[Feature request] add a browser renderer #75

Open dgdevel opened 4 years ago

dgdevel commented 4 years ago

Ovrdrop actually requires to have the window on top to grab its image, so I was wondering if it is possible to add a webkit renderer like OBS does when adding a browser source. Thank you Daniele

I can look into it, but I wouldn’t get my hopes up. OVRdrop runs on Unity, and a lot of these capture methods don’t work under Unity :(.

Is this related to the way OBS can capture open windows that are underneath other windows? The capture method that uses WIndows 10 1903+? Because it would be INCREDIBLE if OVRDrop could be updated to work with this. It's a shame it's been abandoned, there's been a lot of potential progress to Windows that could improve it dramatically.

OVRdrop has not been abandoned. I am still working on it through both public and private betas. I don’t know much about the inner workings of OBS, but the reason I’ve had difficulty using similar capture methods has to do with the way Unity utilizes the GPU. Using the same capture methods would likely require removing Unity entirely, which is quite impractical at this point.
