@untold jayI don't understand anything. Is it possible to edit videos in OBS? If so, how?
@round hollow No.
why
OBS is not a video editor.
Isn't editing possible?
No, OBS is not a video editor, and never has been.
If you need to edit videos, check the list of video editors that was linked.
just sign?
where
!editors
For a list of recommended post-production software, including video editors, see our list of Post Production Tools
Here.
Which one is best for video editing?
@fossil wyvern it aint in there
There isn't a single best one, it depends on what you're trying to do.
If you want a recommendation, try Resolve
@fossil wyvern I got it
ohh was waiting on the log
oh sorry lol
@hard jayI will add photos to the video, what is the best quality that does not spoil the video quality?
Try Resolve and watch some tutorials on how it works.
So should I just get the aitum multistream and vertical plugins?
My goal is to multistream and some of the platforms include vertical formats (YT & TikTok)
it just depends on if you want all of the extra bells and whistles or if you just want the Multistream and Vertical plugins
though from the looks of the installer, you can choose to not install all the extra stuff and the new theme.
Bells and whistles like what?
Keep in mind I’m brand new to OBS. Haven’t even stream yet using it. Still trying to set everything up.
all these extra plugins and the theme
being new to OBS, i would honestly suggest starting small and learning the ins and out of the app before diving into too many plugins and UI adjustments.
Are there any plugins for steamdeck i would need for if my properties menu for adding a device isnt showing the dropdown menu
The folks in the #linux-support channel asked for a log to help. You should do that over there.
Its not the recording thats a issue tho do i still need too?
Yes. It's not just about recordings, it shows everything, system info, plugins, settings, distro, etc
👍
Yeah I think you’re right about that. I think the only plugins I’ll need after the multistream & vertical ones, would be something to give me alerts or an onscreen events list, for donos, subs, bits/kicks, super chats… stuff like that.
fon't need a plugin for that
those are browser sources that you can get directly from Twitch, from third parties like StreamLabs and StreamElements, or by writing them yourself if you know HTML/JavaScript/CSS web dev techs
Hey am I able to dm you or is there a support ticket I can use ?
if it's for support with obs, all official support is done here or in the forums, in public
Okay that’s fine. I just wanted to know like is there any rules or guidelines I can go look at to comply with the licensing laws for releasing script for OBS users. Like you have OBS documentation etc is there any specifically on what to do after you have completed your project
if you want to be sure there's no license issue, put your script under a license that's GPLv2-compatible. Since OBS itself is GPLv2, that ensure compatibility with obs licensing no matter what you do.
Depending on what you do, it is possible that your script isn't bound by obs' own license and that you could make it proprietary or smth, but if you want to be sure of that, ask an IP lawyer, I am no such thing.
The OBS name and logo are registered so you shouldn't use them as part of your script.
Yes okay thanks for the response and no OBS logo or name isn’t in it.
I finaly fixed my issue with the dropdown menu but i reset my obs so i need to reinstal my plugin for captureing application audio on my steamdeck
Whats that plugin called again that gives u the beta application audio source on steamdeck
There isn't a plugin for that .
You need to be on a specific Windows version and higher.
Thx
Thats not workin for me i put it in the plugins folder and its not showing up but i do see this wave form visualizer
Idk what thats for but that wasent there last time
You need to look at the documentation how to make it work with Flatpaks i think. Sorry, but not knowleadgable enough to make it work for you.
Okay found a step i missed
But when i do im stuck cause my konsol isnt allowing me to run the command
I don't know. Maybe with sudo?
Hm alright ill try that thanks for u help even if u dont know what ur doin i still appritiate any solutuon
Haven't really messed with application audio cause i don't personally need it.
Just seen folks use it here.
Don't think so.
darn.. i had a realy good one but ever since i reset my obs its gone
I think that you might have better luck in linux-support channel.
i found a yt vid
my plugins are just not working
i put them in data/obs-plugins
and also obs-plugins
neither work
That has nothing to do with any updates. You run obs in a flatpak "Sandbox". The plugin needs special permission to "see outside" of it.
How do i give it the permission?
hey just wondering if anyone has had any trouble with multi streaming using the stream elements multistream plug in? i tried to multi stream on twitch and tiktok with this plug in and my obs is instantly crashing after i signed in to tiktok. after obs has crashed i exit obs and reopen it in the "safe mode" and go to tools, plug in manager a deslect obs-streamelements-core... does anyone know how to fix this or what to use instead of stream elements to multistream on twitch and tiktok? any tips or feedback is greatly appreciated

Sorry for saying this in the forum so badly timed at night est* but does anyone know how i can send my stream over to tiktok?
Did Tiktok reward you with a stream key?
How can I get my stream key I have over 1400 followers and I am unable to get my stream key
Usually you get the stream key in your account dashboard. Which stream service?
TikTok rewards you with the key, when they think you have met some standard only they seem to know.
Contact TikTok
with the VLC video source i have a play list but is there a way to pick which file you want to play without hitting next 100 times to get to the one you want?
Im not sure if this is where to ask but long story short is I have a rodecaster pro 2 and I have installed asio and obs asio plug in. I am trying to set up the google to an asio input capture because the google will be my music. So my question is does anyone know the obs channel that I should use example Pro II main multitrack 1-20? Ive used 9 for my sound pads and I used 3 for my Mic I just dont know what to use for the google music
So, fwiw, I've used an RCP2 since it launched with OBS and I don't bother with ASIO to OBS as it's just easier (and delivered better results for me) to make the RCP2 the last word in my audio chain and OBS just gets ONE audio input - the RCP2's main device - so OBS doesn't have to worry about it. The mixer does the mixing. 🙂
If you're on Windows or Mac, it's pretty straightforward to use the "virtual device drivers" that will give you several more channels on top of what you get out of the box. (I've done this on CashyOS too but that takes a lot more legwork first and some comfrot with pipewire configuration files.)
Doing that, the pads have their own channel, effectively; and the mics and other inputs can get sorted out to the virtual devices. (I put one browser on Chat for collab sessions, one browser on System or Music if it's doing my bg music, A and B are used for Streamer.bot and StreamDeck at need, you have a lot of options.)
ASIO plugin on OBS does work okay, I have done it, but it's additional headache and didn't gain me anything, hence my existing and now long-lived solution here.
I am guessing I need to learn about the virtual one but I just didnt like the stereo sound of it but I will look into that
"stereo sound"? All of that is configurable and adjustable on the Rodecaster; Rode has their own Discord and subreddits you can get assistance with that stuff. 🙂 Audio engineering is outside of the scope here.
I wonder if they mean stereo sound as opposed to spatial audio?
DistroAV ( NDI in OBS plugin) 6.2.0 released 😄 - I'm not having the option to update it anymore in the OBS Forum (seraching why)
that would mean they have not updated their resource listing with it.
Look for their Github page instead.
@carmine viper I am the one behind the distroav account and could not find where to update it 😄
Yep, jsut did, logged out and back in but not enabled yet maybe in couple hours 🙂
yeah if you just did just check back a little bit later, takes a few.
We require that it remain enabled for a short time, yes.
No problem 🙂 it's slowly rolling to all the distribution channel as well.
any important updates?
Dozens ^^ almost a year full of update
Good morning!
Ok so I downloaded the aitum multistream & vertical plugins but I’m confused how to set all the different outputs. With streamlabs I sign into each platform to link them. I don’t see that option with OBS.
Keep in mind, I’m brand new to OBS.
Those options are within the plug-ins settings themselves, usually accessible from their respective dock windows
!aitum they also have their own dedicated support discord
For help with the Aitum OBS plugin or their tools and services, please join their community Discord server for direct troubleshooting.
Thank you! I just joined their discord.
I can no longer connect my stream deck (ver. 7.4.1 22720) with obs (ver 32.1.1). The plugin is no longer available in instruments. By the way, I can't even download or install it. With the previous version of OBS, it worked perfectly. Thank you
Plugin is called Input Overlay
Click on this and grab the updated one from Elgato
Already done, from the marketplace I disabled and reinstalled all the plugins
Check out the guide from Elgato on how to connect to the websocket. The plugin is from Elgato. They can provide support for it.
do you happen to be running OBS in Portable Mode?
no
they probably are not talking about the Integrations, but rather then actual StreamDeck plugin for OBS that is needed for the Deck to communicate with OBS at all. It doesnt do it via straight WebSockets
I know there was a point at which this was needed for the non-Portable version of OBS as well
I tried following this guide, but I can't find anything in ProgramData. It's as if the Stream Deck plugin in OBS isn't present at all. This whole problem occurred after updating OBS to the latest version, 32.1.1.
- Capture Interference
- Windows 11 25H2 (OK)
- No Output Session
- Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduler
- Third-Party Plugins (1)
sorry stupid question, how do i find to update this?
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.
ok sorry
!ser though the best course of actin is probably just to remove it.
To cleanly remove SE.Live:
- Close any instances of OBS
- Uninstall SE.Live (Add/Remove Programs)
- Uninstall OBS Studio (make sure that "Settings, Scenes, etc." is not selected)
- Install OBS Studio again from https://obsproject.com/
Your settings will be saved unless you have selected to delete them during removal.
Just curious... I know in an update a while back, they made OBS automatically disable any plugins that weren't for the right version of OBS. Is this still the case?
I'd like to update eventually, but that is kind of a deal breaker for me 🫠
I'm kind of skimming through the update notes but I'm not sure if I can find it
If your plugins are so old they don't support versions of OBS past v27, you should look in to updating or replacing them.
But we typically don't arbitrarily disable plugins unless there is a good reason to.
Nah, the one that was getting disabled was for v29.
I distinctly remember there being an OBS update that stated it would disable all plugins that aren't made for v32, I think, but I'm wondering if maybe people made a stink about it and that got changed.
At least I'm assuming it's v32, since I'm on v31
Maybe I'll try a portable version
We implemented a change that prevents plugins built against newer versions of OBS from loading on older versions.
So if the plugin was built for, say, v33 (which isn't out yet) it won't load on v32.
But yes, portable mode is a good option for testing if you're worried.
Always make backups of your scene collection and profile as well.
Yeah... I, as well as most of my friends, have had many a day ruined after an OBS update breaks everything LOL
A hard lesson to learn, but one that sticks with you for sure
We're pretty careful with updates, I find it very unlikely it was changes we made that would cause everything to break.
Plugins are not as careful as us.
But if there are any issues on updates, we can't fix if we don't hear about them, so make sure you stop by the support channels if you do have any issues.
How can I stream on multple platforms?
A third party plug-in for streaming to multiple endpoints is available for OBS Studio.

[obs-zoom-to-mouse.lua] Failed to call script_update for obs_lua_script_update: [string "C:/Program Files/obs-studio/data/obs-plugins/..."]:435: attempt to call field 'obs_sceneitem_get_info' (a nil value)
Is this variable name updated? I'm currently trying to fix the lua file myself
perfect, thanks
whats yalls favourite chat bot? im thinking about which one i should use
I prefer StreamerBot myself because of how robust it is, and it runs locally
Seconded. And their documentation is pretty good, and their support Discord is pretty good too.
AND they have a "StreamDeck" style web interface that you can use remotely on a phone, tablet or other pc
Exeldro's Source Profiler seems to crash OBS. I've use other Exeldro plugins without issue so not sure what's going on with this one. I got the info I needed from it no problem and disabled it now but yeah.
That one's still experimental, no? v0.0.9 is pre release, I'd expect some instability
Doesn't say if it's experimental but it is v0.0.9 I used yeah
Version number schemas are typically major.minor.patch
If it's patch 9 of version 0, that's typically how folks say 'prerelease' 😊 So yeah, not weird to me it crashed.
Still worth filing an issue if you can reproduce it
I couldn't. Maybe just a 3 streak occurance. I did also delete a scene collection I wasn't using and OBS crashed right then. It didn't like me deleting that so that may also have done it.
Not a scene collection a actual set of scenes with the sources
Then my selected IP address was expired
the plugin has been unmaintained for years
What is the best open source plugin for finding and notching out noise in an audio input?
is there a way to force mac os to let OBS record HDCP video like from TV.app?
can I ask questions about microphones here? I don't know where else to search.
The best solution I have is to go out to HDMI from the first device, then use a device that happens to strip HDCP, then back into HDMI capture in the second device. This isn't really a plugin though. The last device I bought for this is https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F5R9TNM It says "WILL NOT STRIP OR BYPASS HDCP – Fully compatible with any HDMI 1.4/1.3/1.2 version, supporting HDCP 1.4 (NOTE: Will Not BYPASS HDCP)" Maybe they have a new revision on the same Amazon listing, because the unit I got most definitately does strip HDCP. I don't know of any such device that is HDMI 2.0 or 2.1 compatible, but personally I am only interested in 1080p60 anyway.
HDMI DUPLICATOR 1 x 2 – Duplicates Mirror Displays to 2 TVs, NOT for laptops or PCs to extend multiple monitors. ONLY splits one HDMI input signal into two identical HDMI output signals. Supported resolutions include up to 4K/30 Hz, 1080p, 720p, and VGA to WUXGA. The device also comes with a dual...
What I am doing is connecting a Magewell's USB capture device to the HDMI port on my Mac Studio M4. Mac OS instantly recognizes the capture device as a display. I can see the screen in OBS. I can hit record, and OBS records whatever is on the screen, but when I play anything in TV.app, the video goes black. If I disable OBS in Privacy & Security -> Screen & System Audio Recording, I can record the TV.app video, but the audio stops working. I have tried a couple of different HDMI splitters, but doesn't work.
sounds like DRM or HDCP in the tv.app blocking you from capturing it, which we can't help you fix/avoid
why are you recording the tv app 🏴☠️
I have an Apple TV subscription. There's some content I'd let my kids watch, like Frog and Toad, etc. It appears whoever is currently running Apple is some sort of deviant groomer, allowing pornographic imagery on the home screen and previews. I don't want my children to see it. I figure since I pay for the content can just record the kids' shows and place them on my Plex, then I am in complete control of what is seen. I don't see how that would be any differnt that ripping a DVD, which we have been doing for 25 years.
Check the Apple TV terms. Most services are giving you the right to view the content, not record the content. There may be DVR features available within the Apple TV service.
Ok thanks. I'll read through that now and then go back to building a sandbox.
Hello and I hope your day is going well! My multiple output plugin isn't working, Is it possible someone could help me please?
What isn't working?
I'm trying to run my Youtube Output but lately everytime I've tried to start it it has been saying this. I've already tried refreshing the link, is there anything else I can do?
Are you setting up the stream on the YT Studio webpage? That needs to be done before starting a stream.
I tried to do that in the past
Let me try that now
I opened and copied the URL into the plug in and it's doing the same thing
I'm gonna try refreshing the stream key
uh what
I have apple tv and unfortunately my home screen shows no pornography
To make things easier, you should use YT as your connected account in OBS Settings > Stream, then add the other platforms you want to stream to in the multiple outputs plugin.
Maybe that's the extra premium subscription LOL
basically I'm asking what I'm doing wrong
In OBS Settings > Stream, choose YouTube for the top dropdown and then click Connect Account. Then in the Multiple Output Plugin delete the Youtube one and set the other streaming site up.
Then in OBS you can always have chat using the correct URL and you can Manage Broadcast in OBS too.
Thank you I'll try that know
The streaming site you want me set up in the multiple output is twitch right?
Yes, if that is the other site you want to stream on haha
Will my stream info on OBS still automatically update the info on twitch if I do that? (Title, and description)
No you will need to add the dock for stream info and chat to OBS in the Docks menu > Custom Browser Docks
I already have that done
Great!
Like this?
If I change my service to Youtube would I have to make new ones for twitch?
Yes!
Yes
The ones currently showing are added by connecting the Twitch account. They won't be there after you connect the YT account
I don't want to have to do that though and I already deleted the multiple output for Youtube
Welp time to make another YouTube output!
Also is there a way I can those atuomatically update YouTube info as well?
No those only work on Twitch.
Ok good to know thank you
Well everything is working now!
Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day!
You're welcome! You have a good one too!
Can someone help me? Is there any way I can use someone else's OBS? To put some texts on the screen or chance scenes on his OBS?
The person streaming would need to give you access to their computer as OBS runs "locally". You can connect via web socket or via some direct connection application.
does anyone use vst plugins and actually sound decent? if so can anyone help me give me the best sets :) (i have shure mv7+)
!voice
What vst plugins you use and with specific settings all depend on your voice and your goals.
This guide can help you get started with using audio filters.
A basic guide to improve your microphone quality can be found here: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/514/
thanksss can i ask for help from u if im not getting the sound im going for?
You can ask in #audio-support for specific issues. People will respond if they are available.
Tuning audio takes time and practice. Don't try to do too much with filters, they only affect what is already there. Filters don't magically or automatically make your voice sound a certain way.
Is there a way to see which plugins are actually in-use, at a glance? I'd like to clean up what I have installed, but I can't tell which ones I'm actually using.
-# I know I can toggle them on and off in the Plugin Manager, but do I just do that one by one until something crashes? lol
Closest would be via the log.
Here it lists both stock and 3rd party plugins but usually above and below this will list anything that was loaded/not loaded.
Ahhh, thanks!
'Cus I can't remember what I'm actually using or what effect comes from where. I'm not using a lot of sources, so if I do end up having to go through manually, it won't be that big a pain. But the log will probably help a lot
Nothing seems to have broken, so, success!
first time on my computer in a week. Did the OBS update. now i get an error and said error also triggers windows security. the failed plugin is: obs-nvenc anyone else running into this issue?
!download @heavy perch Download and install obs-studio again.
@heavy perch
OBS Studio can be downloaded:
- directly from the official OBS Project website: https://obsproject.com/download
- Microsoft Store (Windows)
- Steam (Windows, macOS)
- Flathub (Linux)
Is there a way to see the chat even though im in a game?
Does that work for youtube also
Yes
Hi guys! My OBS keeps "Not responding" I figured out when disabling the Aitum Vertical Canvas plugin via safemode that it then seemed to fix the issue.
I have made sure the latest update is installed however issue still persists. Anybody could please help it would be greatly appreciated!

@uneven light There is an app on Flightsim.to that injects any channels chat including emojis into MSFS 2024 EFB.
and why should I need this?
Unless you play MSFS2024, you probably do not.
This is my first time in this server so forgive me if I am putting this in the wrong thread. I am desperate to get this Elgato 4kPro Capture card setup correctly before I absolutely get a bat and smash everything. Any takers
@balmy krakenWhat are you trying to capture?
I am trying to capture my gaming pc so video games using obs
something is not setup right I am more than willing to go live on discord to show you and maybe you can walk me through how to fix it if you are familiar with this type of thing.
@balmy kraken Are you using hdmi passthrough, or windows' display duplication, or a projector in obs-studio?
I was trying to do passthrough but I tried using chatgpt to help set it up and i think it set me back
my 4k capture utility is open on my streaming pc monitor and it says the source is 1440p60 and capture is 1080p60. Honestly i think the only way this is going to get fixed is if you would be willing to get in a call with me
Also i do not know what projector is
@balmy kraken Get a HDMI cable and connect the first PC's graphics card HDMI output with the capture card's HDMI input. Then, get a second HDMi cable and connect the capture card's HDMI output to your first PC's monitor.
can we get in a call please. This will be easier
this is what i have setup so far as hardware
my gaming monitor has a display port and wire coming from it to the gaming pc gpu then I have an hdmi cable in the back on my gaming pc gpu going to the in port of the capture card within the stream pc. Then I have an hdmi cable coming form the out port of the internal capture card going to my gaming pc. Then i have another monitor that has hdmi going from it to the gpu of the streaming pc. So i think this is correct. What do you think
You have an HDMI cable going from the output of the capture card to what?
I'll try to figure this out.
!log Can you please exit and reopen OBS before grabbing a log link for us?
Is hrws good option for heartrate tracking from smartwatch?
Or is there something better

you're using a portable install?
idk what you mean portable sorry

Is there a reason why the OBS websocket does not trigger the InputMuteStateChanged event on any kind of source other than audio inputs and outputs? Is this a bug with the plugin?
Asking since I have a trigger in Streamer.bot for this event and it only seems to trigger on those two source types, not browser sources or media sources.
more likely to be an issue with streamer.bot, I just tested and these events are working fine with both media and browser sources.
Interesting, thanks. Really odd.
Hi, I'm having a lot of trouble installing the InfoWriter plugin on OBS. My files don't look the same as the ones in the installation guide on the website. Could you please guide me through the installation process?
what did you download
assuming you're on windows that's the right one yee, what's the issue
the website guide files are not the same and i think it's because the guide seems old and i dont understand where to put the thing i downloaded in my OBS folders
sry if im not clear im playing at the same time
which website?
github
the files in question, the DLLs are tehre
they are here but i dont have the 32 bit folder
yeah that's normal
ah im probably dumb then
so how should i proceed?
did you put the .dll in the right folder
i did put in the 64bit folder of plugins
which exact folder
the last one
whole path
can you show the top bar of explorer too, showing the full path to the folders you're showing?
Hello. Does anybody know any plugin which is capable of applying a filter to the users face, based on either an input image or a defualt image from the plugin? The face in the image should replace the users face.
are you on windows and do you have a nvidia GPU?
Linux and mainly have AMD GPU, but can also access NVIDIA, do you know a plugin which uses Cuda?

Plugin for OBS Studio to move sources to a new position during scene transition
If the 2 scenes contain a source with similar name (configured with settings) it will do the move the position and size between the 2 positions.
Manual...
well, the plugin does work but I don't think the AR shit does
yes, the plugin works on all platforms but that doesn't mean all functionalities of it are supported on all platforms
It seems to be quite comprehensive, have you tried the part of it that does face replacement?
no
ok
just know it works
does anyone wanna test my tool for mutistreamers?
its an app that combines youtube and twitch
mayde help restream

Hey hope im in the right place was wondering who i could talk to ive been working on new plugin for obs i think im in testing faze ive got it working just wondering for advice
I’m building a working OBS plugin prototype that turns OBS into a live film timeline compositor.
Instead of only switching scenes manually, you can build timed live sequences inside OBS.
What it does
Add video clips to a timeline
Stack video clips as layers/overlays
Make audio from a video clip
Create separate linked audio clips
Control audio volume, mute, fade in, and fade out
Keep video/audio synced as linked clips
Render the timeline as a normal OBS source
Use OBS filters on timeline outputs
Control multiple timeline outputs
Arm outputs with a Master Controller
Use a Scene Timeline to sequence OBS scenes
Build intros, BRB screens, gameplay layouts, effects, and cinematic moments
Simple idea
It lets you build scenes like a film timeline, then perform them live inside OBS.
I
Do you have the source posted somewhere?
Not yet i think im just getting into testing faze dont know where to start
At a glance here, this seems vibe coded.
When you say "testing phase" do you mean you haven't checked if anything works yet?
Sorry i meant other people to test it as testing phase 😊and yeah most of it all works i tested it myelf 💪 worried wouldn't work on other systems
If you're distributing it to anyone else you would need to have the source available
The dll And the .cpp file i should be able to upload it tonight its my first plugin so im bit nervous 🤣
the dll file is not part of the source code, that's the compiled plugin
I would recommend getting a repository set up before doing anything else, so the source code can remain available.
With respect here, this plugin appears to be vibe-coded, as you don't really seem to have any idea the basics around development. I don't really have any interest in helping you use an AI to write software based on our project.
Best of luck with it, and keep in mind that regardless of anything else, if you distribute the plugin to anyone, you must provide the source. That is up to you to decide the best place or method to do that, and I recommend taking the time to read the GPLv2+ license that OBS is provided under.
Does anyone know how to get Studiorack to open in obs? I have it selected as a filter, but when i go to Open interface it doesnt open. Thank you for your time
Never i got it to work
can somone add me i need help with some text

Does anyone have any example of how I can get a plugin talking to twitch and listening for Twitch events?
For example: Raids, follows, Bits etc?
You're better off using a browser page for that.
im looking for a plugin ive seen one youtuber use
it makes it so their avatar has an outline over them when they talk that reacts to noise
im not sure if its obs or their character program, but im leaning towards obs
im trying to get a clip but i think its not a youtube feature anymore?
its a vtuber but its sfw
Sounds like this tbh https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/scale-to-sound.1336/
About
This plugin adds a filter called "Scale To Sound" which makes a source scale based on the audio levels of any audio source you choose. There are a few properties so you can fine tune how it behaves
check out advanced-scene-switcher, it does that
did you see the link i posted?
just making sure you think its right .-.
yeah, nah it's not using that
It's a stroke filter from the stroke glow shadow plugin that's tied to the audio levels with an audio move filter from the Move plugin
I had that before you posted it and given I'm working I can only poke discord much (along with not doing it while driving)
i found a tutorial on it it uses the stroke and move plugins ye

Simple OBS outline that grows and shrinks based on sound from any audio source you choose! It can use your voice, music, game, or anything that makes noise. The choice is yours.
Inspired by a stream viewer who asked me about my audio outline effect and how I created it.
Be sure to follow me on Twitch for more OBS tips and Game Dev. https://t...
So idk if im im the right spot to ask this but every time I go into a ps party or discord party everyone's voice starts coming through my controller, but it only does thay when I enter into a ps party or discord chat
The console should have settings for which place this audio is output to.
It just says hdmi
I think i fixed it
Has anyone been having issues if they have any of the Aitum Plugins with random crashes?
Do you have the crash report?
That’s the thing that sucks, every time it crashes I try to get the crash report, but it won’t even let me hit the button to get it.
What exactly happens when you say crash?
It gives me the OBS spot, but then when I try to click, yes to get the crash report, it won’t do anything, and I have to go through task manager to close it all the way.
Clicking yes copies the text to the clipboard.
You can access the crash logs from the menu there, if you pick "Show Crash Reports" there, it'll open the folder and you can just upload the latest one to this channel
All right next time it happens I’ll make it work.
The last 10 crash reports are stored
So you can just go grab the last one and confirm that it's even the plugin causing it.
Okay, not at my PC right now, but I will later and I’ll tag you.
Hey @hard jay I got those Crash Reports. Can I send them here?
Just grab the latest, don't try and send them all.
That's a crash from browser sources in OBS.
Weird, because all I added was the Aitum Stream Suite. No Browser Sources or anything yet.
I had just closed the program lol.
They likely use some internally for some of their panels I would wager.
But it's a known issue we've been trying to get to the bottom of. It's not clear at this stage what is actually going on with it.
Yeah, because before my reset then I would change Scene Collections it would crash.
yarp, it's something to do with unloading browser sources/panels
There's a race condition of some kind in there that we've been trying to track it down.
hey is there any plugins or support for recording controller input while playing the game?
Not overlaying the control input, but a way to record the controller input as the person is playing the game while recording the video
That doesn't sound like something that you would make a plugin for OBS for.
There's probably some external tools that can do it.
hmm its so odd we can see the button control overlays but not record it
Not really, recording inputs is very different than showing when they're pressed.
has anyone had issue with se.live / stream elemants keeep crashing obs for me?
people regularly do, yes I4d advise removing it
Need some help with advanced scene switcher. Trying to have text appear on the screen based upon a color change located in an area of a screen. When the color changes back, want it to disappear.
Hi, need help. why does the text file output selection is missing from the output destination selection? How do i fix this?
@mortal badge Good luck with the project, but we do not allow vibe coded resources to be advertised in our community. Thanks!
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I was not aware of the policy. Got it
I’m trying to create my own plug-in. I just can’t get it talking to Twitch properly. I’m using C++.
Well, I can’t get it talking to Twitch. I just can’t get it reading any of twitches alerts.
well, have you considered checking out how adv-ss does that?
since, it does that
I’ll take a look, thanks
whats your specific question about it?
does that happen with transitions normally, without using Transition Table?
and what type of transitions are they? the built in Fade and Stinger transitions, or plugin-based ones?
And the first question?
Then has nothing to do with that plugin and likely how the transition was made
Prob best to pop by a support channel
!s
If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!
But if it happens when not using transition table plugin it has nothing to do with that plugin. If they didnt get that specific bit of info, that would be why
You didnt state the issue and simply asked about that plugin. Best to share that additional info in a support channel
(was some good follow up detective questions here by @obsidian agate )
Hi there! I'm not sure if I should ask this in #macos-support or not but, I am desperately trying to find a keyboard overlay that will work on MacOS. The ones I keep finding do not appear to be MacOS compatible. The overlay will be used for short game tutorials and only needs to be WASD/arrows & space bar. Hopefully nothing too complicated. Thank you in advance for any help!
Help me, why is my obs suddenly looking like this? Please tell me so it can be like before
Docks in OBS can be managed from the Docks menu in the main OBS window.
You can toggle docks on and off, or lock or unlock docks to prevent moving and editing, as well as add custom browser-based docks here.
You can also reset the UI from this menu to return your docks to their original state (Docks > Reset Docks).
finally...thank you
Hello. I would like to take a photo of myself after 5-10 seconds using the “Advanced Automatic Scene Changer” plugin and my webcam. How do I set the plugin to work with a HotKey?
heyy not sure if this is the right spot to ask but I was wondering the best ways to dual/mulit stream using obs
!multistream It's the right place! Here you go. 👇
A third party plug-in for streaming to multiple endpoints is available for OBS Studio.
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/aitum-multistream.1991/
thank you!
Hi, I'm looking for a plugin that lets me crop a font irregularly (with angles greater or less than 90° at the corners), but I haven't found one. Does anyone know of one?
This is an idea of the overlay I made. I want to place the fonts in the shaded area without using masks.
Another option is shaderfilter + the included corner pin shader which is a bit simpler to use. https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/obs-shaderfilter.1736/
The filter can be added to any video source through the "Filters" option when right-clicking on a source. The name of the filter is "User-defined shader".
these effects include but are not limited to...
FileDescriptionExample...
Oh, I had forgotten about that one!
Hi all, just updated to 32.1.2 and Plugins Manager won't let me click on Browse or Updates and I'm trying to update the Audio Monitor plugin.
Any suggestions would be warmly welcomed.
Those labels are placeholders for future updates to unlock, when the features are available
They are labeled as coming soon
nice mouse-over
Wow, that's not great UI.
Actually, I think it's a UI bug: I wasn't getting the hint card on hover until now. I tried many, many times to click on these so my mouse defintiely spent a lot of time there.
Anyways, so then how do I get to my currently installed plugins to update?
It's possible. We're aware it's not the best UI/UX at the moment, but we want people to know we're working on it.
Ah okay fair. 🙏
Same as you always have, you download the new version and install it.
Cool. 👍 I'll admit, I haven't added/removed plugins on OBS for about 5 years, so when I saw the Plugin Manager, I assumed that was the way to do it.
I just logged a ticket on Github for this "bug". I'll go update it.
From a UI perspective, it might be better to literally include the hint in the button titles. i.e. Browse (coming soon)
@hard jay I see you beat me to it. 😉
Got a rough little question when you multi stream to either twitch or YouTube with aitum roughly how much more cpu % does it add
just wanted a rough estimate i know it wouldnt be the same for every but im trying to see which is better from different mulitstream services
It's unfortuantely not something that can be estimated.
the best estimate will be a test on your end 🙂
The service you're using is irrelevant.
Encoding and output is handled by OBS, so a dual stream to Twitch and YouTube would be the same as to Twitch and Restream.
If you're sending the exact same content, it can use the same encoder and will just take bandwidth.
If you're using multiple renditions, all bets are out the window.
@regal breach Just realized you specified to be pinged in here. If you have any insight on this, I'd appreciate it
can anyone give me some music player obs tools the ones i try dont work
Hi, I'm trying to make my waveform visualizer do an infinite loop of colors, go back and forth from -180.00 to 180.00, but I can't find out how to make it do an infinite loop. I'm using the move plugin.
you could go -180 to 180 in one action, then have the next action go from 180 to -180 with a 0ms second fade/whatever its called so it is instant, and then that trigger the first action again
how do i do that exactly?
another move value?
yeah, you create another filter and then you can set the next actions at the bottom of the filters properties
that worked, tysm!
sorry for asking for two issues, but i cant seem to get audio move to work in scale.
it stretches it way off screen, then sometimes it doesnt work at all
Hi, I found error with my code, It seems config_get_string method is returning int value. am I missing something?
idk why it tells you config_get_string returns int, cause it doesn't
I am trying to access multistream plugin but when i did the Multiple RTMP output, exe was trying to send it to plugin folder but when i double checked i had plugin_config and Plugin_manager
do i set it to one of those folders instead and if so which one?
Let it install the whatever location it defaults to first, make sure OBS is not open when you run it. Then if it doesn't show up in the Docks menu after, let us know.

I'm looking for a plugin called "Joypad-to-OBS" It lets you use a bluetooth gamepad to change scenes and perform other various functions during a live stream. Do you know how I can track down a copy of this? the author of the plugin deleted the entire github page and all i can find are broken links!
This is what i need, but its gone as of april 20th. I've even tried using wayback machine lol! But is there another backup/archive of plugins?
If they removed it, it's most likely no longer supported.
actually just figured out how to do it using a tiny app called JoyToKey
The resource was removed because it was obviously vibe coded, and the author didn't respond to inquiries to update the description or confirm that it wasn't. This is a violation of our policy, so it was removed.

So right now one source record filter is not starting recording.
What is happening is you are using the regular OBS recording which has everything on the canvas.
And then the one source record is running for one of the single sources but I don't know which.
Do you want to be recording the canvas with all its sources using the OBS Start Recording button?
idk
i just want it like the same as before but the web cam sepretly and the canvas without the web came
So first, do not click the Start Recording button in the main OBS interface.
Rename the two Source Record filters so they have different names than each other. You can do this in the filters window for each source.
Let me know when ready for next steps.
done
Cool, hide both SR filters, then change their Recording Mode to "Always"
Then open Settings > Hotkeys, set the same hotkey to unhide on both filters. Also set a hotkey to hide them both.
These hotkeys will function as your start and stop recording keys. When unhidden, they both record. When hidden they dont.
yo can i screen share to u if thats ok im hella dumb i cant fint the hotkeys for them @hallow vale
We can't do private support.
Search in the top left box of the Settings > Hotkeys window for what you named the source record filters. Did you rename them yet?
did that
ive put the name in to the filter and nothing shows
Screenshot the settings for that filter please
@weary mesa I think it's called "activate filter" and you'll have to search manually.
Or just don't search, amd scroll down through all the hotkeys till you see it.
what the go to filters and take sceen shots of all the setings i have on them
i did that for a while
Just the top part of the settings for the source record filter you were searching for just now.
The other one
2nd one
@weary mesa Found it, search for "source record" and you'll see them.
omg
hhahaha
i saw that so many times
Do your sr filters have a different name than default in the filters window?
My thinking was that changing their name makes them have diff name in hotkeys
(My 27.2.3 install is in shambles, I really ought to stop using it to demonstrate how to do things, I don't need half the plugins and they cause crashes.)
tried not took at the state of her own setup LOL
@hallow vale This is a much older install of source record, things may have changed since, but I think this should be the same. Hopefully.
yeah still doing the same my webcam still on my canvas
Does the main OBS recording start when you push your hotkey for the SR filters?
The button will turn blue if yes
yeaH
Ah, true. When I get back on the PC I'll try to FAFO. Thx!
Did you set a hotkey in OBS to start recording?
yeah u want me to unbind them ?
Yes, remember how I told you not to use the main OBS recording? That's what gives you a recording with both game and webcam that you don't want.
ok i unbinded them
Cool, test it out.
If it doesn't end up how you want share a new log link.
@weary mesa Don't forget to either add something to the filename formatting pattern or pick a different recording folder.
ok cool now i got the web cam recordnig but not the canvas
You don't want to record the camvas, right? Just the game and the cam separately?
like my game capture is black now not recording any thing
@hallow vale
never mind got it working
@hallow vale no i cant do out of game stuff
That's not a game, you can't capture things that are not games with that source.
Use Window capture as it says in the red text
do i have to put the filter on it too
If you want to record it all by itself with SR, yes.
YW!

in Advanced Scene Switcher, can i add 'Capture Foreground Window' as something that gets triggered?
capture foreground window is bound to a hotkey and advanced scene switcher can trigger hotkeys, so yes.
hmmmm okay, i tried that initially but it never worked. id imagine that maybe adding a short delay would assist>? for context i want it to trigger after a fullscreen app is focused again
no idea if your condition is correct but the trigger is pretty straight forward
awesome that works, now its switching between another macro i have infinitely so time to fix that 
thank you!
Hi. Can someone explain to me how I can take a screenshot in OBS using the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin and its macro function—specifically with a 10-second timer—without having to press a trigger?
@strong lantern you've basically outlined the process in your question, where are you getting stuck?
like, you add a macro with a timer condition and then add a screenshot action to it
That’s how it was explained to me, but when I press the hotkey to take a photo of myself after 10 seconds, there’s no photo in the storage folder.
I'm confused, you said you didn't want to press a key?
for the record when you say "10-second timer, without pressing a key" we assume you want it done every 10 seconds
Sorry, I made a mistake—of course I meant using a hotkey.
Yes, I have the trigger set to F12.
hold on you have a newer version of ASS that I do so lemme update it real quick
yeah I tried it and the way you have it works for me
you're sure that ASS is Active in the General tab?
if it's not active it won't do anything and you need to start it
In ASS, there is no gear icon.
Okay, I've set it up.
if you enable those top 3 options, the conditions will flash green if they are true and the actions will flash green when they are executed
so when you press the hotkey, the "wenn hotkey is pressed" condition should flash green for a moment
this should help you figure out if the macro is being triggered at all
Okay, thank you for your assistance. I will try it out later.
@light kiln moving this here.
Just so I understand well, you have like :
Scene A
Scene B
Scene C
Scene D
Scene E
Scene F
And what you want is, when you click on scene A B or C, it keeps looping between those three till you click on another, and same for D E and F?
So I currently have
Scenes with individual MP4’s that the committee created for publication on
Saturday schedule
Saturday military garden specific schedule
Saturday live arena band schedule ( my area )
Sunday the same
I have over 20 sponsors or contributors separate small MP4’s created canva to consider
Then my main stage for the live arena which will have stage camera possibly 2 and a crowd camera.
I have also been asked to create an around the town scene where I tie in 2 web cams we have situated on our life boat station constantly showing the sea / promenade
To get perspective
This charity event scales my whole town sea front over a mile with last year probably seeing 20-30k attendance
ok, none of that really matters to what you are trying to do, the question sin't really what is in the scene the question, is what behaviour do you want
I want to be able to set up 1/2/10 scenes. Have that with a rule that if I transition to that scene it will auto transition through those selected scenes
So I can at least automate some of the sensors stuff
and you want an automated way to have that behaviour when you create scenes?
I don’t mind duplicating content so the specific scenes could be titles automated.
So that that specific set will reel through the group at set time gaps at any point or scene it’s clicked on
I will have to have some basic interaction to switch stuff for the 10 hours the event is on. But limiting my need to constantly transition would be great
Promo scenes x 10 rule
Update scenes x 5 rule
Manual move to live stage ( cancels any rules in the previous scenes )
If you get me
ouki, imma see what's the bst way to make it
Appreciate this
Ok, so basically here's what I'd advise as setup :
1 : Name your scenes so that all of those in the same loop have that loop's name in their name
2 : for each scene in that loop create a macro with no condition, and a sole action of "switch to that scene"
3 : Create one master macro that, if the scene name has the loop name in it, runs a given sequence of macros, and wait X time inbetween, and add each of the individual macros to that sequence
Tell me if that's what you're expecting
Here's the setup to import

I think the Nvidia background removal plugin is keeping me from saving my scene collection. I can save it from safe mode... I was going to uninstall the nvidia sdk and switch to nvidia broadcast but... before i do, is this just a thing where i should wait for an update? or maybe I missed a setting....
! nvafx Definitely check if there's an update you can perform manually. No plugins update automatically.
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."
Tried that earlier, tried again now just in case, no luck
!safemode Then it's probably not the Nvidia one. Try in safe mode.
In case a plugin is causing issues, try opening OBS Studio in Safe Mode. This mode prevents plugins and the built-in WebSockets server from loading which can help you identify whether a plugin is causing issues for your setup.
- Click on the Help menu → Restart in Safe Mode
- When you are finished with safe mode, click on the Help menu → Restart in Normal Mode
Let's me do it in safemode...
Use the Plugin Manager from the tools menu to disable plugins one by one and test then. Should help you find the culprit.
Before I get started on that... is missing plugins an issue?
Only if you need that plugin to work. If not, you can remove it.
im using elgato marketplace, and downloaded "basic OBS Podcast setup" overlay to begin to setup. I installed the plug ins it required and when following the instructions to click on "discord audio" in the guest camera scene, it crashes everytime. Google says it could be due to an old plugin?
** Im unsure if this is a macOS issue or a plug in issue **
how do i put plugins into obs

can someone help me with background removal
okay im a little stumped with my advanced scene switcher macros and troubleshooting it and would like some assistance.
context: i am wanting to set up two macros such that one of them detects if a game capture is hooked and is fullscreen and focused (i.e i am tabbed into the game), it runs the relevant "capture foreground window" hotkey and swaps to that Games scene. then, if i tab out of the game / focus another window that isnt full screen, it swaps to another scene that has a display capture. that way i can record my desktop n wahtnot when i need to with Display Capture, but then when i am in-game, it uses Game Capture.
the "Desktop Focus" macro should be the one that swaps to the display capture scene, and the "Game Focus" macro should be the one that swaps to the Game Capture scene.
Right now, its just not swapping scenes and im unsure whats going on. does anyone know what it could be? or does anyone have any advice on how to approach this better?
Anyone streaming 3 live streams using the Multi output plugin? I can do 2 comfortably but 3 seem to drag my Kbps down. Just trying to find a cause at this point.
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.
@mellow nymph Looks like this macro will only trigger when you're already capturing something, that seems redundant. Not only that, but you can't target the same game with more than 1 game capture source, every source beyond the 1st will fail, or sometimes all will fail.
quick questions. Im about to upgrade to a new pc and i was wondering if there was an easy way to transfer my OBS work space (Filters and VST configs and everything) to my new pcs obs.
To export OBS settings to back them up, go to Profile > Export (to export streaming/recording settings) and Scene Collection > Export (to export scenes).
@runic oxide I’m wired to my modem and it’s testing at 1300mbps.
Speed tests mean very little with regards to streaming and your choice of bitrate. They measure your raw upload speed to a server that's near you (likely run by your local ISP), instead of your stable upload speed to a streaming server. Your stable speed will determine the bitrate you can comfortably stream at.
The stable speed can be estimated as roughly 70-75% of the speed test result in a lot of cases, however this is by no means a perfect estimate. In reality, it may end up being much worse if there's problems between your ISP and the streaming service.
If you need more help diagnosing with the first guide i linked, pop by #windows-support if you're on windows, etc
okay yeah this did help a bit. its now swapping between the two scenes which is nice. however, its not swapping from game scene to desktop scene when i select a program that is maximized. however, as soon as the program isnt maximized (i.e is just a small box and not the full screen size) it swaps to desktop scene just fine
does any1 have a tool or any tips on how i could go about recording my game footage only, without recording overlay, face cam etc
! plugins
The Source-Record plugin can do that
OBS Studio supports a variety of plugins that provide new kinds of sources, filters, and additional features.

- To see if the plugins you use are available for the latest version of OBS Studio, see the OBS Studio 28 Plugin Compatibility table
ok thank you, and to add a plugin i just download it and add it to obs i guess
thank you sir
The guide above covers installation
its the Source Record 0.4.8 right_
figured it out thanks man 😄
I normally use streamlabs but i just finally got my capture card and just started obs studio , his does plug in work , do you plug it in from streamlabs to obs source or it does or for you
If you have your own custom alert even if it’s a chat box or tip jar ?
And now how to switch from the counter to the streaming game sequence once the counter is finished
the default script doesn't have that option so you'd have to do it manually
or you could conceivable use advanced scene switcher to check if the text source is at the end of the counter and witch
hm I tried to just recreate a countdown timer in ASS and that does not work as well as one would expect
im stuck in safe mode
Howdy. I've tried a couple of times in the last two days to add a plug-in to the Resources area of the Forum. Fill in the form, all goes well, hit the Save button and get the expected message stating manual review is required before going public. However, the next day the entire post is gone. Wondering what's up? Some other verification required?
It's "hidden" until reviewed.
Unfortunately I believe you aren't told explicitly if denied though I think someone will manually inform you.
Hi team, i having an issue starting up my obs with the streamelements plugin, every time i open the app (OBS) it loads for a second and then crashes. I've ran it in safe mode and everything runs fine until i enable the plugin then it restarts and crashes, is this something to do with my obs or my streamelements plugin? (i've unninstalled and re-installed the plugin and there's been no change. Also it was working perfectly fine for me at 22:00 last night)
You have a few choices.
1 - Disable and don't use the plugin
2 - Uninstall the plugin and find alternatives
3 - Contact SE support to correct the issues with the plugins
Okay awesome I'll contact streamelements now, thanks for the help

Hi! My post got deleted again. After I edit my post since the description was a little wrong. It was posted since the beginning of this year on the forum and someone removed. I’m not using ai. Anyone can reach me out to help me on this. Please.
although I wasn't the one who reviewed/removed it, the website advertises the AI features in the app so even without looking at any source code the rejection reason still stands.
Does the websockets function in OBS use a remote server or set up the input device and the computer as a server and client? Why is a password suggested?
it's a local server (obs itself is the "server") and on its own, only works on the local network
there's a password cause evn then, notnnecessarily a good idea to leave free control of obs to anybody on the local network
Everything is python no Ai on it. The whole plugin runs 100% local no cloud or ai learning need it.
Security. Since runs using the local ip, etc.
Let me know if you guys can review it.
the password is suggested because the other two bits (address and port) are usually the same, so if you don't set a password a website you visit in your browser could control your obs without your consent
so for instance you could be a streamer and one of your viewers sends you a link and you're like "this link doesn't look shady and also I'm behind seven proxies and using a vpn" so you go there, then that webpage could connect to your obs because all it has to do is connect to localhost:4455
the password stops that
hey all. does anyone know of a plugin that can have a persistent chyron across all your scenes that can be switched independently of the selected scene?
This is a great tool.
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/downstream-keyer.1254/
actively maintained, too!
thank you!
I can't tell: I have to rebuild from source in order for this to be usable? I tried installing the .pkg but it doesn't seem to be showing up anywhere after restarting OBS
Which OS are you on?
If you see it in plugin manager and it's not saying disabled or anything then it's good to go
I see there's a specific Dock for it and there are some things I can do in there, but e.g.there's no way to add it as a source
It does not function as a source, it adds stuff on top of your output via the dock.
sorry, AFAICT there's not much in the way of documentation here and whatever it is I'm supposed to do next is a bit of a mystery
I haven't messed with it any more than just trying to install it and uninstalling it before. There's a video that explains it on the plugin page that should be good.
I think I get it now. You create a bunch more scenes, one for each thing you want to have, and then you only use them in DSK in the Dock
does anyone know how to setup a dual pc obs stuff. i have tp and everything i just cant get my vertical scenes to show up on the 2nd pc or anything really
You only really want to run OBS on the streaming/recording PC, that's where you set up the vertical scenes.
Are you using a capture card between the two PCs?
presumably tp means teleport
Ohhhh, my brain wanted to say it was Touch Portal haha
ditto
Does anyone know of a plugin or third party tool that could show an overlay on my monitor while a source is or isn't active?
My goal is to have something like an 'ON AIR' bright sign, but on my second monitor, while my mic is active in the current OBS scene. I would also like to have something that can indicate when my camera source is turned off in the same fashion.
Eventually I'd love to hook it up to an external device like a 7 segment LCD, or even one of those pixel frames
I'm not sure of an overlay, but that's what I use Touch Portal for on a tablet. It acts as a controller for OBS and has indicators for source and filter visibility, on air/recording status, and more.
I don't think I would notice on a phone or tablet screen any more than on my OBS preview on my third monitor on if I have my webcam up or if I'm muted. Maybe I can find something that can just read whether a source is active or not and output that to something that I can grab as a display indicator
ooh, why there isn't an osd/hud plugin of obs stuff?
which part of OBS "stuff"?
It takes some getting used to , as far as where to look. but I usually have one below my main monitor, 7 inch tablet, so it's not hard to miss the status. And I use it to control obs too, with pages for different scene collections and profiles.
Can someone suggest a background removal pluggin pls
Which GPU do you have in your PC?
what was described, customizable indicators for when something is muted or a (un)wanted source is enabled/disabled
on-screen overlays can be difficult to draw over some games and other apps. While the demand may be there, it still takes someone to write it and maintain it for different operating systems and obs updates.
Remote control apps and devices, however, are ubiquitous.
isn't that info possible to grab via websockets and then straight to the twitch transperant chat overlay widget thingy
probably. That's how most of the TP gets states and actions, via websocket.
yeah. seems like a half hour web dev adventure
There is an OSD plugin for OBS. I don't have the direct link but I have played with it before. Can't recall if it shows source/ recording/ etc. stuff
Was it OBS HUD, maybe?
Yep. Sorry, bailed out to spend time with the pupper
i got 2 gpus, they are
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."
u guys know which one
Background removal is Video effects, download the one for your RTX card
unless you mean "background noise", then it is noise suppression, under Audio Effects.
its background removal
Then Video Effects.
alr
these r the gpus
for it
so which one is best can u screenshot for me pls
You have an RTX 20xx series, according to your screenshot.
The one that matches your gpu. The 20xx series download
yes, because 2050 is the 20xx series
#vertical
Are you looking for a vertical canvas plugin? Try the one by Aitum
now its downloaded, will I need to open the nvidia app on my computer or wht r the next steps
running the installer and following the steps will be enough
Make sure OBS is closed when you run it

For this plugin https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/audio-monitor.1186/ how do I get the 64 bit one? I have the 32 atm I think. And also does it support OBS version 27.2.4?
Plugin for OBS Studio to add Audio Monitor dock and filter. It allows you to put the audio of a OBS source to an audio device by adding the Audio Monitor filter on the Source in OBS Studio.
This can be useful in different use cases...
you get both versions. you need to find and download version 0.9.3 or 0.9.4 as 0.10 or up requires obs 31.1
Do they have a discord server? Since I can't seem to find one
I don't think so. The versions are on this page, though. https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/audio-monitor.1186/updates
(https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/audio-monitor.1186/history this page has the downloads however)
Huh, i thought theupdates page would link to the downloads, but I guess not.
When I got the plugin for my main laptop I got the installer one and my folder path shows it might be the 32 bit one. The zip one might work but it's more confusing for me to use.
Why are you using such an old OBS version? Maybe an update is due
I'm using it for my alt laptop which is only Windows 8.1. I'm doing this so my brother @silk kernel can see both my main laptop and alt laptop on his tv. My main laptop to his tv works but then he can't see my alt one. I don't want to open my OBS on my main one since then games would be unplayable. So I'm using a capture card to take my main laptop into my alts OBS and then my alt laptop HDMI port to my brothers tv. This way the alt laptop controls everything instead of one of each
Okay, sounds fine. Have you tried using the installer for one of the versions of the monitor plugin that Echo mentioned?
I'm not sure what one is the latest that would support my alt laptops OBS.
He said a couple of specific version numbers and we linked the pages
Yea it's 0.9.3 or 0.9.4. I don't see 9.4 so maybe 9.3
Give it a shot! Worse comes to worse it doesn't work and you try another version.
For the installer file, does it have an option to change the bit?
Try the regular one first and see. There is no option, but some plugins may have had two versions available
So I installed it but I can't tell if it's listed or not. I see this listed but idk if it's it or not
check the Effects Filters section at the bottom
Was OBS open when you installed it?
Don't think so. I think I made sure it was closed
And I checked it and I don't see it it. I only see these
if you're using OBS 27.2.4 you'd need quite an old version of the plugin as well
figuring out which will probably take a bit of trial and error on your end
So I probably got one that isn't supported for it? Since when I opened OBS I didn't get any errors like plugin failed to load
possibly version 0.8.0, since 0.8.1 is the first to support OBS 28?
I don't even think those error messages exist on that old version of OBS, but probably yes.
it won't tell you plugins failed to load unless you look at the log
it also looks like versions previous to 0.9.3 are not available in the Releases anymore on the repo
Here's the log
- Old Version (27.2.4)
- Integrated GPU
- Windows 8.1 (EOL)
- Plugins Not Loaded (1)
- Insufficient Hardware
- No Output Session
The previous versions are listed
The OBS itself version for my alt laptop came out in Mar 29, 2022 so maybe I use a plugin version around that time. Also how do I uninstall the old version?
Maybe this feb version might work
Did you use the installer? If so, uninstall it from Windows Settings Add Remove Programs (IIRC the name right)
ah, good they are there. I was looking directly on the repo on github and it stopped at 0.9.0
try 0.8.0
Yes, it's a good idea to delete the old versions before installing the new ones.
If I uninstalled all versions before new ones I do, would my saved data (like any filters etc I added) save or would it all get deleted? I want to make sure I don't lose any filters I made. My alt laptop has no filters so it won't matter but I mean for my main laptop
No, you won't lose anything. The filter settings are saved in OBS scene collections.
And the 0.8.1 version says OBS version 28 support so it probably won't work
Pretty sure someone mentioned that yes
Yupp 🙂
Yep listed now
good good good
For some reason the audio isn't working. After I added the plugin and sent it's audio to my laptops audio source I can't hear it. Even in the activity it shows nothing either
Does the audio mixer show activity when you remove the audio filter plugin from it?
Nope
My brother told me the issue. I had to add an Audio Input source. I thought I didn't need it since the Capture Card has audio built in and I thought it would work without it
Also for some reason the audio is so low. I added a gain filter and didn't help.
for me it never works that way with camera sources, i have to separately add the capture card input separately either audio input or setting it on obs settings
perhaps check the windows volume slider
or the output is already coming quiet which in that case check the source audio volume controls
Is there a application/website (that works on mobile) that I can use to control my audio mixer
!remote This below is for controlling OBS from another device, is that what you are hoping to do?
OBS Studio can be remote controlled via WebSocket and some apps that connect to it. For more information, including a list of compatible apps, see the Remote Control Guide.
To learn more about using the obs-websocket API in your script or application, see the Developer Guide or join the obs-websocket Discord server for support from the developers and community.
That helps. Thanks.
Idk what I did but one thing I did do is clicked on the capture card properties and on the bottom I checked the "Use custom audio device" and I selected the capture card and I was able to have that use audio as well as the capture cards video part. Idk if that fixed the low part or what, but in the end I got the gain and other things working.
For this plugin https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/distroav-network-audio-video-in-obs-studio-using-ndi®-technology.528/updates does it not have a version for 27.2.4? I can't seem to see one that might work for it
4.10 is when they added v28 support in obs ndi (now called DistroAV)
When I saw the OBS 22 thing I thought I needed an older one than that. But I forgot my OBS is 27.2.4 (27 for short). My brain wasn't working for a sec lol
I have to get the 4.9.0 since the 9.1 is listed. Not sure why in the history shows the bug fix if the download link isn't there
Actually nvm. Since the 9.0 one download requires me to get it from github (unlike the audio one I think it downloaded automatically) and on GitHub the 9.1 one is listed
Some reason the install failed. And I get this error
- Old Version (27.2.4)
- Integrated GPU
- Windows 8.1 (EOL)
- Insufficient Hardware
- No Output Session
- Third-Party Plugins (1)
Whatever components the installer may have had to download dont appear to exist at the location anymore.
This is why trying to keep using older versions of software can become a huge hassle.
Try using the zip version rather than the installer for that reason.
Is the installer bugged?
And if so how do I install it with the zip way? I never did it before so idk how to do it correctly

You want that middle link in there.
C:\Program Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit here?
Also if I have to merge the data and 64 bit folders with the current folders, wouldn't that make my other plugins get deleted to?
@gusty barn Before I send them a link for the NDI-Tools option do you have a copy of the windows build above? Wayback machine doesn't have it stored.
@vague mica
On the last link of this post https://github.com/DistroAV/DistroAV/issues/576 it has it here
https://web.archive.org/web/20230122090150/https://ndi.palakis.fr/tools/ndi-tools-4.5.1-Windows.exe
Did you get that from the link above?
@vague mica I downloaded obs-ndi and the ndi runtime around 2021.
@vague mica A single ndi source can be video+audio or audio only, you can send specific video or audio sources by adding a "dedicated ndi(tm) output" filter to them.
Installed the NDI thing and now the plugin is working. I was curious, does the plugin allow audio or only video?
Both. You can choose which depending on which filter you choose.
Or there's also an NDI output for the whole canvas and everything in the Tools menu
So my Ethernet cable is connected between my main Win 10 laptop and my alt Win 8.1 laptop. I want to use the NDI plugin to add the main as a display but in extend mode. How do I use the plugin? I added the source but it only shows a name thing and I'm confused
Are you using OBS on both PCs or just the receiving one?
Only my alt laptop has it open. My main laptop I don't want it open since of lag for my games
I haven't used NDI without OBS on a sending PC. Do you have the NDI runtime set up for sending the display?
you don't
this is not something NDI does
I do have a program called Spacedesk that does another display but it's super laggy on my alt laptop. OBS is more smoother. Would I be able to send the Spacedesk data to OBS on my alt laptop?
I think you would be better off buying a capture card
Yea I do have a capture card. I actually have 2. One I got a few years ago (my younger brought it for me as a Christmas present) and then I got one like a week or 2 ago myself. One is used for showing my Xbox on my alt laptop and the second one is used for showing my main laptop on it. But the main laptop screen is dupe mode. I want 2 for the main. One for dupe mode for my brother @silk kernel to see my main laptop on his tv (my alt laptop sends it's whole screen on his tv with a HDMI cable on dupe mode etc) and I want one for extend mode for my main laptop so I can put games I'm doing afk grinding in on while I watch videos on my main display. Don't care if my brother sees that window or not. So I want one for my game and one for my brother to see everything. Is there a way with 1 capture card to have 2 displays on OBS? Like have 1 extend mode and 1 dupe mode?
idk if windows can mix-and-match extending and duplicating?
if it can, I don't know how to do it
Idk if I remember my brother mentioning he had a plugin or something where 1 thing can become 2. But atm he's sleeping so I have to wait until he gets up
You don't need a capture card to show your laptop on a TV, just an HDMI cable, like your brother is doing.
Like basically I want my alt laptop to host all my displays. I want my main laptop going though my alt laptop to his tv. Since if my main laptop goes to the tv directly he can't see my alt laptop and also when I'm awake and he's sleeping I don't want him to see my main laptop and I have to change the display from dupe to extend and change it back to dupe when he gets up. And that is very tedious
Having a Windows 8.1 laptop with enough USB bandwidth to support multiple capture cards is also very doubtful. Those things do not have the most USB bandwidth, and you'll likely end up dealing with constraints there.
As in, either the devices won't support full resolution, or just flat out won't work. This is a fourteen year old laptop that was low performance when it was released.
For the plugin I got, do I have to have OBS running on my main laptop to send it to my alt? Is that the only way it works?
If you're refeerring to NDI, then yes.
Just curious, if I chose to do the NDI thing and if I had both laptops with OBS and I did the NDI thing, would it be possible to have 2 sources with it that one is dupe display and one is extended display?
So I found from Google AI that there is another software called "vMix Display Capture" that acts like DVI sender and it's a lot less demanding on my main laptop and my alt laptop plugin that I got can see it. I also had to get VDD.Control so windows can add more display and trick it into think another display is in for the alt laptop to see it. A lot of tweaking and troubleshooting but I got it not to laggy (in the beginning it was getting mouse delay than I fixed that but than got actual fps like lag but fixed that to etc). I tested it and it is def smoother than space desk. Idk if it's 100% smooth but it might be good enough for me for now.

Hey everyone! (: I’m new here! I’m not too sure if this is the right channel (let me know if it isn’t), but I tried installing the plugin “Source Record,” and no matter how many times I’ve tried, it won’t separate the gameplay or display screen from my webcam. It only does it occasionally when it feels like it (as silly as that sounds.) Any advice?
Can you screenshot the top of the settings for the source record filter?
Like whatever is visible when you open the filter settings is fine
I blurred out the “folder” video part just cause it’s got my name on there, but this is what I have.
If this is what you’re looking for. 😅
These are my settings in general.
Yes, this shows the problem. See the Filename Formatting is using the exact same format as the main OBS recording. The computer can't record two different things to the same file name. Add a word to the end of filter filename field, like "camera"
Ah, okay! Mind just showing me where that is and how to do that? I’m afraid I’m a bit new at OBS. (:>
I put a line under it in your picture LOL
Oh! Yes yes! I see! So just put “camera” there?
At the end. Do not remove the weird stuff
Mmm, I’m afraid it’s still connected…
What is connected?
Did you make a new recording just now after changing that?
Mhm!
!log It didn't seem like you had time LOL
Send a log link and I can check
- Windows 11 25H2 (OK)
- Not Admin
- Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduler
- Third-Party Plugins (1)
Hmm, it seemed to ignore the name change. Can you screenshot the whole filter window for me?
!screenshot
How to take a screenshot - http://www.take-a-screenshot.org/
In case you need it
Would you like the whole thing? I believe I may need to take a few pictures to do that. (:
No just the whole filter window with the top section of the settings showing. No cropping
Like this?
Is this the only source you want to use source record for?
As in: You only want to have a normal OBS recording of the canvas, and one separate recording of the webcam only?
I would like to try to use it for both my webcam and my gameplay, if possible, just so that I can move around my webcam at certain points during the editing process.
If there’s a simpler way to do that, definitely LMK. 😅
So you don't need the main OBS canvas recorded to have multiple sources in it?
Just game alone, and then webcam alone?
Mmmm, maybe? That could work. I was told that I would have both the webcam and gameplay together and then I’d have two more videos separating the gameplay from the webcam. (:>
But if that’s not possible, then that’s fine.
I can help you set up either way, just let me know what you want
I’d love the first way, if possible, where I can have a video of them together and then two separate videos separating both from each other. ^^
Am I high, or just not seeing a source that would capture your game?
I have two scenes! (: One is the webcam and the other is for media (gameplay and a background incase the game is cut at the edges). I don’t have a game set up yet. I just have the background, but it won’t even record that, so I’m not sure if it’ll work for actual gameplay either. 😅
Got a weird issue with the advanced scene switcher, specifically the StreamDeck triggers...
Sometimes they don't trigger on first launch of OBS, or even a few subsequent ones, and I then have to open the StreamDeck window to have it properly work
not sure if someone else had that before already?
@potent vault Is obs-studio running as admin?
In total you have three source record filters in OBS and all but one are trying to write the same file.
Delete these two Source Record filters, one on a source, one on a scene.
13:55:36.979: - source: 'Border & Image' (group)
13:55:36.979: - filter: 'Source Record'
13:55:36.979: - scene 'Webcam':
13:55:36.979: - filter: 'Source Record' (source_record_filt
Nope
Sometimes it does work on first try as well just fine, it's really weird
Okay! Ive deleted both. ^^
!log Cool, now close OBS, reopen it, and send a log link. I just wanna make sure nothing else snuck by my perception
- Windows 11 25H2 (OK)
- Not Admin
- No Output Session
- Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduler
- Third-Party Plugins (1)
Okay, now there are no spurce record filters, all cleaned up.
Make a scene that has a source to capture your game and your webcam in it, that will be for your main OBS recording. Move things around how you like.
Then add source record filters to the game and the webcam sources. Make sure to add a word at the end of their Filename Formatting (one can be "game" the other can be "cam"). That should do it!
Holy Shnikey you did it! 😭
Thanks a whole bunch! That works! I appreciate your help so much!!
Woohooo! You're most welcome! I'm glad I could help!
yeah that too, which is the more "official" way of doing OAuth anyway
Hello, I have a problem when adding my plugin to an installed version of OBS (last version):
-When launching OBS studio in VS I have my plugin correctly visible
(VS console:)
'obs64.exe' (Win32): Loaded '....\obs-studio\out\install\x64-Release\obs-plugins\64bit\test-plugin.dll'. Symbols loaded.
Loading module: test-plugin.dll
-But when I try to add it to an OBS installation (dll + local)
I have this log :
Module '../../obs-plugins/64bit/test-plugin.dll' not loaded
There is more than the dll and the local folder to add ?
It's a source plugin
Usually that means a dependency is missing
So my OBS build is incomplet ?
No, your plugin depends on a dll that you didn't copy over to your OBS installation
Try this app for some insight https://github.com/lucasg/Dependencies#dependencies---an-open-source-modern-dependency-walker
@dark sapphire thank you
I have it in the "Loaded Modules" list of the logs now, but still not in my list of source in OBS, is it still related to a missing dll ?
Does anyone know of a PTZ control dock/plugin, that is NOT ptzoptics, that works with any ol network controlled ptz camera, the one im using is an FDT one
Have you tried the ptzoptics one? If I remember right, it should work with generic PTZ cameras as well.
pretty sure the shaderfilter is windows only
Oh really
yeah it is
I'm trying to achieve this rounded web cam. Any other way to achieve this?
add an image mask filter
Okay @vivid sapphire. Got any resources to this? Kinda new to OBS 🙂
Thanks
While OBS Shaderfilter isn't available for Mac currently, the StreamFX and OBS Shaderfilter Plus plugins are both available for Mac and provide shader loading functionality. The easiest way to do a circular or other static shaped camera is with the Image Mask filter as dodgepong suggested. It can even use animated GIF and possibly other animated file formats (you'd have to test them though). On the shader side, a custom shader would be needed which isn't difficult to do and is potentially quite flexible/configurable, but Image Mask is so much easier for just a round mask.
hi
Very detailed thanks @quiet bramble
@winter kindle if you want OBS Shaderfilter for Mac you can try this build I made:
https://github.com/exeldro/obs-shaderfilter/releases/tag/Mactest1
@weak escarp Is it possible to add these two features to Source Switcher:
- Selection box in front of listed items to toggle specific sources on or off so I don't have to remove and add them on different occasions
- Drop down (as option) when adding sources
Hello, I am unable to see NDI as a source on my Macbook Pro. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Both would require changes in OBS itself as settings like that are not part of OBS at the moment
Hello, it would be helpful if someone who knew about OBS could help me.
I have installed the pluging "source switcher" (used to create a playlist with videos, automatic)
The problem is that the videos inserted in the source switcher work correctly, but in streaming the audio of the video is not heard, only the image but not audio is transmitted.
I have been trying to solve it for more than a week but there has been no way.
I would be very grateful and it would be of great help, Thank you.
what version of source switcher are you using? It should be fixed in version 0.2.8
I already asked them to make sure they were up to date 😊
Thanks for info 👍
is there any type of vst plugin that can make your voice not to cut as soon as you finish speaking, like a sort of fade? sorry but I don't know if anything like that exists and I wouldn't know how to explain myself better..
what you want is a noise gate with a gradual release.
should I increase the release here?
yeah, I'd set the release to about 500ms
ok
Im new here
Dude, you've been trolling here since yesterday now, please just stop.
It's neither funny not does anyone believe that you are Mr. Beast, honestly you should just leave the server if you're not trying to help anyone nor have a problem with OBS
I m using OBS for the frist time. I can't figure out my pblm. I tried to create display source but nothing happend. I have watched a lot of videos in youtube. When they created display source there are a lot of multiple displays appears. In my case nothing happend like that. I don't even know it's working or not.

@mortal harbor You're looking for an exapander, which is what most people should be using instead of a gate anyways. Gates are evil. The best series on this stuff that's worth watching in its entirety:

Anyone know how I can make my music get quieter automatically when my alerts are playing from Streamelements? I currently use either spotify or monstercat in a browser
Sidechain compression (ducking) is available by using the Compressor filter on your audio sources. For a video guide, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Te2JERlInQ
thanks @oblique yew 
i am looking for virtual cam for linux
Windows: OBS v26 and above contains a basic virtual camera. For advanced usage, such as preview or specific scene/source output, try the third party plugin.
macOS: OBS v26.1 and above contains a standard virtual camera. Having issues with specific programs? Check this guide.
Linux: OBS v26.1 and above contains a standard virtual camera. v4l2loopback is required, best installed via the v4l2loopback-dkms package.
Morning all, does anyone happen to know of an extension/tool for OBS that will let me see stream viewers (not the list of users in chat)?
what do you mean by "see"?
Just a simple list of usernames
twitch doesn't expose a list of viewers in the same way it exposes a list of chatters
It's hard to engage with chat, when you don't know if someone is a real person or a bot....granted people that want to interact will likely say something themselves
I'm trying to add the ReaPlugs VST Plugin to OBS. Does anybody know why OBS always crashes when I try to add the VST Plugin as a filter to my microphone?
Does anyone knows a zoom shader for OBS?
Anyone know if there are any plug-ins or widgets for MLB the show?
Ты кто?
@nimble egret What?
Tri gun don
I was wondering if there is something that I can use ti read chat while I play the game since I have a single monitor
in vlc where is the downloaded cover art located
Depends on what you mean by "zoom shader". If you mean the ability to say... zoom your camera in for a closeup, that can be done with OBS itself without any shader just by having 2 scenes set up with one zoomed in on the camera and switching between them with a hotkey or streamdeck or whatever. To get fancy you can use the move-transition plugin's filters to have it smoothly zoom in from one position to another if desired (which is pretty cool)
