OBS Studio experts/peeps: I’d like to put my stream assets, scenes, and profile into a git repo as a backup and to enable colleagues to be able to get started with a similar setup.
I use the built-in OBS Studio setting for streaming service (in this case, YouTube connected via Settings, no manual stream key handling).
Is this safe to do in a public repo? I see a YouTube Token and RefreshToken in the exported profile.ini file, for example. Are these secrets? 🤔
The long story is that after trying OBS-Studio on FreeBSD, I immediately notice the virtual camera was not available. I did some research, and the issue was solved in the past but for whatever reason patch that enabled the virtual camera was removed from the port tree. I file a bug in FreeBSD bugzilla, and also email the maintainer of the port with the bug information.
To my surprise the maintainer responded my email and patch OBS-Studio. Now virtual camera is available for everyone using FreeBSD. 🙂
This is how you make it work.
1.Using your terminal navigate to obs-studio port directory.
2. run "make config" and uncheck the browser option and hit enter.
3. run "make install clean"
4. run "webcamd -c v4l2loopback"
5.start obs-studio (The virtual cam button should be present now)
6. Start virtual camera.
Has anyone gotten OBS virtual camera working on FreeBSD?
In the link below there is some information but I cannot get it to work.
