The stub source becomes an actual streamer-tools camera. On create it reads
server URL / room slug / read key / camera identity from obs_data_t, mints a
subscribe-only token through ApiClient, connects LiveKitSession, and pushes
decoded frames into obs_source_output_video / obs_source_output_audio. The
source is now OBS_SOURCE_ASYNC_VIDEO | OBS_SOURCE_AUDIO |
OBS_SOURCE_DO_NOT_DUPLICATE with an OBS_ICON_TYPE_CAMERA icon.
The file is C++ rather than C now: the core library's API is C++ and the C ABI
shim existed only to avoid that. obs-module.h already declares the module
entry points extern "C", so nothing is lost.
Properties UI: server URL, room slug, a masked read-key field (it is a
credential and is masked everywhere else in streamer-tools), a camera dropdown,
a "Refresh camera list" button, and a status line.
- The dropdown is built from a cache the worker keeps warm on every connect,
so opening properties never blocks on the network. The button is the
explicit way to force a round trip, with a shortened 5s timeout -- for which
ApiClient's two calls gained a timeout_ms parameter.
- The currently-selected identity is always in the list, labelled "(not in
this room)" if absent, so OBS cannot silently clear a working setting just
because the room happens to be dark.
- The status line is the OBS_TEXT_INFO property's description (which is what
OBS actually renders) and switches to the warning info type on a real error.
Threading: OBS's UI and graphics threads are never blocked on the network.
Each source owns a worker thread that mints, connects, and reconnects with
exponential backoff (1s -> 30s), waking early on any settings change via a
generation counter. Frames are pushed from LiveKitSession's reader threads
directly; obs_source_output_video/_audio are thread-safe.
Two details that matter operationally:
- A null frame is pushed whenever the session leaves Connected, so a camera
that stopped publishing clears instead of leaving its last frame on screen.
Leaving stale media up is precisely the failure this plugin exists to avoid.
- The SDK's own logging is routed into OBS's log file via
livekit::setLogCallback, instead of stderr where a director would never
see it. The adapter also logs the first frame and every later geometry
change, so a log answers "did video ever arrive, and at what size".
Packaging: the build now stages a runnable layout into build/package/ --
the module (RPATH $ORIGIN / @loader_path, so it resolves the LiveKit
libraries from beside itself rather than from the build tree), liblivekit +
liblivekit_ffi, the locale data, and the licence files. third_party/livekit/
carries client-sdk-cpp's Apache-2.0 LICENSE and NOTICE from the pinned tag.
Its README records a correction to the design doc: the "bundled LICENSE.md
with ~28 third-party licence blocks" the doc expects DOES NOT EXIST at
v1.10.1 -- not in any of the five release archives (which contain only
include/, lib/, bin/ and build-info.json) and not in the repo at that tag,
which has only LICENSE and NOTICE. The aggregated third-party notice covering
the WebRTC/OpenH264 code inside liblivekit_ffi.so has not been located, and
that is flagged as an open licensing question rather than papered over.
Verified on Ubuntu 24.04 against real libobs 30.0.2, a real
livekit-server 1.13.6, and a stand-in API serving plugin.routes.ts's exact
shapes, using a headless libobs harness (obs_startup + obs_reset_audio +
obs_reset_video + obs_open_module + obs_source_create):
registered=1 output_flags=0x87
[streamer-tools-camera] connected to ws://127.0.0.1:7880 as
obs:main-room:qY85r9D0PaPt, watching cam-test
[streamer-tools-camera] video frame 640x360 I420
camera dropdown has 3 items:
[0] (no camera selected) =
[1] Test Camera = cam-test
[2] Dark Camera (offline) = other-cam
status: connected (info_type=0)
and with a deliberately wrong read key:
status: unknown room slug, or the read key is wrong or has been rotated
(info_type=1)
with retry-and-backoff and no crash. ctest: 6/6 passed.
Still unverified, and the README says so plainly: the OBS GUI on any platform,
macOS/Windows beyond compiling, A/V sync, and end-to-end latency.
