Background Removal / Virtual Green-screen & Low-Light Enhance

Background Removal / Virtual Green-screen & Low-Light Enhance v1.1.13

not perfect..

Reasons:
1. I don't know how, but most Video meeting Software does it better (Developers here wont have a professional Budget and Team - I am just objective). "Xsplit Vcam" in the free model has better BG removal, but it is limited to 720p and has a very present watermark.

2. with activated BG Removal, my CPU monitor inside OBS raises from 9% to 63% with "calculate mask every" 1 Frame, or 54% with every second frame.

3. Also, my webcam seems to loose FPS if BG Removal is activated.

I use:
LG 920C Webcam with OBS 27.2.1 64-bit.
I'm loving the plugin, however, it is randomly causing OBS to crash. If I remove the plugin, I get no crashes. Put it back, and I'll get crashes. Sometimes often other times only occasionally. I'm running Monteray on an iMac (2015). It generates a crash report but I've no idea where to send it.
I installed the plugin, but it only adds the background removal to Effect Filters, but not Audio/Video Filters. I have a Windows 10. Am I missing something?

Thanks for trying our plugin!
Unfortunately Audio/Video filter is impossible in the particular case of our plugin, but the effect filter works beautifully. I hope that can be useful for you.
The results were WAY to noisy for me, with the segmentation edges constantly fluctuation in a way that is distracting. It would be helpful if this was combined with a chroma key removal in a single filter, as it could apply a mix of settings to different parts of the image: strong chroma key on the background segment, more spill reduction in the foreground, etc. But as this plugin simply recolors the affected area, it ends up cutting off things that I don't want it to cut off and completely borking edges in a way that traditional chroma key handles more gracefully.
Wonderful plugin ... when it works. But it crashes OBS my Mac (both the release version and the candidate) when used together with e.g. a window capture device.
I can't open it in both of my Macs. After I download it, it downloads to a folder so when I ask to unzip in Terminal it can't locate the file. When I manually copy it to Applications/OBS.app/Contents, the program doesn't recognize the file. It doesn't show up when click on the "+" sign to choose the program. I don't know why this isn't showing up. I ran it running Big Sur and Catalina
There is no Segmentation model choice on macOS, at least not on macOS 10.15.7, so the better mask generation models are not available. Whatever model is being used is terrible and results in a very rapidly moving mask that is unusable because it is so ugly.
it doesn't work on MacOS Ventura 13.5.2, can you fix it please?

Hi! I'm sorry this is working out of the box - do you want to open an issue so we can investigate? https://github.com/obs-ai/obs-backgroundremoval/isssues
Doesn't even work... and it goes into the effects filters when it should go into audio/video filters, and where is the colour key for it

Unfortunately, it doesn't work at all for me. Just crashes OBS when I try to select it. I'm using Linux if that means anything. Disappointing.
