deb plugin is not installed in the correct directory #14

Open displague opened 4 years ago

displague commented 4 years ago

The released Debian package for the OBS plugin does not install the plugin in the correct directory (Ubuntu 19.10 / Eoan).

Work-around is:

cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/obs-plugins
sudo ln -s ../../obs-plugins/v4l2sink.so

Ah! So that's why it wasn't showing up in OBS. Works now! Thanks

@displague May I ask you how you've build the plugin, it does not work for me? Sorry, worked now after clean retry.

Confirmed on Ubuntu 20.04 as well. Thanks for workaround.

Or if you're using Fedora, symlink to ~/.config/obs-studio/plugins/v4l2sink/bin64.

:wave: @displague

On Debian Stretch: Have both linked and simply copied v4l2sink.so into /usr/lib/obs-plugins from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/obs-plugins per the above. Still not seeing 'V4L2 Video Output' or anything like it in the tools pull-down of OBS. Built clones OBS 25.0.7. and this git. Where else can I put this so that OBS will find it??? Or do I need to refresh OBS plugins somehow?? Very frustrating.

alexfornuto commented 4 years ago

@motrengaw do you have a plugins directory in ~/.config/obs-studio/, as I noted for Fedora above?

pturmel commented 4 years ago

Using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with the OBS PPA, this copy of the shared object is not required. The PPA expects OBS plugins to be in /usr/lib/obs-plugins/.

wave @displague

for Fedora the correct path is ~/.config/obs-studio/plugins/v4l2sink/bin/64bit/

https://github.com/CatxFish/obs-v4l2sink/pull/35 looks like the fix for this

I agree and thank you for bringing this up, helped me out!

Should this issue be closed and pointed to #35
