      @jfilliaplays I'm getting a lot of wiggly movement around the edges of my head, even when I'm not moving, when I remove the background. I'll have to check again if it happens when I simply blur the real background (which is a nice feature, I agree)....
      Are you blurring the real background, or replacing the background with another image?
      And do you get wiggly distortion like that when you replace the background?
      Thanks

    If the installer isn't working for you, I suggest uninstalling it before attempting a reinstall. I encountered issues with the installer, possibly due to the OBS version. Subsequently, I upgraded to a higher version of OBS, but the problem persisted even after installation.
    I resolved it by using the uninstaller and reinstalling it in the new version. While it may seem obvious, having someone remind you of this can be quite helpful.

    when you mention about the 30fps - if for example im recording in 60fps do i make that my target? for me mediapipe is very bad and robust video matting is best with least "flickering" but it drops to 32fps while rest all are 60fps but they flicker a lot around the edges no matter if threshold is on or off

    • @royshilk
      @royshilk  5 месяцев назад

      The MediaPipe is the smallest and fastest model, but it comes with a tradeoff for accuracy. RVM is powerful but bigger and therefore slower and will reduce FPS. For the flicker you could use the "temporal smoothing" set it to a higher/lower setting, see how it effects your stream.

      Now your camera is just transparent so simply add an image source in the scene and move it above the camera and it will be behind your portrait video. Same with a color source if you want a solid color background

    Hey, is there a tutorial on how to get the file into the obs folder properly? I've tried everything and nothing seems to work. I go to filters and "Remove Background' is not an option. I believe i've put it in the right place, I've even tried to put it in places I don't believe it should be in haha but it still doesn't show up in my OBS. Everything is up to date and I have the right version downloaded. Thanks in advance.

      @royshilk  9 месяцев назад

      Hi. I'm sorry it's not working out of the box for you. There may be several factors. What OS are you running? OBS is portable install? Version should be 29.1+
      If it doesn't show up at all OBS never loaded it, so it's either a version problem or a file location problem

      Thanks for using our plugin! You don't necessarily need a green background, by using the filter you get a transparent background. You can add a "Color Source" with a green color and place that in the back behind the masked video. You can use an image as background too in the same way.

      There could be several reasons one might be that your CPU doesn't compute the masks fast enough. Other may be the image-change threshold, if the image doesn't change it doesn't compute a new mask

    I think I’ve got all the software requirements met and the new installer release 1 deb package is putting files in the obs plugin directories. ( I was having trouble with the cmake previously) I’m not sure I’m meeting the HW requirements, yet. I’ve got an HDMI video source but not seeing the filter. I’m running ubuntu studio on an AMD Ryzen 5 and no Nvidia GPU, just the ryzen on-chip GPU. I can try another web camera or another PC, but curious if the GPU type is my problem? This has given me limitations on other SW packages in the past that needed Cuda or tensorflow. Looks nice!! Thanks!!

    • @royshilk
      @royshilk  Год назад

      HW should not be a problem since this can on the CPU, so (any kind of) GPU is not needed.
      If you installed the filter but still can't see it make sure your looking in "Effect Filters" (and not "Audio/Video Filters")
      Also OBS v28+ is needed, and you may need to restart it as well.

      @@royshilk Ok. Good to know! Thanks! I’ll keep messing with it at next chance. So far I definitely upgraded using the ppa repository method to obs studio 29 and that is updated and kept all my old scenes and settings. I have looked in effects filters and rebooted a few times but maybe I don’t have the correct camera source there yet. I threw away a broken monitor and my usb web camera was integrated into it. 😞 The hdmi to usb sampling uses a YU12 format ( I was sampling old Hi8 tapes through a VCR) so I’ll see if I can dig up an older usb camera or get a new one!! Would it work on just a video source, say mp4 file from my phone or does it have to be a live camera stream? We’ll figure it out! Thanks again!
