FYI, we're posting in audio-support for alternatives
anybody know if theres a plugin to tell when a recording file is about to split and go to the next one?
what's the endgoal exactly?
i just want something to tell me it's about to split, so i can end the videos with something funny or say catch us next time etc
split it manually?
i did not see that as an option for I am big dumb dumb
damn
π
Is there any fix for this?
Is there a plugin that will launch & close (kill) applications based on either an action in obs, or directly wiith the "Start Streaming" function? I'd like to start Streamer.bot when streaming starts, but then close/exit/kill it when stream stops.
You can use powerful macros in OBS Studio using timers, cursor detection, window detection, and more to automate switching between scenes, toggle sources, and many other options.
To get started, install the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin and see the GitHub project wiki to learn how to use it.
Yeah, I've got that.. And launching is working fine.. but don't see option to kill a process...
Not at my computer to check if that option exists but if not you could probably just create a simple .bat or powershell script to kill the process and then have adv-ss launch/run that script
That's a good idea, thank you!
There's a "run" option in the Action section, but I don't see any action to interact with a running process (except maybe "Window" but this just closes the active window, doesn't actually exit the application if it's set to like "minimize to system tray")
a script should do fine then
that's why you'd instead do a .bat or .sh, that finds the right process and kills it
and then just run that bat from adv-ss
is there any way that I can see the code for the input overlay? im trying to fix an issue with it and idk why my fixes aren't working
or if someone could tell me how to fix this that would be great too
better video
cant find anything there that would cause this (at least i dont think i can, idk c++)
well, c++ constitutes over half of the codebase
none of the files that i can see have related names
related to what?
default element positioning
there doesnt seem to be anything in the json file either
something is resetting the rotation every time the file checks for mouse movement, and whats weird is that it isn't in the same direction as it is on the png file with the textures
happens no matter what mouse input device i use (mouse, trackpad, etc)
you're sure it's not just the game recentering the mouse?
i dont have any games open
do a video with a display capture that actually showws your mousse position
nah it's accurate
it happens mid-movement as well is the thing
any good softwares to do that? clipchamp is being incredibly laggy
mpv
( https://mpv.io )
how does frame by frame work in it
also why does it just close after playing the video
ok got it
run the installer again and it will ask if you want to remove
Not sure if this is the right spot, but is it possible to record my camera as a separate file from my gameplay so i can move it if i need too?
Source-Record plugin can do that.
Wait, really? How do I get that?
!plugins
OBS Studio supports a variety of plugins that provide new kinds of sources, filters, and additional features.
- For a list of plugins, see OBS Studio Resources: Plugins
- To learn how to install or remove plugins, see the Plugins Guide
- To see if the plugins you use are available for the latest version of OBS Studio, see the OBS Studio 28 Plugin Compatibility table
Thank you, i was looking for hours online with dead ends
hi, Is there a plugin in OBS 29.0.0 that can blur only faces?
@oblique yew Is there a plugin in OBS 29.0.0 that can blur only faces?
anyone recommend a simple music plugin (copyright free) and free. lol
a plugin to do what?
there are plenty of copyright safe music options out there. not sure what a plugin would accomplish
if you just want music options, backingtrack.gg, streambeats, pretty sure there are a few low-fi options on YT that allow you to use their stuff
bascially a semi transperanet window bottom right corner of stream, that plays music?
you just want it to display the current music playing?
tuna plugin + spotify + backingtrack.gg or streambeats
roger that, thanks!
theres also a "now playing" thing that i personally use from nowplaying.site
I use it with spotify
What source do I select after tuna is installed, I set up the settings tab to spotify
someone help me?
I gave it titles, I made a cartoon that speaks with my voice
what I want is to improve
You need to be more specific about what you're actually looking for help with.
I want to improve, I want to make cartoon-like things, relaxing, attractive and very beautiful for both the public and me.
That still doesn't describe much. You'd prob want a vtuber program and model capable of more in depth animations
That has little to do with obs
no no. The theme of my stream is outer space, mixed with cartoon themes and video game style subtitles. then the public decides what to call the can of tuna. or the public decides who they should bring to the planet.
I want to learn how to make transitions, maps, things in chat and ect.
well, unless you have specifics we can't really help you.
What, specifically do you want info on?
how to make better transitions, and mechanics with chat
specifics
Ehhh, I want a TV transition doing static
could probably do a decent one simply with a track matte stinger, if you want to be more advanced will probably need to look into shaders or similar stuff
Likely don't even need a trackmatte. Get video of static > load into video editor > ramp opacity from 0 to 100, then back to 0 > use that video as a stinger and transition at whatever time offset has 100% opacity.
actually yeah dunnae why I said track matte
Habit. That's the more normal thing for stingers to do these days.
are there any greenscreen plugins for obs?
similar to what the filters on insta/tiktok do?
do you have a nvidia gpu and if yes, which?
i do not
Can somebody guide me into the right direction for SDK programming on a Mac?
Is there such a plugin as a "automtic source switcher?"
Well I know one by Exceldro exists but it doesn't work for browser sources
I want to cycle my chat as well π
Cycle in what way?
Hi! I'm having trouble installing the Freeze Filter plugin in OBS. I followed all the steps I found, but the filter doesn't appear when I try to apply it. Any idea what could be causing this issue?
as in every x amount of seconds it changes
having few sources in same location but swapping out so it's not a mess
Those are difference browser sources in that region?
yes
In that case contrary to the name you'd wanna checkout Advanced Scene Switcher https://github.com/WarmUpTill/SceneSwitcher
Yeah well I tried that but it only looks for windows to capture
not GDI text or web sources added via OBS
There's a handful of people here who know this better than I do but I'm 99% certain it can do what you want.
Just gonna need to wait for them to pop in.

Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the best place to ask this (i'll move it if it's wrong, just let me know).
I'm wondering if there is a less resource intense way to do what I'm currently doing. Whether that be workflow, or a plugin/tool.
For a while now I've been using a mask to cut out my perks in Dead By Daylight, so I can have them in the top left corner of my screen, instead of the bottom right, because that's where I have my PNGTuber
I've been using embedded scenes to do this, but I feel like there is probably a better way.
Below are what my scenes and folder/layout looks like.
Normal game layout looks like this
https://i.imgur.com/b8xW2TZ.png
My OUTPUT SCENE looks like this
https://i.imgur.com/kUiBQBe.png
My main directory looks like this
https://i.imgur.com/fIBFgYT.png
Inside Perks Minimal, I have each perk as a separated scene, like this
https://i.imgur.com/CTGCfiE.png
All of THESE are the same
https://i.imgur.com/upDj9mq.png
I have the same filter, but a different position applied to all of them, like this
https://i.imgur.com/C7hAGBN.png
I'd like to keep my layout like this, but about 8 months ago DBD updated to UE5, and ever since then the optimization has been atrocious, a serious resource hog. In an attempt to make streaming it less frustrating, I've been going through and consolidating as much as I can within my scenes.
If there is a way to do this exact same thing without as many "copies" of my game play scene, I'd really appreciate any help.
Thanks so much!
Take those link out of the code blocks as it's easier to click on mobile.
Just do <somerandom.link>
Way ahead of you, I don't know why my brain did code blocks.
Is there a plugin for OBS that can send sound via AES67?
hello
welp the shader i wrote for smudging 4:3 captures out to 16:9 is eating all my gpu when there's nothing to capture 
i have a problem can you help me ?
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!
wdym "smudging"?
also, you could use adv-ss to disable the filter when the source size is 0x0 (when it's not capturing)
Good morning! I'm trying to build a dock that basically will give me an additional preview window with a grid overlaid on top (multiviewer won't suffice, unfortunately).
Is there an existing plugin/codebase (that renders a source to a dock) that I could look at? I'm clearly missing something basic and nothing is rendering.
the source dock plugin renders sources in a dock
handy tip
thanks!
can anyone help me get OCR to detect the text better? I just want it to detect when it says FINISH
the "GE" is the current output
tried using adv-ss?
what's that
You can use powerful macros in OBS Studio using timers, cursor detection, window detection, and more to automate switching between scenes, toggle sources, and many other options.
To get started, install the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin and see the GitHub project wiki to learn how to use it.
i tried it but it wasn't working so i assumed it had to be like actual text and not like rendered text on a screen
nah it works
oh yeah i was trying a different condition
how can i get this one to detect better
man
oh wait i got it
a source clone with increased contrast or stuff like that might help
no matter what i try i can't figure out something that i can detect that will be consistent
and now i just can't get it to work at all
even if i press "run macro"
i just get an error
why does sometimes the outputted screenshot get corrupted
still havent found a fix for this
Can anyone guide me on how to make Advanced Scene Switcher do what I want it to do?
Having a hard time wrapping my head around
gotta say what you need it to do first before anyone will know if they can assist
AdvSS is a fairly complex plugin depending on how deep you need to get with it
I have created a subscene with chat and explanation text
then inserted that scene into my main gameplay scene
what I want is to make these sources in the same location not conflict with each other
so basically individualy switch them out
Advanced Scene Switcher could do this via a timed macro, but i kinda feel that Exeldro's "Source Switcher" plugin could be more appropriate for this. (scenes are just another type of source. Source Switcher is basically an Image Slideshow, but using any type of existing source instead of just images)
I use Source Switcher for my Starting Soon and Break scenes, cycling thru a number of scenes that I treat as "ad cards" of sorts. A social media one, a "todays content" one, my Throne page, etc.
I tried but it didn't do stuff with browser sources
should work fine, lemme test real quick
working fine here with 2 browser sources, one pointing to google, the other to obsproject
sorry, i dont do support over DMs
you will need to make the aspect ratio of both of them the same, either by making the chat box the same size as the text box, or visa-versa.
are both sources set to be the exact same size within their properties windows?
for text sources, use the Custom Text Extends properties
and browser sources have their own height and width properties
you could also use filters to crop them to the correct size, since Source Switcher uses each sources size post-filters. They do not take into account the Transform-state of the sources per scene, since that can be different on a scene to scene basis
Anyone here familiar with Advanced Scene Switcher, and utilizing the "If Video Source X contains text"?
Having an issue where no matter what I put in the text box for "Contains Text", the macro is running. So if the match and detected text showcase "10" but I typed for it to search for 20, with no partial match, it's still running, and continuing forth. I tested this further with doing, "Contains text: "Dawndkawldnlawkd"" while the detected text stated "10" and the macro still continued on as if it was accurate.
Oh you mean whatever the width and height of the browser source is? Set those numbers in text custom extents
yes, so if the browser source is 200x400, set those same values in text extends for the text source (possibly the "wrap" checkbox too), then adjust the size of the font so it fits nicely.
This way, both are of equal dimensions, and they shouldnt cause the resizing transitions like you were having.
How to display frame rates?
i just enable the FPS overlay within Steam, if i am playing a game thru steam. I think you can also add third party non-steam games and they will get the overlay
Both of these macro's are triggering when I hit run macro, even though the detected text is simple "10". Is there something I'm doing incorrectly with this "Contains Text" use in Advanced Scene Switcher.
I need to record a video and then display the frame number of the current frame in the video
Dang, I made an adaptive thresholding shader like 3-4 years ago that would have worked for that. Dunno if I ever posted it here or not. It's on my ancient offline PC... need to freakin recover that sometime soon and gather this stuff all together and put it out there somewhere one of these days.
one thing i may suggest is messing with the matching syntax and stuff in the asterisk. it helped with some of my adv scene switcher read twitch chat. i havent messed with the text detection on screen but if you figure out the answer id also love to know
any way other than NDI to combine highlight keys on local pc to stream pc outside of doing something wild like App-V, USB transfer cable or some KVM stuff? I remember there being something with using localhost to do something like that back in the day but I'm trying to avoid making my own python or rest type command
So far I've had to utilize "Allow Partial Match" which has brought it's own extra things to do.. but it's kinda working.
I donβt know if your thing will also always be in the same spot but I limited the reading box size to a certain area and that helped a little for recognition
Luckily mine will always will be in the same area
Clicking "run macro" unconditionally runs a macro and doesn't care whether the condition is true or false.
I realized this.
Is possible to write a ffmpeg command to split the audio and delay the audio (eg: 1st audio last 5 secs need to duplicate with 2nd audio's starting) in the obs by using custom support ffmpeg in windows
please give a suggestion for this !!
its urgent friends give some solution
you need an if>then command. it'd probably be easier to just use a rest api or a html/css code. basically just fetch and push i think
no?
a rest api... to interact with OBS???
what
anyone use the streamelements obs plugin? I want to learn how to stream to multiple platforms without having to go live on every individual platform
If you need help with StreamElements products or services, please join their Discord server or submit a support ticket. The StreamElement's support team is better positioned to help with your issue.
How can I share videos from discord's voice channel, but not through screen capture or app capture? Can anyone tell me?
that's essentially what the websocket control system is, no?
obs-websockets is a REST API, yes, but that's utterly irrelevant to what the person was trying to do. And for Pen's response I would bet the surprise was more... why would something already running as part of OBS use a REST API to communicate with OBS? (and using a REST API doesn't somehow give the ability to use or not use an if/then, either)
You can output it via HDMI to a hardware video capture card on the same computer or a different computer.
But if you're looking for a software way to get the video out of Discord you're out of luck as the program does not provide any mechanism to send video to an external program or anything like that. So it's either window capture, desktop capture, or output via HDMI to a capture card more or less.
Another option is to not use Discord and use something else that is perhaps more suited to the use case, depending on what it is.
I have an idea for a plugin but don't have the capability to make it myself, would this be the right place to put my idea?
You can always suggest an idea, but the chance of anyone making it if it isn't really broadly applicable is ... low.
Though suggesting an idea is probably also a good thing because half the time people do that, someone can immediately point them towards a tool that already does what they're looking for.
Epic thanks (:
I know plugins that show what Spotify song is playing already exist.
I was thinking a plugin that does that, but overlays the album/song cover onto a spining record, then have the song name and artist scroll by on the front in that "old" radio sort of font would be pretty cool
I am unsure if that would even be possible, but if anyone thinks it's a cool idea and wants to work on it, I would be more than happy to provide any art or anything needed for it
Big difference between a classic RESTful api and WebSocket is that WS is two-way communication where the server can send data as it sees fit, vs an HTTP REST api that relies on the client to make all request for data.
WebSocket is more like a combination of HTTP REST and HTTP EventSource
True, but even less relevant for this particular discussion. π (and except for event handling, obs-websocket is request/response, too)

Could..
- take a photo of a random album from Google Images, crop it so the center hole is in the exact center of the image.
- Edit it to give it a transparent background, and possibly erase the label on it.
- Make a custom label layer to look as desired as a background for text, which could just be a label off a real album that has it's text erased or something.
- Make a new OBS scene containing the album graphic, label graphic
- Use a spotify text overlay of some sort or make one that custom outputs the text in a way that overlays on top of the label the desired way.
- Use a rotation filter/shader to rotate the scene 33.3 rpm.
- use the above scene as a nested scene in the presentation scene, with a trigger to enable/disable the rotation filter when desired, which rotates the entire album, label, text all as one unit.
- Optionally put a background behind that of a turntable or whatever in the presentation scene, or a secondary nested scene that gets used in the presentation scene.
Any good plugins / ways to do a green screen effect? for ex. a plugin that replaces green screen with an image on a livestream
Could also be done in a browser source using CSS/JS
For an in-depth overview of greenscreens and how they work, and how you can improve your own, check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH8TWTt51W8
The Basics of Green Screen is Everything You need to Know. It's long, but I've included Chapter Markers below. I got tired of everyone making green screen work so complicated and wanted all this info in one place! I also demo how I shoot a green screen from start to finish, edit and render it in under 3 minutes!
2022: Everything I use now is l...
do you have an actual greenscreen?
The OBS chroma key filter is used for removing the green screen.
No, it's all done via Roblox
what
its a channel around Roblox content, and we do live shows (at least planning to do live shows) and need a way to replace a green screen to have content live
But I'll just watch that 23:40 minute video to see what it says
ok, but when you say "replace a green screen" you mean actual green pixels on the video, or you're using that term as a general catch for "background removal"?
When I say green screen, I mean pixels on a video that are colored green that need to a be replaced with a specific image instead
ok, then that vid is the correct one
Great
Thanks ill try that out (:
New question, is there a plugin or a way to distort an image in obs?
Sure, lots of them, depends on what specifically you're wanting to do though.
How can I livestream a video game on twitch
If your stream is disconnecting or OBS Studio reports dropped frames, follow our Stream Connection Troubleshooting guide for details on how to reduce these issues.
Hi, Has anyone tried embedding OBS modules (like libobs plugins) directly into an EXE using tools like Costura.Fody?
Iβm trying to package everything into a single EXE, but Iβm running into issues with module loading paths.
Iβve detailed the problem in my forum post here: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/how-to-resolve-module-loading-path-issues-when-packaging-obs-based-applications-into-a-single-exe.182758/
If anyone has experience with this or knows a good approach, Iβd really appreciate the help!
Thanks a lot! π
Hey i have a Small question, i try to show my Music on Stream (im using YT Music Desktop App) but i cant find any working plugin, even with Tuna i cant get it to work
You have YT Premium?
Try with Amuse 6k Labs
hello, i know i'm always here every few months with a big issues. with usually advise solutions to things i've already tried, but i'll gamble again and hope for the best
i'm having trouble with the telport plug in, i've been going at it for hours following at least 2 guides on how to set it up, i've done it properly. at least i think so. but with everything i've tried, creating rules with win defender. only enabling it on the gaming computer ( i'm trying to dual stream) and not the stream computer. both computers are as it should, the only thing that i'm wondering is if the fact i use an ehternet cable extender might have anything to do with it ( yeah i was forced to buy one bc maintence didn't like how i had my ethernet cable set up originally) so at present gaming pc has eternet, the streaming is off the wifi all though to same network, so, i hope i'm just dumb, or i'm not the only facing this problem, all help appreicated
and i use xfinitiy for my router
I need help with plugins
can someone spend a little time with me to figure this problem out?
desribe the issue. If someone knows how to help with that plugin and your issue, they will reply.
well ever since I updated OBS to version 31.0.0(64bit) about 7 plugins are not updating, I think I am updating them wrong or something. they are:
3D effect 0.1.2
Composite Blur 1.1.0
Downstream Keyer 0.3.3
Move 3.1.1
OBS Shaderfilter 2.3.2
Source Clone 0.1.5
Waveform 1.8.0
I used something called stream up to find everything that needs updating but I thinbk I have too many redundant folders, because OBS is killing my ram
I have 16gb of ram if that matters
I believe most of those can be updated by downloading their latest installers and running them. Make sure OBS is completed exited from running before installing any plugins. Do them one by one and test.
In that screenshot, OBS is not using 81% of your RAM, so don't worry about that for now.
ok everything but move and source clone worked out
how do i switch tik tok accounts
hello! curious if anyone has had success in porting the popular input overlay plugin by univrsal to mac, or if anyone knows of a good alternative for keyboard + mouse display? i don't need anything fancy, just something to show which keys/buttons are currently held
hello i need helping about plugin horizontally and vertically live streaming tool i am installing once time the plugin works well but when i am starting the livestream the Obs has been crashing and then i am 4time uninstalling and installing Obs and then plugins install vertically but the plugin not showing in the obs i have trying more time but not showing the plugin in the obs give me anyone solution
Hello, it can be broadcast on OBS, I mirrored it to Twitch, but the screen cannot be fully mirrored. Is there anyone who can help?

Hi everyone.
I'm a new developer for obs plugins.
Who know the sxample code url for plugins for obs31.0.0?

does anyone happen to have good documentation on converting either the MUL or dB value as part of InputVolumeChanged, GetInputVolume and SetInputVolume events/requests, from OBS-WebSocket to and from a linear 0-100 scale? (for use with HTML form sliders)
Ive been trying to figure out a conversion, but am coming up quite short.
Also i notice that the MUL value returned from the **InputVolumeChanged **event has a range of 0 - 1 that appears to be logarithmic , whereas the **SetInputVolume **documention says the value sent to OBS should be within the range of 0 and 20, so im not really sure what to make of that
here's the functions obs uses internally to convert db and mul to each other
mul is 0-1 between 0 and 100%, but obs isn't capped at 100%, it's capped at 2 000%, which is where the 20 comes from
thanks Pen, lemme do a quick test on the HTML slider side of things
π
so now the only issue is getting the HTML slider and the volume slider in OBS to visually reflect eachother
rcently did a bit of customizing sliders for obs docks, want me to give you the CSS I use for that?
would CSS actually fix this though, since its linear vs logarithmic
oh, that you can change in js, with basically a conversion layer
I thought you meant you wanted them to ressemble each other visually
happen to got some links to the math on that? this is the part that makes my brain want to hop out of my head and drop off a cliff.
Id need it to go both ways, converting the sliders linear to OBS's logarithmic (and emit the resulting value to OBS websocket) and then take the logarithmic value from InputVolumeChanged back to linear to set the slider to
id really appreciate being pointed down the right path on this.
(kinda wish i could just get the slider percentage directly from OBS without having to go thru all the conversion, but ill take what I can get)
I think I remember where it is, gimme 5
take your time, i appreciate the assistance
https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/blob/master/libobs/obs-audio-controls.c#L177
I think that's the one that converts from dB to fader percentage?
(the definitions of the constants it uses are just above)
oh nice, ill dig around this and see what I can figure out (after this tension headache fades... YAY MATH)
courage 
When using the streamlabs plugin for multi streaming does it use the same amount of resources as doing multi streams in stream labs itβs self?

What would someone suggest if i wanted to "rotate out" what is in my name plate for my webcam
like if every couple minutes I wanted it to swap between my socials
or the already included image slide show if you just want to switch between images
Hey there, folks. Anybody know of a real-time super-resolution software/plugin? Main use would be webcam enhancement and denoising.
create whatever socials tag names you want to switch out, then upload them to stream elements. you can make it into a gif that will cycle through your socials.
how can I put the subgoal that goes up on its own like the one that uses kai cenat
Is there any way we could update the bassasio version of the "obs-asio" plugin so it will work properly with the latest version of OBS? I'm currently stuck on OBS 29 because the new juce version of the obs-asio plugin doesn't work well for me. The bassasio version seems to function fine without any issues, but when I update to the latest version of OBS it breaks the user interface so I can no longer configure ASIO devices.
I tried checking it out and compiling it myself, but it looks like it's a bit too out of date so the build instructions no longer work
I'm not really familiar enough with the project as a whole to figure out what is going wrong
you tried reporting it?
Where is the appropriate place to report?
On the github issues section for obs-asio?
yeee
I'll give that a shot
check that it hasn't been reported before, and if not create an issue, try to be as descriptive as possible
Looks like something similar was reported and never resolved
https://github.com/Andersama/obs-asio/issues/112
It's 100% something in the juce ASIO that ReaRoute doesn't like. No idea what. But the bassasio version works great
My guess is that the juce version may not like sending audio from a 32 bit app and receiving it on a 64 bit app. I can double check to confirm that's the official problem and report it if it is.
i got obs 31 and im told websocket is built into it? how and where?
in the Tools menu
wierd im not seeing it on my end
- Outdated Plugins (1)
- Windows 11 24H2 (OK)
- Not Admin
- No Output Session
- Third-Party Plugins (11)
AMD Ryzen 7 3800X - OK! / Radeon RX 6950 XT - OK!
looks like you may have somehow removed it.
try going to the Help menu and select "Check File Integrity", let it do its then, and restart OBS when its complete
that should redownload it
when i do check file integrity it does nothing
did you install OBS from the download off the website?
you may need to just rerun the installer on top of the current install. It wont remove anything that is already there, so your scenes and settings will be fine
the BIG thing is to NOT install WebSocket 5 from the plugins section of the OBS website. That download is for OBS v27 only, and NOT for v28 or newer.
this actually overwrites the built in one, and then reports as being outdated.
just installing OBS on top of itself should do the trick. Not sure why Check File Integrity didnt fix it though.
File integrity check is disabled currently along with the updater
thanks man, knew the updater was disabled, didnt realize File Integrity was also disabled during the rollout
I think the integrity check needs some sort of manifest situation dealt with
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
that worked TY
I wrote up a pretty clear description of how to reproduce the problem π
https://github.com/Andersama/obs-asio/issues/159
This issue appears slightly different than the previously reported one
Hello guys,
Can somebody help me detect the issue here?
[obs-browser: 'Alertbox'] Error: [Report Only] Refused to connect to 'https://api.streamelements.com/science/insert/overlays' because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "connect-src 'none'".
that's not an issue, that's the usual stuff streamelements overlayys print
Thanks!
From what i have gathered from the MDN Web Docs, the Content Security Policy is set up on the web server side and configured to restrict what a web page they serve is allowed to load within it. Its to help prevent cross site scripting attacks.
Yet their own pages/alerts are attempting to load content that is outside of this policy restriction, causing the error/warning
my -best guess- is because the overlay is served from https://streamelements.com/, yet the scripts they are loading is from their https://api.streamelements.com subdomain (among others), which would violate the connect-src: none part of the policy, restricting things like...
fetch()
XMLHttpRequest
WebSocket
EventSource
Navigator.sendBeacon()
to only working from the main https://streamelements.com/ domain.
i believe their support has said it is an OBS issue, yet these errors/warnings also happen in a regular desktop browser, since it is a configuration on the StreamElements server side and their own code violating the config's policies
What about this?
18:20:05.786: warning: Could not update timestamps for discarded samples.
What issues are you having, that you are going line-by-line in the logs?
Hey everyone, happy holidays. Hope this is acceptable to post here, let me know if it's not. I'm looking for someone who can find/build (for a small fee) the following:
Looking for an always-on-top dual volumeter for single screen streaming purposes on Windows 10.
- Volumeter must include monitoring for both mic input and sound output, with about the same sensitivity/responsiveness as OBSβs volumeters
- Scalable to be as small as 0.5β by 2β
- Draggable/moveable
- Able to be oriented both horizontally and vertically
- Always-on-top
- Transparancy option
- Option be solid white instead of the usual green-yellow-red spectrum
- Option to hide menu e.g. minimize, close, etc., so only moving bars are visible
Mind you, I'm not looking for an OBS plugin, rather something that only I can see on my end (hence always on top).
Thanks in advance!
I'm experiencing an FPS drop issue lately, and I'm not sure whether it's caused by the game update (Dota 2), hardware, or internet.
FPS drop in what location? In stream?
no, in game
That sounds like the game, OBS and anything else on the pc are arguing over who gets what resources, and the game is getting less than needed for its settings. Are you capping the games' framerate while using OBS?
I didn't cap the FPS until recently, and I capped it at 240, but I'm recently getting around 100-150 fps. The problem is that FPS drops by 50 every few seconds (check this post https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/1g2va4r/fps_drop/)
cap it at 120 and test. Then at 60, see which gives you the best results. If you still aren't satisfied, head to #windows-support and report the issue there.
This channel is primarily for discussion around plugins and tools.
Sounds good, thank you for your support!
FWIW, https://minimeters.app/ does many (but not all) of these things. It's fairly configurable, and the developer is quite open to feature suggestions.

I do Lives on Twitch of famous series, because they are copyright-free broadcasts, the Lives always fail. For this reason I would like someone to modify the "multiple RTPM" plugin from "obs Studio" with a new function that detects that a transmission key has fallen and starts the next one.
Detection can be through Bites, e.g. when falling below 100kbps, start the next configured transmission key.
The plugin is free code.

I need help with the tuna plugin
So my idea is to attached this emoji to show that I am aggregated or frustrated perhaps in lv of game play that is hard.
My plan was to upload and chromakey the image. I want to attach it to my forehead.
Some people suggested me exeldro Nvidea AR move plugin.
But for some reason I canβt figure it out
Am I doing something wrong? What will be the options for this particular scenario.
Thank you in advance
yep, that would be the one to use. Andilippi has a video on how to use it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEaFXlf38ec
i dont use the plugin myself, so the best suggestion i can give is go over Andi's tutorial again. His discord is behind a Patreon paywall, so its up to you if you want to go that far. Maybe others here will know more about the plugin, but it is definitely a lot.
Guys, what's the best plugin for multistreaming?
The best one is the one that works for you and your goals. A lot of people like Aitum Multistream. Others like the multi-rtmp.
I would like the one that uses the least resources
SE.Live seems to drain more resources than expected.
When I don
They are about the same. If you are multistreaming at all, you will need more resources than single stream output.
When I don't have an OBS open, my FPS is around 150-200, but once I open OBS (without starting my stream), FPS drops to 80-120
is it solely because of the plugins, or some other settings are wrongly set?
You should be capping game framerates for capture purposes.

that refresh rate is pointless when you capture and record or stream at 60fps. Stick with game framerates (and your display) to multiples of 60. Try 120fps, then 60fps. See which one helps balance out your performance.
@rancid creek My guess would be browser sources and/or media sources, try hiding a few.
It's only in the main scene
Where I have game capture
other scenes don't have the game capture, that's the only difference
But all those sources are ready in the background. That adds up and uses resources.
I like my game smooth and clean, that's why my settings are high, and my FPS is capped at 300.
I even have no issues when streaming, but I noticed an FPS drop recently
If you want to. But media sources can be set to "close when inactive", and something similar on browser sources.
so I have a few potential culprits:
- Game update
- Plugin install
I started streaming on 4 canvases (instead of two)
- More canvases
I count 7 media sources that are not set to "close when inactive". That means they are all loaded in the background, all the time this scene collection is in use.
Okay, I will set them to inactive, just a sec
Sounds like you shouldn't have four active streams at the same time, if 4 is when you have issues. But I still say there is no point in trying to play more than 120fps when you are only streaming half of that.

Log won't show what happens in game. It's up to you to adjust the game and your scene collection to get a balance that works for you.
I mean, I just want to check if I set all the sources to inactive
that's what I referred to
Also, one question - if I'm not live, but in my plugin, it's set to stream on 4 platforms, is it kind of "prepared" to stream so it's taking away the resources
I can't help with that, I have to go.
or it's taking resources once you go live?
It doesn't work like that.
Your scene collection and any active canvases from other plugins are being rendered, stream or not active stream.
so if you start OBS and you notice an FPS drop, it has to do with files, not the multi-stream plugin
okay, got it
thanks for your support!
well, it does if you are using 4 canvases too. That's 4x time sources.
Seriously thank you for the help in this community. There is always someone helpful here. Also thank you for the developers of the plugins and the content creators too that show how to use them.
Hey, any plugins for Replay Buffer at all?
To do what?
Can you link me to wherever this tutorial is at? (If you still have that)
Please & Thank you!
^^^ Lastly you put all the filters qnctions using streamerbot nutty has a great video for beginners. I stated just yesterday so itβs not hard to understand.
any good overlay inputs like this keyboard and mouse?
there's quite a few different presets in the plugin's files yee
@spiral ruin I'm trying to look for one that is capable of automatically saving my replays after a certain amount of time has passed.
But if I can see all of what is available in terms of plugins for replay buffer in general, that may help.
As I may be able to come up with ideas through others if what I exactly want isn't a thing.
what is the overall use-case?
The Replay Buffer is meant to be triggered when something actually happens that you want saved, and not on a timer where it could just randomly save something.
If you need it simply on a timer, you could use something like Advanced Scene Switcher and build a macro with it to trigger the Replay Buffer to save on a set timer
if you want to split recording by time, that can be done with the normal recording, no need for replay buffer or a plugin
Okay, so I tend to record calls and such with friends in order to use for video editing.
But, I often in the past would waste storage by having using Recording instead of Replay Buffer, as 1. It's more to delete if I don't want it. And 2. I have a bad habit of wanting to keep things I really don't need, and I am trying to fight against that.
With Replay Buffer it's way better. As I can set how much it saves to a really high amount, hit play, and I save whatever I have recorded at any time whilst it keeps on going.
Of course, I tend to do this manually and still wish to. But I also would like something setup where it can save them every X amount of minutes or something like that, for situations where I am worried whether my PC will crash or something.
And once my session is over, I'd delete all the older saves, and keep the latest one, of course.
But, I have no clue if such a thing exists.
in this case, just enable File Splitting with recordings
you can split by time intervals, by file size limits, or via a hotkey much like replay buffer's hotkey
it would basically do what you are asking for, but also would not be a waste of active RAM
Is there a way I can do this without it splitting the files?
But just continuing the recordings whilst saving like Replay Buffer?
how is that not what you're asking for?
if you are running the replay buffer with a max time of 10 minutes (you would need enough RAM to handle that amount of time as well, otherwise the length will be limited by your RAM), and you have a script save the buffer every 10 minutes, then its the same as just splitting a recording every 10 minutes
the Replay Buffer on its own is meant for the following situation...
- "OH, something cool just happened within the last 2 minutes on air." -presses save- "Cool, I have it saved"
Hi everyone!
Iβm trying to set up my subscriber goals to appear for a while and then disappear automatically. From what Iβve seen, thereβs no native way in OBS to make this happen automatically.
Currently, Iβm using the Move Transition plugin. My idea is to move the goal off-screen and set a delay on the filter so that the motion loops when activated. However, I noticed that when I try to position the element elsewhere, it continues in the same looping cycle.
Does anyone know an easier way to achieve this? Or could someone guide me on how to set this up correctly using Move Transition?
i believe StreamLabs and/or StreamElements have specific overlays for this that are already made
As I've said, I wanna have it save whilst still recording.
So it can keep saving and backing up whilst its happening, so if a crash occurs. I haven't lost too much.
which is what splitting recordings does, especially if you use Hybrid MP4 or MKV, which wont get hurt from a crash
if your system crashes, anything still in in the RAM alloted to the replay buffer that wasnt saved is gone
Okay, maybe I didn't explain it properly.
When it keeps saving, I don't want it to separate the recordings.
Basically, do what Replay Buffer does when you click the save button.
But, have it click that button automatically every X minutes.
this sounds like a typical request but what you are describing is just normal recording w/ a safe container like hybrid mp4. replay buffer would be separate recordings each time also but it is much less safe than the first thing I mentioned.
but what replay buffer the data isn't written until you press the save button so if there were a crash, you'd lose everything that wasn't written vs. a normal recording with hybrid mp4 where you would have all the data up until the crash happened.
if you really want to do what you are describing you can set advanced scene switcher to automatically save replays every x amount of time but based on everything I've seen written here I don't see what that accomplishes
yeah, just do a normal recording to hybrid mp4
@stone tendon don't promote your twitch channel here please.
I'm fine with that. I'm okay if a bit is lost because of that.
But if I can setup the kind of system I want, I will lose far less.
So how exactly can I set Advanced Scene Switcher to save replays? Cause I can't find anything to do that in OBS.
have you downloaded and installed the plugins already?
plenty of guides on their wiki https://github.com/WarmUpTill/SceneSwitcher/wiki
but because I don't really understand the point of what you're trying to do (seems like backwards logic) I wouldn't really want to spend any time walking through it myself.
I wasn't told of any plugins.
You can use powerful macros in OBS Studio using timers, cursor detection, window detection, and more to automate switching between scenes, toggle sources, and many other options.
To get started, install the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin and see the GitHub project wiki to learn how to use it.
But yes, as multiple folks here have said, what you really want is just auto splitting of recordings. Far less chance of losing anything with that. Replay Buffer has a much higher chance of data loss from a crash or outage of some kind
Even more ideally, find out what's crashing the PC and get that fixed.
Since replay buffer doesnβt save the buffer UNTIL the save is triggered. So if the save isnt triggered before a crash, that potential recording is lost (since it was sitting in RAM)
Direct to drive recordings are being written in real time, and if using hybrid mp4 or mkv (as stated before as well) that recording will still be usable after the crash
I know, but even when that is sorted, having this system would be helpful either way.
When that is sorted, you won't lose what's buffered in RAM
And that RAM can be better spent on other things
Okay, so I just installed the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin. What do I need to do in order for the changes to come in?
Cause I'm assuming it would add settings to OBS.
Tools > Advanced Scene Switcher
Is there possibly a list of variables you can use for Advanced Scene Switcher when you program your account to send messages in your chat?
!advancedsceneswitcher
hm
!ass
had to try it, heh
But anyway, the repo for it has a tooooon of documentation.
Only if I get a betting pool on how fast you get it removed
you mean an aliass
you guys mean Advanced SubStation Alpha? 
i havent seen sas like that since Serial Attached SCSI

Any voice changers plugin?
That's typically done with 3rd party software, not with plugins. You can however use VST 1.x/2.x with OBS and alter voices, such as ReaPlugs ReaPitch, which can alter pitch and formants and make realistic or cartoon sounding voices. For anything more than that you'd need proper voice changing software however.
the VoiceMod software being one of them
Voicemod or Clownfish.
Thank you guys I wanted to add like a demonic type of sound.

guys how do i remove mouse clicks from my mic
Keep them as far apart as possible. Make sure the front of the mic, the part you speak into is facing you and the mouse is on the backside of the mic. The mic should be as close to your mouth as possible, licking distance, and as far away from the mouse as possible.
You can also try a noise suppression filter, or consider a dynamic mic vs a condenser mic.
okay thank you
Try adding a noise filter to your mic. If you have NVIDIA RTX GPU, the NVIDIA noise filter is remarkable for removing unwanted background noise like a champ. There is also RNnoise and other filters one can try as well.
I was wondering if anyone knew if I could use Advanced Scene Switcher (or another plugin) to fade out an audio input without changing scene?
I play music at times during my stream (via Apple Music) and there are times I need to stop the music so I can hear something in game etc. At the moment I just pause the audio but that just hard stops the audio. I'd like to fade that audio out when I press a button (and pause it ideally) whilst staying on the same scene.
I can't figure out if this is possible.
Yes, you can fade audio based on other conditions.

YW! Love that advss plugin. Amazing.
that was easy. Added a Multi Action Switch to my Stream Deck, first press runs the macro, waits 6 seconds then pauses the music, second action runs the second macro which sets the volume back to normal and plays the music π Oh I'm going to have fun with this plugin.
Awesome! Happy OBSing!!
does anyone know if there is like an app or program that lets me capture multiple chats into one? like from youtube, tiktok, twitch, and any other streaming "things" (platforms, websites, apps, whatever word u wanna use)

hi
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Why what is happening
Generally better to state in words "Does anyone know why <verbal explanation> is happening?" as people may not bother to watch a video if they don't know what they're looking for, and it isn't always obvious to the person watching as it is to the person seeking help who knows what they want to happen that isn't happening.
I'm using this tool to do a controller overlay of my fightstick. Using a Browser source works as expected, but as soon as OBS is not the focus (say for example I launch a game) it stops working. Does anyone have any ideas? Once OBS is the focus again, it starts working
ISO move plugin help - specifically, how can one setup so that when scene become active everything resets and starts from begining of script. so far, everything ive tried, when i switch from scene WITH move plugin, it pauses where its at in the script, and resume upon scene activation ---- i want to have so that everyime scene activates, the script starts from step 1
!advss
Advanced Scene Switcher can do that.
You can use powerful macros in OBS Studio using timers, cursor detection, window detection, and more to automate switching between scenes, toggle sources, and many other options.
To get started, install the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin and see the GitHub project wiki to learn how to use it.
i dont see it ---- is there nothing within the move plugin settings that can instantiate a reset to the 1st action of script upon scene load? ive only a 5600X and its ramps to 15% obs usage when using MOVe plugin with 5 media sources, looking for streamlining here
Don't see what?
hhow ASS could help
It's a macro maker, so that you tell it where to set the sources for their "first positions".
As for performance, the more Move filters you have, the more resources will be needed, along with everything else in your scene collection needing resources.
i dont feel like macros would help here, id need to tell the scene to HIDE all sources on current scene prior to scene switch and that sounds convolutaed --- i was hoping the MOVE plugin could be configured to HIDE all source upon switch so that when switched back, it could start at STEP 1
If you use Touch Portal or Streamdeck, you could also set first position commands as well.
A macro is just a script.
The move plugin is an action. ADV-SS can have triggering events to run the commands.
commands/actions.
We do things like that all the time with ADV-SS
the thing is,that when the scene loads that uses the move plugin, it resumes from its last position - ive it set where, when im on the scene the move script is running but if the scene changes, it essentaillly pauses the script, when the scene becomes active again it resumes- ---- i want it so that when i switch to said scence, it starts at step one.....problem is, its like it pauses mid script and resumes when i switch back
Then you need a macro so that when you switch to that scene, the sources are position to that desired "first position".
MOVE plugin doesnt function that way tho. its not about position. the move plugin runs macros to move sources positions as it goes through the script. the script is a "filter" but when i switch to primary scene, and switch back, the script just carries on -----------
Not sure what to tell. It can be done because people here have done that stuff. I use TP for it personally.
how could i use a macro plugin to accomplish my goal ? id have to hacve the macro, somehow, on scene load, "hide"all sources then "show" the start of the script -- sounds convoluted?
do you have an example? forgive me i have the tism harrrrrd
I can't write it for you, because I'm not at your pc. And I don't have examples because this pc I'm on isn't my main recording rig.
i dont need anything written, i need to understand where you're coming from and for you to understand where im coming from, thanks anyway but i feel like theres a big discon here --- pretty sure when i initially researched the MOVE plugin, the dev had a way to to acomplish the goal i have, but i lost the server. th dev helped me here with one priror issue. great plugin but the guy has it configured in the weirdest way..atleast for someone like me lol
thanks for trying bud, ill let you know if i ever get it solved π
Anyone know of a plugin that can get api info and if it receives a 1, it shows a certain graphic, if it gets a 2 it shows another.?
is it better than obs one
It's better than pretty much everything, it uses machine learning to remove unwanted noise. To see how impressive it is, search youtube for NVIDIA RTX Voice demo. There's a video of a guy talking into a mic while using a leaf blower, vacuum cleaner, banging on the desk with a hammer while talking and all you can hear is him talking very slightly muffled.
how do i enable it
guys how do i fix my mic its buzzing
hello ππ» does anyone know how to remove the background from your web cam with out using a green screen? i was told obs removeD the "remove background option ugh
Obs never had a "remove background" option
Or do you mean the background removal plugin changing what options it offers?
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."
I guess that filter would indeed be considered "part of obs" but was def not something that was removed then 
This message needs an update with 31 and Noise removal being it's own filter now.

i dont know if there is a hotkey or plugin, but when switching to 1440p from 1080p i have to manually change it everytime. any chance there was a plugin?
If you mean simply changing the base and output resolutions, you can use a different OBS Profile, one for each resolution.
ok, but if im in the middle of recording when testing a gpu and different resolutions. id have to stop and change profiles each time
and readd all the scenes and stuff manually
You would never want to change OBS settings like resolution during a recording. In fact, most are locked once an output is active, like an active stream or recording.
profiles arent linked to scenes
If you have two different Profiles, each with a different video resolution, you would also want to have a scene collection to match the Profile.
but yeah, if your canvas is different then you want different scene collections for each profile
Hey is there some kind of plugin that can make so when my obs boots up automatically on my pc minimized it also starts my docks minimized and attaches them to the same place?
A plugin would be for after OBS is running. This sounds like you want to run launch commands from the shortcut that starts OBS. https://obsproject.com/kb/launch-parameters
Yeah I thought this might be a thing that is a plugin that also minimizes my docks and locks them and the same position I used them last time
Docks position and size are a little weird in behavior.
Does OBS still support NDI. Iβm trying to connect my NDI PTZ OPTICS camera to OBS so I can stream to YouTube? Is their a plugin that I can download?

i don't think this will get you all the way there but you can at least set up multiple dock configs that are easy to switch between: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/jrdockie-save-and-load-window-and-dock-layouts.1955/
Is there a plug in that allows me to capture a specific (dock) to show on stream?
What dock is it?
I'm not familiar with that one, what does it do for you?
It captures any windows source and can be set as a dock.
I think that one lets you make a Windows app or other window into a dock
So now by obs has a browser source
Then just use a browser source
I dont personally use it, i worry it would couple apps a bit too much to obs and if something crashes what would it do to the dock and obs
Browser Source, or a custom browser dock, or the Source Dock plugin to make an already made source into a dock
But he wanted to make the dock a source, I think.
ah, you want to interact with the browser source by doing it through a dock.
Yes
By using source dock to dock a browser source you can interact with the browser source in the dock
guys how do i fix my mic its buzzing
when installing a plugin, do I need to place a .ZIP or an extracted folder in the plugin place and do I need to activate it in some manner within the OBS itself beyond just restarting OBS?
Generally it's just a matter of dropping the zip contents into the correct folder with OBS nor running.
on windows, it's usually better to use the provided installer instead
ahh fair
thank you so much

Does anyone have smth to like display buttons i hit on my keyboard like when I hit wasd or smth on stream
What is the danger of setting up your discord to post that streams are live as a result of the user clicking Begin Stream, VS setting up 3-4 bots to Monitor the APIs attached to Twitch, Kick, Trovo, Picarto, Tik Tok Live, Facebook gaming, and much much more?
Probably no danger, if your goal is to create greater accessibility to finding your channels and when you are live.
Firstly Thank you Papa Luigi.
Now if I follow this properly I can set up a Webhook in OBS, to push a event in Discord which will post a message. And that will be everything neat and tidy with no securty risk?
Does it detect whether bandwidth test mode is on? Wouldn't want to sen a notification while troubleshooting.
Good thinking
I don't know what you think is a "risk" here. You are simply triggering a post you are setting up to go to Discord.
While helping my friend set up his OBS for Twitch and Picarto, I found myself on a Tutorial path that required 2 bots and a Free subscription to Github, most resources I turned to acted as if this was the best way. I am not tech savvy so before I assumed my idea which seemed simpler and easier was best I thought to ask if there was a risk. I figured that people did not use this method for a reason.
People tend to follow the path of least resistance when learning something new. That's common, and can be good or bad. Something can also be said in favor of keeping things simple, and how much return you get on any effort to set up the bells and whistles of live streaming.
With that out of the way, there are many different ways to do what you want to do: notify through Discord when certain stream channels are live. Pros and cons to most. Do what fits your workflow and what you are willing to maintain and troubleshoot.
Thank you Papa Luigi and @untold jay, if y'all ever find yourself in my art stream I'll draw you something.
Hello! I am having some issues with locating a plugin that is causing preview scaling issues.
I am having a big issue with the Preview Window scaling for sources not being accurate to the red border for sizing sources.
To explain, I changed my Base Canvas Resolution and my Output Resolution from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440.
When I did that, it caused the Preview Window scaling to be inaccurate to the size of the sources. Example in picture provided.
You can see that the red border for the source is not reflective of the actual size of the source.
I booted up OBS in safe mode as a test, and the issue disappeared. So, I am pretty sure that an OBS plugin is the cause, but I am not sure which one.
Here is a list of OBS Plugins that I am using:
- freeze-filter
- distroav
- source-copy
- pixel-art
- obs-advanced-masks
- 3d-effect
- obs-multi-rtmp
- obs-quick-access-utility
- obs-toolbar
- obs-noise
- StreamDeckPlugin
- source-profiler
- obs-stroke-glow-shadow
- downstream-keyer
- source-clone
- obs_google_caption_plugin
- obs-websocket-compat
- obs-streamelements
- obs-composite-blur
- streamup
- move-transition
- obs-shaderfilter
- obs-detect
- obs-streamelements-core
- obs-rendering-lag
- blur-filter
- logi_obs_plugin_x64
My question is, which OBS Plugin would cause an issue like this?
Here are my logs:
Log contains debug or verbose error messages (browser/ftl/directshow/etc), for a filtered version click here
- Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduler
- Browser Not Accelerated
- Capture Interference
- Windows 11 23H2 (OK)
- Not Admin
- No Output Session
- Third-Party Plugins (27)
AMD Ryzen 9 5950X - OK! / GeForce RTX 3070 - OK!
Do you still have the issue when you disable the downstream keyer you have active?
i believe so. i accidentally deleted it and almost shit myself for no reason and it was still happening
have people been reporting this issue?
What I am going to do when I get home is install each plugin 1 by 1 on a different drive and see where the problem lies. was hoping not to do that by posting here in case someone had the answer, but c'est la vie
Do you think the Output Source would be the cause?
It can be depending on how the scaling is converted. Changing resolution changes the scaling of sources, if that source (like an output source) also becomes an other resolution itself it can double up the scaling.
ah gotcha
so here is something, when I scale it down far enough, it shows no other sources
so basically it is just scaling wrong
ill test it when I get off work
Is there some guidances / doc for he new split of the config file in OBS 31 from a plugin development perspective?
This is the commit for the split : https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/commit/2635cf3a2a62cd43b8a577b662d0f4ad1fee1bc4
For example on DistroAV, there is a mechanism to check if there a new update, this can be turned on or off by the user but it kinda is in the scope of the "app" (aka a global settings and not something too specific)
An update check would be app config

It was the Output Source. It automatically enlarged itself when I changed the Base Canvas Resolution
why is input displayer plugin not working on linux
i installed it and its just not working
doesnt show up or anything
Did I see a conversation recently about an OBS Back Up Utility? I find myself suddenly needing such a thing. I did do a search and read the FAQ first. I didn't find anything so specific but I swear I thought I saw someone talking about it here a few days ago when I was looking for something else.
there
was totally searching the wrong terms lol ^^^^
do i highlight all 4 files in the destination or something?
I have been streaming on Kick but i am going to multi stream so on kick and twitch and how can i see both chats?
If it makes sense
no, you just pick a folder you'd like to export to and type in a name you'd like to save it as.
you could pull them up in a web browser or add them as custom browser docks in OBS.
Don't know any that allow typing but if you just need one for a looksie then this is what you want. https://beta.kick-chat.corard.tv/
Hello. I was wondering if anyone can help me solve this problem on OBS. So I opened my OBS just today and my twitch stats is completely gone. My chat is still there, but not my twitch stats. I went into the docks menu and it only showed me the OBS stats.

Hi All, i just got the OBS rtsp server working and sending out a rtsp feed to another software. Any idea how I adjust bitrate and video quality for the stream using rtsp plugin ?
Figured it out. All good thanks anyways.
I'm trying to instal the Source Profiler Plugin, but it said it was supposed to show on the Tool submenu, but I can't find it, any help?

I'm pretty sure source profiler is for v 31, not lower. Just a min
ooooh, i just realized i never updated OBS to 31, I think you're right
Yep, been reading the docs for it
I think I skipped by accident the update to 31 so at some point I forgot I ever updated hahaha
Oh yeah, I updated and now everything is showing up
Thanks a million for that
Great news. YW!
I have a problem when I add a chat or broadcast address. Everything becomes like this and is unclear and includes adding a crystal. How can I solve the problem?
Note: I deleted the program and installed it again, and the same problem did not change anything

Thank you very much 
so i use stream elements obs and im trying to set up tuna plugin so i can show currently playing music within the ytm desktop app, and i use their installer and it doenst show up in tools
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/tuna.843/ this is the guide im looking at

multiple game capture?
i can update it and everything but multiple game capture?
im not sure what that means
Tuna is attempting to load but likely the version you installed is for current newer obs
So you should indeed update because v29 is quite old
whats the current version
31
im trying to update it and its saying software update available but its not giving me the popup to update anymore
!download
OBS Studio can be downloaded:
- directly from the official OBS Project website: https://obsproject.com/download
- Microsoft Store (Windows)
- Steam (Windows, macOS)
- Flathub (Linux)
Grab the current installer and run it
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/tuna.843/
There are guides for setup on thos page
im confused at this step, where does it want me to direct the file to
the ytm desktop app maybe?
can you link this specific page for me, i downloaded the desktop app a good while ago and cant remember the exact site
but im pretty sure it automatically has that intsalled as shown in the long list of plugins here\
im just more wondering where i have the file direct to
it says it wants a txt file but i dont know which one and where it would bew
yea I've spent the last 30 minutes messing with this and the furthest I've gotten is displaying album artwork from this YT music thing
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
i mean tysm for trying to help
honestly i migth just start having to use spotify or somethin
how did you get that btw, i can atleast try that
i got the text to show up, how do i get the album cover to show up
ive got it to kinda work but it just kinda keeps adding a line for the next song, when i need it to just list the current song
how would i do that
id imagine thatd be a code thing to just read the last line and output that but i wouldnt know how to do that
Sorry was playing some PGA tour. Screenshot your tuna settings and the variables you are using @nova quest
also thats cool af hope you did well
Click the "edit selected" then screenshot that next window
if i dont do that the text doesnt show at all
wait
it works now
it was making it like a weird giant size before
Nice job!
IT WORKS NOW YIPEE
Hi, is there a way to lock a 2d image to my face movements?
I downloaded the FaceTracker plugin which works on the camera...but I don't know if/how to anchor the other source to the motions
if you have a 20/30/40 series nvidia GPU I think the move plugin could do this with the NVIDIA AR move filter
Amazing suggestion. Now I have to find/fiddle with all the settings haha

Amuse is not working with OBS: application audio BETA does not pick it up.
It shows up on screen okay, but music from youtube desktop linked to amuse will not play. visually it works, but there's nothing coming thru audio wise
how i put text via obs
If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!
is there any plugins up to date thats a functioning soundboard?
Soundboards are often just apps that run on the pc, like the Voicemod soundboard, and you capture the audio from it. Other people build their own by adding media sources or even using remote devices like Touch Portal and Streamdeck to be the soundboard, again capturing the audio playback into OBS.
i downloaded multi plugin from aitum and its not working
like how do i make it work?
You say downloaded, did you also install it?

Vertical canvas is installed and running, but OBS doesn't see any other third party plugin. Was OBS running when you installed the Multistream plugin?
OBS needs to be closed when installing or removing plugins. Restart OBS and see if it's there.
Then exit OBS, and try reinstalling the plugin. If it detects that it is installed already, just uninstall the plugin first, then install it again. Only after all of that is completed, then start OBS.
Reread my message. Uninstall only if it asks when (if) it detects its' already installed.

If none of this works after installing again, head to Aitum for support of their plugin.

Are there any plugins that would make text fade out and then in again when text changes from a file?
For example if text changes from "Hi" to "Bye" within a file, it could fade out and in between the two?
Generally fancy stuff like that is the realm of Advanced Scene Switcher (which I think should be renamed to (OBS Canadian Tire (a joke only Canadians will understand)), and the Move plugin. Otherwise it is typically custom scripts.
Protip: help people help you by being specific about what you actually tried
Can anyone help with Audio move? I installed the update 3.1.1 to audio move but when i search my filters i cant find it
make sure you add it on an audio source
It's not showing up as a filter so i can't thats the issue it says it downloaded but its not showing up
are other move filters showing up?

Move plugin is not installed correctly
it did not try to load
did you use the installer or the zip?
i used the installer
what path did you install to and what path is your obs running from?
... I dont know what that means
in the installer you get an option where you want to install the plugin, what path did you select there?
before this last update i just installed it and it poppede up in OBS after this last OBS update i had to unistall obs and reinstall it and i am working on fixing my plugins
it didnt tell me to select a path just a folder to put it in and I put it with my OBS folder
after it installed the installer finished and i closed it and nothing happened
the folder you selected looks to be wrong
i have in it the Obs studio plugins folder
^^ try doing something like this -- note that the text source isn't based on a file, it's just a plain text source, and then adv-ss reads the contents of the file you specify and updates the text source. Try that as it is there to make sure it updates the text source correctly, and then:
- make sure the text source has a transition set on it to fade it in and out over some period of time
- add a "scene item visibility" action before the action shown there to set the visibility to 'hide', and then add a 'wait' action right after that to make it wait the length of time the fade takes
- add a "scene item visibility" action right after the action shown there to set the visibility to "show" (you don't need a wait after this one)
Oops sorry that wasn't for me
Whups, sorry, you don't need the "Variable" action there, just the "source" action shown
Is the folder you used C:\Program Files\obs-studio ?
yes
does C:\Program Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit\move-transition.dll exist?
when i install it all it does is install and close in that folder all i have is the 64bit and the move transition 3.1.1 windows installer
thats is all that appears in that folder
is that 64bit folder in the 64bit folder?
is there a 64bit folder in the 64 bit fooder?
there i s an older verison in there
Not an OBS issue.
if you run the installer correctly the file move-transition.dll should be in that folder
oh ok, i gotta go pick up my kids quick and I wil try it when i come back
GOT IT! Thank you @weak escarp for your patience and help!
Legend
Works perfectly
Thanks for the help.
Any idea why it doesn't work in Studio mode tho?
Someone smarter than me will have to answer that one.
I think it might be because it was duplicating the scene
I've turned that off and it seems to work fine now.
Hello! I am making a unique tool that controls the speed of a media source using a midi device's dial. I have the midi device ready to use and I believe that using obs raw would be the way to do it. Is there a plugin that I can use to do midi to obs raw? I have searched and found midi-to-obs apps/plugins but none of them have obs raw function. Thank you very much for your help!
@alpine steeple Are you sure about that? I tried rapidly changing media source speed and got issues. Forgot what type of issues exactly, but it was bad enough to be unusable. Would rather use a video player like mpv instead.
Thanks for letting me know. I would like to try to make it happen. Did you do it a similar way I am looking to do it?
@untold jay
@alpine steeple I don't recall what I was doing exactly, but frequently changing media source playback speed causes.. max audio buffering, maybe?
Do you have an idea of a way I can try it out with midi?
@alpine steeple No, I wasn't using that, I don't know how to work with midi devices, or how to code applications.
Okay thanks for your help. I will keep what you said in mind. π
An idea for built in shaders for cool effects like a crt curve or crt tv?
Any additional help is appreciated!
are there any plugins that set obs as a real camera source
No
nope
are you sure
Well, you can look, if you don't believe us. OBS already has a virtual camera built into it, projector outputs too.
What is "obs raw"?
heh I'm glad you asked, I thought I was missing something.
so then that cant be my issue. having issues with sound then .. but its picking it up on the audio mixer though
Hi there! I need help with setting up a macro in advanced scene switcher for League of Legends, anyone can help?
Last thing i remember being called βobs rawβ was the website provided by StreamerBot, i believe, that allows for testing local instances of OBS via websocket
anyone knows if the Multiple RTMP Outputs Plugin For OBS safe to download?
Depends on which one you speak of and where you got it from.
If it was something that's listed on the OBS forum then yes.
Its from github here the link:https://github.com/sorayuki/obs-multi-rtmp/releases/ idk if anyone else has used it I only found it on a youtube video
and im wondering if anyone here has used atium and if it works fine
aitum tends to have issues with obs with all their plugins
sorayuki plugin works fine, i've been using it for quite some time. using it for twitch and kick.
That is indeed one also available on the forum which is one approved by staff.
So yes that is indeed one that is safe.
Hey. Sorry in advance is been asked recently..
Trying to use the Beta multi-stream with a TikTok output using the default Canva use for Twitch as I prefer landscape onto TikTok..
It seems successfully connected because shows my account name..
Ive had tiktok live access for months and recently key access from joining a team..
But when go live using the beta, get this message pop up:-
"Could not access the specified channel or stream key, please double- check your stream key. If it is correct, there may be a problem connecting to the server."
If you need help with StreamElements products or services, please join their Discord server or submit a support ticket. The StreamElement's support team is better positioned to help with your issue.

hey can anyone help me, i have increase my mouse pointer (cursor) size to 2 and changed the colour of cursor but when i record my windows screen and after see the video i not see any mouse cursor changes in colour or size please help me anyone if anyone know
If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!
I apologize for my misunderstanding. I was attempting to talk about a way to program with obs and I was most familiar with the streamerbot name βOBS Rawβ. I think a better way to refer to it is a websocket custom request.
I am looking for a way to change a media sourceβs properties using a midi device. I assume the best way is to use the websocket requests as many midi-to-obs plugins donβt have an option to modify specific properties. I hope I make sense and I thank you for your help.
@fervent marsh @carmine viper @obsidian agate
Aha. Today might be your lucky day, then. (...or unlucky day, depending on how much you like digging through other peoples' python)
You'll have to tease out the parts that you want, but https://github.com/alinsavix/ong-scripts/blob/main/ojbpm/ojbpm.py is a python script that listens to MIDI things (specifically, for tempo-related things, the midi beat clock) and figures out a few things and writes those things out to some temporary files, and https://github.com/alinsavix/ong-scripts/blob/main/ojbpm/setbpm.py is a script that watches for changes in those temporary files and updates the playback speed of sources in OBS matching a specific name, based on the bpm the first script comes up with.
(I write the state to temp files in a in-memory filesystem because the script is timing how long it takes to recieve a certain number of clock bytes, and I don't want the timing to get distorted by potentially blocking writes to physical disk or other potential interruptions. If your gear can output the tempo via a CC message or similar, you don't need to go through the gymnastics (or may not need to anyhow, I'm just paranoid).
There's a lot of wrapper code in those, but you should be able to find the parts that matter pretty easily.
@alpine steeple ^^
Thanks for your help. I will take a look. I mightβve just found a work around using tools I already have but if it wonβt work I will definitely try your suggestions. Thank you!
Though I'll warn you that OBS seems to really not like it when you try to change the playback speed of an already playing media source. But worth a try!
I remember a while back being able to add drop shadows to sources. Was that a plugin?
Yup, likely this one. https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/stroke-glow-shadow.1800/
Ahh thank you!
π Anytime!
Yeah. I got it working! That is the issue though. Restarts the video. Iβm sure I can work with it. Thank you again!

I am once agian asking why the amuse browser source is not playing any audio while it's connected to stream/YoutubeMusic correctly
i think maybe this one plugin is too much headache
maybe another music widget instead
heyo i would like to use the LoudMax plugin on OBS, do I need would I need VST2/3 or which? Also where do I need to place them
https://loudmax.blogspot.com/
ah I found it 
OBS only supports VST 1, 2. VST3 is unsupported.
Hello Everybody. Now I am develop the OBS python scirpt. But I have some issue. I developed face blur script and it is working well onetime. After rerun the OBS studio, there is no response. How can I run python script?
@jaunty turret Veirfy that on the "python settings" tab the correct python installation is selected. Not all python versions are supported; the lowest is likely 3.6, the highest might be.. 3.11? Unsure.
Do not DM random people out of the blue for help on your scripts. Please read the server rules again.
Thanks for your response. It ran successfully once, but after restarting the program there is no response at all. Current python version is 3.6.8
@jaunty turret Empty the python install folder field, restart obs-studio, then point at a python installation again. Try 3.10, maybe?
Thank you for your generous assistance. I will try it now and get back to you.
I have one question. Current OBS studio version is 29.0. So Can I use 3.10.9?
@jaunty turret I don't know, obs-studio should report which version was loaded, if it succeeds.
@untold jay Same state.
@jaunty turret What does the other tab say?
@jaunty turret Is this a script of your own making, or someone else's?
@untold jay Made by myself
@jaunty turretTry loading a known-working script, like this one.
This file working in my end.
@jaunty turret If you haven't made any scripts for obs-studio before, try reading:
https://docs.obsproject.com/scripting
https://obsproject.com/kb/scripting-guide
when you originally installed it, there should have been an Installer app you ran. Go to the Settings app in Windows, go to the Apps section, and uninstall it like you would uninstall any other program
issue isn"t intrusion it's that they had one whoopsie with microsoft defender that caused the file to be flagged and "holds" them like that in a state where they can't be deleted.
the solution afaik is to boot in safe mode and delete the files
!sl
if that doesn't solve it, go ask their support, theyy'll know better thaan us

@sour junco I think the updater runs all the time, run task manager and look for executables whose name starts with streamlabs on the Details tab.
i try to download obs and it says "close discord" i close it and i still cant
No i didn't tell you delete as many browser sources as possible. I told you a method of troubleshooting that would help you find out which browser source was causing problems
make sure it's closed in task manager
And i did suggest consolidating one set of browser sources that could probably be combined
@sour junco Are you able to remove it now?
I'm telling you it was me. You can search. In fact I think you should.
Did you do the stuff I said to test which browser source was causing the problem?
Getting rid of all of them does NOT find out which actual single one was causing the problem
You were in the middle of a stream when I was helping you earlier?
Please don't do that. You can't concentrate on getting help when you do this and I can't ask for relevant information when a stream is ongoing.
If you have an issue, you need to come in here when you are not streaming. Full stop.
So if you have now stopped streaming, go back and read what I suggested you do again.
Doesn't matter. We can look at logs after a stream is over. We cannot troubleshoot during it
Ok, well I can't spend my time on this issue when you won't follow suggestions. Bye.

Question for someone who does .hlsl .effects in OBS. Is there a way that I can get the elapsed_time to reset when the user shows a filter or hides it? I have an effect that, reacts to elapsed_time by reducing the effect until you can't tell the shader is active anymore. When it loads, the effect shows, but I can't get it to start the animation again when you hide the filter.
Looks like that wouldn't be built into OBS... the plugin that I'm using to load the .effect filter would have to handle that. bummer.
ik that the exeldro version has some control over elapsed_time, not sure how much or if it'd work in your case
In obs-shaderfilter there is a checkbox called "Use Shader Time" make sure that is checked
and grab a test build from the bottom of this page when logged in to GitHub:
https://github.com/exeldro/obs-shaderfilter/actions/runs/12684900485
When I plug in my capture card to my PS4 an laptop it only shows rainbow colors can someone help me
Why does it show rainbow colors on my PC screen
when i click on properties video capture device obs automatically shuts off idk what is the issue
Thanks @weak escarp. I did try that. And, Reloading the shader did work, but, I'm thinking of making this a stream deck button.
I ws able to get the effect that I was looking for from another shader plugin.
There is another plugin that fills in two additional uniforms
uniform float builtin_elapsed_time_since_shown; // Time since the source was made visible
uniform float builtin_elapsed_time_since_enabled; // Time since the filter was enabled
Then, inside the pixel shader, you can do
// Determine active time using both built-in timers
float active_time = min(builtin_elapsed_time_since_shown, builtin_elapsed_time_since_enabled);
or wherever. They're globals.
in the version I just provided I made elapsed time being since shown, is that not working?
I had already moved on by the time that you responded. I didn't realize that you just added that now.
Haha, welp
Ok, just to make sure I have this correct, With the new build, I should be able to get a reset version of the uniform float elapsed_time; with Use Shader Time checked. And, it resets when the user hides and shows the filter?
I'm not sure it's working like that Exceldro.
OBS is not able to capture my PS4 game play with my capture card its not popping up usb source

Hello! I am looking for a viable solution to animate GDI+ text.
What I want to do is give it a color and animate the individual letters to jump up and down slightly. The purpose is to create a Streamer bot alert when someone follows or subs or bits. The username be colored and animated.
I just can't exactly find a plugin or the way to implement Move value for this type of thing. I was wondering if anyone knows
I found exactly what I want, I just dont know how to sync it with my Streamer bot to change the words inside the link
use streamer.bot to change the URL of the browser source that you render this in
Wait that's actually doable?
I understand what you tried to do ^-^'
Just that the browser source that I thought I found won't really work for me sadly, need to find another one
why not?
For one it's bit small but I might be able to adjust that somehow, and 2nd it has this 3D effect under it that I didnt notice before
you can just override the css for that
That may be true but I got no skill on that part
add div.jump { -webkit-box-reflect: unset; } to the custom css
You're a wizard
and to increase the font size, also add font-size: 48px; as well
or whatever size you want
Wish I could do this inside OBS instead of relying on the website to do it :/
yup worked
also add ```css
@keyframes jump {
0%,40%,to {
transform: translateY(0)
}
20% {
transform: translateY(-40px)
}
}``` to change how far the letters jump up
(change the -40px obviously)
font-family: FontName;
