yes, to clone Elgato capture
i tried create 2 new scene, i put different mic each scene, non source clone inside them. it still capture previous audio
I have not been able to replicate yet. What transition are you using? Can you provide an OBS log file? Can you provide screenshot of source clone settings?
hi! i have a issue with websocket is not appearing where tools, Im trying to use SAMMI. Im using OBS 32.0.2, some ideas?
Rerun the installer for OBS as is and it should reinstall it.

created a plugin to work as a custom dock using websockets for OBS that has slightly better Touch controls for a touch panel on PC.
(think Hyte Y70 type cases with the built in touch display panel) it's not perfect, but it's free for people to look at use and play with.
https://github.com/wkirby-212/Touch-Control-Dock
the important thing was it worked locally on the PC, and not requiring some paid for solution on a tablet.
feel free to take and use it or the idea and develop it into something of your own.
if you want to have people easily find it, you could submit it as a resource on the obs forums (however you'll have to change the name to conform with IP guidelines)
hii
i want open preview through wireless or with ip address to another laptop
Changing the name isn't a problem. 🙂 and thnaks for the tip
connected on the same network, or over the internet?
Added to the resources - Thank you.
It looks like source clone Troll face 2 has audio as it increases audio buffer in the OBS log file
because you mention about the audio in source clone.
i tried to turn off audio in every source clone i had
and it works well now.
Btw i still using the source clone version that u gave me recently
no more capture audio from the previous scene.
Thank you so much exeldro 👊
btw i have a question,
My OBS feels quite heavy. Is it possible to find out what’s causing the performance issues by checking the log files?
What are OBS plugins written in?
C++ primarily.
Aitum multi + vertical plugins help!
Can someone remind me (it has been a while) on how I get horizontal and vertical streams working simultaneously on YouTube?
Last time I did it was just with the vertical plugin. Now I have the Multi plugin + the Vert plugin.
Is the process the same? Scheduling streams in my YouTube, making sure stream keys are different etc?
I tried a test run and I could not get both going together. Am I missing a step?
How to cast your OBS screen to Discord and include the audio?
You were given the linked instructions, in #windows-support where you also posted.
can anyone help me with smth? i wanna add 5 more frames to this vtuber thing
im using audio move plugin with the source visiblity option enabled on both frames,
i wanna add 5 more frames so it looks more smooth and natural
Honestly if you want fine tooth control over animation, I wouldn't use OBS at all for that. Go with literal animation software, friend.
i mean i came for help with obs not be guided to external resources
It's easier to do what you want to do in animation software or even an NLE. OBS is a live compositor and not as efficient or effective in doing this.
I understand that; I use the movement and audio plugins a lot for animations and your want - to add a handful of frames - is just going to be easier with software targeted at doing that. Maybe someone else here will chime in with ideas if you wait around a bit.
im willing to put in the effort if it works!
Hey i was wondering if anyone here has messed with the local vocal plug in?
i downloaded it but every time i try to add it to the audio filters my OBS just crashes
or if anyone knew of any decent translation plugins
as i have some viewers who are native Japanese who have a hard time understanding english so i wanted to make it easier on them
Might want to look at ihazabeard's Stream Animate in the resource forum. Not sure if it will do what you want, but it is another option for animation using OBS.
Hello, I was wondering if I could get some help with figuring out my capture card issue

Hello! I'm working into a new plugin for creating a Service & Output, and I realized that the obs-studio is not adding new services registered by a plugin into the Settings UI. Is there a way to adding that auto-discovery to the main codebase of obs-studio to prevent forking the repo just for adding a new service to the list?
Thanks!
currently, no
I'm assuming you're with like the MOQ stuff and don't mean just adding a rtmp service to the list?
That's right 😊
Would it be taking into consideration adding this kind of "service discovery" into the obs-studio codebase? We would love to add that 😊
@ocean cliff full context : currently obs_service_t registered by third-party plugins will not show in the settings > stream UI, because the list there is manually created by appending the known first-party created ones, instead of actually enumerating all that is registered
(I'm a fkin nobody, my thought as to whether it'd be taken in consideration means nothing, but the person I pinged above should be able to speak for the project itself on this subject)
You got that first line right

Good morning everyone, sorry to bother you, I'm a guy from the Dominican Republic who's having trouble streaming and I was wondering if anyone could help me. I speak Spanish and I get by in English fairly well. Anyone with advice or free time for a call so I can explain my problem would be a huge help. Thanks!

how do i multi stream?
A third party plug-in for streaming to multiple endpoints is available for OBS Studio.
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/aitum-multistream.1991/
thanks do much!
so*
how long ago did obs include that? cuz i’ve checked a while ago and that wasn’t a feature
ik
so, obs has never included multistreaming,a nd still doesn't
you need aplugin for it
yeeah, also close to 200 000 downloads... not sure 11 ratings are highly relevant
you could, you know, test it for yourself and see
yeah true! i’ll test it out eventually but i’ll be watching videos about it soon
are there any plugins for multistreaming I wanna stream on Youtube, TikTok and Twitch but i think my wifi isnt good enough for that
A third party plug-in for streaming to multiple endpoints is available for OBS Studio.
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/aitum-multistream.1991/
is this cloud or smth?
what do you mean?
i mean i dont have the best wifi does it impact my wifi even more?
yes
oh
if you want to send only one stream and then have an external service redirect it to multiple services, you can check out restream.io, but be aware that it'll require paying them past a certain number of streams, and that it'll mean suboptimal quality especially on youtube
not if you want more thn that
no, it's a service, you stream from obs to it and it redirects it
Ok👍

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!
Hello does anyone have knowledge on branch output plugin? Using that with the goxlr are all audio settings supposed to be set to goxlr? or Are they supposed be set to master audio? I'm trying to have it where my voice when I record chat is recorded seperate from the game audio/pc audio/system audio but of course when I record the game/pc that audio is recorded as well
right now all audio is recorded which is easy to fix in editing but I would like to make it seperate if i wanted to edit my voice louder than the game or system audio or vice versa
you'd split the audio like normal and then select the tracks you want to record in the filter settings
!multitrack
To record multiple audio tracks in one file, particularly for video editing purposes, follow the Multiple Audio Track Recording Guide
I feel like I did that I think I got it messed up. I will check it again for sure
does anyone have any good music widgets that doesn't rely on spotify? i've been using hetisjoey's spotify nowplaying widget. i don't have any problems with the widget itself, but it's the spotify app i have problems with. its awful. it's not wanting to advance to the next song in my playlist. the song is "playing" but it's stuck at 0:00. tried every so called fix and nothing has worked. i wanted something that can work with local files and could dissappear when the song is paused/stopped like nowplaying.
can you have the widget automatically dissappear when the song isn't playing?
!advss
You could use advanced Scene Switcher plugin to macro that action based on the event of no song playing.
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.
thanks. im not sure if this is for me. need something clean and with animation.
You have to design around that goal, in Tuna. The AdvSS plugin is for showing/hiding it automatically based on song playback. I think Tuna is customizable for its looks on screen.
Otherwise, you may have to write something yourself.

i just sent them over here to get assistance setting up the twitch transparent overlay tool
oh, that seems different than what they asked
Can someone tell me which overlay resolution I should choose? from 720p to 1440p is listed here
Hello
Start with the smallest one, see if it's a good size for reading chat on your display. Change it until you find the one you like.
show the chat in the stream
unless they misspoke, they are trying to display a chat on their stream not read it themselves on their monitor.
Hello can someone help me to show the chat in the stream I have only one monitor
yes that is the full message.
They're wording is confusing.
the overall context is in w-s
"want to watch chat while i stream" -> #windows-support message
i then asked how many monitors they had and they said 1
@loud wedge henlo there, lil weird one about the macro properties of the Twitch macro for channels that aren't live.
I'm currently testing storing info from the twitch macro into variables, and am using this macro to test whether it works well.
What I happened onto is that if you ask it to check on a channel that isn't currently live, the macro properties won't actually be applied to the variable (I'm guessing the properties don't actually get defined?).
So as you can see in the log extract attached, if I set it to kyoslilmonster (currently live), it correctly fetches and puts in the variable the channel login. But after I switch it to frankiebleu (not currently live), even though it finds the channel (as shown by the fact it correctly sees I don't have channel point perms for it), it doesn't update the variable.
I've been able to reproduce that behaviour with every channel I have tried, the macro properties work only on live channels.
Is that known, is that intentional?
(1.32.4, btw)
Hello. helping a client. His OBS got an update and now everytime he records there is only one file getting saved. before there is always 3. one is the PiP format, second is mevo, and third is chrome.
How can i fixed it. I try to download an obs and source record but i cannotfind the source record when i right click to windows capture or video display.
hope some one can help
I can confirm that behavior, but that is indeed a bit surprising.
It seems like for streams which are currently offline the API request to https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams simply returns no useful data.
(Only {"data":[],"pagination":{}})
Maybe there is a different API call I can try which works for offline channels, too.
oooh, that's why, I should have gone into the code before bothering you.
https://api.twitch.tv/helix/channels
obvs won't give you some of the info that streams would, like the stream start timestamp, but it shoudl give you all that is valid while offline
Depending on what you need maybe this will work already:
But I will check https://api.twitch.tv/helix/channels too.
oh right, ty.
While I have you here, could I suggest the ability to create a new websockets connection from a websockets condition (rn only the actions can create a new one) and/or the ability to access the twitch and websockets connections tabs even when no connection exist in them (to create a new one)?
new websockets connection from a websockets condition (rn only the actions can create a new one)
Depends on the message type used in the condition.
If you receive a request you don't need to specify a connection since you don't know who will send the request.
If you want to listen for an event you need to specify the connection. (And there you can create new ones)
the ability to access the twitch and websockets connections tabs even when no connection exist
Sure, I will add a toggle to the General tab to always show the tabs.
If you receive a request you don't need to specify a connection since you don't know who will send the request.
hmmmm ouki then I might have fucked smth up because I didn't recieve the request till I did ccreate a connection, I'll check it deeper
as always, ty very much for the quick answers, you're a fucking treasure
(and if you're interested I just made what is potentially the most dangerous obspython script even more dangerous by allowing it to interact with adv-ss XD)
haha, sounds fun 😄

Just want to check if anyone asked this but I just updated to 32.0.4 and none of my plugins work

Shadow also isn't working

I'll give it a try. Thanks
Plugins still don't show up
Were you using a custom install location?
Let me check
OBS doesn't touch plugins when it updates, so this sounds like you might have two installations.
I believe you're correct
Greatly apprecaite you @hard jay

Glad it was something simple :)
As a note, I'd recommend removing the locations that you're not using
Wassup everyone. I'm looking for the link to OBS Background Removal Tool. The link that I have doesn't seem to be good. ANy Help?
Are you using an Nvidia GPU and looking for the files to install that background removal in OBS?
Or the one that is for non-Nvidia systems?
This might be a little complicated of a question. I’m using OBS with the atrium vertical plug-in. I also have a stream deck. I know there is an OBS set up for stream deck. Where I can activate a replay, buffer recording with the stream deck. My question is there a way to link that as well to the atrium vertical plug-in? Because I would like to record shorts and vertical format for YouTube. I don’t know if it’s possible or not, but I thought I’d ask. I can always set up a keyboard shortcut key too, but if it was all one button on the stream deck that would be ideal.

Hello I'm having trouble with the "Media Looper" tool. It has an option folder with a .txt file where you can change the duration of how long it will display in my case a .png. The default is 5 seconds and after changing the duration to any other number it still only displays the image for 5 seconds.
Just wondering if anyone knows how to solve this or knows if it's a known problem that can't be fixed. Thanks.
Is there any reason why OBS refuses to create a desktop icon, or stay pinned in my start menu? It would sure be handy not to have to search down my App list to start it every time.
Does your issue involve a plugin for OBS?
That’s the one
K, I'll take a few min to FAFO and see if I can figure it out
Okay, yup, same thing happens to me. I tried refreshing the source, restarting OBS, and it still just shows for 5 seconds. Ask Nerd or Die support.
Did you install it from the MSStore/Steam/Winget/OfficialWebsite/Github?
Hi
does anyone know the best way to multistream to tiktok and kick at the same time and the best multi stream chat
!you have a tiktok stream key
no
!multirtmp
use this plugin to multistream. Instead of streaming directly to tiktok (which you can't without a key), use it to send one stream to restream.io, which you can then redirect to tiktok
A third party plug-in for streaming to multiple endpoints is available for OBS Studio.
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/aitum-multistream.1991/
and for reading tiktok and kick chat?
that I don't know any specifics, but there's a bunch of different services proposing that
Closest without "too much fuss" is socialstream https://socialstream.ninja/
@narrow radish here is a screenshot of one of my video based alerts. It is a clip from Silent Night Deadly Night 2, the "Garbage Day" bit.
- its triggered by a reward redemption
- makes the source visible
- waits a good length of time, roughly the length of the video
- makes the source hidden
and the media source settings
I think I see where I may have messed up.
I didn't use visibility state as my sub action, I used Media State
I have all of my alerts like that in a Nested Scene, but that scene is part of a Downstream Key using the Exeldro plugin. That way, I dont actually have to put that scene in each individual scene I want to use it in, it just overlays it on every scene (and then I can "exclude" specific scenes with the DSKeyer plugin)
Oh thats genius, I assumed I would have to manually add the video sources for every scene
no, i just put all of the media sources (or even image sources for some) into a single scene, which the DSK plugin (downstream keyer) automatically overlays on every single scene (unless you set that scene to be excluded)
in the image above, i made a specific Downstream Key layer called "Alert Overlays", it only has 1 scene in it, but it could have more if i wished.
that scene named "[ OVERLAY ] - Special Alerts" is just a scene like any other, but DSK overlays it on top of all of my scene
So smart dude, thank you for pointing me in this direction.
I'm gonna get working on this right now
welcome 🙂
@obsidian agate New issue 😅 I set up the subaction just like in your screenshot, but now the video wont play when the desired command is entered.
I can see that the source is being shown and then hidden again, but the video doesn't play and neither does the audio
Screenshot the media file source settings, and the subaction section in streamerbot
Also, are you in the StreamerBot discord?
Does it start playing if you manually show and hide it?
And are you in the just chatting scene?
Thats a reason i use DSK as well, since all the alerts are in a single scene that is in effect “nested”, the show/hide works no matter what scene i am on
Alright, so:
-yes, the video plays when I manually show/hide the source
-I am in the just chatting scene
But I found out just now that if I manually show the source, let it play, then hide it again, the desired trigger command will cause streamerbot to show the source, play the video and then hide it again as i want.
Also, the video no longer plays when I launch OBS. however, I still need to manually show/hide the source before streamerbot will allow the desired command to trigger it
Weird, i dont have to manually do anything to get streamer bot to run it
It seems like I have everything set up like your screenshots, I wonder where the difference is
just tested mine out after restarting OBS, and using a chat command instead of the Channel Points. Both in the scene with the alert media itself, as well as in other scenes where the DSK overlays it, and it plays fine each time I trigger the command
Would studio mode fuck with this maybe?
nope, tested Studio mode just now when you asked, and it triggers it fine in the Program feed
I'm not currently in studio mode either, so i don't think thats it
Dang
id say pop over to the StreamerBot discord server and troubleshoot further with those folks. Someone may be able to point out something we are missing
My media source was in a group, so i took it out of that group and tried again but the result is the same. I have to manually hide/show it once to make the chat command work
Will do. thanks for helping me get this far! I really appreciate the advice
welcome
Im having an issue with se.live. Im trying to multistream and it was working for the longest time and now its not. The dock just keeps showing "unauthenticated". I have logged out and back in so many times as suggested but nothing. Anyone have a fix for this?

Needing help with the move transition. I have a Now Playing box that I want to slide into the scene whenever a text file changes. I will use Streamer.bot as a trigger to detect when the file changes (ive confirmed that works). However, I'm having trouble with the move transition and how to get the whole group to slide in and out
This is my group with all of the song elements
I currently have 2 "Move source" filters for the group "Songs", one SLIDE IN and one SLIDE OUT
Neither do anything
I have a feeling the problem is with the filters
SLIDE IN fitler (mind you neither one works)
You could do this with Source Transitions (Show and Hide) which you might find more intuitive for this usecase.
Where it just hides and unhides?
Set Show and Hide source transitions to Move and pay close attention to the drop downs ☺️
You can use it to do what you're describing for sure
Have the sources zoom on and off, slide on and off, any kind of movement
What is a source transition?
Its a transition (like fade in fade out) but applied to sources when you show and hide them
rather than to a scene when you switch between scenes
Where do I configure that
Right click the source in the sources list
Its in the context menu that pops up. You would do this to configure each source
This?
Can I do it to the entire group or do I have to do it to each individual source
Ah that works pretty good
Thanks!
I already see that I was 6ish versions behind but any chance this was one of the issues fixed between my beta version and the latest from yesterday?
Context is I was editing a macro within ADV-SS when it noped.
How can I have these bars
The YouTube channel name? Probably an overlay thru an alert service, or they simply made it themselves in an image editor like Photoshop or GIMP
I would like to have YouTube bars, kick, twitch, tiktok, etc. I would be happy if they were free.
Check on services like StreamLabs and StreamElements for their overlays. NOT their plugins, just the basic browser source overlays.
Or look into downloading the GIMP image editor (also free) and learn how to make your own overlay images
You could even do this within OBS using a combination of plugins, macros and sources layered together, but this can become very complex and not a first option IMO.
I was asking on streamlabs discord they said they don’t provide those
Streamlabs doesn't provide the actual image. It appears that is their channel logo. You can create that yourself in Paint or Photoshop then add it to your stream with the Image Source.
@slim terrace just add this as an image source and then add a text source next to it with your name
You're welcome.
Welcome.
And im kinda surprised that streamlabs doesn’t offer some sort of “here are my social media links, etc” auto cycler overlay.
They do. You just have to supply the image(s).
https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/widgets/sponsorbanner
Streamlabs doesn't generate the images for you. 😉
You're welcome!
Which does everyone prefer to stream on? Vertical? The original horizontal?
I'm Team Horizontal.
Feels, I do see how the vertical can be pleasing for people holding a smart phone, but I believe most people are using a tablet or laptop when watching streams, so hori is the way then.
Depends on the platform too.
People have their phones on them damn near 100% of the day, not so much tablets and laptops. And people often listen to the streams more than watch, while doing other things. Easier to do with a phone than a tablet or laptop.
Think how TikTok and IG work, as well as Facebook and even X for live broadcasts.
Yeah, I experimented with Team Vertical recently and see how it might give me some needed growth.
There are also plenty of folks who simply lurk, so whatever video content one may have is generally useless with lurkers, and the audio side (both quality and entertainment value) can be far more inportant
i can't install plugins on my mac M4 pro, help please
which installer did you use
The native Mac way is double-click, hehe
double click on what
as if I were doing it in any program
right so we go back to which one did you use
because as you can see, there's three installers here
The same thing happens with all three of them
- Non-Standard Aspect Ratio
- macOS 26.1 (OK)
- No Output Session
- Third-Party Plugins (1)
Apple M4 Pro 12 Core - OK! / Apple Apple M4 Pro (not in benchmark DB)
definitely seems like some sort of system issue since the installer itself is failing, it is working fine on my end.
if you unzip that and place it in ~/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/plugins it should work hopefully @warm bear
thanks you it's working
Does anyone know how to install the plugin, please?
Well, don't post it here for sure.
why delete my message??
Don't upload zip files like that, better to link the download location (i.e. github)
why??
random zip files are not exactly safe if we don't know where they came from.
That ☝️
Just link the plugin's repo or resource page instead.
I got them from GitHub
How about the link from where you downloaded that plugin?
obs
et apres sa ma amene vers gihub
No, I am asking you to link the site, that's all. To confirm what you downloaded.
Why can't you just post the link rather than vague directions?
here
And if you click through to the GitHub page, they have installation instructions.
So no need for all this fuss here. 🤷♂️
is there a plugin or something so i can delete the recording before its even added to my files?
No
what's the usecase exactly?
you record a run
that run turns out to be bad
its annoying when you have to save then go to your files and delete the bad run
right so, you can't delete "before it's added to your files" because it's added to your files the moment you start the recording
What you could do is have a script that ties a given hotkey to stop a recording and delete it from the files instantly.
HOWEVER, what that means is that you now have a hotkey for "delete this recording", which means that if you press it by mistake for a good run, that run is flat gone.
If you do want to go that route, I'd advise you take the time to consider whether the slight annoyance of manual deletion isn't worth the safety of not having good stuff deleted by mistake
Besides the bad run video might be a good use case for a 'how not to do X' video for your channel. 😉
i thought of an x button next to the end recording button similiar to the one which saves the videos on your ram but instead it gets the video being recorded then delete it :P
yeah, that is not doable
script with hotkey is doable
but tbh the exact same warnings apply to having a button for it
Maybe something via ADV-SS?
could be done too, but functionally, kinda the same
adv-ss can't add a button, so it'll be hotkey too, and the same wrnings apply

tried it with \ and double // i just copy pase it from the image source but its not working for me
it's asking for a source name, not a file location
is that not the source 
the name of the source as it appear in OBS
ohhh 
follow the instructions in the link
yea mb i thought source is the "source as in where the image comes from" 
oh yeah ouki
I'm having issues with the Elgato Market Place Connect plugin. It's only showing the one scene collection I've selected and not the others.
!elgatosupport
you're not thz only one and it's seemingly an elgato-side issue
For help with Elgato products, please submit a ticket with them directly at https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. They also have a community Discord server.
Is there a plugin/tool to force play transition on all shown sources when the scene becomes active?
Not sure what happened. I left for a few hours came back to work the issue and it's working now.
Hi everyone.
I have a technical question regarding the OBS Replay Buffer.
Is there any way to record the Replay Buffer from two different scenes at the same time, saving each replay to a different folder?
Scenario:
Single OBS instance
Two different scenes (each with a different camera/source)
When triggering the replay, I need:
Scene A replay → Folder A
Scene B replay → Folder B
From what I understand, OBS only supports one global Replay Buffer per instance.
Is there any plugin, workaround, or advanced configuration that allows this within a single OBS instance?
Or is the only viable solution to run two OBS instances (portable mode / separate profiles)?
Any technical insight or real-world experience would be greatly appreciated
Source-Record plugin has the ability to do that.
i am using a 4kpro capture card in my pc how do i hear audio from it i see the xbox gameplay but no audio

Yo so I installed image reaction to the obs folder but its not showing
Hey, I'm on shaderfilter 2.5.1, and it doesn't seem to find previous_image.
Any clue? Thanks!
float4 mainImage(VertData v_in) : TARGET
{
float4 rgba;
if (true) {
rgba = image.Sample(textureSampler, v_in.uv);
} else {
rgba = previous_image.Sample(textureSampler, v_in.uv); // Also tried with prevous_image
}
return rgba;
}
as the error says, what is previous_image?
@silk schooner https://github.com/exeldro/obs-shaderfilter Are you running version 2.5.0 or higher?
Yes, I'm running 2.5.1
https://github.com/exeldro/obs-shaderfilter/blob/master/obs-shaderfilter.c#L619
Don't mind the doc that tells to use prevous_image (I still tried, doesn't work)
add uniform texture2d previous_image; at top
Perfect, thanks!

Hey,
I'm trying stuff with Shaderfilter, and with this lil shader
float4 mainImage(VertData v_in) : TARGET {
float2 pixel_pos = v_in.uv * uv_size;
float4 rgba = image.Sample(textureSampler, v_in.uv);
float y = 0.299 * rgba.r + 0.587 * rgba.g + 0.114 * rgba.b;
float u = (rgba.b - y) * 0.493;
float v = (rgba.r - y) * 0.877;
float rand = noise(rand_f);
rgba = float4(0.0, 0.0, rand, 1.0);
return rgba;
}
I'm using noise(x) to try and generate a perlin noise, but I get the error "cannot map expression to ps_4_0 instruction set".
Any idea?
Thanks!
Did ChatGPT suggest this? Or did you implement the noise method yourself? Or did you correctly copy it from a different example?
I went on Duckduckgo.com, typed "HLSL Perlin noise", and clicked on the above linked Microsoft Learn website 🙂
it's probably not a ps_4_0 shader, as the error message says 🤔
It's far beyond my knowledge 😭
mine too, just following the text on your screenshot
I would start with an example that is part of the obs-shaderfilter plugin
https://github.com/exeldro/obs-shaderfilter/blob/master/data/examples/perlin_noise.shader
Yeah, I ended up with a solution kinda like that.
Thanks!!
I can't pause after installing the Stream Elements plug-in. I tried removing it manually, but it didn't work. I don't know what to do.
To enable "Pause Recordings", do the following:
- In Settings -> Output, make sure "Recording quality" is not set to "Same as stream". If you are using advanced output, make sure that the encoder is not set to "(Use stream encoder)".
- If you want, set a Pause hotkey in Settings -> Hotkeys
- Start Recording. While recording, you should see a ⏸ icon next to the Stop Recording button.

Trying to contact @regal breach about issue #50 in media-playlist-source as they said this was the best place to contact them.
https://github.com/CodeYan01/media-playlist-source/issues/50
@solar dust & whoever else is interested in frame sharing on Linux, this is what I've been working on btw:
https://github.com/hoshinolina/obs-pwvideo
https://github.com/hoshinolina/libfunnel
The pwvideo source in particular has a bunch of refactoring of pipewire.c from OBS, and should fix a few bugs and add useful features. The API should still be mostly compatible with the portal usage from OBS, so maybe it makes sense to sync some of those changes upstream even if the non-portal plugin remains separate?
Obs overlay timer for Livestream so I can can pin the time so we know what minute I want to make a clip later
Is there any plugin like that?
Does anyone know a good app for using OBS websocket and controlling a stream remotely?
given your previous message, I assume over the internet, not over local network?
alternatively, something like Companion or Touchportal or a similar app
remotely over the internet you're gonna have to provide some additional infrastructure but it's not impossible
the setup for that is far more complex, but it can be setup using this :
https://github.com/IRLToolkit/obs-websocket-http
no additional equipment, additional software
Do I download all of the files on that list?
no, you download from the releases page
Where is the releases page?
Right-hand column
Got it
But I think that OBS websocket comes included as a part of OBS now
So which releases do I need to download to hook into it?
There's only one release you can use, the one that matches your pc's operating system.
Is this the control app of the app that adds on the OBS? I already have websocket on my computer, I just need something that connects to it
"A Python-based program that provides HTTP endpoints for obs-websocket"
Meaning, it adds functionality to the built-in websocket server.
From there, you can use third party remote control app as usual, but also over the internet.
Ok, so its like an upgrade to the existing software
Yes. This was mentioned, being the additional software.
Thank you
I'm looking at the companion app now for remote control, would you recommend it?
I mean, is it good?
Depends on what's good for you
There are several options. If you have your own compatible iOS or Android, I recommend Touch Portal, one I have used for many years.
In OBS, when I set it up for Twitch, I can't move the donation widgets or anything else
If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!
Do I have to use a phone to do the controlling, or is it possible for my laptop to control a computer in a different location?
I don't know what options are available for remote control via pc. The only ones I am aware of are for mobile devices, as they are designed for working on the local network.
It may be easier to simply use a remote desktop option and take control of the other pc from the laptop.
Windows has one built-in. Chrome Remote Desktop is web-based and works well too.
I NEED HELP
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!
is there a plugin that i can use so while i am recording a video and make a mistake, i can press a hotkey so i can add a marker or something that will show up in my editing software so that i can find that point in time fast?
don't need a plugin for that, record to hyvbrid mp4 and set the hotkey for "add chapter marker"
aha, great thanks.
i don't see any markers in premiere when i import the recording though
you're sure you set the recording format to "hybrid mp4"?
not "mp4" or "fragmented mp4", specifically hybrid
i've always been recording to hybrid mp4 since it came out.

@fossil wyvern when you get a sec. taking your advice from the other day, ive set up these three items as a test. I have adv-ss installed but im having difficulty looking for the exact functions.
refresher on what exactly you're trying to do with it?
oh right, the parsing the text file
yeah unsure adv-ss can really do that, might need a script
Any idea which?
so I don't have davinci I can't telly ou how to make them appear there, but I can attest that video does have markers, they show clearly in VLC.
I'm pretty ositive davinci can make the markers show, you'd have to ask their support for that
not one that exists already, custom made
Dang. Thanks, though
i don't use davinci and apparently it's a premiere thing
it can't see the markers from OBS, needs an extension
nw
alternatively, this can extract them to a txt file
https://revonzev.itch.io/video-chapters-extractor
ah sick. thx.
Actually, now that i think about it. I can regex with the URL/API Source plugin. Knowof any good regex parameters?
https://regex101.com/
but he difficulty is less regex, but comparison
and memorisation
Any chance you can test it without other plugins?

is there a tool that will auto bundle your OBS instance, assets ect into one folder, if anyone has used qlab they know what i mean. takes all the imags and files, not all sources persay since many are hardware, and moves them into one folder that obs now knows where they are. new computer for christmas and hoping to move my obs instance over, i know how to make it portable but that one transfer assets...
this allows you to create backups of scene collections that contain the assets
ooh, thanks!
should do pretty well i think, odds are ill end up making sweepign changes but just having "what has worked" already to go will be nice
even if it just gives me a folder with the current assets that's better than hunting them all down.... poor maintenance practices >.> 🙂
Can anyone please show me how or direct me to where I can find a scrolling recent events ticker that is only one line high? I am trying to make one for my Mario Kart World overlay.
is there any corner pin plugin or script that does not severely degrade the resolution of the source when enabled? i tried 2 so far and both reduce the source quality by a lot when enabled
there is afaik, no way to do that
by definition when you're doing a 3D effect, you're scaling stuff
never mind it was my own fault, i had a transform on a source, and the filter on the group, i had to reset transform of the source, then do everything with the pin plugin, that keeps it nice and sharp

Hello - I've been streaming for about a year. I got some nice videos made and collections. Now I've added a Facecam to the stream as well and created a nice scene and familiarized myself with that. I have been streaming to Twitch at 1980x1080 60FPS no problem on either output (the games or the facecam). Now I want to add multistreaming to the setup so I can live stream to YouTube and TikTok at the same time as my Twitch Livestream. I am using a dual monitor setup.
I also have access to Adobe Creative Cloud and very experienced with that if that helps with scene creation or using Premiere Pro and what not. Just want to see what the best plugin to use to add multistreaming if anyone has suggestions or questions.
For help with the Aitum OBS plugin or their tools and services, please join their community Discord server for direct troubleshooting.

Heyo! Does anyone here perhaps have an idea of what are some good beginner friendly resources for creating sources? (video)
What exactly are you trying to do?
I'm trying to fetch the output of my opengl renderer and put it into obs
a game capture source would be able to capture opengl
That's correct. However I'm building this application from the ground up so that I can render only a rather specific part of my application.
Without any ui elements overlapping. A game capture would get everything including user interface. Which I don't want.
Imagine two layers. And I only want to render the one that captures the "game" while not capturing the ui
While still seeing the ui on my own screen... does that make sense?
using windows? maybe look into using spout
using linux
I wonder if there's some simplistic virtual webcam driver for linux
If you mention "my opengl renderer", I assume you can add code to the rendering pipeline - it seems like a quick dirty solution to just feed frames to virtual webcam and get them on the other end (but I have windows in mind with this)
I absolutely can add code.

Looking for some basic virtual webcam would be one of my first choices. However the actual way I feed custom graphics into OBS right now is by creating dedicated windows
Relative to your situation, it would mean having one main window (full rendering) and one auxiliary window which just shows a copy of the buffer. Uses multi-window OpenGL context switching, can be somewhat annoying
You'd capture the second window instead of the first one (capture by window title or w/e)
I mean this sounds kinda like a dirty solution to me. Of course i also read about some possibilities myself and the one that seems to be the best overall is "shared memory" however since this seems to be quite the advanced topic. It currently is beyond me.
And trying to learn c++ with ogl, c with obs and then trying that is... oof
I have dug into OBS source code for assorted reasons, but it also included questions of capturing & outputting images from a plugin. It seemed like a lot of work, so I went with alternative simpler solutions instead
Lacking desire to dig in OBS internals, I often use virtual device drivers to bounce things around between applications - a more structured form of interprocess communication
Hello can someone help me pls? I have a problem and i dont know what to do

Oh, that works, too, and there is the Aitum link for ya.
Thank you @fossil wyvern @vagrant minnow @oblique yew this is very helpful!
I'm looking for help to see if this is possible or if anyone has any possible solutions.
What I want, is to set a Source to Pan left or Right based on my Mouse position.
Example, I have a Scene in Vertical where my Gameplay is Zoomed in to a reasonable amount for Viewers to watch more immersively.
But in a game like ARC Raiders, we may want to see the left or right of the screen that's currently cut off.
I don't want to make overlays or masks for those portions or have to manually think about toggling a Move Transition, but want something to automatically move the source left or right showing where my Mouse is hovering.
I attempted to utilize Zoom to Mouse, the script, but this only works with Display Capture, not Game Capture. As well requires Zooming as well as movement. I just want to pan left and right. (Oh and it also doesn't appear to work with Source Clones, as I use that for Move Transitions and Masks around my scenes)
Any suggestions? Is there a script we could have that moves the Source's X position based on Mouse Position? Or any other Plugin that could do this automatically?
Potentially with a Deadzone in the center that it doesn't move, and it only moves when I get past that point?
Thanks yall.
link me the zoom to mouse you're using?
Was trying this
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/zoom-to-mouse.1823/
There's a quick fix to it for newer OBS versions but still doesn't resolve it not working how I'm hoping and not working on Source Cone sources
that's not the case, this works with sources that aren't display capture
I haven't gotten it to do so though.
What am I messing up?
As I'm trying to do it within Aitum Vertical for a Vertical Scene (as I explained) to just pan the Source left and right.
The Source, is a Source clone of a Scene that has all of my Display items. Dispaly Capture or a Game Capture all in the same position.
oh vertical, yeah pretty sure won't work on vertical
That's the struggle I've been having.
The only way I could think of getting it to work, is have the Source Clone on a Main Canvas - and have this Clone also be on the Vertical Canvas, than have it Zoom and or Pan.
I got this working on a Display Capture, where it would show the zoom on both the Main Canvas and hte Vertical Canvas, but can't seem to get this to work with the Source Clone of a Scene.
As my Scenes all have a Source Clone of the "Displays" Scene which has all of my Game Capture or Display capture elements in there that I have a streamdeck to hide or show.
All I want now is to get it to pan left and right on that Source Clone, and then I can have that copied to Vertical
Is there a roadmap for Plugin Manager? I just spent 2 days vibecoding a tool to download/version/install plugins. I feel kinda stupid because a new plugin manager could make this work obsolete.
That is on our roadmap for the plugin manager, yes.
Is that something I can see, or when you say roadmap do you mean like institutional knowledge?
There isn't a public document anywhere for it, no, just what we've been working on.

its a bit... unusual... normaly i would say, i save my scenes, and do a clear reinstall but don't know if its really need
Use search for that plugin in both these directories, as it may be in a subdirectory
C:\Program Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit
C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins
This is not one of the locations I shared
this is only place on C:\ where a obs folder exist
btw i'm one of the users that find often new bugs that no one knows that they could even exist -.-
Right click the shortcut you use to open OBS, open Properties, then screenshot it
this or?
🤦♂️
You should be looking in the locations I shared EXCEPT on E: drive
There it is.
like i allready say there is nothing on C:\ with obs, only the folder i showed before
🤦♂️
right and your current OBS install isn't on the C drive anyway. You should be looking where you have OBS installed
Try these instead
E:\Program Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit
E:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins
yes, and there is nothing with the name obs-virtualouput....
Plugins have historically been installed in several different places, which makes things harder to uninstall. OBS devs have in recent times been cracking down on that, so they go to the same place
Did you do a windows search of the two locations I provided just above?
then maybee better reinstall if i find nothing with this name in the folders?
its not so much that i can't see it, hidden files off
No, just search first. Changing where OBS is installed maybe overkill and a pain in the rear
Nice!
now i have look why the intern virtual camera does not work anymore^^
but it looks this is not a OBS-problem xD
That stupid plugin intertwined itself with OBS. Do Help Menu > Check File Integrity to have it fix those parts
for me it looks more like a registry problem at the moment
Have you been doing stuff in the registry? Plugins and OBS shouldn't cause any problems in that
there is no OBS Cam in the Options when i look in the Programs
Where are you looking?
It's not a program
exp. discord cant find the obs Intern Virtual cam
Restart the PC and see if it works after that. Sometimes Discord needs that kick
yeah, remove the white and save it as a png
But all white going to remove
Hey there! I am kinda surprised that there is still no form of pixelgate/noisegate filter for video sources (not audio).
I would assume this would also come in handy with grain on camera footage, but I would love to use that on a capture of an analogue signal - as any "grain" is multiplied with av1 codec.
Saw this feature first on a custom software for a capture card I am using...and since then I am capturing the window of that capture software instead of via OBS, though that software does nothing but applying that gate at this point.
But as my entry on the suggestion board also attracted no response whatsoever, I am wondering if something like that already exists or there are differen workarounds.
Here was my previous post: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/filter-request-pixel-based-noise-gate-denoiser-noise-removal-flicker-remover.186294/
remove what you want to remove
I want to remove only the white parts around it. If I remove the white, everything will turn black, including the Instagram logo.
...... then, remove only the parts you want to remove
Also.. not really a plugin or tool is it.. it's more like a photoshop request
where is it?
how
lasso, magic wand, however you want to.
just grab an image editor and do it,it has nothing to do with obs
you could just grab copies of the logos with transparent backgrounds off google and add them individually in OBS, no editing needed anywhere that way
pretty easy to find
^ This is the way. I'm too impatient to edit these kinda things LOL
Editor functionality is not something that is currently in scope for OBS Studio development at this time. Our main development focus for OBS Studio right now is streaming and recording features.
We're happy to leave editing for other, more specialized software to handle. For a list of recommended post-production software, including video editors, see our list of Post Production Tools
Same.
I'm not sure if this is the right channel. Some folks were asking if I could add to my bot the ability to randomly "stamp" gifs/videos on their stream. I was thinking of using the websocket to spawn media sources in random placements. But I'm wondering if there's a best (or perhaps least worst) way to go about this for resources in OBS.
I'm wondering if two media sources pointed towards the same local file will load the file twice or if OBS caches them. I was perusing the source and it looks like there is a media-playback cache. But my very unscientific test of placing a few media sources pointed at the same file showed the memory use in the Stats dialog going up quite a bit per source. Which could be render-targets, it's unclear if memory use in Stats is CPU or GPU.
I'm also wondering if maybe I should pool them. Create a few stamp sources and simply move them. Only temporarily creating more if I need more active at once. I'm assuming I should pool at least one source, so that the media is actually loaded. Otherwise even with a media cache it would have to load the media from disk on the first stamp.
Probably also a cap on the max number of stamps active. Anywho, if anyone has insights to share on how to spawn multiple media sources causing the least strain. I'd love to hear them.
I'd expect that to just be a browser source.
just have a browser source that gets a trigger to show the thing.
Trying to do it with a media source will lead to frustration and unreliability.
Not sure if this is the best channel...
Is it possible to get the current sources in a scene from window.obsstudio as a browser source?
I had a question guys, can any plugins give me more preformance? it might sound like a silly question but i am trying to get as much fps as possible
okay ty
!s If you are having issues with performance, post about it in the support channel that matches your OS.

already have, someone very nice helped me
i just asked out of curiosity
d3d gear is also very effeceitn so i'm contemplating about buying it

For Advance Scene Switcher, does anyone know how to automatically scene switch to a window capture of my browser (brave) when I have it focused? My issue with scene switching via "If > Window > ..is focused" is that it requires the URL/window to match exactly. If I go to any sub-url then it will no longer match. I tried manually switching scenes (game capture and window capture of browser) yesterday and I'd often forget to switch back after alt-tabbing.
does the window title not have Brave in it?
mine ends in Google Chrome
so you could match on "Google Chrome""Brave" and enable regexp matching
@pulsar field this works for me
not sure if im in the right place but im sure someone will tell me.
Is there a plugin im assuming thats how its done to remove the print head so u dont see it when running the video back so u just see the print from start to finish without the printer head in the way.
what do you mean exactly by "the print head"?
in my case the stealthburner
that doesn't really answer my question
print head as in thw whole printer head nozzle and all
what context?
just so u see the model growing up off the bed
... take 5 seconds, reel back, give me the full context of what you are actually doing
Not everyone knows you are using a 3d printer
lemme try to guess, you're trying to do a timelapse of your printing but don't want the printer hear to show in the timelapse?
close enough yes
control your print so that after each layer, the head gets out of the way, and take the pics to turn into a timelapse at that moment
don't record it into a video
oh right and then join all the pics together at the end
and then turn that into a video
yup, taking pics and encoding them together is usually a far better way to do a timelapse than filming and speeding it up
I know systems like OctoPi/OctoPrint will manage all of that, and alter the gcode to add in those pauses between layers
way less wasteful and way more controlled
ok thanks i thought it was done with some sort of plug in but yea will try that thanks
Ah https://github.com/obsproject/obs-browser/pull/500 would be that, would love to see this landed as it'd unlock quite a bit for us without needing to use a websocket
Trying to stream on Twitch and YT using Aitum Vertical, but this keeps popping up when I try starting multi-stream.
Make sure you are only trying to stream from the main OBS settings and not vertical canvas
Hello, does anyone here know anything about obs-multi-rtmp? specify the sorayuki version.
^ I got 'em in windows support
i have a question about my streaming on obs it is very laggy and will just freeze and make it load how cna i fix it?
Head over to the support channel for your OS
Can anyone please tell me how to capture a window using a key in ajazz akp153?
anyone else has problems starting streamer.bot right now?
I'd suggest asking the streamer.bot crew 🙂
Guys what is the best plugin to multistream on twitch and youtube cause im having trouble with multi-rtmp plugin when im trying to stream on youtube with it it keeps crashing and shows 0 btps while twitch stream is fine, so are there alternatives?
there's been a fair few issues with youtube streams today, so might not be the plugin
that being said, there are mainly two alternatives, one by aitum, which is pretty good, roughly the same but with slightly simpler UI and integration with their vertical-canvas plugin, and another by Streamelements which is generally speaking bad and highly issues-prone
i had the same issue on december 29 tho
oh, thanks imma try that
connection issues can crop up and are very unlikely to be caused by the plugin itself
but twitch stream is fine so its whether youtube or plugin
the likelihood of being a connection issue specifically between you and youtube is much bigger than it being the plugin
and I'm not saying you shouldn't test other plugins
just, don't expect it to change much in that regard
alright
Can anyone please tell me how to capture a window using a key in ajazz akp153?
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.
who have Twitch Tools and OBS Tools BarRaider ?
Are you using some aliexpress streamdeck knockoff?
This is an analogue from another company - the operating principle is the same.
So knockoff streamdeck from aliexpress
I'm not sure why that's relevant
Because the support for it is likely far more limited
A counterfeit is when it says "Streamdeck" but it's not. It's just a button panel from a different company. 
BarRaider's plugins work on all panels. But for some reason, I couldn't click the Discord button on his website.
Found what I wanted
'.')b
Found a small bug with the Move plugin and Advanced Masks plugin
The settings show the Corner Radius further down
But because there's no title for that slider...
The move value setting shows as an empty string 
cc @serene echo want me to open a Github issue to better track this?
On another note - can I not have a Color Correction setting, specifically the Opacity one, go smoothly from one value to the other via. the Duration when using the Move Action?
I've got 2 main filters that do a simultaneous call to the underlying ones, and one of them is this to fade out my model, but it's just doing a hard cut
Hmm nope, also not doing it smoothly with the latest (3.2.0)...
Oh it seems I gotta use Move Value instead, but I can only have that on the source itself apparently, not have a scene selection

hello can anyone help me install the bongobs cat plugin to obs please
iirc that plugin hasn't been updated in years and won't work anymore
oh ok thank you for the information
yeah, it's not compatible with modern obs
Hey guys, happy new year. Kind of a long shot, maybe not even the right place to ask, but does anyone use baffler's Transparent Twitch Chat Overlay?
It's a recommended program for what it exactly does but what's the issue?
nvm, turns out it was a me-problem, thanks for your time
Hello! I am having trouble with the obs plug in source record, it is recording the same scene twice. My friend tried to help me but we couldn't figure it out. Does anyone know how to troubleshoot or any ideas? Thanks!
- Old Version (32.0.1)
- Non-Standard Aspect Ratio
- Capture Interference
- Windows 11 24H2 (OK)
- Not Admin
- Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduler
- Third-Party Plugins (2)
Intel Core i5-12400F - OK! / GeForce RTX 3050 6GB - OK!
Add a word to the end of the File ame Formatting field for the source record filter settings. Looks like it is using the same filename in the same folder as the main recording.
I was adding a -1 that my friend was using but I checked up obs updates and it will not let me update and the error seams to be a server issue but I will try to change the name as well!
what happened to the logo
Hello. I have a problem with the output of the broadcast on YouTube, he writes this: It was not possible to connect to the server. The server name was not found. Make sure that you have entered a valid broadcast server and that your internet connection/DNS is working correctly.
@carmine viper @pulsar mica Hey! I just wanted to report bacl, that I in fact went ahead and go my custom plugin working (atleast surface level working). It now currently directly reads the shared memory fbo that is being written by my app.
@fossil wyvern so i assume that in my macro i would want it to be "if scene, current scene is scene 2" then hotkey to make the scene back to scene one if im in scene two...?
no, you'd want
If scene is scene X
And Hotkey pressed
then
Switch to scene Y
and a second one for the opposite
and once that's done, unbind the key from the switch scene, and bind it to the adv-ss hotkey instead
should i switch my base obs settings so it stops switching the scenes manually?
yup
to be clear, the hotkey condition in adv-ss only creates the hotkey, you still have to go and bind it in obs settings > hotkeys
This is really cool. Great job! How did you set it up, copying data to a buffer or (seems based on your words) the FBO points to the buffer that is in shared memory for both processes? Do you see any tearing/how does it work with different FPS?
OHHHHH so im setting the hotkey to do what i want in advanced scene switcher, but im not setting the hotkey. just what i want it to do when i press it
Also this kind of work would probably be super useful if it was published as an example in OBS community (or even as a standalone plugin)
yeee
I think I'd really like to feed my custom graphics into OBS more directly and not via capturing extra windows
exactly
how would i make the
'then' ?
the then is just the separation between the top row and the bottom one.
Top row are consitions, bottom are actions that are done when the conditions are met
ohhhhh
So the opengl app writes the rendered data to a framebuffer. this framebuffer is for the app being rendered onto a fullscreen quad. else you wouldn't see anything in the app. Then it also writes this same framebuffer to shared memory and on the obs-plugin side I read from it at a set interval since I probably don't need however many fps my pc can handle to render.
Yeah, I see!
Hmm I don't think I feel very comfortable with this xD As I have no clue if any of what I'm doing is considered good practice. I literally learned about all of this just for this.
if I'm reading this you're basically doing the equivalent of spout, but not on windows?
setting this up makes my brain feel like im expanding. i think im good now but ill ping if ive messed this up
That's reasonable, haha
imma be real, adv-ss can do everything, including the coffee
(probably not the coffee)
(but I wouldn't be so sure)
that's pretty cool, and I would encourage you to share it
fuck "best practices" spaghetti is better than nothing
So even though there is a warning icon it's still fine?
Because those only happen when I'm in a certain scene?
yeah, but also, technically, you could be using the same hotkey in both
liek, this works, no issue
but you could also just set both macro to use the same hotkey in adv-ss
how would i do that, i feel like i would want to set it up like that so its more efficient
in the hotkey condition, just set both to the same name
i just dont see how to set that up
the name defines the hotkey
oh so its like a <-> type of thing
yee
these are pretty much the 3 main files :o the renderer has alot of extra stuff which may... or may not be relevant... I'm not entirely sure .-.
holy TAS
don't hunt me for it pls q-q

actually, now that I think of it, @pulsar mica aren't you running obs on windows?
I am running it on windows, but it doesn't scare me
windows does in fact... scare me
right, but then you don't need aye's stuff to send your graphics directly to obs because there's an already existing protocol for that on windows, with spout2
the protocol : https://github.com/leadedge/Spout2
and the plugin to access it in OBS : https://github.com/Off-World-Live/obs-spout2-plugin
hey im sorry, what am i doing wrong here?
hmmmm?
Ahh fun, I'll check it out
like, hotkeys that you previously created persist in that list even after you changed the name to smth else?
Like the fact it's making multiple hotkeys with the same name
yee?
if they do persist, in adv-ss select all the macros (shift click them in the list) then right click > export and gimme the text it gives you
Ah yes. The Screenrecording :P
oh you have done what we call in technical terms "a teehee haha" and created a loop, I think
like it keeps switching without you doing anything?
yeah
yee do what I said above about exporting macros so I can have a look at them
i did not see where you did that, can you reply to it
in adv-ss select all the macros (shift click them in the list) then right click > export and gimme the text it gives you
the random works well

basically, plain text allows you to read it, but with the non-plain I can just directly import them on my obs to see them
yeah i assumed so
on those two you used "Or", not "And"
with or, you just need to satisfy one condition for the scene swap to happen, so it happens even if you don't press the hotkey
fixed yeah
and keeps swapping
thank you
pleasure 
this bug
I was like I cannot explain this in text lmao
yeah I think there was a hiccup with hotkeys registration
my twitch chat will thank you lmao

how do i get it to show in obs
Install the plugin, then follow the wiki instructions (link above) for using it.
did you run the installer, and restart obs after
its confusing
1 : download the installer
2 : run the installer
3 : restart obs
is there any issue with those steps
if i stream at home, what light would yall recommend to use
Best to ask this in #stream-setup , friend. I'd recommend watching a video or two on 3-point lighting, you can get some decent lighting on a budget if you're creative and scrappy
i did the step and it doesnt show in obs
@wide kraken hey sorry for the direct ping, but any chance that you update the "Encoder Region of Interest Editor" Plugin to OBS 32.x?
Might be better to ask on the forum where the plugin is 🙂
yeah but there dont seem to be an answer so i try to use this way

hello! i have a very specific question but im hoping someone might be able to help
so i have the move plug in installed to transition between sources based on audio from my mic. is it possible to set up a hotkey that when pressed makes both sources not visible?
so far the audio feedback overrides everything and i cant even turn on/off the viewer for the selected sources
I always see this plug in. What is this
that's just a video
Hey everyone 👋
I’ve been experimenting with some multi timeline-based editor workflows inside OBS lately 😊 mostly exploring how time-based playback could work live.
Still early and very experimental, but excited to learn and hear ideas from the community.
@lean stratus I think every app has its own finite scope, and it should stay within it. Obs-studio already does a lot of things best left to other apps (browser docks, remuxing, maybe audio monitoring as well), making an operating system out of obs-studio is not necessary, you're already running one.
That’s a fair point 😊, and I agree that keeping scopes clear matters.
What I’m exploring isn’t about turning OBS into a replacement for editors or other tools, but about experimenting with how time-based structure could exist inside an already live system.
Everything still runs live through OBS no exporting, no pre-rendering, no attempt to be a full editor. Just exploring whether planning and playback over time can reduce stress during live production.
I enjoy filming and editing beforehand, and I love exploring compositing and storytelling
Just to add some visual context — here’s a screenshot of the experiment I was referring to.
It’s still very early and rough, but it helped me think through time-based structure inside a live OBS setup.
@lean stratus obs-studio's biggest selling point is high performance realtime scene composition, prior to the creation of obs-classic in 2012 it was not something you could run on consumer-grade PCs. There might be something to what you're doing, most video editing software would incur some additional quality loss as part of exporting, and obs-studio's filters can have their properties changed at runtime, plus plugins can add their own filters.
can anyone pls explain how i install a keyboard overlay cause i have a tutorial but he says something like go back under presets and i just dont understad how
That makes sense realtime composition and performance are exactly what really drew me to explore this inside OBS. Its amazing for it im just leaning into OBS’s strengths like live compositing and runtime filter control. 🙂 absolutely love it having fun with it exploring it ❤️ obs is capable of alot
Oh ok got it
@regal breach Hello,
I’m currently using the Media Playlist Source plugin in OBS and honestly it's very comfortable to use.
However, I’m occasionally experiencing a problem where the audio output is duplicated during streaming, even though audio monitoring is set to off. I wanted to ask whether this is a known issue or if it has already been addressed.
If you need any additional information from my side, please let me know. Thank you in advance for your time and any guidance you can provide.
I'd actually recommend you hit #audio-support on this server, see if they can help you lock down the duplicated audio. Either they find its unrelated and you fix it, or you wind up with proof-positive logs that the plugin has a bug and can hand that to the developer, or post that log as an issue on their github.
is there a plugin that would essentially animate variables of a video filter for use as a transition?
the move plugin can do that I think?
For sure it can, the move-value feature. I use it to animate all sorts of filters
You dirty filter abuser you

Hey, shader-filters exist to serve me, not the other way around.
My GPU knows its place!
Ok i got a move value set up in the scene i want to transition to, is there a way to make the filter BE the transition
Without adding the filter to every other scene
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/streamup-scene-as-transition.1704/
This maybe for the final leg?
Ugh, ill try it in a bit 😂
oh man, this is gonna be a nice menu dive 💀 \
Hey, I came across the same exact same issue.
Did you resolve it?
Is there an option to adjust hue/saturation via a filter on a stinger transition?
you cannot add filters to stinger transitions
Thanks for confirming 🙂
Any folks floating around that are suited to bounty work? I’d like to get websocket support added to the ptz plugin and I am not really suited to contribute it myself directly 🙁
I am more suited to add ptz controls to obs blade myself if the websocket support were already in place 🙂
whenever i start capture on my plugin helios it starts flickering
i need help
and keeps stuttering
Hey, I've tried to make myself a plugin (I just cloned obs-plugintemplate, and built it).
I built it successfully, from glorpify\build\RelWithDebInfo (accordingly to this wiki (I've also tried to use accordingly to the obs-plugintemplate guide)), but my plugin doesn't show up in the list of plugin.
Is there a missing step / what have I done wrong?
Thanks!
look at the other plugins in that folder for the correct folder structure, just putting the dll there wo'nt work
I had tried to follow the structure with copying the data from the plugintemplate and making a bin and what not, but no luck.
I'll try again though
Ok I'm very silly, it works.
Thanks! 😅
does anyone here use the gform plugin ? Mine stopped working and im not sure whats going on
Hi, is there any information on whether there is a plugin that would show multiple browser sources in one source that could be easily switched? This would be interesting because if you wanted to have watch parties and follow many different channels, this could help with that.

@everyone, Can I Make a Windows App active based on noise level ? I have Advanced Scene Switcher but can't figure out how to do it using it.
Not a scene but a windows app that is running in the back ground.
If the window app's audio is being captured to a source in OBS, I believe ADV-SS can do it.
Plugins obs tiktok?
What exactly are you asking? A complete sentence would help.
Is there a plugin or how can I stream from OBS to TikTok?
Is your Tiktok account big enough to have unlocked the stream key feature?
I have 900 followers on my account.
Has TikTok given you a stream key?
I’m not sure how to do that.
You don't do anything. They literally contact you when you become qualified based on the TikTok standards.
Otherwise, use Restream.io or send the virtual cam output from OBS to the TikTok Studio app
Does anyone know if there exists a plugin to chart out a CPU % graph over a recording?
I'm doing some x264 preset testing and it would make the logging process of parameter changes much easier over time.
@obsidian saddle Unless x264 is the only app running on the system (it's not), CPU usage percentage is not useful in this manner. CPU usage is not "CPU was 50% busy", CPU usage is "CPU was 100% busy 50% of the time". Any other apps you have running will be affected by this. But to answer the actual question, most task manager alternatives can graph CPU usage, you can window capture them.
Yeah that seems to be the most reasonable method if I want a graph..
Theres no reliable way to capture encoder hitching either, as both the skipped frames and missed frames metrics don't cover that, so manual observation of the recording for system CPU load is the way forward
Thanks for the input
Hi, can someone please help me? I’m really confused. It was working and now it’s still not working. I downloaded stream elements and connected to OBS and then logged into my account with YouTube. It was working. I could go live but now I can’t go live in this message keeps coming
up
I’m not sure what it means, but it won’t let me go live. Can someone please help me if possible? Thanks.
You'll want to grab a log after you get that error, and post it in #windows-support
But I'd recommend removing the SE plugin to see if that resolves the issue. If it only happens with that plugin installed, you'll need to contact them for support with their services.

Is there a way with Advanced Scene Switcher to automatically switch scenes when i switch windows without me pressing any hotkeys?
For example if on my screen Discord is open OBS is showing a "Discord Scene" and then when i switch to my browser obs then moves to the "Browser Scene"
Yes. I use it like that. One sec I will grab a screenshot
I have two macros, one for the game and one for the browser
okay ill try that and see if it works for me
Advss is super cool like this
Im not sure if I'm doing it right, the scene doesnt switch for me
Is the Discord source higher in the Sources dock than your game source?
Its the only source in the Discord Scene, do I need to use just one scene?
plugin for multistream ?

Hello everyone. I am wondering if there is anyone that would be willing to live meet with me over zoom or something to help me with the setup of OBS and Whatnot. I have gotten to my wits end with it all not working. Any takers? I would be willing to throw a few bucks at you.
