I will not be releasing any further versions of this plugin. Linking to other forks which have very specific feature updates for people to find here is perfectly fine.
This plugin will not be updated for OBS 28. Please use the built-in virtual camera instead.
My use case is maybe slightly odd. I play DnD and guest on an internet radio show, for both of these we have an app that takes two camera feeds, one for the face, and the other for "something" (which for DnD is my dice tray). I currently run these through OBS and use the filter plugin to get one output, and the other uses the built-in Virtual Cam.
There is also an extended use case where we have a guest(s) from Discord, I screencap two images and using 2 more of the virtual cams send them to the app we have. I also capture my output from that and using another send it back to discord. The upshot is I'm using all 4 cams this plugin provides and the built-in one! Sometimes I can be streaming as well so use my main output.
Exeldro's plugin which allows the built-in virtual cam to be a filter would solve the problem of the in-built cam being different to the main stream.
My problem is I need more than one built-in output. I accept that it's not worth Fenrir's time to support edge cases! So I have various options and looking for suggestions/recommendations.
1) Stick with OBS 27. This will be my short-term solution, but not be good in the longer term.
2) Find a fork of this plugin that is updated to OBS 28 (or do it myself). I haven't found one yet, and I'd imagine if there was one someone would have already posted it here, but worth asking on the off chance. Realistically though I'm a software engineer I'm not going to have the time (or skills) to update it myself.
3) Change the way I do things. I could use some other virtual cam program to handle the face cam as I tend not to do that advanced things with it. I'd rather not though.
4) Have an old OBS 27 (in portable mode) which acts as a relay. Do the main work in OBS 28, and have it send scenes via NDI, then the OBS 27 just has scenes that pick up the NDI source and have a filter to send on the virtual cams. I haven't yet played with NDI in OBS 28 I've heard others have had issues, but in time this may work but is a bit of a workaround.
5) Any other suggestions?
