Yeah, unfortunately you'll have to reach out to them for further assistance on why their plugin can't uninstall :(
Have you tried rebooting and running the uninstall again?
thank you, i really appreciate it
let me try that
I remember on the old obs.live version, if you updated to a newer OBS, the uninstaller would refuse to complete. I remember having to tell people they have do downgrade to OBS25, then run the obs.live installer 😦 Hopefully that is not the case here tho. Im sure streamElements people would know better than I do (this is quite a long time ago)
ok i rebooted same issues arise, im going to reach out to stream elements to fix it so i can get obs the right way!
Throwback to the time I had to uninstall a participants OBS.Live and doing their setup went from an 8 min job to a 1 hr 15m job 
hey its me again i have done a clean install
so now what do i do for the dropped frame the "your connection" mnetioned earlier
Looking for help with Replay Source plugin... Whenever I add "Replay Filter" to a camera, it adds it to filter list for a second and then it disappears. Any ideas
you are not supposed to add a replay filter yourself, the replay source should do that for you if needed
Voice cracks in OBS When two persons male and female speak alternatively. Female voice cracks

@weak escarp would it be very difficult to manipulate a sentence with the GDI text, leaving this sentence with 2 different colors and a part of the sublimated text through a plugin?
@opaque blaze there are a few ways i see it being possible:
option 1, split it into 2 text sources with different colors
option 2, use the text source as a "dynamic mask" for another source, which can be an image file or a "gradient source" source
the latter involves using streamfx and either an image editor or the gradient source plugin, https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/gradient-source.1172/ https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/streamfx-for-obs®-studio.578/
Splitting the text into two parts would not work. I want to get this result for an alert.
@opaque blaze wrong screenshot?
Can we stream to two YouTube accounts at once? Is there a plugin for streaming simultaneously?
!multirtmp @wary radish
@wary radish
A third party plug-in for streaming to multiple RTMP servers is available for OBS Studio. https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/multiple-rtmp-outputs-plugin.964
Thanks! @untold jay
This isn't available without plugin, right? Like, the vanilla OBS install.
correct
Eh, that's a bit of a trap to fall in to.
Plugins exist to support niche use cases.
look there and have ... fun :-)
I assumed that popular would be the useful ones to dive first into.
Thanks @civic crest
Example screenshot of what I talked about. A phrase in two different colors. If I create 2 texts, the formatting will be wrong according to the size of the name.
@opaque blaze and where does this text come from? obs-studio'stext source cannot automatically format text like this, so i'm not sure this is doable without plugins or web stuff
@civic crest how to find most popular ones?
Most popular is subjective. Most important for YOUR use case is more important
i don't think that exists.
Oh, alright.
Yes, the text comes from OBS and that's exactly why I gave the suggestion. OBS by default only accepts one color, except the gradient color option, which would not be the way I mentioned.
Ah, seems interesting!
I'm a few months into OBS. Tell me something I didn't know OBS could do 👀📢
Example^
@wary radish most things are documented in the wiki, https://obsproject.com/wiki/
Thanks! @untold jay
If I knew OBS had such a great community, I'd have joined it earlier.
ya, me too
That's definitely one thing. :)
What audio software should I use along with OBS (on Mac, if that matters)?
Depends, do you want something really good, but $100, or something free that works fine
correct
soo is there anyway you can see it on obs
Thanks for the answer twas helpful
enable FFZ in OBS options, then open it's config panel and enable 7tv emote support
Are there any existing plugins that allow a transition to mute/unmute audio channels?
Fading audio in/out?
That would be helpful as well. I have two scenes, in Scene A the audio levels should be normal, but in Scene B I would want the audio levels to be at 50%. Transitioning back to Scene A, the audio levels go back to normal.
TLDR: I'm displaying an instant replay, but I want the main game volume to be reduced when playing said replay
Not aware of any way to automate that outside of obs commander & websocket scripts.
wow OBS command seems quite good - this may do the trick, though finding a native solution would be better, for obvious reasons
oh... wow. So this thing lets me create a bat script and then I can just execute it with a keypress.
This has... so much potential
Yes 
NOOBS Cmdr to make it userfriendly if need be.
OBS command > websocket > send information. Scene changes, show/hide, audio level changes - you name it.
Anything Websocket can do, you can do in a script. Just a matter of knowing a bit of json from time to time if NOOBS Cmdr/OBS command doesn't directly support it 🙂
tt2468 is working on a 5.x release atm that'll completely rewrite a lot of things from what I gather. So that's pretty
🙂
Hi,
I need to use repetitions for a basketball game, is there a plugin to put repetitions or some way? Thank you
Thanks Exeldro, I had a bit of an idiot brain fart there. I'm still having an issue with OBS Crashing occasionally while I'm using instant replay. Any tips?
How do i get rid of virtual camera on discord
!vcamremove
To uninstall VirtualCam on Windows:
- Navigate to:
C:\Program Files\obs-studio\data\obs-plugins\win-dshow - Right click
virtualcam-uninstall.bat, and Run as Administrator.
If you have OBS installed in a different directory (or in portable mode), right click your OBS shortcut and choose "Open file location" to track down the location of the obs-studio directory.

Yo guys how do i connect my camera to obs
Hi everyone .. im hoping someone can help on this.
What setting is affecting those breaks?
You see, my videos are having those breaking pixels.
vsync most likely
Someone pls help me I can't download the app on my phone
I have to do this on mobil and xbox
There’s not a mobile version of OBS Studio. It’s only available for Windows, MacOS, and Linux.
So I have a script automatically generate a VLC source with a playlist of videos during my stream (sports highlights) that I need to show at the end of each period.
This works fine, except that between each of the 4~ second clips there is like 1 frame of the vlc source outputting nothing, causing it to look horrible whilst transitioning. Any ideas how to fix that?
@weak escarp is there a parameter in transform for Move Transition to neglect a position?
So for example not supplying a Y (so it keeps its Y) and only move it to the new X?
As in; regardless of where the object is vertically - it'll always move horizontally to whereever is set.
I guess you can do relative movement? but it wont allow a specific set coordinate - it'll be relative. And as always - if something is fired twice the relative will keep going.
anyone know if there is a plugin to stream facecam to a different rtmp video stream id?
Unfortunately that is not an option yet
Hello there. Is there any tool/plugin to import bit of scenes collections and also one for verify the json files generated by OBS Studio?
source copy by exeldro (the guy above) does copy pasting of scenes/sources.
Thanks! Very good tool, but unfortunately it requires the scene to open/loaded but mine is crashing my OBS
You can't open your scene collection at all; even if you start from a blank scene collection?
I tested it from a newly created one
OBS has this issue where it'll hang (not crash) indefinitely if you try to switch from one large/medium size Scene Collection, to another medium/large sized scene collection.
The fix there is to switch to an empty Scene Collection first.
Do you get a crash (error) or does it just hang indefinitely?
Hum! Let me try it.
"Gdk-Message: 01:33:41.227: obs: Fatal IO error 13 (Permissão negada) on X server :99.0.
Gdk-Message: 01:33:41.234: obs: Fatal IO error 11 (Recurso temporariamente indisponível) on X server :99.0."
You using OBS Studio?
Yes! I am trying OBS Studio RPM version and now Flatpak. all started with NVFBC and now seems to have to do with pipewire, since I removed (at least I think) every trace of NVFBC
I'd suggest you head over to #linux-support and ask there - while giving them a crash log and as much info as you can.
It's not really something for #plugins-and-tools to deal with. 🙂
Yep. Thanks.
Hello I wanted to know if there is a way I can allow audio to pass on zoom while I open OBS INTERROGATED CAMERA on zoom , it doesn’t pass audio so if anyone can help please let me know
- Install VB-Audio CABLE. (A reboot is not required)
- In OBS Studio, go to Settings > Audio and select "CABLE Input" as your Monitoring Device
- Go to Edit > Advanced Audio Properties and enable Audio Monitoring for the audio sources you'd like to stream to Discord.
- In Discord, in Voice & Video settings, select "CABLE Output" instead of your microphone under "Input device".
Now anything you monitor in OBS Studio will be streamed to Discord. Similar steps will work with other conferencing apps, such as Microsoft Teams or Slack.
Is it possible to create a video filter plugin in pure python? Or would I have to build a shared library wrapper to call my python code?
Hello,
I was trying to remove a plugin I just installed and my search has shown only one resolution.
Can you confirm please.
"Solution: Uninstall/reinstall:"
(trying to remove DroidCam OBS plugin)
You can just delete the files from the plugins directory.
Which will prevent it from loading, but not sure if it leaves any other data around.
You'd need to contact the developer.
Where can i find the plugins directory?
(i'm returning to PC after years without so i'm a bit lost )
I just found the application by typing in the search "droid" in Apps was was able to successfully uninstall it
Thank you for your time on the matter
Great, glad it's sorted
New to OBS? Check out our 4 step quickstart guide.
Want to learn even more? Check out our in-depth overview.
If you'd prefer to learn with videos, check out these guides made by the community:
For a guide on the various sources and how they work in OBS Studio, see our guide here: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Sources-Guide
@steep orchid That version of OBS is quite old, I'd recommend installing the latest version as a first step.
!download
OBS Studio can be downloaded right from the OBS Project website: https://obsproject.com/download
the lastest release version still the same, so I tried this version
You'll want to hop over to the #windows-support channel then.
And probably grab a log file for them to take a look.
Thanks

OBS Studio has an NDI plugin available, which can be found here: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/528/
thanks
That was deleted a while back because it's included as part of OBS.
JUst post a log file please

@lofty garden You need to either add it as a browser source or use something like kapchat
A browser source? will it put the Twitch chat in stream
Correct, I'd recommend checkout out kapchat as it's specifically designed to do that.
ok will try thanks
Ok so I got the chat in window thank you sooooo much
How do i see it while I play
do it need 2 screens?
or is there an option im not seeing
If you have only one monitor, you won't be able to see chat. Use your phone or tablet to monitor chat.
Anyone available
Right, be sure to keep the audio muted there so your mic doesn't pick it up as that might cause an echo.
Anyone available I need help

There's 549357848395743895074389543 different alert services you can use.
Up to you to decide which one meets your needs.
where do i find them
I'm assuming you're using twitch, so just google for something like "twitch alerts provider" and you'll find a bunch
ok cool thanks bro
Hey friends
I'm sure this has been asked, but I couldn't find anything upon a search
Does OBS support/have a plugin for selective recording? This was the greatest feature of SLOBS that I miss dearly
How can I build obs-websocket with obs? It needs obs.lib and obs-frontend-api.lib.
Is there a way to send Keyboard shortcuts via VoiceMacro with obs-websocket (I Have tried sending Virtual Keys didn't work)
Or even a desktop Shortcut
you can try obscommand.exe as intermediary if you can launch executables with your tool
!virtualcam
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.
!ununstalvirtulcam
this command does not exist
Thank you for updates* 
Background removal plug-in the best plug-in
what plugin is that? 👀
Cheers! Anyone familiar with NDI tools ? specifically NDI 5
Are there any obs setting to improve audio

is there a way to add background to the droidcam for my iphone.
hi guys
Is there a Plugin that can add extra filter options to the Mask/Blend option? Need one that just applies the picture, doesn't darken or do anything to it :S
where can i find how to install the alertbox plugin i was using steamlabs obs and recently downloaded obs studio 27.0
You can use streamlabs alertbox browser source on OBS Studio. Just head to OBS Studio and add browser source then copy link from streamlabs for the alertbox to the browser path.
Ty
@elfin nova looks like you want dynamic mask from streamFX
in this case, you'd need to add this image as image source, then add a dynamic mask filter to it, and choose specitalizer as the mask source
I fixed it by going back to 27.0.1, thanks to Bavario's suggestion
Hey all, what would be a great plugin for background removal?
(non green screen background removal)
Far and away, like completely blows away every piece of software in the land is... getting a green screen.
Like nothing else comes close to a proper chroma key and some decent lighting
Thanks. I've a green wall. I wanted to know the plugin for background removal.
(not chroma key, which I use when I'm near the wall)
Problem is that they all suck balls. It's just a matter of degree
If you have an nvidia GPU, use nvidia broadcast.
I am having issues with StreamElements AlertBox thru OBS.Live not showing up during stream when someone subs on YouTube, but when I test it out manually it works fine
im having an issue where game capture just black screens with csgo?
Im in -unrtusted and -allow_third_party_software
so i don't understand why its not working
Using faceit?
Doe anyone know the Spectralizer here? Need help with something 🙂
yes
Then that's the issue.
Faceit is not yet compatible with 27.1.1 from what we know.
We already contacted them to get OBS whitelisted again.
O.O oof
My spectralizer is doing this, wanna get rid of the white and make it perfectly shaped in that red box. Any ideas?
We don't support any of those things here, unfortunately. You'll need to reach out to Streamelements for more assistance.
That's funny, cause I am a part of their Discord and they told me to come here. oof
They shouldn't.
They said it was a OBS issue
They replace our Browser Source with their own.
Which means we cannot support it, even if we wanted to.
Do they not know that about their own plugin?
Anything related to browser source or their integrations need to be handled by them with their plugin installed.
Anyone? Need this sorting before tomorrow :)
Does anyone know why the vst plugin "ReaStream" doesn't show up in OBS?
Ok so far so good, just ain't sure how to resize my Spectralizer's image to fit the Red Box
Whenever I chroma key the pink background away everything in the Spectralizer turns black
Any ideas? :S
@elfin nova why can't you just edit the image instead? open with gimp, use "color to alpha" to replace pink with transparent
When it goes transparent it goes black instead
@elfin nova use a streamFX dynamic mask, then
install streamFX, add the image as image source, then add a dynamic mask filter to the image source, choosing the spectralizer as source
Link? :S
the exe installer
Into the OBS file?
what?
i forgot how to use source mirror
*i mean dynamic mask
you shoudl now see a new filter, "dynamic mask"
what do you want to accomplish, exactly? want the image to move the same way that spectralizer moves?
I want the PNG to be a PNG
it already is?
Look at my screenshots
Its got a background
This is how its supose to look, but the Spectralizer keeps adding a background
i'm not sure i understood, adding an image source as-is is trivial, just drag and drop
The image is a mask on the Spectralizer
No

The idea is the image is on 1 bar of the Spectralizer and it "animates" my character to speak
Its a single bar
does that mean you have 2 images, one with mouth open, one with mouth closed?
i'll need the 2nd image, then
i know what you're referring to, i've seen this before
The Spectralizer's image has a background, cannot key it out or anything
i need that 2nd image
this looks doable, i'll try to replicate your setup
The eyes are separate in another file, so no need to worry about those
If you put a colour behind that, does it have a black box?
Chiyo working overtime 
phew, i feel more competent now
@elfin nova wanted to see a color source behind it?
How did you do that? 😮
now i need to write how to do this:
This is what it should look like, there is a background already for it in my scenes
1 add both images as image source
2 add a new spectralizer source with all of these properties:
Wait what?
are you having trouble with that?
Sorry this is a bit confusing
k, follow along
first, make a new scene, and add both images as an "image" source
(let me know when you're done)
Lemme just do something real quick
ping me when done
Chiyo resident spectralizer and mask expert 
now make a new Spectralizer source, and give it all of these properties:
(except audio source, of course, yours will be different)
next, open Filters for the Spectralizer source, and add a new Crop/Pad filter, set Right crop to 100
Oki
next, open Filters for the "mouth open" image, and add a new Dynamic Mask
choose your Spectralizer here
Its not there
i thought you used the executable installer for streamfx, then restarted obs?
I did and nothing appeared :S
Might be because I ain't on the latest update for OBS? I'm on 27.0.1, I ain't updating it as yesterday my Spectralizers broke
could it be that you have more than one obs-studio install? streamFX will autodetect and install in the folder where you last installed obs-studio
could you help me chyio?
i'd rather not take too many support requests at this time, i need to do a few things for myself, too
ok
it seems that zip and 7z releases are available, too, try manually extracting to your obs-studio folder
and you're sure you're running obs-studio from this folder?
(you might have more than 1 install)
Its the right version in the top corner
go 2 folders up, go to bin, 64bit, and run obs64.exe from there
streamfx is not installed
I don't see a Bin Folder
i don't think so, no
Got the Zip, where does it go?
Ngl I have no idea where that file is on my PC
you don't know where you have obs-studio installed? open the Start menu, search for obs, right-click the result, "open containing folder" or something
This is where it took me
aaaa
could you post that screenshot again?
it doesn't load, can't see anything on preview
anyways, try uninstalling and reinstalling obs-studio, then run the streamfx installer again
(this will not delete settings and scenes, unless you choose to delete them)
I'd rather not :S Since I am not confident with my PC
Maybe I installed StreamFX to the wrong place?
it automatically detects where obs-studio is installed and installs there without asking, but if you installed obs-studio multiple times, or moved after installing, it will install in the wrong place
also, it can't be that hard not to click "user settings"
Its not that, my PC is tempermental, likes to crash when doing some tasks :S Its been doing it more recently
So lemme see if I can find where the Spectralizer is installed 🙂 That must be where StreamFX must go too ye?
yes
I am over cautious with this PC lol
Sorry this is taking a while
Is this the right place? 🙂
Here?
are you sure you got the correct streamfx release?
you were supposed to get streamfx-windows-2019-0.11.0.0a3-g23207d04.7z
and ti contains 2 folders, obs-plugins and data, both of which would need to be extracted
So what about the Spectralizer in those old files?
it should be installed, no need to touch it
select both folders from 7-zip, and drag and drop into the obs-studio folder
continue
Now boot OBS?
yes
Its installed 🙂
back to step 3
I've forgotten :S
check Filters for Spectralizer source, does it have a Crop/Pad filter?
now open Filters for the "mouth open" image, and add a Dynamic Mask
choose Spectralizer as source
Oki
scroll down, under Alpha Channel, set Base Value to 0, Alpha Input Value to 1
i think that's it, it should now rapidly blab when audio device catches sound
tweak spectralizer if you feel the need to
It doesn't look right :S
what doesn't look right?
did you forget to change spectralizer settings?
Yea, but its not acting like the other spectralizers I use, which is just a solid square
wait, no, not scale boost, but scale size
I'd rather not have it flickering like this :S Wanted it to act like the other ones I have
screenshot their properties?
On the Spectralizer?
yes
Only the Crop Pad one
i get this issue with obs streamelements live chat dock.
no, not on the one we're troubleshooting, but on the ones you're currently using
I don't understand what's wrong with it 😦
ya, me neither
is it supposed to turn solid white when spoken into and solid transparent when not spoken into?
Yea
Its not meant to flicker like mad
And when I ain't speaking, no noise, its going mad
needing help fixing this issue with the obs.live plugin
What do you recommend?
try scale size 0.6, gravity 0.15, then tweak scale boost until you like it (i'm at 2.44)
we can always crop the unwanted parts (the ones that stay solid white)
Can I copy the filters from my other spectralizers? This one just seems buggy af
yes, and if the other spectralizers work, you can also duplicate the sources
Yea
Its working
My god I hate the Spectralizer and love it so much XD
Thanks Chiyo! Now to copy this over to the main scene
if you forget the current settings of dynamic mask, you might have a lot of trouble re-creating the same configuration, so maybe try playing around with it to get an idea of how it works and what it does, it can create a lot more fun effects
can anyone point me to documentation for this new feature:
Added a feature to browser sources to allow limited control over OBS, which must be explicitly granted by the user [gxalpha]
thank you!
oh that's quite limited, I was hoping we'd have a similar feature set to obs-websockets to some degree
if you need something as advanced as obs-websocket, you're better off using obs-websocket
We do plan on adding a few extra features in the next version: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-browser/pull/312
thanks for the PR, I make Better Points (if you've heard of it) and we currently control OBS via obs-websockets, but the idea of our users just being able to run a browser source instead of keeping the tab open was exciting. We just need change scene/sourceproperties/filters etc
Adding that kind of control is a little dangerous to expose to just any web-page, so we need some time to sort out making it safe and secure, this is basically a V0 for now.
of course, makes a lot of sense
I think we'll continue down the avenue of making a plugin
source properties and filters likely won't be something you can change with the browser source as that's super advanced
changing scenes is definitely planned though
Thanks for the info 😀
i need the elgato plugin
that doesnt exist
why doesn't obs not have it in the drop down for tools
how do i use the stream deck with obs my stream deck app is asking for me to launch obs
the elgato plugin is installed automatically by installing the elgato stream deck software
then launch obs
if the plugin missing, reinstall the stream deck software
i get frustrated if i can't figure it out
yeah Elgato don't document this very well
i was looking on the forum for it. thats why i said it didnt exist
didnt know it auto installed
the machines are learning...
There are times I feel I know more about the Stream Deck the support at Elgato.
Hey I installed NDI plugin but its not working even after restarting my pc
https://github.com/Palakis/obs-ndi/releases
this is the only one right?
hello everybody, just a little questions about the export from microsoft edge to streamelements. This connection is not save. I got this error on my screen. How can i fix this issue? regards Isabell
Does the plugin not show up in your OBS or is just the transmission itself the issue?
yes it doesnt show up in obs
A current log file is required to help fix your issue. Please post a link to your current log file.
- In OBS select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File.
- Click Copy URL and then paste the link here.
Contact Streamelements about this, this has nothing to do with OBS
they have their own Discord
- Mismatched Sample Rates
- Unparseable OBS Version (module)
- No Output Session
- No Scenes/Sources
that's not a full log
Let me reinstall 👀
Beside that, obs-ndi is not loaded, if you have OBS installed in a custom location you may need to point the NDI plugin installer there
oh
I dunno if this has been asked before, but is there a way to trigger DSK off and back on again between scenes? Mainly for when using the James Bond Meme or Twitch Disconection.
DSKs purpose is to be visible on all scenes, usually used for lower thirds etc stuff that is visible despite what scene you're on.
Is there a problem with setting the hotkey to enable/disable the specific dsk?
I don't want it on when the bond scene comes on, or the twitch crash scene as it just ruins the gag.
I'm not sure I understand your specific workflow.
Look up Andilippi's Bond Meme on Youtube. You'll see what I mean.
If you are using lioranboard or streamer.bot, I'm sure you could add an action before those things show to hide the dsk
And then have the dsk then show again once those are done
I'm using both.
just make sure your twitch disconnection dsk tab is the most right dsk, that way it goes over other dsk
I hadn'r thought about adding it as a DSK. Thanks for that.
Hello, i am not able to zoom out and zoom in my content on obs screen which is connected from my ipad.. Kindly suggest
yep coming in here trying to get your dsk set up again exeldro lol
Does csgo work with OBS on faceit?
yes
it does now?
that's what i've heard, yes
I love you
@fickle pulsar You need to capture screen, not game
Anyone know how to trigger a hotkey by name if the hotkey is registered by a lua script? For example, I have the hotkey up_count_hotkey (confirmed in scene collection json), but that does not work as expected:
Error with command "TriggerHotkeyByName,hotkeyName=up_count_hotkey": hotkey not found
It works with hotkeys created by native plugins, but seemingly not for hotkeys created by lua scripts.
if I do screen not game capture I dont have 240 Hz though
Thank valve
!csgo
Valve has implemented a Trusted mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. Read more in their announcement post. Additionally, they have no plans on allowing OBS in Trusted mode.
We recommend running the game in either windowed or borderless fullscreen and using a Window Capture source instead.
Alternately, you can launch the game with -allow_third_party_software .
I did both of those
it was with Faceit Anti-Cheat and the new obs update
I just checked though and it captures with game capture 😄
thanks for confirming
I was going to verify last night but required turning off Hyper-V so I didn't bother
wait a minute
im stupid
i had screen capture on at the same time of testing...
so Faceit has to allow obs still...
im sorry
its not working for me..?
Did you update both the things in the message I linked?
I did both updates, I had to re-add the game capture source
I am having plug in issues, I enabled the Spotify sync on my twitch page but I can not get Spotify to play on the OBS Live now I have everything set to my interface I have which is a Presonus AudioBox usb 96, I checked the drivers and it's all up to date I need help bad ??
where can I get help troubleshooting an OBS Websockets problem? Mine is working fine but a friend trying to make it work in Windows / has disabled antivirus but it won't connect?
They have a Discord server themselves, probably best to ask there
invite code is 58Y4CS4T
Who is "they"?
The creators of obs-websocket
Aha....new to Discord, how do I get there?

Any tips on how to install a plugin on a Mac? I got it to work on my windows computer but can’t get it to show up on my Mac.
Are there any plugins/scripts/option to show live stream uptime on overlay? I've found only ones which are like timers, push the button and it starts counting or such which get timer start trigger from going live itself but they are not getting info from OBS itself.
the problem there might be as simple as obs not tracking that data to begin with

Hey @weak escarp
I've gone back to messing with the Source Record plugin, and after 27.1.1 it is somehow magically (yay?) not breaking my scene collection anymore.
There's a few UX things I wanna list here in case you at some point want to update the plugin.
-
Filter Settings not updating settings.
If you go into the Source Record filter you've added, and do any change (change replay buffer duration, folder path etc) it does not update the settings. You're forced to hide filter/show filter to get the changes to work. At least on my end. -
Making any change resets the hotkey for the replay buffer
Goes without saying that having to set, or rather remember to set, the hotkey again after you go in and change the path, bitrate or buffer duration and so forth - without having changed the filter's name - is something that might've been a slight oversight.
Other than that, it seems to so far be, just, working. I am of course a little worried about performance and such using the old NVENC, and am unsure of how many instances of NVENC you can run like this. But doing 2 POVs so far in testing I haven't run into any issues.

is there any plugin for just capturing the video output of zoom? I don't wnat to use Display capture or Window Capture in OBS since they capture everything on Zoom like chatbox and Zoom meeting controls. I do not want to capture the catbox or other things other than only the video output of the zoom
is it possible
?

Hi

Dats huuuuge
Only the best for you.

Not sure if I'm in the right area to ask this but I recently just got a ps5 and use the elgato hd60s+ for capture and a50 for my headset. I bought the adapter for the a50 but I'm having issues with my game audio as it's just going absolutely berzerk with the audio. Any tips?
If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!

You will likely need to create a new profile. This happens when an encoder gets unavailable.
At the top select profile > new
Keep in mind that you will need to set your settings again
Scenes and Sources will remain though

@weak escarp Sorry, have to redact my previous statement. I find myself unable to boot after having set up the Source Replay filter as per last time.
Removing that scene collection OBS boots
Having that scene collection OBS boots backend, but no GUI ever appears.
Removing that scene collection, OBS boots
Importing that Scene Collection, OBS then hangs indefinitely.
Really sad because I was well happy thinking I finally had it working. I'll spend my Sunday trying to see if I can take my Scene Collection and strip it bit by bit to see if I can find any clues at all as to why adding a Source Record filter stops OBS from functioning.
Hope you're having a good weekend.

thanks
Two identical OBS (Copy paste) - plugins and all.
Two identical Scene collections.
PC 1: Source Record hangs OBS//Doesn't launch GUI.
PC 2: No issues.

How the heck am I supposed to figure out why it breaks, if it's only locally on a specific PC.
And without any sort of error log or message what so ever.
Don't think it's related, but sitting here trying various things to see if I can narrow anything down at all and this crash occurred on trying to boot, with the source added.
Some lua script's tick function is causing the graphics thread to crash.
Only using Advanced Timer (Believe jim?), Coundown (jim), refresh-browser (Exeldro) & source-toggler (Exeldro).
And it only happens occasionally. Is strange.
Not as strange as two identical setups only hanging/not launch gui on one PC caused by a plugin, though.
Now there's a brain teaser for ya.
Can someone help? for my OBS it doesn't show me the card where u can access the settings, start streaming, and recording. How do I fix this?
You can manage your docks from the View > Docks menu.
You can toggle docks on and off, or lock or unlock docks to prevent moving and editing.
You can also reset the UI from this menu to return your docks to their original state (View > Docks > Reset UI).
Thank you!
@weak escarp Editing the .json and removing "volume": 1 allows my OBS to boot again. Granted the filter isn't working (albeit still visible, now called __unnamed0000).
There is driver/audio differences between the two PCs.
does anyone know why my obs isent showing own3d plugin >>>???
6 hours intro trying to decipher this, getting no where closer to anything logical 
I fucking hate programs.
Non of the testing I've done makes any logical sense at all.
Reduce complexity and change only one factor at a time.
I've found what's causing it.
Ye, that's what I've been doing for almost 7 hours.
Just trying to get as accurate for Exeldro as I can.
Which unfortunately requires me to test if it kills OBS or not, over and over.
@weak escarp So oh lord mighty I finally found the conflict.
Reproduceable 100% on both PCs
The script 'advanced-timer.lua' in conjunction with your 'Source Record' (on any scene) using these settings.
Changing 'Activation Mode' to 'Start timer on Activation' means you can no longer boot OBS//It hangs indefinitely if you try to change to a scene collection that has this combination while having OBS open.
I swear I'm the only one to run into random *** like this.
Reason it wasn't crashing on your PC with my Scene Collection was that the Script doesn't load (even if listed) due to the script being external.
--
So, anyone know good alternative start/stop count-up timer scripts 
@trim hatch CC: in on the above, since it's your script 
PS: I removed all plugins for this except for Source Record
The more niche you get in how much you run and how you run it prob makes the complexity harder to solve
is the source record plugin not compatible with elgato capture cards?
@wary wasp is this log bloat due to websocket verbose logging?

We were requested to prevent debug mode from persisting on reload so in v5 it has to be manually enabled by a flag or in the properties now
I will try and replicate it with the lua script on my system later today to investigate the deadlock
I'm with you. I hate computers. I've been having them before most of you were born.
🤣
The fact that major computer systems don't crash constantly is a miracle tbh
I've never worked with one that didn't.
My OBS has been crashing when I go to exit the application. I'm 99% sure it's the ShaderFilter plugin that's causing it. I don't do anything complicated with it, I just have vignetting shaders on my scenes but when I go to exit OBS the window says, "Not responding" and the application doesn't close until I force it through Windows.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues with the ShaderFilter plugin?
A crash log is required to investigate the cause of your issue. Please upload the last crash log.

Hey, I'm totally new to this streaming stuff
I'm looking for a way to host a video conference on Zoom meeting via NDI, streaming with OBS
Is there any resources (vid, guides,etc) that can help?
To clarify, I'm looking to create a stream that looks something like this, where I can freely displace the webcam(?) locations and switch between layouts during stream
and no, I aim specifically for zoom meetings, and not zoom rooms
@gleaming coral As far as I am aware, Zoom doesn't allow per-participant output for video/audio
So there's not really a whole lot you can do.
Most people who are doing that kind of thing will use something completely custom, https://vdo.ninja/, or Skype as Skype has NDI output for individual callers.
Ah thank you very much
@hard jay sorry for pinging but do you happen to know if Microsoft Teams support this
Not that I'm aware of, no.
A lot of times in youtube videos and such, people will just record their own audio/video locally and then send it in to the editors after the fact
Not so useful for live, though.
I believe Teams did get NDI support https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/use-ndi-in-meetings
I have not tried it out, but I just remember seeing that there was some implementation added
does anyone know of a plugin for OBS that greet new viewers when they enter the channel?
sounds like what people use chatbots for 🙂
hi
please don't actually do that, it's beyond creepy and makes me want to not join chat @sweet stratus
I've actually heard a lot of people say the same. I personally dont care about it one way or the other, but I can understand how some people dont like it
Are you talking about the cat thing that greets people on your channel?
That is to say, when someone enters your chat with their first post and the cat says Hello
when someone enters the channel, without writing in the chat
oh.. yeah, that is a bit, creepy. I would feel kind of monitored 😅 I was thinking of the "thank you for following" kind of message
Viewers that haven't made their presence known shouldn't be called out. Some people like to casually chill/watch
yeah, i agree. that's super-creep.
anyone have any suggestions for a kind of live looping application for windows? Something where a person can create vocal loops on the fly?
TBH the only program that I know of that will recognize a viewer is in your channel is Stream Avatars, and that's if you have it selected to viewers. However, it doesn't greet the viewers. It just adds a new avatar to your screen
it did show viewer screennames above the avatars but I deactivated that for the purpose of not scaring away people who just want to peep in and that's it
thx you i like stream avatars
There are definitely ways to greet new viewers. I just personally don't think that's a good idea.
Pretty sure it can easily be done with something like streamer.bot
Aye, lurkers enjoy being anon and will speak up if they are comfy to do so

Anyone know how to stream video with overlay graphics that show data?
Like live data from sensors or a script
Depends completely on what format your sensor software can output
Well duh
Is there a plugin or something that could pick a random scene from a group?
Like, you switch to a scene, and there's a group of scenes in that scene, and it picks one and ignores the others?
Advanced Scene Switcher might do, don't know for sure tho: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/advanced-scene-switcher.395/
It seems to have it! At least, I found scene groups which have a random type but... I don't know how to actually use them. Is there documentation or anything for it?
The common way to do this is to have your data periodically written to a .txt file that OBS can read as text and show on screen.
That's pretty archaic 🤨
Well feel free to write a webapp that does it nicely and add it as browser source to OBS 😉
It's pretty easy if you use something like touch portal to pull the data and write it for you. I use that for a bunch of things that display on my screen while I stream.
Hey OBS users! So I've been looking around for a bit and trying different stuff, and it all seems much more complicated than I thought it'd be. But I'd like to add a " today's wins and losses" counter where I can add a win or loss with hotkeys. Every guide I've looked at only show you how to do it through commands through the chat or streamelements chatbot etc. Is the way that I want it work not possible? Any thoughts?
Some folks in here probably have a much better solution but I would just read from text file and use a simple program to +1 to the counter in the text file then map that to a hot key.
Has anyone found a fix for the source record plugin not working ? When I enable it, it causes my capture card to stop working and my usb devices to not work for 2 seconds, then it works for 2 seconds, then it does not work for 2 seconds and makes my pc unusable.
Do you have any recommendations of such a "simple" program? 🙂
is there a plugin for motion tracking an image perhaps ?
I've been trying to setup a Media Source with a hotkey to change the 'speed' so I can effectively add slow motion (with audio), but I cant seem to find anything that will get this desired effect.
the use case is fairly straight forward, replay buffer captures a small 10s clip, I switch to scene to play that clip and then hit another hotkey to change the playback speed of media source.
any ideas fellas?
There are no hotkeys to change playback speed.
I figured, searched and experimented with a bunch of plugins, not found anything that can do this. thought it was a simple thing 😂 guess not.
just wondering if anyone knows of a plugin that might be able to do it
ive tried dynamic delay, but that doesnt do audio
Updating my ryzen motherboard to the most recent bios version that was not windows 11 fixed the isuse
Motherboard BIOS don't have Operating systems
that was the newest version of the bios, I figured it would work with windows 10 as it just states "windows 11 support" but I could not get it to work.
So the F34 version of the bios ended up working
When you see "Windows 11 Support" it means it is adding Windows 11 Support, not instantly dropping windows 10
But for BIOS version, it's sometimes better to not touch it if it ain't broken
Is there any plugins thru which i can use two OBS as master and slave mode. Meaning if I change scene in Master OBS, same change has to happen in slave OBS also.
@fast carbon i don't think so, no
the most you can do is bind both to the same hotkey, or control both instances via websockets, but that will cause varying degrees of desync (up to ~50ms with hotkeys, a lot more with websocket)
My OBS keeps freezing on exit whenever I use a shader from the ShaderFilter plugin
does removing or it fix the issue? If so double check that its up to date
Is there any plug in to read comments on obs ??
facebook?
Yes
i don't believe so
My alerts are not working as well 😦
As in the Shaderfilter? Yeah, just triple-checked... The last time it was updated was in March 19, 2019
WebSocket requests can easily be performed within a single frame. The actual latency of a simple request is generally sub-1ms
@wary wasp i had much higher and very inconsistent latency with obscommand, maybe i did something wrong
So I've downloaded the obs ndi 4.9 plugin but it doesnt seem to show up in my sources
how can I fix this?
!ndi
OBS Studio has an NDI plugin available, which can be found here: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/528/
make sure you use the installer
yes I did
most common issue is that the OBS you are using is not in the same location as you choose to install it. Double check that its the right location. By default it should populate with the correct path automatically
hm I'll try that
That's because obscommand has to load, process the command line flags, open a new websocket connection, authenticate, then perform the actual request. In my simpleobsws library, I'm able to perform a request in under 1.2ms 95% of the time (provided that it is already connected and identified)
What I mean to say is that as long as the client software is capable, obs-websocket can casually achieve extremely high accuracy requests
@wary wasp interesting, i'll take note of this (though i doubt i'd be able to use such tools myself)
My guess is that most of the delay induced by obscommand comes from the program actually being loaded
yeah that was exactly the problem lol
thanks dude
it often is, nice work 😊
hey, any1 here using NDI plugin?
Plenty of people use it, just ask your question 🙂
my gamin pc has a 6900xt, and my second pc that i use it on my living room for a few games and media center has a 3080
i want to use nvenc encoder but i use my 6900xt to play
because twitch bandwidth is a joke, so the crappy AMF... well...
and youtube is a very bad streaming platform
it always transcodes
can i use ndi to encode, or re encode, the footage?
Yes it's possible to use it like that but be aware that NDI will still have a slight performance impact on the sending computer
Yes
what is "slight"?
a bit of CPU hit
i have a 5900x
probably invisible
exactly
it's a very fast codec, just wanted to note that it's not free
also probably stupid question, but isn't the 3080 pretty much identical in performance to a 6900XT so a GPU swap may be a viable solution?
its not a stupid question but there r 2 reasons i wont do that
if you try the NDI route, make sure all PCs are on gigabit ethernet
i have a very specific monitor (samsung c49rg90) and it runs way better with amd, i tested with a few nvidia and amd
2nd, i have fully WC pc. so it would b a pain in the a** to swap
yes my network is gigabit
this monitor does go well with gsync. and if i play HDR, nvidia does ghosting all over the place
i mean not nvidia, but the monitor lock some feature and it does the ghosting
ah yeah, heard a lot of issues with that ultrawide model
well if it works for you, go for it
yes, i was asking cause i thought using ndi i would send the footage to the 2nd pc and i would have to stream from there
but i want to send the image back and control things from here
i mean i can control obs with websocks
all this cause twitch sucks, damn...
why a limit of 6mbps? this is good for nothing....
anyway, tks
Can i ask what is plugind and tool for
This channel is a place to discuss third party plugins and tools for OBS.
may i ask what is that
Third party plugins are programs made by the community that weren't part of the original OBS.
To add to Bavario's explanation, you can find examples of plugins and tools here: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/
ty guys <3
Hello, I am using LetsView to screen mirror my iPad and when I plug it into OBS, I noticed there’s a black blank section and I was wondering if there was a way to crop or remove it?
!crop @compact wave
@compact wave
To crop sources in OBS Studio, first reset the source to its default size by clicking on it and pressing ctrl+r. Then hold the alt key and drag the red box around the source you wish to crop. The sides will turn green to indicate they are cropped. Note that the preview must be unlocked in order to do this.
is there any plugin that allow chat command to trigger OBS hotkey?
it seems like touch portal is only for twitch but not for youtube
@north sail i think i was able to convince lioranboard to do this, but it's rather complicated and i forgot the exact details on how it's done; after setting up lioranboard i created a button that launches obscommand, which in turn triggers the desired command (or hotkey) in obs-studio via websockets, but i don't remember what i had to do to make it react to twitch chat messages
But I don't want it react to twitch chat tho, I want it to react to youtube chat
that's harder, i'm not aware of any way to make a chat bot for youtube that would be able to run things based on what's written in chat
I know streamlab chatbot + OBS remote parametet can do that, but OBS remote parameters doesn't support filter control.
Basically I want chat to control audio fade in fade out. And the only way to do that in OBS is through filter.
If there is a way I can fade in/out audio without filter then that'd be perfect
Like auto fade in/out audio when I turn the source on/off
would you be able to do it with websocket? https://github.com/Palakis/obs-websocket/blob/4.x-current/docs/generated/protocol.md#setsourcefiltervisibility
looks like it doesn't allow arbitrary websocket commands, only a set of pre-defined ones
My other solution is scene change
Cause scene change do have audio fade in/out
But the problem is when I am in the gaming scene, I dont want the scene change command active
So I want the command only active on specific scene
Which probably is even more difficult lol
@north sail in that case, you can duplicate your scene and switch between the original and the duplicate when needed
Yes but the problem is I want it chat control
Basically the idea I have is to let the chat in public to control the BGM
I can do it now with just source on and off
But the audio cut off very suddenly
i don't think i have the competence to help with that, sorry
maybe try asking again later?

Hi there 🙂 I have been having a problem last couple of weeks - I use OBS-NDI. I have 2 machines - a gaming machine and a streaming machine. All overlays etc are on the streaming machine. Only the game is on gaming machine. I am having a problem with there being a lag between the 2. Normally There is about 1/2 second delay between the 2 but for the last couple of weeks that delay grows as time goes on. The sound kind of stutters from time to time and the delay grows. The worst the delay has been is about 15 seconds. Obviously not very good at all. Any ideas please ?
Asking in here cos nobody had a clue in #windows-support and suggested to try on here
I'm having the same issue on Linux with NDI Camera on iPhone. How about using obs-ndi 4.8.0 with setting Sync parameter to Internal?
According to NDI's document, it is suggested to use NTP. And if you have NTP installed on your local network, streams can be synchronized between multiple machines with very high precision.
I'm not familiar with Windows but maybe Windows does not adjust time drift?
I thought that was just for timecode and syncing (post) convenience. If you happen to have a link to the pdf/site, I would love to read 
I'm reading a document NDI SDK Documentation.pdf bundled in NDI SDK for Linux.
Basically, yes. There is a newer version.
I see what you're referring to, thank you 🙂
@hard jay Sevir left a review where he says "Requires approval to use so I can't verify wherever it's good or bad." then why he still leaves a review then if he does not know if it's good or bad? Also it's kinda the same as leaving a review under the White House on google and giving it one star saying "because I can't enter it".
It can be that people don't like the sign up process, but that doesn't mean our whole product is worth one star...
That is their opinion though
Having a signup can be a no-go for some people (due to privacy concerns for example), and make the product considerably worse for them
Well but if the product is considerably worse for him/her is still unknown because he did not pass the sign up so he still has not reviewed the whole product
It is indeed their opinion.
The signup is part of the product.
They didn't like your sign up process.
yeah just one part. the product is so much more...
It would be enough to make me not use it either.
I don't know that I'd leave a 1 star review, but if you gate entry to your free product behind a bunch of sign up and data collection, I would not be interested.
The review is valid. If you think the user reviewed unfairly, feel free to reply to their comment and try to get more information on how you can improve the signup
I do not expect any response from the reviewer as he does not seem to be very active
C’est la vie, I suppose then.
Well getting access is not really data collection from our end or something. People just have to ask access that's all
If I download a plugin, I just want it to work. I don't want to have to ask anyone for anything.
If there's no data collection why are people required to ask?
Seems fairly suspicious to me :P
Either way I'm not removing the review just because you don't like it, sorry!
Well because we got a big load of users since our resource is getting more poplular, not only because of the OBS forums. Our hosting was not really able to handle it so we now only allow users that really seem to be interested
Anyone can get access but they just need to ask. If people are already too lazy to ask they are not really interested
Inactive accounts automatically get deleted by some kind of a self written garbage collector so we do not save any data that's not relevant anymore
Again, I shouldn't have to ask anyone to use it. If you don't want someone to write a bad review about your plugin based on the hoops they have to jump through, take the hoops away.
Well I just call that laziness
I just call that a bad plugin.
I wouldn't call it bad, but gating entry and someone not liking that is a perfectly valid review.
The sign up is still part of the product though. And if the user is not able to use the product without a sign up, it can be their opinion that it's a bad product.
The same is true why I don't buy an Oculus. I think it's a bad product because I need a fkin Facebook account to use it. I'm too lazy to leave a review somewhere but if I had found that out after buying it, I would leave a bad review too period.
That's the point we're talking about here.
I'm not going to remove or modify the review because someone didn't like your plugin, that's not how reviews work.
Also I don't get why this review is so important
If people see a one star review they're gonna read it and see if the point they're making is important to them or not
Not really important, just weird
It's not weird, it's an opinion and that's the whole point of having reviews
People also leave steam reviews on Dark Souls because it's "too hard". They might have been shopping for the wrong game then but it's still a valid opinion.
I would say if you dont like people having an opinion, don't have a product that the general public can attempt to use as the general public will have plenty of opinions.
"1. Login with Spotify on our website (nowplayingobs.com)

I don't see "ask for approval" anywhere in there and that is the premise you advertise it to users as. If you added "Due to high demand and limited resources the number of unused accounts creates you must ask for access" There would not have been much discrepancy between what that user could expect and what they got. That is my take at least.
- Dont think there is really support for win7
- I dont think that CPU is new enough to use NDI
@jade scaffold
i try whit windows 10 y a amd m4 and dont work
how old was the AMD cpu? I dont remember the exact instructions set needed, but SSE4 maybe, and something AVX(2?)
I do not remember but I could not know because recently I stopped turning on
sorry but i can do work the dni pluging using diferent obs version in on two computers
latest OBS version and latest NDI version works fine on win10 for me. This probably has not been tested on win7, so I have no idea if that works or not.
This is all presuming that the CPU works alright with NDI (I think this is what you're claiming, yeah?). I looked into some old threads, and they seem to only mention SSSE3. Maybe it was some other newtek software that required AVX
you could always try re-installing the latest version and seeing if that helps, but I dont really have any tips, and I dont even know if this is supposed to work on win7
tanks for the help
These are the only settings I can find
i not found my card
Ah - Found it - Is set to Source timing. "Internal" is not an option. I will try the low latency option though.
uuh... idk if thats a good idea. What issue are you trying to solve?
judging by the long post you wrote yesterday, it sounds more like network congestion or cpu overload.
Make sure you're using a good gigabit switch, and that both computer have gigabit link (check both).
Tracking CPU usage is kind of a pain, so you can do that after you've ruled out the first point (network).
Other than that, someone tipped that sync'ing both computer to the same time (NTP server) may be beneficial for sync problems. (again, I think its networking).
@fervent wind
It shouldn't be network. It's been running just fine for months. Shouldn't be CPU either as the loading is the same now as months ago. I have the "sender" process set to maximum priority as well.
dont think thats a good idea either
I've been trying the low latency for the last 1/2 hour but NOT streaming and seems to be ok (so far)
No delay whatsoever
I believe the "Low latency" option is going to be way more sensitive to "bad stuff", like congestion and tiny blips of high cpu load etc. If it works for you, then great. Yeah, I would expect it to be lower latency, of course 🙂
The game machine is an i5 atm - My i7 crashes in warm weather and has to go back under guarantee
So ALL my kit is pretty dated. Streaming machine is a Dual Core Pentium !!! So you MAY well be right about cpu load but as I said it's been working fine for months and months.
sure, and it might be working well for most stuff, but if you launch some extra software, or there is some content/game that is more CPU hungry than others, then that could easily explain it. The load will also continually flucuate. Some background task needs something, windows decides its time to update, re-index, re-do something
I know what you mean but the lag builds up over time at a fairly constant rate. I also have my machines pretty minimalistic though. No useless processes running and definitely no updates cos 1. I have them all set to manual and 2. I have Win7 so Win auto updates don't happen now anyway !
🤷♀️ thats all I got. Those 3 items should be kept an eye on
I'll let you know how the latency goes - I'll be streaming in about an hour
Thanks for your suggestions folks 🙂
videocard pls
hello and good day can anyone help me out with my OBS issue i want to connecy my ipad to my OBS but video device capture does not detect it
hi, about the ndi issue i talked in #windows-support yesterday regarding obs ndi eating up internet on 1 pc making the other pc offline or have really low data.
i tried using ndi hx caputure and it seems to work normally like it used to work on win 10, seems its a win 11 issue for obs ndi plugin. i guess i dont needa buy a gigabit switch.
is there any updates on when the obs-ndi update would be released?
the ndi hx app uses h264 or equivalent codec thru hardware encoding, which means less bandwidth spent. There may be a hit to latency tho, but that could certainly explaint it.
Not sure if the plugin developer has any intention of building a similar solution. Not sure how much work that would be, but sure, that could be nice
It's been more than a year since the NDI plugin was touched. Not sure if there's even support on it anymore, I wouldn't get my hopes up?
I mean, it works as is, and if one really wanted, one could just use NDI hx. Its already avaliable and works with the existing plugin 🙂
works as is

I suspect you've not gone through constant usage of it 
Think Yolo has a few comments in that department 
There a lot of progressive sync issues - and at times audio desyncing.
But it's just one of those things I guess, either you deal with it or try something else.
eh, I use it 2 weeks out of the year extensively, and then just here and there. I dont daily drive it like some of ya'll so yeah, maybe a fair point.
Not sure you can pin that on the plugin tho. I feel like that might be more to do with the underlying technology and nature of congestion/blips in troughput (cpu or otherwise).
I mean I obviously can't speak to the technical challenges or issues of the plugin/techology.
dont know enough about it to say whether it should be able to automagically correct for said blips, and catch up/correct the sync somehow
Just what issues there are.
The progressive local desyncing seems to be handled by artificially adding delay over time. Not a very nice solution but I'm not even sure if that's OBSs end, technology or plugin.
And audio desyncing from the actual feed itself is thankfully not super common. I've had it happen once or twice (like Yolo) with seemingly no reason as to why it occured.
yeah, I think thats what the delay is there for. To keep A/V sync. When a circumstance occurs where either hitches, or gets delays, then you kind of just have to delay the other thing, or drop frames/skip to get ahead again (or maybe that wont work, is not a good idea/hard)
either way, im out of depth here, im gonna go sleep 
Hehe, nn Flaeri sweet dreams 
The Internal option was removed at 4.9.0 so that the latest version does not have. You need to downgrade to 4.8.0.
Though, if the low latency is working on your side, I think it's ok to just use that settings.
Ive been using NDI for a few months now, every Friday - Monday, and have rarely if every ran into desync issues. Im using Source Timing, and am sending 2 NDI streams from my Gaming PC to the OBS pc. I am using a separate analog hardware mixer for audio coming from the soundcard of the gaming PC. Never heard a single complaint about audio desync either.
Im possibly the exception and not the rule, but NDI has been wonderful for my workflow
OBS pc is a Ryzen 7 1700x with a Radeon R9 390. Gaming pc is a Ryzen 5 1600 with an RTX 2060. Network is gigabit and both systems are connected to the same network switch.
Waito is it recommend to have it on a network switch? I have it connected on the main router for both of my pc. I thought you use a network switch if you run out of lan ports to plug to? The same way how you use a usb hub. When you run out of slots to plug ? Or is there something else to it?
Well the Low Latency (Beta) worked just fine on a 6 hour stream. The only glitch was when my internet went down for a min or so but that was a different issue !
often times the cheapo routers that people have do not have gigabit ports. You could run it thru your router, assuming it has gbit on enough ports, but let me tell you some routers... They are not really up to snuff 😅 If you enable a service or two on it, then all of as sudden its having performance issues even doing simple tasks, like passing traffic for a couple of machines. Keep an eye on it, and im usually always a bit skeptical of how much technology they manage to cram into this tiny box at 50 USD. Gotta cut cost somewhere
my router is in another room, and i have a Cat6 cable connecting my router to the network switch, which is on a shelf above my Gaming and OBS PCs.
A router is only needed to deal with sending traffic from your network to the internet and back.
You could have a closed network with JUST a switch, assign IP addresses manually, and it would work perfectly fine as well. You couldn't stream to Twitch/YouTube, but NDI would work fine 😄
sure, but you could also just connect the switch and router. On-link (same subnet) traffic would not need to pass by the firewall/router, and shoudl be nice and quick. Only traffic that needs to go to the inet would pass by the fw/router
What do I do so that I can have my body can in the background?
Hey guys how can i use the vst eq i do not understand this a single bit. first time using it
are you using reaperPlugs? Or some other VST?
reaper
@somber stump
No yes i know how to add it, just dont know how to operate it
oooh 😂 im sorry
this is not really the channel for that. I would suggest reading/watching some videos on EQ'ing the source you're insterested in, like your mic.
and if you have any specific questions, maybe the lovely people in #audio-support could assist 🙂
alright thx for the help
ill leave this here. It has an EQ section, but might be a good idea to read all of it https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/better-voice-recordings.514/
how can i stream channel

Hey, I have a question.
Does anyone know of an app or extension to obs/twitch that, real time, count specific spoken words?
I have a stream where I would want a count, with a ping, happen everything a certain set of words are spoken.
I don't mind setting the ping and counter up via touch portal, if that's the only option, but I need something that auto-count the words.
so i got a question... i made a 25 minute webm video that has a 5 sec transparency video "overlay" that plays every 5 minutes... and when i import it into obs it looks great but skips the transparency sections. Plays the 5 sec overlay, then skips to the next without waiting the 5 minutes.. is there a setting im missing where it should play the entire 25 minute video "looped" and repeat it? thank you
Or does someone have a tool where i can plug in 5 videos on a timer to play every 5 minutes?
Hi! I use OBS studio for broadcasts in the parish I attend. We have a multistream plugin that lets you stream to Facebook and youtube at the same time. If eventually Youtube goes down and disconnects but facebook remains connected, how do I reconnect YouTube only?
@sharp patio if you're referring to obs-multi-rtmp, you should be able to just start streaming again from the plugin's dock
@untold jay Hi, good afternoon! It's actually the "Pascom multistream" plugin, by a Brazilian organization called Pascom. Apparently it is not possible to resume the connection in just one medium while the other is working. Can you help me?
@sharp patio i have not heard of this plugin until just now, but why don't you try obs-multi-rtmp instead? https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/multiple-rtmp-outputs-plugin.964/
I'll try. Thanks! I'll forward the "Pascom multistream" file for you to access if you want.
Setup_Pascom_OBS_015_Stable.exe
So I have been doing research on my problem and still can't find why.. anyone have any suggestions? I may need a lower thirds plug in, that has an option to play a short video on a timer...
Use the social media rotators by Ned or die
Thanks for the suggestion, does that allow you to import your own videos or adjust provided templates?
I believe yes @drifting vortex
Seriously thank you.. I'm still curious why OBS would skip blank segments of a WebM file . Makes no sense
Skips in .Mov files also
hello i am trying to install streamXF plugin but is not showing anywhere on my obs atm i just ran the EXE download file installed and done so far
but no plugin is showing up yet

You should update obs because you are on a very broken version
yeah according to this log, StreamFX did not install into the OBS directory
additionally, you are running a very broken OBS version
Haha jinx
and additionally, the OBS.live plugin is not compatible with OBS 27.1
hmmm so should i just reinstall OBS completly and not use obs live for the time being?
!se
To cleanly remove the OBS.live plugin:
- Uninstall OBS.Live
- Uninstall OBS Studio (make sure that "User Settings" 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.
And make sure streamfx installer is pointing to correct directory
There are directions on the streamfx wiki
!streamfx
If you are looking for more information or support for the StreamFX plugin, please visit the forum resource page.
forgive me for the ignorant question but am i making sure use setting are not selected
User settings are unchecked by default when uninstalling. Keep it that way
ok thnx
!help
If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!
thnx i was able to fix everything much appreciated

yeah, but is there anything that can count spoken words? I'm after specifically said words by me, rather than text.
Let me rephrase it- I need a counter, and a ping- those I can set up. But I also need something that actually counts -specific- words that I say. Not type, but speach.
no, not from the chat. from my microphone, hence the question 🙂

is there anyway to add Tip ticker/Tip Jar on TikTok streaming?
or anyway to show the top gifters on TikTok
are there any "hello world" example source filter plugins?
Hey Do you have any idea how can i add a timer to OB which should display the 1/100 of a second
?
Looking to find out if anyone has created a shader or plugin of some sort to bevel or embossed style text inside of OBS ?
would using css in an browser source be possible ?
@daring remnant i have a modified version of a python clock script that shows the current time with 6 decimal points, does this help?
in settings, don't touch update interval, type in the name of the text source you'd like to update
(and be warned that it eats a ton of CPU, use a smaller font size to reduce CPU usage)
text-freetype2 might be a little better in terms of cpu usage.
text-freetype2 uses cached glyphs so probably
but neither are probably significant with smaller text
Good Morning, is there any plugin that let's me see the current viewers count watching the stream?
What streaming service?
Youtube
Eh, aside from having YT studio up, I'm not sure.
YT doesn't really provide a lot of the APIs that something like twitch does
It was my first time using obs. I used streamlabs before and they had that available
Is now possible with the V3 API
Someone just needs to make it and deal with all the other stuff around their API
Not sure what that is lol
Can somebody tell me a way in which I can multistream at multiple platforms. I want to stream at YouTube, Twitch & Facebook.
A third party plug-in for streaming to multiple RTMP servers is available for OBS Studio. https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/multiple-rtmp-outputs-plugin.964
Thanks mam. It's OK with more CPU Usage.
i used this for the first time yesterday, and i had to stop the twitch stream because this plug in uses the speed divided.
im going to try to use obs live with restream today to see
indeed 🙂 Maybe restream.io would be better if you dont have the bandwidth to burn
