norihiro/obs-face-tracker 0.2.0 on GitHub

This is a experimental release of Face Tracker for OBS Studio.

This release has a memory leak bug so that the author highly recommend to use 0.2.2 or the latest revision.

Changes

Alpha version of PTZ control feature is added.
Check limitations for known issues.
- In future, I hope it can connect through obs-ptz so that user can use both manual and automatic control.
Reset button to reset current object-tracking status as well.
New property to always show information. It's useful to make a demo of this plugin.

Limitation

Binaries for macOS and Ubuntu are not tested.
- Currently macOS binary has an issue that a dynlib is missing. If you have an issue to load the plugin, please try the previous release 0.1.2.
Currently the plugin works for one face. If there are two or more faces, the plugin might hover back and forth over the faces.
Transition with Duplicate Sources, the tracking may start from the initial condition. Recommended to disable Duplicated Sources so far.
Consumes a lot of CPU. It is recommended to have enough test beforehand to ensure it won't affect encoding.
There is no warranty for the results. Use at your own risk.
Deb package for Ubuntu requires OBS Studio 27 or later. Other binaries work with OBS Studio 26 or later.
