Mute Filter 0.3.0

norihiro submitted a new resource:

Mute Filter - mute audio of your source

Introduction
This plugin to mute audio of a source.

Even though a user muted a source in the mixer of OBS Studio, the source sometimes triggers OBS Studio to add more audio buffers.
adding 21 milliseconds of audio buffering, total audio buffering is now 85 milliseconds (source: cam3)
It should not cause any problem but it's better to avoid unnecessary process.

Properties
No property is provided.

hello thank you for making this plugin it really helps, if there was a way to control the mute/unmute with a macro it would be perfect. im using a filter to transmit audio to another pc at the moment. my problem is that it bypasses the mixer on the main pc, and i dont have a keyboard to control the second pc.

nvm i found a fix for it with this: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/obs-filter-hotkeys.1125/

Why does the Mute Filter download point to Multi Source Effect?

Why does the Mute Filter download point to Multi Source Effect?

Thank you for letting me know, it was my mistake when writing a release note. I have updated the link.

Is there a way to use this to mute a "scene" source's audio?

 

[norihiro]

Is there a way to use this to mute a "scene" source's audio?

Unfortunately, no. Due to the audio mixing architecture in OBS Studio, scenes and groups do not provide audio filters.

 

[toplachi]

I see... Thank you!

Random question. Where do I find this plugin now on OBS? For example If I am in audio mixer and add a filter, I don;t see it pop up as a filter to choose from? So where is it?

The filter should be found by these steps.
1. Right click your audio source on "Audio Mixer" and click "Filters".
2. Click "+" button on the list of "Audio Filters".
3. Click "Mute Audio".

Hello
I'm having trouble getting your finding the plugin in the audio filters for my source.
It's not listed. I'm sure it's an installation error on my part. Not sure what I've done wrong though.

I'm sorry to hear about that. Would you describe what is your OS, and where you have installed the plugin? Without any information what you have done, I cannot help.

I'm running windows11 home.
I think I've installed the plugin to C:\program files\obs-studio
Is this the correct DL for me, obs-mute-filter-0.3.0-obs27-Windows.zip?

If your OBS Studio installation is there, it should be fine. The file "obs-mute-filter-0.3.0-obs27-Windows.zip" should work with OBS Studio 30.1.
I have an installation instruction for another plugin. The step should be as same for this filter. https://github.com/norihiro/obs-color-monitor/wiki/Install-Windows
If you followed the step, you should see "obs-mute-filter.dll" and many other plugins in the directory "C:\Program Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit".
