VST Plugins not work on Wayland

Use Xorg?
The viewers' experience might be all flashy and nice, but a lot of decently-capable rigs are an ugly mess on the control side. The operators like it that way, not because of the mess itself, but because it works, it's reliable, and they know where everything is 'cause they put it there.

For audio though, I don't like to use OBS at all for that. Like pretty much all serious video production apps, any audio handling beyond a dumb passthrough is "token", and you should be grateful for what you do have. If you have anything beyond that "token", move the entire audio chain to an external thing to do all the work, and pass the final result from there as the only audio source at all, completely unchanged.
That external thing could be a physical console with a stereo USB line-in to feed the finished soundtrack to OBS, or a DAW to do the same thing but with a software connection instead of USB. Since you're on Linux, you might be able to install a very good, free DAW from the repositories:
On Debian and derivatives:
Once you've got that running and processing audio (use their forum for that), then you can ask about getting audio from there into OBS.
And here's another set of plugins that I like:
lsp-plug.in

I want the plugins in OBS to work directly in Wayland, because it's too tedious to drive sound through a DAW.
So, it's time for OBS developers to strain
This has happened several times now: I get an e-mail about a reply, with the reply included in the e-mail, but when I come here to reply to it myself, it's not there. Anyway:
But that's the thing about open-source software. If you really need something to be different, YOU write the code to do that! And when it works, submit it to be included in an official release. They may or may not accept it, but regardless, *you* still have what *you* need.
If you're not going to do that for whatever reason (can't, don't want to, etc.), submit a bug report so they at least know, and then figure out how to work around what it is now.

Okay, I guess. Yes, it *is* some extra work, but I didn't think it was all that bad. Just a very-well-featured audio console in software, without the clutter because I built it. (I didn't write the code; it just has enough tools already to build anything)dcmen007 said:
No. The devs are volunteer. They do what they want. I have my own criticisms too, and I *might*, eventually, someday, get to the point of fixing them myself. We'll see.dcmen007 said:
