Zoom to Mouse 1.0.1

I downloaded the modified script because I was getting the "Failed to call frontend_event_callback for frontend API" error. The new script runs...thanks! I've been able to use it in a couple of instances but it seems that it stops working after a few minutes. It may be because I used a mouse right-click to bring up a context menu. Every time I do that it breaks the script and I have to restart it.

I can't say for sure if that's the only thing that breaks it, but right-clicks break it for sure, even if no context menu is generated. Any ideas on how to fix that>
 
I installed the script but the zoom sources select box are always empty.

i'm using flatpak version with ubuntu.

any ideas ?
 
I had the same problem on Ubuntu 24.04 and OBS 31.0.1.
To fix it for Linux you need to change a line in the get_dc_info function
(line 209 in the latest [Feb 7, 2024] obs-zoom-to-mouse.lua on the github:
https://github.com/BlankSourceCode/obs-zoom-to-mouse/blob/main/obs-zoom-to-mouse.lua)
source_id = "xshm_input"
should be
source_id = "xshm_input_v2"
Only sources with this id are added to the 'Zoom Source' list.
The display name for this id in the selection list of Sources dock is "Display Capture (XSHM)".
It seems that at some point id was changed to version 2.
unfortunately, doesn't seem to work.

Does anyone know of any forks of this that actually work on Linux with Wayland? It seems the original creator has abandoned this project, and while there are over 100 forks, I don't really want to test out each and every one of them to see if any of them happen to have fixed the Wayland issue. I understand Linux has a small percentage of the market, but does literally anybody care about fixing this?
