This is a experimental release of Face Tracker for OBS Studio.

This release has a memory leak bug so that the author highly recommend to use 0.2.2 or the latest revision.

Changes

  • Alpha version of PTZ control feature is added.
    Check limitations for known issues.
    • In future, I hope it can connect through obs-ptz so that user can use both manual and automatic control.
  • Reset button to reset current object-tracking status as well.
  • New property to always show information. It's useful to make a demo of this plugin.

Install

Windows

Download obs-face-tracker-0.2.0-Windows-Installer.exe (provided below) and execute it.
Or, download obs-face-tracker-0.2.0-Windows.zip (provided below) and extract to your OBS Studio installed directory.

MacOS

See also this guide.

Linux

Download and install obs-face-tracker_1-0.2.0-1_amd64.deb (provided below)
Or, compile from source for other distributions.

Limitation

  • Binaries for macOS and Ubuntu are not tested.
    • Currently macOS binary has an issue that a dynlib is missing. If you have an issue to load the plugin, please try the previous release 0.1.2.
  • Currently the plugin works for one face. If there are two or more faces, the plugin might hover back and forth over the faces.
  • Transition with Duplicate Sources, the tracking may start from the initial condition. Recommended to disable Duplicated Sources so far.
  • Consumes a lot of CPU. It is recommended to have enough test beforehand to ensure it won't affect encoding.
  • There is no warranty for the results. Use at your own risk.
  • Deb package for Ubuntu requires OBS Studio 27 or later. Other binaries work with OBS Studio 26 or later.
