Obs - Can't capture "only" ppInk output #21
Comments
Hi @AntonyGarand ,
This use case seems quite acceptable but may be improved with a icon in the toolbar to send the start/stop shortcuts. PS : the transparent drawing window is created when, and the windows You've "captured" is the launcher window which is hidden when the toolbar is displayed |
actually the problem of selecting the newly created window is due to the fact that the floating window is hidden and not destroyed. Give me your feed back |
A) about toolbar_height : I have worked only on the config.ini. the double decimal separator is also possible in options dialog. Try this new version. |
Hi @AntonyGarand, 2- By design, gink is a window covering the whole desktop. changing to two window is a major change that requires to much redesign and test to take the risk for a very tiny usecase. 3- I've also failed in using game capture. looking in the help, they are talking about directX, not used in gInk/ppInk. 4- the outlining you've observed seems quite reduced with my setup. however, when drawing with any color over a white window, no outlining is observed. I'm quite convinced this is produced by OBS filter 5 - On my computer the option to disable cursor capture with windows 10 is working. can you double check I'm wondering weither it will be useful to have more integration with OBS (button for On/Off recording ?) |
Replace Hiding CallForm window by closing in order to make only Displaywindow visible and transfert OBS focus onto this window refer to issue #21 for more details
@AntonyGarand version 1.3 alpha1 is now issued. is it ok for you ? |
Hey! I'll try it out later this evening, but if it's the same as it was previously with #21 (comment) it should be fine 😁 |
I confirm that version 1.3 alpha 1 works well with OBS! Regarding the previous points: Most of them are OBS related and not a bug in PPInk itself, I was mostly writing them to document them if someone else wanted a head start on working with it! Thanks for the great work, and feel free to close the issue as it's pretty much resolved now 😁 |
I would have liked to have some feed back on obs control. You have some issue with it? Else can you test ffmpeg. Thks |
check ffmpeg is installed. the command line considers that ffmpeg is in the path. if not add the path without white space(use 8.3 names if required) before ffmpeg.exe. The command line is adjustable from the option dialog, video tab. |
Hi @AntonyGarand, |
get OBS status at opening and also introduces streaming status to tracking ,see #21
Hi @AntonyGarand, |
without feed backs I'm closing this issue |
This is an issue which is also on gInk, and I'm not quite sure how either OBS or ppInk can solve this issue from a technical standpoint.
Opening the issue here as it seems to be the most active and advanced fork, but this might be a change that wants to be on both repos.
OBS is a video streaming and recording software which allows you to mix and match inputs, such as windows and monitors, to output a single video output.
Using this tool, ideally, I would like to draw on my screen and record the ppInk layer as well as the base layer separately, allowing me to isolate these.
Epic pen creates a "window" with only the drawing on it, which allows OBS to record it independently, such as demonstrated in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIU1XN9vkOA&t=2m05s
Using ppInk, it seems like there are two modes it uses: One where we don't have an active canvas, and the one where we do.
First, when we're not drawing, I can find the ppInk executable, but can only see the marker icon, which is fine in itself.
Second, while drawing on the screen, nothing seems to be captured, even though I'm drawing and have the toolbar open.
Note that while using a complete display capture, aka. recording everything on the screen, I do see the output of ppInk, but this doesn't allow much flexibility when using layers.
An example of what can't be done while using a display capture is draw "over" the other OBS sources, such as the webcam.
Therefore, I'm wondering:
Thanks a ton!
