Multiple RTMP outputs plugin 2020-05-17

Actually, C:\ProgramData is not the incorrect location. More specifically, the plugin itself installed in C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins.

It's not where every other plugin I have installs (C:\Program Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins and \data). I manually installed this in the usual location. I'm not sure why this plugin needs to be in a different location.

I'm not sure why this plugin needs to be in a different location.

You might ask Sorayuki for why they install the Multi RTMP Output plugin in there and the DistroAV team why they put their plugins in there, too.

I have tested all installation methods with Sorayuki's installers of 0.7.3.0 and 0.7.3.1. It works fine with OBS Studio installed using the following methods:

• Normal install (C:\Program Files\obs-studio)
• User-specified location using an installer
• Steam
• Microsoft Store

The one method where C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins will not work in is an unpacked ZIP set up as a portable install using the "obs_portable_mode" file. If you are using a portable install, you really should not be using plugin installers anyway but using ZIP files unpacked into the appropriate places in the portable install directory.

If you unpacked a ZIP file and did not create an "obs_portable_mode" file at the root of the tree where you unpacked OBS Studio into, it will behave like an installed copy of OBS Studio, looking in the home directory for configs and adding C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\ as a location to find plugins.

That said, I am not sure what to say there, but all I can say is that "It works for me", even in its location in C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins.

Sometime last week, 0.7.3.2 was installed.

Seems to work just fine here using OBS Studio 32.0.2 under Windows 11 Pro 23H2 (likely to go to 24H2 before too long).
