StreamFX adds features to OBS Studio like blur, 3D transforms, virtual greenscreens and more. But the developer has decided to start charging for future releases.

Reply to this comment with any StreamFX alternatives that I missed. I will definitely read it. You can trust me 👀
Heyyy. So. Cool video, it was very fast lol and I'm pretty sure my adhd brain checked out multiple times then warped back and was like whaaaaa. I might have to watch this a few more times to absorb the stuff. Also, the way you had only the outline of you in the chair and not like a whole video box.....uh what was that called? I see alot of gamers with their video like that and I always wondered how its done. Or maybe I'm just dumb and spaced out when you explained it which is a very high possibility. lol. Thanks!
What a bout the Nvidia Nvidia SDK Effects like Video Noise Removal Filter, is there also an alternative or another way to add it into OBS without StreamFX, and without having Nvidia BroadCast Studio running in the background?
Hello, nice and useful video... now, regarding the blur filter, none of the mask features work :(
Could you tell me what's wrong with the blur filter? Whenever I touch the apply mask function it undoes the blur I set. Is there a part of the code that wasn't put in?
@@twosense7723 I don't know the details, but the person who released the plugin launched an update where all the mask features were completely removed, so I guess they couldn't solve the issue.
Wanting to be paid for your work isn’t bad but the way Xaymar as gone about this has been terrible.
Yep, he made his fanbase flee as fast as possible
Yep a lot of different ways he could have addressed this . This was awfull
bruh, $5 x 10,000 is more than $16.50 x 18. Who would simply pay minimal fee of $5, or even more if they were in a financial position they could afford to show extra appreciation?
How exactly did he go about it?
@@IzzyIkigai yea i just took noticed that he is nearly 8-15k per month from doing this.. clearly alot of people depended on this plugin
I'm sure someone will make a whole complete alternative soon enough
Thanks Nutty, very cool! I never stream, but my OBS is currently set up with almost every one of these features from Stream FX so I will inevitably spend a day setting all of these up at one point only to continue never streaming 💪
I already am doing that so you're not alone lol.
Also, sup Casperr!
I’m all for creators getting paid for their work.
But I wouldn’t have followed the Adobe model lol.
Thanks for the alternatives Nutty!
I’m with you here 👍🏻
Yeah, I use StreamFX but not enough of its features to warrant a hefty monthly subscription. Thanks for this Nutty, just what I needed.
yeah I'd pay like $40 on the high end to just keep it flat out with all future updates. But im not subbing to something that I can easily find free alternatives for.
The creator needs to review his monetary model. Software companies dont ask for more money on software updates, it's just a part of the product. This feels like as soon as this doesnt work with OBS, he wants you to pay him for another month support for future updates.
I wouldn't worry about the blur filter getting taken down. GNU GPL, the license under which Xaymar released the StreamFX source code, specifically allows distribution. Xaymar wouldn't have legal standing to force someone to take it down, assuming the repost is also distributed under GNU GPL, which I just checked, and it is.
damn xaymar is so greedy...he trying to steal things
This is such a nice list to have. I was so confused why my OBS kept breaking after updating and it was StreamFX's dusty old free version conflicting with everything. It was an amazing plugin but happy and willing to use alternatives to keep expenses down. Thanks Nutty!
So hard to believe that they did this for such a powerful software. No good ever comes out of it for any devs who do. Less users, less talk, even if you're getting a better user to buyer ratio. And the less talk, the less users, etc. Such a shame :/
Thank you for these alternatives! This is exactly the video all of us ex-streamfx users needed!
Nah, I understand why it went to paid and everyone else in the real world gets it too. But, the way it was constructed was the downfall not the actual $$.
thanks for all of your content, beast!
hola ricky
no me lo creo. Ricky que opinas de lo de borja y el churumbe?
There is a Lua script called "color curves" in the OBS forums that allowes quite a lot of color grading. It takes a bit of time to get used to and it behaves somewhat like log-wheels instead of the standard lift/gamma/gain. But still you can do a lot with it. Hope this helps :)
Thank you for this content. You do a great job explaining everything and giving examples. Been loving goin through your videos.
Nice! @EposVox is not only great people, but also a good friend! Even as a Creator myself, it always makes me happy when folks that I individually respect give each other attaboys in their videos. Mad props @nutty, and thank you for always providing the due diligence when it comes to creative resources for Creators using OBS! You always not only stay on top of what's happening with all of these different assets that we use, but when unfortunate things happen to them, you work hard at gathering alternatives together so that folks aren't without options, and if it's not said enough, it's mad appreciated!
I am so glad that I have the old version of StreamFX and haven't updated OBS. O__O
Me too, but I’m tired to miss out on the next features of OBS for a couple of StreamFX features
May Exeldro jsut put all together into something called Combined FX for OBS :D
Thanks so much Nutty, didnt get a chance to watch the vod after your initial stream so glad this is finally here
and again, thank you so much for this awesome collection. you hit my wishlist 100%. Namaste
Thank you so much for posting this. I was doing a live stream yesterday where we need to blur our speakers to protect their anonymity, and we accidentally upgraded to OBS 29 and lost Stream FX. We ended up manually changing the focus on the webcam, and I have been searching frantically for new solution as we do not want to pay for this simple feature.
Thank you so much for this! I hadn't gotten around to using StreamFX before it went paid, which is kind of convenient since I can just pick and choose which of these plugins to download and use!
Exactly what I was looking for. Clear and concise video, thank you 👍
Merci c'est exactement se que je voulais trouver comme information. Bon courage pour la suite :)
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS. couldnt believe how many parts of stream fx I relied on until it was gone
Thanks Bro! I was looking for this video! You absolutely rock! Much respect brother.
Didn't know StreamFX was gonna be paid for, So thanks for this vid Nutty! the only things I really used from StreamFX was SDF effects, Blur & Source Mirror. Thankfully you found some alternatives! Good stuff mate!
Losing Source Mirror was huge, great video!
Oh 100%. Very happy with Source Clone!
loved to watch this live. finally upgrading to 29.0.2 glad to put this to use finally
Really appreciate the heads up, Nutty. Thanks!
I needed this a week ago 😂 I found 3D transform on my own, luckily. Thanks Nutty!
Thank you for compiling this
thanks Nutty this is a spectacular vid.. thank you for sharing and researching all of this for us
thank you very much! ive been seeking for blur, but found more)))
HERO. Thank you Nutty! A lot of VTubers were using a dynamic lighting chain with StreamFX so this will really help me work out how to replicate that.
nutty - you and Exeldro both saved my arse with this one. THANKS!!!
Omg, i didn't know that blur filter was ripped out of StreamFX. I was the only filter that i was using so thank you for this !!!
I bet many already said it, but thank you so much for making this vid.
When I updated I lost the 3D-effect/transforming that I use in OBS. I tried to set everything back and reinstall streamfx but it just wouldn't work.
So thanks for helping out!
Been using an Arc A380 as a dedicated AV1 encoder and discovered that it has some pretty awesome camera tools. I would say it is on par easily with the Nvidia tools.
Honestly, the corner pin would work a lot better for my needs, and at the moment the 3D effects one lacks some options I need to align my sources to match the greenscreens I have set up on a video source.
Tho the dynamic mask alternative is also sadly not doing it for me with how it was used previously.
Thanks man this was vey helpful. I've been wanting to get back into twitch
Thanks for the list of plugins to replace StreamFX. I may switch to FreeFX once it's updated for OBS Studio 30, but for now I'll be using these awesome alternatives.
BTW: The blur plugin you recommended has been taken offline, and the creator recommends Composite Blur instead, which has some extra options. It appears to include a motion blur option as well.
Exeldro, I don't know who you are,
I don't know what you want,
but I will find you
and praise you for everything you have done to save the community
Boy people getting greedy.. I mean I dont even think its updated enough to warrant a monthly subscription.. Oh well moving on..
Nice work nutty appreciate your efforts finding all these filter etc for. Us 👍
Lol last line was very funny, you might get a video on alternative ways for your stuff too hehehe
very useful - thank you
Found out about this recently. Really annoyed me cause I'm reinstalling OBS on a new PC and I'm using 29. It was a big help in tweaking my cam view particularly for gamma adjustments in the color grading.
Shaderfilter is a great alternative for a lot of things but, the blur filters are ridiculously unstable at high values. The first blur filter you recommended is perfect so thank you so much for that!
Will also check out some of these others, too. 🙂
There is a Lua script called "Color Curves" on the OBS forums that allowes some adjusting. Though it behaves more like log-wheels and might not be able to adjust the gamma that precisely. But still it might work as a wonky workaround
Thank you very much, I only use blurs and this video helped a ton. - Edit - The blur is missing some features, like dual filtering doesn't let you place the blur wherever you want on the screen, using OBS 29.1.1, can not apply a mask.
I found the same, I was using the blur filter to cover over some chats in FFXIV that I didn't want on-screen. I got around it by making a clone of the game capture source using the Source Clone plugin mentioned in the video, using OBS' transform tools to crop into the section I wanted blurred, getting this positioned pixel-perfect on the scene, and then applying the blur filter to the clone instead. It's not as intuitive, but it works just as well.
@@Loki128 Thats how I fixed it for myself as well. The game was EVE Online but tbh I dont' play it anymore and deleted all my characters so I dont think the feature will matter for me anymore, but it's still a nice feature.
How would they be able to take down someone who took the code Str8 out of an opened sourced code.
Pretty nice, thanks. But as other people mentioned, the blur filter isn't actually the same, because it doesn't have the mask option. I want to use it to hide sensitive info on specific parts of my screen, which makes it kind of worthless for that.
Hi Nutty, thank you for the video, it helps a lot.
However, I still can't update my OBS because the Blur Filter (standalone) doesn't have the "Apply as Mask" or whatever it's called, setting.
This makes it unusable for me in my current setup, I'd love to know if there are other options out there :)
thanks you so much. good work 👍 thanks exeldro
Thanks for this video. There's a lot of people who could not afford to buy effect plugins. Thanks a lot.
Just watched the entire video in 15 seconds, I loved it 🥰
Thanks nutty for your work.
Thanks for all of The contents your a King among Kings
Thanks Nutty, you are a life saver ❤
Thanks from Belgium 👌
As usual, absolutely useful video, man, ¡you are the best! thanks a lot, i really learn a lot from you, greetings from Argentina.
What's the deal with the Blur Filter one. I download the installer and can't seem to get it to work? The plug in is there when I move the .dll file into OBS, but just doesn't work. Any video or info on how to go about this one?
thank you so much ❤
That was fantastic. You are very good at your job.
Super video, thank you!
Many thanks.
Thank you Nutty 🔥
Thx very helpful
Thank you nutty!
THANK YOU!!!
@nuttylmao i have a issue with the blur plugin ive installed it and its just not showing up in the filters what could i be doing wrong?
as a digital artist that regularly uses the mask tool, I got it. Also, thanks! Needed a mirror since SFX went down for pngtubing.
Holy crap what is the filter shown at 5:02 I've been looking for this specifically for ages PLEASE
i used source copy to dropshadow
workes like a charm
border is a bit harder but works aswell
Hi ! Thank you for the video !!
I need help, so I want to blur my in-game tchat, so I was using Stream Effect and tried with this new blur plugin but I can't make it work as before ! Do you know why ? Maybe you can explain how to do it ? Thank you very much !
Best obs youtuber, thank you so much nutty lml
I literally cannot afford a 10.50/mo sub due to being unemployed, but exceldro is coming in clutch. I will likely send him a one-time donation for the work he's done due to my financial situation.
Thank you, Master Nut
Thanks mate
Thanks Nutty, you are continually saving my bacon with these updates!...not sure that makes sense but I'm hungry and I'm going with it!
Great Vid - G.
What about a way to set the keyframe interval to 1.5ms like you could in StreamFX?
you could make a html source and run the html as a node and run the cam through the websource ;)
You are awesome, thank you!
Lovin the content, and the shirt. ;)
sir how to add Vignette Fx On OBS Please
Amazing video!
Hello, that's a nice list, but can you help with an add-on that enhances recording options like StreamFX had ? I am recording in 5120x1440 resolution so i need to use CQP but i need a more elaborate setting for it to work well, otherwise it's laggy.
hey nutty by any chance we can have the plugin 3D Transform for older Versions of OBS? im using V27 but some plugins are only for 28 or newest
In GPU intensive games like Cyberpunk, I found the NVIDIA greenscreen filter hit my framerate pretty hard. (since I don't play at 1080p/1440p, this was felt)
I hope NVIDIA can release it to Linux since that's what I want for OBS server.
Really thx, but blur filter does not working when I set area of blur. Only for the entire source. Tha's bug? I'm using OBS 29.0.2
Thank you so much! You saved me!
These are so helpful! I do want to just point out though, that the 3d transform is not a 1-1.. I'm trying ot use it right now for what I always used the StreamFX for, and because it doesn't have the corner pin, it's not working properly. I'm trying to fit a screen into a television -- so it looks like it's coming through on the tv, and I can't get it to fit perfectly because it just tilts, it doesn't allow me to put the pins precisely so it fits perfectly. I'm always getting blank spots, or some of the video feed coming outside of the tv. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad there is something, but if you could pass on the desire for corner pins, that would be great!
The Mac version installs and then nothing...it doesn't show in the list of filters when I look to apply it to a source - help?
I have the same problem :'(
Thank you for this, this frustrated me so much. I did end up buying the access so I could get the installer. And then cancelled. When I updated to 29 I had no idea this had happened.
I just updated my OBS and it deleted Streamfx and ruined all of my scenes. totally needed this. Thank you!!
Thank you 🙏
TY Nutty!!!!
Do Source Mirror's double the resource use? since its a second lot of the main render(the game being played and what-not)
Anyone know of a blur filter that still allows masking to a certain region of the screen? Like to blur in game chats.
maybe somebody can help me, i have an older mac. Bought this capture hdmi card 4k on amazon for like 40 bucks. I tried it but it shows me a black screen in my obs, it is threw a usb port.
It goes from my ps4 to my capture card, to my monitor and my pc. The capture card works because the ps4 gets shows on my monitor but on my obs it shows a black screen.
Does anyone know what the issue might be?
I'm really confused why my OBS 29 works with StreamFX then?
You are a life saver!
