clutter my sources window- I'd like to be able to organize them in sub folders- Is that possible in any way?

vale vine
#

Scene tree plugin may be helpful

#

But putting groups into groups is a recipe for disaster

untold jay
#

@terse moth use nested scenes for that, same performance with none of the issues of groups

terse moth
#

I've never worked w/ nested scenes.- Is there anything I should know before I get started?

untold jay
#

any scene can be added as a source into any other scene, unless in doing so you'd create an infinite loop, but obs-studio won't let you do that

#

you can add filters to scenes, this will affect both the scene itself, and any instance where you use that scene as a source

#

that's about all there is to it, have fun, let me know if you have more specific questions

terse moth
#

alright, I'll give it a shot then- thank you.

Does anyone know of a plugin that has a reliable voice activated mic setting for OBS? Unless it's in the OBS core settigns and I'm just stupid lol

mortal harbor
#

voice activated mic? what do you mean?

hard jay
#

We have a noise gate filter, yes.

mortal harbor
#

i wasn't sure if they meant that or some sort of voice-activated control of OBS.

agile verge
#

I meant like.how discord voice chats will only activate your voice when you're talking to filter out ambient noise from your room

#

When I stream, if I start typing it's audible

mortal harbor
#

then yes, as Fenrir mentioned that would be a noise gate filter.

#

curious, what GPU do you have?

agile verge
#

NVIDIA geForce GTX 1060 6GB why's that

agile verge
mortal harbor
#

!filters it is a built in filter.

oblique yewBOT
#

You can fine-tune your video and audio sources using filters. To access Filters, you can either:

  • click on the Filters button on the source toolbar
    OR
  • right click on your source (or click the Gear icon next to an audio source) and select Filters

See the Filters Guide for more information on what filters are available and how they work.

mortal harbor
#

i asked about your GPU because RTX cards from NVIDIA support their own noise suppression filter which works really well but your card wouldn't allow it.

#

if you have a hard time setting it up, ask in here

#

one thing to know before hand, if you want to use a hardware encoder, use the ones called "NVENC" or "AMF" not those with a longer name

muted pulsar
fossil wyvern
#

what do you mean you could not get it to do anything?

muted pulsar
#

so, I enabled the replay feature within the source filter - but there's nothing you can do with it. There are no key bindings either. I tried a simple record, then triggered the replay the normal way, and it recorded nothing but the full length of the recording, and not the 30sec I set the replay to.

untold jay
#

@muted pulsar now go to settings>hotkeys and define hotkeys to save source record's replay buffer

muted pulsar
#

i letterally just checked to take a screen shot and the option is now there - Odd it wasnt there before Honist. I'll give that another go

#

~nope - even with the hotkey set, it didnt record anything

untold jay
#

@muted pulsar almost forgot, you still have to "start" replay buffer in some way or another, i think there's a "Recording mode" switch for that
(don't forget to disable ther filter first)

muted pulsar
#

so I have to set one of these for it to work?

untold jay
#

i'm not sure, let me try that

muted pulsar
#

because thats going to be an issue πŸ™‚ if I stream for 3-4 hrs thats about 10-15gb of video - I dont have the space for that every day.

untold jay
#

oh wow, it registers a new hotkey category with a "save replay" hotkey

muted pulsar
#

yes.

untold jay
#

ah, bollocks, there goes my scene collection
i hope the backup isn't older than i think it is

#

anyways, here's what i did:
add new display capture source, open its Filters
add new source record filter, rename it to sauce, disable it
change filename format to sauce%CCYY_%MM_%DD_%hh-%mm-%ss (source record will crash if you use a slash character)
tick replay buffer
set encoder to "nvenc", rate control to cqp
close Properties window
settings>hotkeys, under "display capture" bind "source record enable" to 1, "disable" to 2, hit OK
reopen the display capture filters screenn again, enable "sauce"
reopen settings>hotkeys again, locate "display capture - sauce", bind "save replay" to 3
press 3, check videos, it's there
@muted pulsar does this help?

#

the scene collection backup is a tad older than i thought, so i won myself 4 minutes of re-doing my changes again ._. at least i remember what to do

#

not 4 minutes, but 15 minutes, all my audi ofilters are gone ._.

#

remind me to follow my own advice regarding backups when doing something risky, that was dumb of me

muted pulsar
#

lol

#

no, its not working for me. and it just crashed OBS twice.

#

No matter, its not urgent - thanks for all your help anyway. You're still a supa-star

source record troubleshooting is a very fun adventure, for sure

oblique yewBOT
# rocky stone I got it done but theres a yellow border line at the edge of my screen how do i...

When using a Display Capture or Window Capture source with the "Windows 10 (1903 and up)" method, you will have a yellow border surrounding the portion of the screen being captured. Unfortunately, this border cannot currently be removed on Windows 10.

You can try using another capture method in the source properties, but it's possible this will instead produce a black screen. We automatically disable the yellow border on Windows 11 as Microsoft allows us to.

It is only visible to you, and it will not show up on stream or in recordings.

I've been at it for a while trying to solve encoder problems, and I've been trying to get back to using the GStreamer plugin, but it is missing the VAAPI encoder completely. I've seen another video of someone with OBS 29 (Flatpak) and up having this working. Is there a reinstall I'm going to have to do, or is there some other manual intervention I'll need to do to restore GStreamer through the Flatpak version?

lament leaf
frail anchor
#

It is a plugin, but it is also that category too? I could ask there too.

I'll just take it there then. I kind of just realized the creator of this tool is over there sometimes.

Hi i need help

I already updated the latest version of obs

#

If you updated to latest version of OBS, you dont need websocket plugin. It's built into OBS v29

#

Delete the old plugin and reboot.

mortal harbor

I think you need to reinstall OBS after, the plugin version has the same name and replaces it.

And how do I configure the application "Sammi Core"?

Hi everyone, I'm currently attempting to set up an Nginx RTMP server on an Oracle instance. The 1935 TCP port is open both on the VCN and on the software firewall yet neither OBS nor FFMPEG is able to connect and stream to the server. Nginx is running perfectly fine and doesn't show any signs of errors.

Here's the RTMP part of the Nginx config, the rest is default:

. . .
rtmp {
    server {
            listen 1935;
            chunk_size 4096;
            allow publish all;

            application live {

                    record off;
            }

According to the log, it's not even trying to load the plugin, which means that it's not installed to the correct location. You can try installing it manually using the zip file, but past that, it's hard to say what else might be going on. The file simply isn't in the correct place.

harsh topaz

@weak escarp Is there a way to set Transform height/width that isn't scale? Due to rounding error, it ends up putting sources off by a pixel, resulting in a jump when matching.

It'll do scale 0.172 for example, and itll end up being 330.240 instead of 330 which pushes it down a pixel on screen.

untold jay
#

@harsh topaz using the move transition plugin?

harsh topaz
#

Yes

#

pos: x 707.0 y 290.0 rot: 0.0 scale: x 0.258 y 0.257 crop: l 0 t 0 r 0 b 0

#

It is a little confusing to me, because using Get Transform feels like it should be using absolutes since there's a Transform Relative option. And scale is a relative thing.

mystic stump
#

does anyone would know how to fix up my OBS NDI plugin problem at all

weak escarp
harsh topaz
untold jay
#

@weak escarp i think the question here is "can i change a scale by +20px rather than multiply it by 1.2"?

harsh topaz
#

no, I'd like to set exact height and width.

#

Not a height and width based off of a scale of the previous state.

#

To avoid math roundings pushing things off by a pixel. Alone its not bad, but when you do it on 6 frames and they all jump at the same time it's very noticeable unfortunately.

#

Basically wondering if this
pos: x 960.0 y 584.0 rot: 0.0 scale: x 0.526 y 0.526 crop: l 0 t 0 r 0 b 0
Has an option to do something like
pos: x 960.0 y 584.0 rot: 0.0 width: 330 height: 180 crop: l 0 t 0 r 0 b 0 instead

weak escarp
#

yeah, change the bounding box type to anything other than no bounds

harsh topaz
#

Hmm, okay. I'll try that.

untold jay
#

didn't know that works

Oh that makes it set absolutes. Interesting.

I was recording yesterday just fine, the same settings, same game, same source.
I updated from 29.0.0 to 29.0.2 and it's just crashing OBS.
I reverted back to the previous backup and it's still just crashing. I removed both folders (x86 and roaming) and replaced them with my backed up versions, which I have been using for a good month now.

pulling my hair out now.

anyone in here super familiar with Nvidia Broadcast software and using it with OBS? I want to have my main scene be my webcam with background removed effect, and my chatting scene to be the plain webcam, but when nvidia uses the webcam OBS cannot and vice versa. Is there a way to set this up so that I can do both?

night rivet

I tried to figure where it's integrated but i still had to download NVidia broadcast separate

I THINK there's an OBS plugin that could also make those triggers, but I don't know for sure

not the filters but the ones that like use AI to remove background and add eye contact (creepy)

someone suggested manycam in stream setup

also it costs $$

in OBS, or from your view (without obs)?

you could use window or game capture, that wont display it

if you're using display capture, then there isn't really any way, except cropping out the bottom part

@analog ruin did you forget you can make the taskbar auto hide?

analog ruin
#

nope, thats why I asked, what do you want to do (hide in obs, or in windows)

untold jay
#

i imagine most people would try to produce 16:9 video, so your solution would add black bars / overscan / stretch scale

#

while windows doesn't fully "hide" the taskbar when hidden (1-2 pixels still peek), it migh tbe preferable in this scenario

analog ruin
#

my solution was to use game or window capture

#

im not presuming that they want to capture a full screen appliation

#

if they are, they are using the wrong capture

I am making assumptions, and so are you πŸ˜„

NodeJS is for making server software with JavaScript, so backend stuff that has access to the file system and other hardware. Web Pages would be on the front end side, which is very sandboxed in most cases

for the most part yes. Electron is based on NodeJS, bridging the two together, which Discord is based on (features you can only use on the desktop app use NodeJS to do what they do). Same with the old Bebo streaming software

I'm running OBS on a Intel MacBook to broadcast sports games, and I was wondering if there was any way for replays to not include certain sources for example to not include the scoreboard. I was also wondering is there any better way to do replays other than the built-in replay buffer

It's a finnicky plugin though, you might run into crashes or bugs depending on what settings you use.

if it's finicky, then probably not, do you have any suggestions for a scoreboard plug-in?

There's a reason it's one of the most used languages. Personally I just needed something quick and dirty - then learn along the way. So I went with JS + jQuery(because the syntax and functions just made more sense to me) and off we went.

html, js, jquery + localStorage/broadcast channel. Basic score board you can style however you want.

so I am working w/ the Aitum Vertical plugin it doesn't automatically remux recordings from MVK to MP4
I was wondering is there a way to automatically have OBS do this after I end a livestream?

#

I am aware that you can do File>Remux Recordings and select there

mortal harbor
#

!autoremux

#

!remux

oblique yewBOT
#

Remuxing allows you to take one video container (FLV, MKV, etc) and make an exact copy of the video and audio in another video container. This process takes seconds, and can be done with any recordings made with OBS by selecting File > Remux Recordings.

Remuxing is the safest way to get MP4 files for use in editors, or other software which doesn't support FLV or MKV files.

mortal harbor
#

hmmm

#

there is an option in the settings.

#

i thought a command mentioned it but i guess not?

sacred oasis
#

Yeah, that works for normal bits but not with Aitums vertical plugin at the moment

mortal harbor
#

oh, then no there is no option.

#

this would be something for the plugin to implement probably, not OBS.

sacred oasis
#

I would really like to do something more advanced eventually (maybe need to but scripting)
After I end a stream I would like to click a button and the following happen

  1. All the Clips/Recordings, backtracks etc (I have 3 levels of content from a stream that I need to pull) get remux from MVK to MP4
  2. All the Pieces get moved into a organized folder setup with each type of content going into a folder (date)/(content type)
    So my clips could be in D:/_VIDEOS/23-02-07/Replay/
    My videos would be in D:/_Vidoes/23-02-07/Long/
    My Backtracks would be in D:/_Videos/23-02-07/Vert/
#

off loading the remux to the end is helpful to not pull resources while live too so kinda benefical

#

but I will look around before bugging people again

mortal harbor
#

you could probably do something w/ ffmpeg + a hot folder so that everything that gets dropped into the folder auto remuxes.

#

this isn't something i'd want to try to walk you through but it at least gives you some info to go off of if you decide to research it.

sacred oasis
#

hum hot folder may need to look at that

mortal harbor

Ah

also I am dummy.
In the Advanced output you can have you landing point be a subfolder so that problem is solved

Question about the obsplugin-template:
It says at https://github.com/obsproject/obs-plugintemplate#retrieving-build-artifacts

Retrieving build artifacts
Each build produces installers and packages that you can use for testing and releases. These artifacts can be found on the action result page via the "Actions" tab in your GitHub repository.
When I look at my project's build actions result page I see 5 artifacts (foo-linux-x86_64, foo-macos-arm64, foo-macos-universal, foo-macos-x86_64, foo-windows-x64).
When I look at the Windows artifact it is a zip that contains another zip of the raw files.
I was expecting a .exe or .msi "installer"...as the readme says,
Is this expected, or does the template not have a built in way to create standard a .exe installer?
Thanks.

your options
1 : revert to obs 27.2.4 and use the stable release of streamfx

  • 2.2 : or by compiling it yourself (not recommended)
    3 : don't use streamfx

if you can live without streamfx's 3d transform, exeldro's source clone plugin will suffice; if you want to pay xaymar for the pre-release build, https://www.patreon.com/Xaymar

be warned that the pre-release version is unstable and no tech support will be given for any issues you might encounter; some people have reported crashes, this will not be fixed until a stable build is out (although you will be speeding up the development of such a build by throwing money at Xaymar)

@latent oak audio output capture, you probably already have that to capture system sounds

latent oak
untold jay
#

@latent oak audio output capture captures entire audio devices; if vlc is set to output to your default audio device and you're already capturing that, it will be captured

untold jay
#

@latent oak yes
@finite grotto you can host a rtmp server, assuming you have a "white" external IP and can forward port 1935 (or any port); once you're streaming to that rtmp server, you can use obs-studio's media source to receive and play video from it

latent oak
untold jay
#

@latent oak if you don't want to capture all system sounds, you can use application audio capture

latent oak

#

@latent oak it affects what obs-studio will do if it can't find the target window

latent oak
#

What is the difference between "type" and ".exe"?

untold jay

@latent oak i think "same type" refers to window class, this can capture things you may not want to capture, use "same executable" if you'll only use vlc for music playback

# regal breach To get the transform, you have to apply the filter on the scene, then on the sce...

Yes thanks I missed the link via the sceneitem object, then I figured it out finally. For the records, to get the transform parameters applied to a filter, in video_render, you can:

  1. Get the parent source with obs_filter_get_parent and retrieve its name with obs_source_get_name
  2. Get the current scene as a source object with obs_frontend_get_current_scene, then get the scene object with obs_scene_from_source
  3. Find the sceneitem with obs_scene_find_source_recursive using the scene object and the name of the parent --> ⚠️ it may not be unique according to recent tests
  4. Use functions such as obs_sceneitem_get_rot or obs_sceneitem_get_scale to have the transform parameters
regal breach
#

Like, what if you go to a scene without the source in question

#

There's also the question of what if you duplicated the source

dawn flicker
#

Thanks for the remark @regal breach . In any case I have fallback values and check if the scene and scene_item objects are found before trying to retrieve the transform parameters. Right, I assume that the filter is in the current scene. If not then it will not be displayed, so I should not care at all (i.e. fallback values are set in the worst case).

#

If I duplicate the source, then the name of the parent will change (OBS annoyingly enforces that there is another name) wrong

vapid charm
dawn flicker
regal breach
#

So even if you have the source in two scenes, it will only apply to the selected scene

#

So if you want it on multiple scenes, just duplicate the filter

dawn flicker
#

What about the parent source? If I go up in the hierarchy of sources, I would expect to find the scene where the filter is rendered no?

Nevermind, i forgot you're just using the current scene

Ultimately, I just want to have some means to work at screen pixel level in the shader, i.e. have the size of the final picture of my filter, given by transform_scale*target_resolution ..

#

Assuming that there is no rotation and that the scene is rendered in full-screen

#

But it is so complicated to find the scene_item related to a filter, just then to get the scale of the transform.. I cannot really follow why there is not easy way. Currently looking at the struct obs_source in obs-internal.h , I could not find a hint of a more direct way

Too complicated, I will try to find a way by understanding the ViewProj

Anyone know if the feature to stream video playlists using VLC Media Player on a live stream through OBS has been removed? (using Apple silicon device) It was working a few months ago now its just gone?

hey everyone i'm trying to install keystrokes on my obs overlay but i don't see the "input overlay" button in scenes

desert herald
#

@stuck quiver what version of obs are you using, and where did you get the input overlay plugin?

stuck quiver
#

i'm using the latest version, 29.0.2 and i don't have the input overlay plugin

fossil wyvern
stuck quiver
#

no because i didn't know it was a separate software. All these videos are saying just copy paste from the bin and data into obs plugin folder

#

send me the link

i got it, thank you

bright pelican
#

does the multiple rtmp plugin use more pc resources to output to more websites?

vale vine
#

*depends

bright pelican
#

hmmm what does it depend on ?

#

i wanna ditch restream as it messes the youtube livestreams, but i also wanna livestream on twitch

vale vine
#

I believe you can set it's encoding options to use the same as core output(or something along those lines) which would then just need more upload than a single output

bright pelican
#

oh that would be perfect, i only need one output anyway

vale vine
#

But if you are wanting to send higher quality to YT than what you can send to twitch, that would be a seperate encode

bright pelican
#

would you recommend a better way though ? Restream is good but it messes with how youtube livestreams are made and people dont get the notifications iv gathered

vale vine
#

YT notifications are also fucky in general

bright pelican
#

yeah but iv seen that if restream makes an event that doesnt even get notified at all

#

plus restream never saves the event settings, for example i preffer ultra-low latency for youtube but it always puts it back to low-latency

#

it gets on my nerves haha

#

but thanks for the info, ill check the plugin now

Hey everyone,

Can I ask some tips and tricks for building an environment for my streams? The main point that I need to bring is that it includes multiple feeds over internet, like camera, game capture and audio.

I am aware of VDO/OBS Ninja, but I was looking for something more direct, not relying on 3rd party servers.

harsh topaz
#

The point of vdon is that it's direct, webrtc P2P.

#

Not sure you'll find anything "more direct".

subtle oyster
#

If i use application audio capture (BETA) the volume stays the same if i play anything

night rivet
harsh topaz
#

The url you go to is just an end point. If possible it sends info directly.

#

Vdon just does the handshake really.

#

There are turn servers but they're only utilized if there's connection issues. Usually ISPs blocking etc.

#

And that's also only redirects, so handshakes.

#

If you want more you need to utilize something that isn't vdon

untold jay
#

if by "more direct" you mean something entirely self-hosted that doesn't depend on a third party website being up and available, you can host a rtmp server

harsh topaz
#

You can also host your own vdon

hey, are plugins required to be backwards compatible with the "old" OBS 28 version? because I can't select 29 as minimum version when posting a new resource:

#

or is it just a matter of noone having updated that list yet?

harsh topaz
#

I don't think there's a lot of reasons why your v29 plugin wouldn't be compatible with v28

There was a QT jump to qt6 which was 28, which forced plugins to update if they were using qt.

Is there any recommended way to keep plugins up to date? I basically subscribe to GitHub releases and then download new releases, but I wonder if there's a way or something I've missed.

untold jay
#

@solemn tendon a plugin updater is planned/wanted, but so far no, there's nothing

quiet bramble
# solemn tendon OK, thanks!

Best way that I know of currently is basically what it sounds like you're doing already. Clicking "Watch" on OBS forum page for plugin and/or github. Not the most desired way, but helps to keep up on things for now at least. I also scour the resources pages in latest-release order often, aiming for once/week (for updating my plugin compatibility chart). I'm a bit behind on that though.

does anybdoy know ofa speach to text thing i could use? i hate my voice and eithre just have no voice at all or speach to text

quiet bramble
#

There are voice changers like Voicemod, as well as pitch shifter VSTs etc.

untold jay
#

speech recognition software usually either sucks, or sucks but for different reasons

quiet bramble
#

I know some streamers that use voice changer tech in interesting ways to create character(s) etc. (ie: Grym), and that can be interesting/entertaining. If I was to tune into someone who was using text to speech with a robot voice that is obviously fake and terrible, I'd probably bail pretty quick though. It's too impersonal and fake for my taste.

untold jay
#

unless you have a very clean english, a great mic and the exact accent it expects, it will usually fail to recognize most words

quiet bramble
#

Oh, I read that backwards as text to speech.

#

Yeah, speech to text software is basically subtitle software and IMHO it is all terrible. It gets way too many words wrong, and often randomly generates very questionable/offensive text, sexual innuendos etc. all unintentionally. It can be hilarious to see just how epic bad it is though too.

You simply select the source instead.

To help resolve your issue, we need to view a log file from a fresh launch of OBS Studio containing an output session. Follow these instructions to upload a clean log file:

1. Restart OBS Studio first
2. Start your stream/recording replicating any issues (meaning having any games/apps open and captured, etc.)
3. Stop your stream/recording after 30 seconds or after the issue has occurred
4. Click the Help menu β†’ Log Files β†’ Upload Current Log File

glacial haven
#

a plugin can only access its own locale data, right? so even if 99% of required texts are the same as from another plugin from the OBS base installation I would need to create a full copy of them for my own plugin?

wary escarp
#

you could try to get the lookup_t from that other module via obs_module_load_locale and then use text_lookup_getstr to get the locales

#

(that's what the OBS_MODULE_USE_DEFAULT_LOCALE macro does for you and your own plugin, so take that as a reference)

glacial haven
#

yeah, well, my case is a bit special so I can't use that macro, but the hint will probably still help me, thx!

wary escarp
#

well yeah, you wouldn't use the macro, just re-implement most of what it does

glacial haven
#

yep, gotcha

dark sapphire
#

however, there's no guarantee a module you don't own will always have that translation key

#

safer to create your own copies of the keys

Are there any instructions on how to compile the OBS Studio libraries only (libobs)? CMake throws and error saying FFmpeg was not found:

I tried setting FFmpeg_DIR to the obs-deps release directory, but no results

It is not FFmpeg that was not found, it's the file/finder that should help find it that is missing.

misty reef
#

So it's not included with libobs?

#

Where will it search for the finder?

wary escarp
#

@misty reef did you clone the entire OBS Studio repository?

#

if so, could you paste the full cmake command you're executing?

misty reef
#

I'm actually building libobs for StreamFX, and yes, I have cloned the entire OBS Studio repository recursively

#

StreamFX requires a precompiled version of libobs

wary escarp
#

what's the cmake command you're running?

misty reef
#
cmake . -FFmpeg_DIR="C:/deps/x64" -B build -G "Visual Studio 17"
solar dust
#

In which directory.

misty reef
#

obs-studio/libobs

solar dust
#

You should do it in obs-studio folder not libobs.

misty reef
#

Do I need to change the command?

wary escarp
#

yeah, add -DENABLE_UI=OFF to disable the UI

#

and potentially -DENABLE_PLUGINS=OFF, not sure if that just works or causes trouble

CMake Error at cmake/Modules/ObsHelpers.cmake:396 (find_package):

  Expected Config file at
  "C:/qt/x64/lib/cmake/Qt6Widgets/Qt6WidgetsConfig.cmake" exists



  Configuring with --debug-find-pkg=Qt6Widgets might reveal details why the
  package was not found.

  Configuring with -DQT_DEBUG_FIND_PACKAGE=ON will print the values of some
  of the path variables that find_package uses to try and find the package.
#

the qt dir has that cmake file

#

there is such error for each qt component now

#

but those config files exist

wary escarp
#

did you disable the UI?

misty reef
#

yes

wary escarp
#

some plugins also link against Qt, you'll definitely need to -DENABLE_VST=OFF -DENABLE_BROWSER=OFF -DENABLE_WEBSOCKET=OFF

#

but I'd just try plugins entirely with -DENABLE_PLUGINS=OFF

misty reef
#

Sheesh it worked

#

Let me check...

#

Yes it opened in Visual Studio...

#

so to get that obs.lib file I just need to build?

dark sapphire
#

-DENABLE_UI=OFF should also work, i think? I'm blind.

wary escarp
misty reef
#

Ok it worked

#

perfectly

#

though I still have errors to resolve

#

Well

#

it needs something called w32-pthreads

IIRC, vcpkg trigger this issue and I don't remember how to workaround it.
Not a windows person either.

# misty reef Ok obs-studio contains that as a dependency
  1. copy the obs dependencies (obs-deps and obs-deps-qt) into a single directory
  2. configure the project via cmake -S <SOURCE_DIRECTORY> -B <NAME_OF_BUILD_DIRECTORY> -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=10.0.18363.657 -DCMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM=x64 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=<Release or Debug> -DQT_VERSION=6 -DENABLE_PLUGINS=OFF -DENABLE_UI=OFF -DENABLE_SCRIPTING=OFF -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<PATH_OF_OBS_DEPS> -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<PATH_OF_OBS_DEPS>
  3. build via cmake --build <NAME_OF_BUILD_DIRECTORY> --config <Release or Debug> -t <libobs or obs-frontend-api>
  4. install via cmake --install <NAME_OF_BUILD_DIRECTORY> --config <Release of Debug> --component obs_libraries
  5. Use the identical CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH for your plugin
#

the last part ensures that your plugin not only finds any obs-deps library you might use (e.g. Qt if you have UI component) but also libobs and optionally the obs-frontend-api (because they've been installed into that directory in step 4)

#

w32-pthreads will be automatically built and installed as well because CMake "knows" it's a transitive dependency of libobs (and using -t obs-frontend-api in step 3 builds both, because libobs is a dependency of obs-frontend-api)
