Expected Behavior

When I compile the project template on Linux and use make install the plugin is installed to /usr/local/lib/obs-plugins. I would expect either OBS to load the plugin after doing this or I would expect make install to install the plugin to a directory that's actually searched by OBS.

Current Behavior

OBS does not search /usr/local/lib/obs-plugins/ and the make install command doesn't do what one would expect because the plugin is installed incorrectly. Installing the plugin to a path which is not searched appears to be pretty useless.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Clone the project repository
2. mkdir build && cd build
3. cmake ..
4. make
5. sudo make install
6. Start OBS
7. Log file doesn't show the text that the template plugin writes to the log (i.e. plugin is not loaded)

Expected Behavior

I am currently developing a plugin I would like to release for OBS. I've noticed that both the OBS source and this plugin template use the GPL2 license. As this is a template/boilerplate generation of a set of cmake build scripts, is the GPL2 LICENSE file that is automatically generated the license that any plugin created with this template is expected to use? Or am I able to license my own plugin code with the license of my choosing (e.g.- MIT)?

Expected Behavior

My plugin should build without errors from libobs on macOS using GitHub Actions.

Current Behavior

The GitHub Actions build succeeds for all OSes except for macOS. A "file not found" error from the line #include <util/config-file.h> is why the build stops.

More testing indicated that some files in the resulting libobs/util include directory were missing, as shown below.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Generate from this repo.
2. Add #include <util/config-file.h> to the source code.
3. Commit and push.
4. The macOS run fails.

Anything else we should know?

The other libobs include files and directories are all there. It is only the util directory that is having this problem. Also, this has occurred every time I have run the workflow - it is not a one-time thing.

Summary

As there are multiple types of plugins, It would make sense to have a basic template for each of those various types.

Motivation

I know I have helped a couple of people out now, getting basic functions such as a menu setup, with a plugin setup window dialog started.

Drawbacks

PluginTemplate would most likely need to be changed to give links and descriptions for each of the plugin templates

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install CMake 3.23
2. Run .github/scripts/Build-Windows-ps1 -Configuration Release -Target x64

Anything else we should know?

The error is caused because CMake versions older than 3.24, which do not support --fresh.
It is raised here:

It would be less confusing if the minimum required version is raised to 3.24 here:

An alternative is obviously to remove the usage of --fresh.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a s3 bucket with name obs-nightly and us west 2 region
2. Upload files with the name same as given in the code (e.g. osx-deps-2018-08-09.tar.gz)
3. Make the settings and change it as a static website

Expected Behavior

App should build and package properly, as the Packages.dmg checksum should be consistent.

Current Behavior

This is a potential security issue with the current plugin template. The downloaded dmg of the app used to package the MacOS version of the plugin (Packages.dmg) does not have a checksum that matches the expected checksum, and according to the Packages developer website and GitHub, no update has been posted since Feb of 2022. I was able to find a WebArchive (wayback machine) version of the file from July of this summer.

Current Packages.dmg Download: http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/files/Packages.dmg
Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20230727054218/http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/files/Packages.dmg

Here are the results when looking at file size and checksum:

~/Downloads 
❯ ls -la Packages-*.dmg 
-rw-r--r--@ 1 mark  staff  8398465 Sep 24 13:09 Packages-Current.dmg
-rw-r--r--@ 1 mark  staff  8398202 Sep 24 13:22 Packages-Wayback.dmg

~/Downloads 
❯ sha256sum Packages-*.dmg       
9d9a73a64317ea6697a380014d2e5c8c8188b59d5fb8ce8872e56cec06cd78e8  Packages-Current.dmg
6afdd25386295974dad8f078b8f1e41cabebd08e72d970bf92f707c7e48b16c9  Packages-Wayback.dmg

Note- the Wayback version of the image has a checksum that matches the current checksum in the macOS package GH action script.

Something changed the file size and thus the checksum of the Packages.dmg file on the developer's server last night (I know it happened in the last 24 hours as I packaged up a plugin yesterday without issue). However, the version of the Packages app which is to be installed in both cases is the same: v1.2.10.

Honestly, the more I dig into the Packages app, the more concerned I get about using it. The fact that the downloads page (and the maintainer website) are not even https is a red flag to me, especially when checksums are changing. And as this is a packaging utility that generates .pkg files for plug-in users to install with (potentially with elevated permissions) its not something to take lightly.

Edit- I just checked the version of the webserver that is serving up the files, the Packages.dmg file was modified yesterday, and the Apache server being used was built in 2019:

❯ curl --head http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/files/Packages.dmg
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Steps to Reproduce

Expected Behavior

I'd expect the CMakeLists.txt to remain unchanged when running a build script. I understand this script is intended to be used in CI, but it is conventient to be used locally for development but then forces you to undo these line additions.

Current Behavior

Every time I run Build-Windows.ps1, I get one more line and they cause annoying diffs like this:

diff --git a/CMakeLists.txt b/CMakeLists.txt
index 317be39..07734aa 100644
--- a/CMakeLists.txt
+++ b/CMakeLists.txt
@@ -83,3 +83,6 @@ endif()
 # --- End of section ---

 setup_plugin_target(${CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME})
+
+
+

Although not visible in this diff, these newlines are DOS style line endings even if the CMakeLists.txt is Unix style.

Steps to Reproduce

1. git clone "https://github.com/obsproject/obs-plugintemplate"
2. cd obs-plugintemplate
3. .\.github\scripts\Build-Windows.ps1
4. script run completes
5. CMakeLists.txt is altered

I should be able to change the values of ENABLE_FRONTEND_API and ENABLE_QT in one place and have them apply to all operating systems.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Use this template
2. In your plugin, make us of QT or the OBS frontend api
   • this requires setting the appropriate build variables, so you:
3. Open CMakePresets.json and quickly realise you need to set the same value multiple times, leading to possible user-errors

Anything else we should know?

Using inheritance and a single preset for the two cross-platform variables makes sense as a solution.

Summary

I have heard some talk about updating the plugin template and would like to add in my two cents.

Motivation

Time to update

Additional Information

Here are the ideas I had

• Multiple plugin templates, for various plugin types
• Update internal CI to use GitHub actions instead of azure pipelines
• setup CMakeLists.txt so that the plugin can be built either 'in tree' or 'out of tree' automatically
• Automatically determine in the Mac CI if the signing certificates and other variables exist in the secrets
  • disable the code signing actions if they don't
• update and expand information on setting up the mac signing CI pipeline.
  • It took me days and multiple sources across the internet to stumble on how to get it working.

  #include "simde/x86/sse2.h"

After some digging it appears that

• AFAIU The root cause is that the ARCH_SIMDE_FLAGS is not set during the obs-studio build for MacOS as the obs-studio build is using the new "framework 3.0" cause the OBS_CMAKE_VERSION is forced to 3.0.0 for MacOS and obs-studio CMakeList.txt uses "framework 3.0" for "Darwin"

  The use of "framework 3.0" (instead of legacy) does not expose the simde header for libobs cause ARCH_SIMD_FLAGS is never set hence the test in obs-studio/libobs/CMakeLists.txt:316 fails to add this files to public headers.

• This does not happen on windows cause OBS_CMAKE_VERSION is set to 2.0.0 so the legacy build is used in OBS

• Does not happen either for linux cause libobs deps is not built taken from package manager which install all the simde headers

Steps to Reproduce

1. fork the https://github.com/obsproject/obs-plugintemplate
2. update the buildspec.json to use obs 30.0.0-rc1:

3. push on master to trigger github action -> windows, linux build fine, macos fails.

Anything else we should know?

I had this issue cause I was preparing the update of a plugins that uses libobs "util/util.hpp" which is not available on 29.1.2 (restored by obsproject/obs-studio@55237ab on master and release/30.0.0)

So I changed buildspec.json to use 30.0.0-rc1 and the new sse2.h occurs on macos only.

As the 30.0.0 is still in RC1 it is not too late to fix it.

Expected Behavior

This plugin template is for OBS >=28 QT6 plugins only...right?
So, its generated Linux .deb files should have a control file that says something like:

...
Depends: obs-studio (>= 28.0.0), libqt6coresomething (>= 6.x.x), libqt6guisomething (>= 6.x.x), libqt6widgetssomething (>= 6.x.x)
...

Current Behavior

The obs-ndi plugin that I work on has a branch based on this obs-plugintemplate.
I unzipped the plugin's .deb file generated by this template's build it says:

...
Depends: obs-studio (>= 27.0.0), libqt5core5a (>= 5.9.0~beta), libqt5gui5 (>= 5.3.0), libqt5widgets5 (>= 5.7.0)
...

It seems to install OK (the jury is still out on that), but I found this very odd/unexpected.

Steps to Reproduce

1. build a linux x64 plugin
2. unzip the generated .deb file
3. unzip the control.tar.gz file
4. look at the control file

Anything else we should know?

The above hard coded Depends line is taken straight from these lines of code:

      set(CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS
          "obs-studio (>= 27.0.0), libqt5core5a (>= 5.9.0~beta), libqt5gui5 (>= 5.3.0), libqt5widgets5 (>= 5.7.0)"

Expected Behavior

Including the obs header <util/threading.h> breaks the build on windows as the header includes "../../deps/w32-pthreads/pthread.h" That file isn't present in the plugin dependencies and so the CI fails for windows. Here's a test project I made based on the template:
https://github.com/univrsal/test123
And here's the CI log:
https://github.com/univrsal/test123/runs/7821655312?check_suite_focus=true

I use that header in tuna to set the name of a separate thread via os_thread_set_name (https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/blob/master/libobs/util/threading.h#L95) which used to work fine with the old CI I used, but I'm trying to switch to the actions from this template because I have to redo the CI for the move to Qt6.

Current Behavior

The CI fails.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create repository from template
2. Include util/threading.h
3. CI fails

Have the plugin name in the release title

Current Behavior

Creates a draft release titled OBS Studio. While it's fine because it is a draft, having a friendly name in buildspec.json would be great so that we don't have to change the title all the time. I already put 'media-playlist-source' as the name but being able to put 'Media Playlist Source' in release titles automatically would be useful.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Push a tag to make a release
2. Check the draft release

The script to download the dependencies is downloading Packages.pkg.
However, the URL is not found as of now.

Can you update the URL?

Where do I find libobs? Seems to not be included or linked to via git submodule?

I've cloned the repo and followed the instructions on my Windows PC but my cmake-gui fails when I hit configure complaining that it can't find LIBOBS:

Could NOT find Libobs (missing: LIBOBS_LIB LIBOBS_INCLUDE_DIR) 
CMake Error at plugins/obs-midi2/external/FindLibObs.cmake:106 (message):
  Could not find the libobs library
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  plugins/obs-midi2/CMakeLists.txt:30 (include)

I've tried following other a couple other forums online to see what may be a fix and few suggested to building OBS first then pointing LIBOBS_LIB to the .lib file in my build/libobs/Release folder the other variable to the /libobs folder... HOWEVER after doing that and hitting configure the new entries in cmake disappear and I'm given the same error all over again...

Expected Behavior

Installing a obs-plugintemplate based plugin should not result in anti-virus reporting threat

Current Behavior

obs-plugintemplate based plugins installed on Windows have a url shortcut installed that defaults to pointing to http://www.mywebsite.com.
This is an unfortunate choice because that redirects to what looks like a poorly convincing phishing site:

I suspect that this URL is a known phishing site and is why some AV software may flag shortcuts pointing to is as being a potential threat.

Steps to Reproduce

(Reported 2nd hand from user)
On Windows:

1. Install Norton Anti-Virus
2. Install a plugin based on obs-plugintemplate that does not change the default MyAppURL "http://www.mywebsite.com"

At some point in time during or shortly after the installation Norton will pop up the following:

If an AV does not flag this url as a threat, then opening the installed url shortcut...

...browses to http://www.mywebsite.com which redirects to a poorly convincing phishing site:
https://a1e24d2a-2434-467c-b2a2-c6dfd5f7e8a4.s3.ap-northeast-2.amazonaws.com/%26%25%5E%24%26%26%40%5E%23%5E!%23!%25%25%25!%24%5E%5E!%25!%40%26%23!%24%25%24%40%26%24%25!%23%40%23%24%40%26%25%23%40%23/index.html?&C=Kirkland&S=145471043&Q=145471043.com&SR=47059&IP=my%20website%20design&RE=50.47.211.46&KEY=98034&Z

Anything else we should know?

Found in DistroAV/DistroAV#455

I suggest that PLUGIN_URL be definable in CMakeList.txt and/or buildspec.json and populated in installer-Windows.iss.in during build time similar to PLUGIN_AUTHOR, etc.

Expected Behavior

packaged ZIP file contains DLL files

Current Behavior

The ZIP file contains only two file as below.
Zip file size: 396710 bytes, number of entries: 3

-rw-a--     6.3 fat   856064 bx defN 20-Jun-27 11:51 obs-plugins/64bit

The files 32bit and 64bit are not directories but looks like PDB files.

Steps to Reproduce

I think buiid_config would be relevant to this issue.

build_config: RelWithDebInfo

1. I copied files from obs-plugintemplate to my project (named obs-vnc), and modified something.
2. Build it on azure-pipeline. You can find my build log here. The status is success.
3. After building a plugin, I use zipinfo to look into the contents. The result is as below.

 zipinfo ../azure/obs-vnc/windows_build/obs-vnc-9330329-Windows.zip 
Archive:  ../azure/obs-vnc/windows_build/obs-vnc-9330329-Windows.zip

Additional information

Maybe OR that are used at command add_custom_command in CMakeLists.txt does not work.
I removed if condition to execute the command all the time, then the ZIP file contains the DLL files.

Expected Behavior

The folder isn't included in the zip, unless that's intended.

Current Behavior

The .ccache folder is included in the zip archive, which can significantly increase the file size. For tuna it's 116MB vs. 7MB unzipped and 19.5MB vs. 2MB compressed. It doesn't make much of a difference in smaller plugins but tuna statically links against two larger libraries which increases the size of the .ccache folder by a lot.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Let the CI run
2. Download the obs-plugintemplate-1.0.0-sources-[commit hash], i.e. this one
3. Extract it

Expected Behavior

The MacOS template build script should run without error producing the packaged MacOS files.

Current Behavior

When running the CI/CD for my plugin I get an error when running the Build Project 🧱 / Build for macOS 🍏 script. The URL where the Package.dmg file is being downloaded downloads a file with a different hash key. I get an error saying that the hash doesn't match. Changing the hash in the buildspec.json file still results in an error.

This is happening with another of my plugins (using an older version of the template) when I rerun an action that worked before. Only the MacOS build are failing (https://github.com/ashmanix/obs-plugin-countdown/actions/runs/6190232337)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Push to the main branch
2. Watch GitHub action run to build packages

A workaround is to add "--no-upgrade" to the brew bundle command in .github/scripts/utils.zsh/check_macos. I'm not sure if this is a good long term solution.

Steps to Reproduce

1. git clone obs-plugintemplate
2. cd into template directory
3. execute .\.github\scripts\Build-Windows.ps1
   ...

Anything else we should know?

I just earlier cloned the obs-studio repo and successfully built obs using the build scripts.
Then I downloaded the template and this is the result. other than that I cleaned up all previous instances of the build environment

Expected Behavior

I would expect the template to build fine when using functions from obs-frontend-api.h.

Current Behavior

The build fails with:

MSBuild version 17.4.1+9a89d02ff for .NET Framework
...
plugin-main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol obs_frontend_add_event_callback referenced in function obs_module_load [...\obs-plugintemplate\build_x64\obs-plugintemplate.vcxproj]

...\obs-plugintemplate\build_x64\RelWithDebInfo\obs-plugintemplate.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals [...\obs-plugintemplate\build_x64\obs-plugintemplate.vcxproj]

Steps to Reproduce

1. Clone this repo
2. Modify plugin-main.c like so, just adding a simple obs frontend event callback:

#include <obs-module.h>
#include <obs-frontend-api.h>

#include "plugin-macros.generated.h"

void callback(enum obs_frontend_event event, void* data)
{
	(void)data;

	switch(event)
	{
		case OBS_FRONTEND_EVENT_STREAMING_STARTED:
			blog(LOG_INFO, "stream started");
			break;

		case OBS_FRONTEND_EVENT_STREAMING_STOPPED:
			blog(LOG_INFO, "stream stopped");
			break;
	}
}

OBS_DECLARE_MODULE()
OBS_MODULE_USE_DEFAULT_LOCALE(PLUGIN_NAME, "en-US")

bool obs_module_load(void)
{
	blog(LOG_INFO, "plugin loaded successfully (version %s)", PLUGIN_VERSION);

	obs_frontend_add_event_callback(callback, 0);
	return true;
}

void obs_module_unload()
{
	obs_frontend_remove_event_callback(callback, 0);

	blog(LOG_INFO, "plugin unloaded");
}

3. Build the project using .\.github\scripts\Build-Windows.ps1

Anything else we should know?

The following diff fixes the problem. This just moves the obs-frontend-api lookup below some of the other directives. Not sure why it works.

Summary

Check for the existence of the required secrets for macOS signing. If they do not exist. skip those CI actions.

Motivation

The currently included CI pipeline breaks unless you have the ability and license to setup macOS signing and notarization.

A plugin template that includes a CI pipeline, should have that pipeline succeed when run without having to set up anything externally.

Drawbacks

Not sure I can think of one

1. git clone [email protected]:obsproject/obs-plugintemplate.git
2. cd obs-plugintemplate
3. .github/scripts/build-macos.zsh
   ...

Anything else we should know?

I have gotten builds to work by commenting out the following lines in cmake/ObsPluginHelpers.cmake:

#    if(OBS_CODESIGN_LINKER)
#      set(CMAKE_XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_OTHER_CODE_SIGN_FLAGS "-o linker-signed")
#    endif()

and

#    add_custom_command(
#      TARGET ${target}
#      POST_BUILD
#      COMMAND
#        /bin/sh -c
#        "codesign --force --sign \"-\" $<$<BOOL:${OBS_CODESIGN_LINKER}>:--options linker-signed >\"$<TARGET_BUNDLE_DIR:${target}>\""
#      COMMENT "Codesigning ${target}"
#      VERBATIM)

After doing this, I can successfully run .github/scripts/build-macos.zsh and then .github/scripts/package-macos.zsh. After this point, I can install the plugin via obs-plugintemplate-1.0.0-macos-x86_64.pkg, but my OBS does not load it, but this is likely a completely separate issue, and I'm not sure if it's relevant since getting the build to work by commenting out those lines doesn't quite feel right in the first place.

P.S. I have an interesting plugin working when I build it into obs itself, but I can't figure out how to deal with distribution, so I'm excited to use this plugin template, and I apologize if this issue isn't appropriate or is just highlighting my own ignorance :\

• ERROR during build step: builds_obs_plugin

Summary

Currently, the plugin template uses Azure Pipelines. I propose the default CI pipeline use GitHub Actions

Motivation

• Since most of the workflow is on GitHub anyway, It makes more sense to use the Github Actions pipeline.
• No need to sign up for yet another account in order to do CI

Drawbacks

Personally, I can't think of any

Additional Information

The base obs-studio project seems to be using GitHub actions now, as do many of the other plugins I have looked at.
ex.
https://github.com/cpyarger/obs-midi
https://github.com/Palakis/obs-websocket

The releasing script under .github was changed to accept only the tag without "v" prefix (e.g. 1.0.0) though the previous script accept the tag with "v" prefix (e.g. v1.0.0).
Changing the tag specification is very confusing and I want to ask whether this change is expected and why this change is necessary.

and the build throws error : fatal: 'release/27.2' is not a commit and a branch 'test' cannot be created from it
btw where can i find the hash of obs-studio?

Thanks

Summary

I know with the current CI pipeline, the plugins get built out of tree, though personally, I prefer to build in tree as it makes building testing and debugging quite a bit easier.

Motivation

This would allow people to choose to build in or out of tree.

Drawbacks

Slightly more complex cmake for plugins.

Expected Behavior

The CI scripts should create installers and packages and generate a release when a tag is pushed.

Current Behavior

No downloadable binaries are available. The generated release looks like a template only.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Make a commit and push either as pull request or commit on the repo
2. Check the workflow summary.
   
   https://github.com/CodeYan01/source-defaults/actions/runs/3391597432
3. Push a tag on master and see the resulting release.

Expected Behavior

Link expected to work.

Current Behavior

Wasn't able to install obs-ndi with the Windows installer due to this issue, so install did not fully complete. OBS opened with this warning:

But the link goes to a broken page - In fact, the domain itself doesn't seem to work. This NewTek forum post seems to have reported the issue 2 weeks ago.

I tried using the obs-ndi windows zip file contents to install the plugin, but I still get the missing runtime error. I don't know if this is normally installed as part of the Installer EXE and is just missing because install never fully finished? I've looked for an alternate download location for NDIRedistV5 but found nothing; Is there another place to attain it?

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install obs-ndi plugin on a fresh obs install, on a fresh Windows 10 installation (as is my current situation, though loading previously backed up scene collection).
