Hi there, having trouble installing this. I downloaded the ZIP file from Github. The folder in the archive is called "spectralizer-master".

In that folder there are the following folders: data, fffftw3, package, src, and then a bunch of random files along with them. I have tried putting the entire folder in my program files/obs-studio/obs-plugins/64bit direcrory, I've tried extracting the folder contents into that directory, but its not showing up as a source in OBS.

I have read the installation directions 100x but there is no "plugins" folder in the ZIP file I download. Please tell me what I am missing - thanks kindly!
You downloaded the source code not the plugin

Hi! I can't install spectralizer on macos.
I have Mac Os High Sierra and OBS Studio 24.6 version.
When I want to install spectralizer on my OBS Studio, I runned command install-mac.sh, but it said me the follow message:
"Creating plugin folder

Done!"

When I open the OBS Studio don't show in sources, I try to copy manually in the application plugin directory and dont works... : /

I'm having the same problem as UN4G1V3N! After hours of trying to get it installed. I finally do, but now I can't find it in Tools or in Sources. I can't figure out how to add it in either.

Hi! I can't install spectralizer on macos.

Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad english.

You're trying to download the source code. Instead, you want to click the 'go to download' link there and install the one matching your OS.

Hey there. I was able to get this installed on my Mac by following the steps, first installing Brew, and then using the script to install fftw3 and finally the spectralizer. I got it working in OBS. Now I'd like to get this working in Streamlabs OBS, please! They just released a version for Mac. Simply creating an identical spectralizer folder with the "bin" and "data" folders inside into the /$USER/Library/Application Support/slobs-plugins/* doesn't work.

Am I right that Streamlabs OBS is built on an OBS framework and is the same in many, many ways?

Any suggestions or workarounds, please?

How do you set this up in the first place? (I really tried every way I could) Is there a tutorial video somewhere?

Love this plugin! One weird problem I've encountered just today though...
The spectralizer is not as responsive to video files through the VLC source, as it was a few days ago. It is refreshing only once every 0.5 seconds kinda thing, whereas when I initially tested it, it would be immediately responsive to the audio source with no lagging etc.

Any ideas to fix this would be amazing! Cheers

I followed the directions and feel successfully updated the obs plugin files correctly. The audio visualizer shows up as a source, but when I click ok to add it, it crashes OBS. Attached is the log. Any help would be appreciated!

For the Mac install instructions...

2. Copy over the folders "bin" and "data" from the folder "plugin" from this zip file:
$ mv plugin/* "/Users/$USER/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/plugins/spectralizer"

There is no Bin folder? Only Data. Please advise.

hi, i used spectralizer v1.2 for mac for a while tonight with OBS v25.0.8 on mac mojave 10.14.6. very cool plugin, thank you for that.

then i went to try out another plugin - Tuna. the Tuna developer hasn't released a new version and has on their page to use the older version. installed it. couldn't get it to work AND it stopped spectralizer from working.
so, i tried many reinstalls and mac restarts and even deleted Tuna, still can't get spectralizer to work again.
it shows up as a source but no audio from any source triggers the metering/visuals either in the overlay or in the source selection popup.
i can hear & see the audio coming into OBS on the audio mixer meters no problem. spectralizer is not recognizing the audio source.

tried re-installing homebrew and spectralizer, everything seems to be in the right place.

help?

Is there any possibility to use this with asio? Can't seem to get it working. Or maybe a workaround? My audio card it asio only.

Hi guys, it's my first post here. Itried to read about my problem with the plug-in but no way.
I didn't manage to see spetralizer on the list of sources

This is my Install.mac.sh:

#!/bin/sh
echo "Checking for brew.."
if ! [ -x "$(command -v brew)" ]; then
echo 'Error: brew is not installed!'
echo 'Install brew from https://brew.sh'
exit 1
fi

echo "Checking for fftw..."
if brew ls --versions fftw > /dev/null; then
echo "fftw is already installed"
else
echo "Installing fftw"
brew install fftw
fi

echo "Uninstalling old version"
rm -rf "/Users/$USER/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/plugins/spectralizer"
echo "Creating plugin folder"
mkdir -p "/Users/$USER/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/plugins/spectralizer"
echo "Moving plugin over"
mv plugin/* "/Users/$USER/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/plugins/spectralizer"
echo "Done!"/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"

I also attached my log if needed.
I hope you guys can help me! Thanx in advance!

For the life of me I cannot get this plugin to work. Using OBS 25, followed instructions, yet nothing. Files show UP in my obs-plugins folders yet nothing shows up in sources. Installation IS simple, but it just does not work. I am a PC noob (recent machead, windows is frustratingly new to me) so any help appreciated.

Trying to install on a Mac and I don't understand the first step of the installation instructions: Install fftw3 over brew. Is there an app called "fftw3 over brew"? If there is, I can't find it. Or do I install "brew" and then "fftw3" over it? If so, I'm not quite sure how to install one application over another.

The rest of the instructions make sense and I've downloaded the correct file, just want to get this first step right before moving on.
