description	Follow the upstream plugin template and OBS version for this plugin.

IMPORTANT

Use cmd or bash instead of powershell when run git or curl commands. Run in powershell may failed.

Following the steps to upgrade

Update the plugin template

The official git repository of plugin template is https://github.com/obsproject/obs-plugintemplate.git. My repository merges its commits. You can pull its latest commits and merge them into master. Follow these instructions when resolving merge conflicts:

1. Always use my README.md
2. I have changed the github action workflow files, so as the build scripts (.sh and .ps1 files). For those parts that I commented and the upstream has changed, uncomment them and merge the upstream changes, then comment them again. For those parts that I commented and the upstream has not changed, just keep them commented.

Commit the merge after resolving the conflicts.

Update OBS version

1. The official OBS repository is https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio.git, search for tags to find the latest release version.
2. The release page is like https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/releases/tag/32.1.0. Replace 32.1.0 with the latest version you found. Update dependency metadata under CMakePresets.json (vendor.obsproject.com/obs-studio.dependencies) with the new version and hash.
3. Download the zip format of the source code package.

Update the OBS deps

Extract the downloaded OBS source package and read CMakePresets.json in repo root.

Use vendor.obsproject.com/obs-studio.dependencies as source of truth.

Update this repository's buildspec.json entries (Qt, obs-deps, and related hashes).

Try build this project

This project is build with CMake. Use the windows-x64 preset when run in Windows.

Troubleshooting (important)

If OBS version/deps in buildspec.json were updated but build still uses old OBS source:

1. Do fresh configure before build (plain build may reuse old cache and skip dependency setup).
2. Prefer:
   • cmake --preset windows-x64 --fresh
   • cmake --build --preset windows-x64 --config RelWithDebInfo
3. Check .deps/ cache:
   • .deps/.dependency_obs-studio_x64.sha256
   • .deps/obs-studio-<version>/
   • .deps/<version>.zip
4. If still stuck on old OBS version, remove old OBS entries in .deps/ and rerun fresh configure.
