Source API Reference (obs_source_t)
===================================
Sources are used to render video and/or audio on stream. Things such as
capturing displays/games/audio, playing a video, showing an image, or
playing audio. Sources can also be used to implement audio and video
filters as well as transitions. The `libobs/obs-source.h`_ file is the
dedicated header for implementing sources.
.. type:: obs_source_t
A reference-counted video/audio input source.
.. type:: obs_weak_source_t
A weak reference to an video/audio input source.
.. code:: cpp
#include <obs.h>
Source Definition Structure (obs_source_info)
---------------------------------------------
.. type:: struct obs_source_info
Source definition structure.
.. member:: const char *obs_source_info.id
Unique string identifier for the source (required).
.. member:: enum obs_source_type obs_source_info.type
Type of source.
- **OBS_SOURCE_TYPE_INPUT** - Video/Audio Input
- **OBS_SOURCE_TYPE_FILTER** - Filter
- **OBS_SOURCE_TYPE_TRANSITION** - Transition
.. member:: uint32_t obs_source_info.output_flags
Source output capability flags (required).
(Author's note: This should be renamed to "capability_flags")
A bitwise OR combination of one or more of the following values:
- **OBS_SOURCE_VIDEO** - Source has video
Unless SOURCE_ASYNC_VIDEO is specified, the source must include the
:c:member:`obs_source_info.video_render` callback in the source
definition structure.
- **OBS_SOURCE_AUDIO** - Source has audio
Use the :c:func:`obs_source_output_audio()` function to pass raw
audio data, which will be automatically converted and uploaded. If
used with OBS_SOURCE_ASYNC_VIDEO, audio will automatically be
synced up to the video output based upon their mutual timestamps.
- **OBS_SOURCE_ASYNC** - Video is asynchronous (use
OBS_SOURCE_ASYNC_VIDEO instead to automatically combine this flag
with the OBS_SOURCE_VIDEO flag).
- **OBS_SOURCE_ASYNC_VIDEO** - Source passes raw video data via RAM
Use the :c:func:`obs_source_output_video()` function to pass raw
video data, which will be automatically drawn at a timing relative
to the provided timestamp.
If audio is also present on the source, the audio will
automatically be synced to the video based upon their mutual
timestamps.
- **OBS_SOURCE_CUSTOM_DRAW** - Source uses custom graphics calls,
rather than just rendering a single texture.
This capability flag must be used if the source does not use
:c:func:`obs_source_draw()` to render a single texture.
This capability flag is an important hint to turn off a specific
optimization that allows the first effect filter in the filter
chain to render the source directly with that effect filter. The
optimization does not work if there are custom graphics calls, and
the source must be rendered to a texture first before being sent to
the first filter in the filter chain.
(Author's note: Ironically, not many sources render with that
optimization. I should have made it so that the optimization isn't
used by default, and a flag should have been used to turn on the
optimization -- not turn it off).
- **OBS_SOURCE_INTERACTION** - Source can be interacted with by the
user.
When this is used, the source will receive interaction events if
theese callbacks are provided:
:c:member:`obs_source_info.mouse_click`,
:c:member:`obs_source_info.mouse_move`,
:c:member:`obs_source_info.mouse_wheel`,
:c:member:`obs_source_info.focus`, and
:c:member:`obs_source_info.key_click`.
- **OBS_SOURCE_COMPOSITE** - Source composites child sources
When used, specifies that the source composites one or more child
sources. Scenes and transitions are examples of sources that
contain and render child sources.
Sources that render sub-sources must implement the audio_render
callback in order to perform custom audio mixing of child sources.
This capability flag is always set for transitions.
- **OBS_SOURCE_DO_NOT_DUPLICATE** - Source should not be fully
duplicated.
When this is used, specifies that the source should not be fully
duplicated, and should prefer to duplicate via holding references
rather than full duplication.
When functions such as :c:func:`obs_source_duplicate()` or
:c:func:`obs_scene_duplicate()` are called, sources or child
sources with this flag will never be fully duplicated, and will
instead only be referenced.
An example of the type of sources that should not be fully
duplicated are video devices, browsers, and video/audio captures,
as they will either not function correctly or will cause
performance or resource issues when duplicated.
- **OBS_SOURCE_DEPRECATED** - Source is deprecated and should not be
used.
- **OBS_SOURCE_DO_NOT_SELF_MONITOR** - Audio of this source should
not allow monitoring if the current monitoring device is the same
device being captured by the source.
This flag is used as a hint to the back-end to prevent the source
from creating an audio feedback loop. This is primarily only used
with desktop audio capture sources.
.. member:: const char *(*obs_source_info.get_name)(void *type_data)
Get the translated name of the source type.
:param type_data: The type_data variable of this structure
:return: The translated name of the source type
.. member:: void *(*obs_source_info.create)(obs_data_t *settings, obs_source_t *source)
Creates the implementation data for the source.

:param source: Source that this data is associated with
:return: The implementation data associated with this source
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.destroy)(void *data)
Destroys the implementation data for the source.
Async sources must not call obs_source_output_video after returning
from destroy.
.. member:: uint32_t (*obs_source_info.get_width)(void *data)
uint32_t (*obs_source_info.get_height)(void *data);
Returns the width/height of the source. These callbacks are required
if this is a video source and is synchronous.
(Author's note: These should really be consolidated in to one
function, not two)
:return: The width/height of the video
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.get_defaults)(obs_data_t *settings)
void (*obs_source_info.get_defaults2)(void *type_data, obs_data_t *settings)
Sets the default settings for this source.

functions on this object to set default setting
values
.. member:: obs_properties_t *(*obs_source_info.get_properties)(void *data)
obs_properties_t *(*obs_source_info.get_properties2)(void *data, void *type_data)
Gets the property information of this source.
(Optional)
:return: The properties of the source
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.update)(void *data, obs_data_t *settings)
Updates the settings for this source.
(Optional)
:param settings: New settings for this source
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.activate)(void *data)
Called when the source has been activated in the main view (visible
on stream/recording).
(Optional)
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.deactivate)(void *data)
Called when the source has been deactivated from the main view (no
longer visible on stream/recording).
(Optional)
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.show)(void *data)
Called when the source is visible on any display and/or on the main
view.
(Optional)
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.hide)(void *data)
Called when the source is no longer visible on any display and/or on
the main view.
(Optional)
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.video_tick)(void *data, float seconds)

(Optional)
:param seconds: Seconds elapsed since the last frame
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.video_render)(void *data, gs_effect_t *effect)
Called when rendering the source with the graphics subsystem.
If this is an input/transition source, this is called to draw the
source texture with the graphics subsystem.
If this is a filter source, it wraps source draw calls (for example
applying a custom effect with custom parameters to a source). In
this case, it's highly recommended to use the
:c:func:`obs_source_process_filter_begin()` and
:c:func:`obs_source_process_filter_end()` functions to automatically
handle effect-based filter processing. However, you can implement
custom draw handling as desired as well.
If the source output capability flags do not include
OBS_SOURCE_CUSTOM_DRAW, the source must use
:c:func:`obs_source_draw()` to render the source's texture.
:param effect: This parameter is no longer used. Instead, call
:c:func:`obs_source_draw()`
.. member:: struct obs_source_frame *(*obs_source_info.filter_video)(void *data, struct obs_source_frame *frame)

:return: New video frame data. This can defer video data to
be drawn later if time is needed for processing
.. member:: struct obs_audio_data *(*obs_source_info.filter_audio)(void *data, struct obs_audio_data *audio)
Called to filter raw audio data. This function is only used with
audio filters.
:param audio: Audio data to filter
:return: Modified or new audio data. You can directly modify
the data passed and return it, or you can defer audio
data for later if time is needed for processing. If
you are returning new data, that data must exist until
the next call to the
:c:member:`obs_source_info.filter_audio` callback or
until the filter is removed/destroyed
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.enum_active_sources)(void *data, obs_source_enum_proc_t enum_callback, void *param)

source. If the source has children that render audio/video it must
implement this callback. Only used with sources that have tha
OBS_SOURCE_COMPOSITE output capability flag.
:param enum_callback: Enumeration callback
:param param: User data to pass to callback
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.save)(void *data, obs_data_t *settings)
Called when saving custom data for a source. This is a separate
function because sometimes a source needs to know when it is being
saved so it doesn't always have to update the current settings until
a certain point.
(Optional)
:param settings: Settings object to save data to
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.load)(void *data, obs_data_t *settings)

.. member:: void *obs_source_info.type_data
void (*obs_source_info.free_type_data)(void *type_data)
Private data associated with this entry. Note that this is not the
same as the implementation data; this is used to differentiate
between two different types if the same callbacks are used for more
than one different type.
.. member:: bool (*obs_source_info.audio_render)(void *data, uint64_t *ts_out, struct obs_source_audio_mix *audio_output, uint32_t mixers, size_t channels, size_t sample_rate)
Called to render audio of composite sources. Only used with sources
that have tha OBS_SOURCE_COMPOSITE output capability flag.
.. member:: void (*obs_source_info.enum_all_sources)(void *data, obs_source_enum_proc_t enum_callback, void *param)

within this source. If this callback isn't implemented,
enum_active_sources will be called instead. Only used with sources
that have tha OBS_SOURCE_COMPOSITE output capability flag.
This is typically used if a source can have inactive child sources.

General Source Functions
------------------------
.. function:: void obs_register_source(struct obs_source_info *info)
Registers a source type. Typically used in
:c:func:`obs_module_load()` or in the program's initialization phase.
---------------------
.. function:: const char *obs_source_get_display_name(const char *id)
Calls the :c:member:`obs_source_info.get_name` callback to get the
translated display name of a source type.
:param id: The source type string identifier
:return: The translated display name of a source type
---------------------
.. function:: obs_source_t *obs_source_create(const char *id, const char *name, obs_data_t *settings, obs_data_t *hotkey_data)
Creates a source of the specified type with the specified settings.
The "source" context is used for anything related to presenting
or modifying video/audio. Use obs_source_release to release it.
:param id: The source type string identifier
:param name: The desired name of the source. If this is
not unique, it will be made to be unique
:param settings: The settings for the source, or *NULL* if
none
:param hotkey_data: Saved hotkey data for the source, or *NULL*
if none
:return: A reference to the newly created source, or
*NULL* if failed
---------------------
.. function:: obs_source_t *obs_source_create_private(const char *id, const char *name, obs_data_t *settings)
Creates a 'private' source which is not enumerated by
:c:func:`obs_enum_sources()`, and is not saved by
:c:func:`obs_save_sources()`.
Author's Note: The existence of this function is a result of design
flaw: the front-end should control saving/loading of sources, and
functions like :c:func:`obs_enum_sources()` and
:c:func:`obs_save_sources()` should not exist in the back-end.
:param id: The source type string identifier
:param name: The desired name of the source. For private
sources, this does not have to be unique,
and can additionally be *NULL* if desired
:param settings: The settings for the source, or *NULL* if
none
:return: A reference to the newly created source, or
*NULL* if failed
---------------------
.. function:: obs_source_t *obs_source_duplicate(obs_source_t *source, const char *desired_name, bool create_private)

OBS_SOURCE_DO_NOT_DUPLICATE output flag set, this only returns a
new reference to the same source.
:param source: The source to duplicate
:param desired_name: The desired name of the new source. If this is
not a private source and the name is not unique,
it will be made to be unique
:param create_private: If *true*, the new source will be a private
source if fully duplicated
:return: A new source reference
---------------------
.. function:: void obs_source_addref(obs_source_t *source)
void obs_source_release(obs_source_t *source)
Adds/releases a reference to a source. When the last reference is
released, the source is destroyed.
---------------------
.. function:: obs_weak_source_t *obs_source_get_weak_source(obs_source_t *source)
obs_source_t *obs_weak_source_get_source(obs_weak_source_t *weak)
These functions are used to get a weak reference from a strong source
reference, or a strong source reference from a weak reference. If
the source is destroyed, *obs_weak_source_get_source* will return
*NULL*.
---------------------
.. function:: void obs_weak_source_addref(obs_weak_source_t *weak)
void obs_weak_source_release(obs_weak_source_t *weak)
Adds/releases a weak reference to a source.
---------------------
.. function:: void obs_source_remove(obs_source_t *source)
Notifies all reference holders of the source (via
:c:func:`obs_source_removed()`) that the source should be released.
---------------------
.. function:: bool obs_source_removed(const obs_source_t *source)

uint32_t obs_get_source_output_flags(const char *id)
:return: Capability flags of a source
Author's Note: "Output flags" is poor wording in retrospect; this
should have been named "Capability flags", and the OBS_SOURCE_*
macros should really be OBS_SOURCE_CAP_* macros instead.
See :c:member:`obs_source_info.output_flags` for more information.
---------------------
.. function:: obs_data_t *obs_get_source_defaults(const char *id)
Calls :c:member:`obs_source_info.get_defaults` to get the defaults
settings of the source type.
:return: The default settings for a source type
---------------------
.. function:: obs_properties_t *obs_source_properties(const obs_source_t *source)
obs_properties_t *obs_get_source_properties(const char *id)
Use these functions to get the properties of a source or source type.
Properties are optionally used (if desired) to automatically generate
user interface widgets to allow users to update settings.
:return: The properties list for a specific existing source. Free with
:c:func:`obs_properties_destroy()`
---------------------
.. function:: bool obs_source_configurable(const obs_source_t *source)
bool obs_is_source_configurable(const char *id)
:return: *true* if the the source has custom properties, *false*
otherwise
---------------------
.. function:: void obs_source_update(obs_source_t *source, obs_data_t *settings)
Updates the settings for a source and calls the
:c:member:`obs_source_info.update` callback of the source. If the
source is a video source, the :c:member:`obs_source_info.update` will
be not be called immediately; instead, it will be deferred to the
video thread to prevent threading issues.
---------------------
.. function:: void obs_source_video_render(obs_source_t *source)
Renders a video source. This will call the
:c:member:`obs_source_info.video_render` callback of the source.
---------------------
.. function:: uint32_t obs_source_get_width(obs_source_t *source)
uint32_t obs_source_get_height(obs_source_t *source)
Calls the :c:member:`obs_source_info.get_width` or
:c:member:`obs_source_info.get_height` of the source to get its width
and/or height.
Author's Note: These functions should be consolidated in to a single
function/callback rather than having a function for both width and
height.
:return: The width or height of the source
---------------------
.. function:: obs_data_t *obs_source_get_settings(const obs_source_t *source)
:return: The settings string for a source. The reference counter of the

:return: The name of the source
---------------------
.. function:: void obs_source_set_name(obs_source_t *source, const char *name)

Helper function used for rendering transitions. This function will
render two distinct textures for source A and source B of the
transition, allowing the ability to blend them together with a pixel
shader in a desired manner.
The *a* and *b* parameters of *callback* are automatically rendered
textures of source A and source B, *t* is the time value
(0.0f..1.0f), *cx* and *cy* are the current dimensions of the
transition, and *data* is the implementation's private data.

Helper function used for transitioning audio. Typically you'd call
this in the obs_source_info.audio_render callback with its
parameters, and use the mix_a_callback and mix_b_callback to
determine the the audio fading of source A and source B.
Relevant data types used with this function:
.. code:: cpp
typedef float (*obs_transition_audio_mix_callback_t)(void *data, float t);
---------------------
.. function:: void obs_transition_swap_begin(obs_source_t *tr_dest, obs_source_t *tr_source)
void obs_transition_swap_end(obs_source_t *tr_dest, obs_source_t *tr_source)
Swaps two transitions. Call obs_transition_swap_begin, swap the
source, then call obs_transition_swap_end when complete. This allows
the ability to seamlessly swap two different transitions without it
affecting the output.
For example, if a transition is assigned to output channel 0, you'd
call obs_transition_swap_begin, then you'd call obs_set_output_source
with the new transition, then call
:c:func:`obs_transition_swap_begin()`.
