This is a minor change release.

Changes in 0.5.1

  • Face Tracker Source is newly added.
    Previously, Face Tracker works as a filter. Now users have a choice to have another source.
    This will fix the issue that the tracking start from the initial condition at transition if Duplicate Sources is set.
  • Filter: Fixed width and height if Stop tracking faces is set and Aspect setting is different from the source.
  • PTZ: Added tracking target indicator (yellow +) as same as Face Tracker Filter.

Changes in 0.5.0

  • Added a new property to adjust tracking threshold
  • Added a new feature to crop image for face detection (not effective for tracking)
  • Changes only for PTZ
    • Fixed an issue that zoom control was not working when sending through obs-ptz.
    • Stop camera before exiting OBS Studio or before removing the filter.
    • Added a new property to attenuate after lost face
    • Removed deprecated ptz devices (use obs-ptz)
    • Separated PID control parameters for each axis

Limitation

  • Binaries for Windows, macOS, and Ubuntu are not tested.
  • Currently the plugin works for one face. If there are two or more faces, the plugin might hover back and forth over the faces.
  • 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. Binary packages for Windows and macOS work with OBS Studio 26 or later.
  • I heard some anti-virus software detect the installer. If you see your anti-virus software alarms the installer, please file to issue page with the information of (a) anti-virus software and (b) type of the virus (either text or screen shot is ok).
    I'd like to note that all binaries are build on a Microsoft-hosted machine and the whole recipe is available on azure-pipelines.yml.
