OBS plugin used from local folder #105

Closed msj121 closed 1 year ago

msj121 commented 1 year ago

Is there a way to use the obs plugin from a local folder instead of loading it from the ~/Library folder. This would bypass the need for the user to install obs as it can be packaged with the python app in relative folder.

Thanks! This would help me a lot.

You need admin permissions to install the DAL plugin (copying to /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL), so I guess in theory it may work. Feel free to experiment with it but I won't support this method as an official approach as it requires poking into OBS' distribution package and doing low-level operations, something that can easily be messed up.
