Shutdown Plugin 0.2.1

This is a patch release.

Change in 0.2.1

• Fixed OBS Studio is not shutdown even if force = true when the virtual camera or replay-buffer is active.
• Added a new parameter exit_timeout to more strongly force OBS Studio to terminate.

Limitations

• If using remux, this plugin cannot shutdown even if force is set true. Set exit_timeout to positive value.

This is a major update release.

Change in 0.2.0

• Fixed the issue that the force option does not work on OBS Studio 31.
  • When shutdown is requested with force = true, this plugin will request to stop recording and streaming to avoid the confirmation dialog.
  • The setting ConfirmOnExit is not longer modified by this plugin.
• Rebuild for OBS Studio 31.1.1 (Windows and Linux), 31.0.0 (macOS).

Limitations

• If using remux, this plugin cannot shutdown even if force is set true. (This limitation came from the first version 0.1.0.)

Future plans

• In the future, we will change the plugin file name to shutdown-plugin.

This is a minor update release.

Change in 0.1.2

• Supported old OBS Studio 27.2.4 on Windows. You also need to install obs-websocket 5.0.1 because obs-websocket 4 does not support other plugins to register a request. For macOS and Linux, OBS Studio >= 28.0.0 is required.
• Fixed code-sign and notarization for macOS.

There is no change for Linux.

Future plans

• Implement a dialog box to notice the user OBS will be terminated, maybe with a cancel button with countdown.

Difference from the previous version 0.1.0

• Implemented the force option. The confirmation dialog for recording/streaming/virtual-camera is/are running will be skipped.
