Cannot uninstall #136

[ ] Face Tracker (filter)
[ ] Face Tracker PTZ (a filter to control PTZ camera)
[x] Face Tracker Monitor

Describe your problem It looks like a monitor was installed in my control bar that allows for various camera effects, and alters the close/minimize functions of MacOS windows, but I did not need or ask for those. I would like to get rid of that monitor and other components that don't live inside OBS, but I cannot find the files the package installer created to delete them. Where would I find these?

Thanks!

I'm sorry that all sources and filters are put together into one binary file. This is because a lot of code is shared each other. So you cannot uninstall partially, for now.

I will consider options to hide these sources.

By the way, Face Tracker Monitor is a source to display internal state such as the location of the detected face while other Face Tracker (source, filter, or PTZ) is live.

To be clear, this blue icon is the "monitor" I was talking about. It's persistent in the Mac menu bar even when OBS is closed, and seems to also affect every app OBS captures (even so far as to change their name, breaking scripts I once used while streaming).

Is there an "uninstall all" option?

I'm sorry that I don't know what this icon is. The plugin is just running inside OBS and there should not be anything else outside OBS. What will happen if you click the icon or interact with the icon?

The monitor provided by obs-face-tracker is a dock window like below, that can be added from OBS's Tools menu.

I'm feeling quite silly - did some digging to see if any other software had been installed just before or after, saw an Apple update, and it turns out the icon I highlighted is part of a feature that comes built-in to Mac OS 14, which I had just upgraded to around the same time. Thanks for bearing with me!
