An upstream commit removed the `vcamEnabled` private data field from being set, so we need to use a new method now. |

obs-websocket
WebSocket API for OBS Studio.
Downloads
obs-websocket is now included by default with OBS Studio 28.0.0 and above. As such, there should be no need to download obs-websocket if you have OBS Studio > 28.0.0.
Binaries for OBS Studio < 28.0.0 on Windows, MacOS, and Linux are available in the Releases section.
Using obs-websocket
It is highly recommended to keep obs-websocket protected with a password against unauthorized control. obs-websocket generates a password for you automatically when you load it for the first time. To change this, open the "obs-websocket Settings" dialog under OBS' "Tools" menu. In the settings dialog, you can enable or disable authentication and set a password for it.
(Psst. You can use --websocket_port(value), --websocket_password(value), --websocket_debug(flag) and --websocket_ipv4_only(flag) on the command line to override the configured values.)
Possible use cases
- Remote control OBS from a phone or tablet on the same local network
- Change your stream overlay/graphics based on the current scene
- Automate scene switching with a third-party program (e.g. : auto-pilot, foot pedal, ...)
