🚧 EXPERIMENTAL 🚧
CleanStream is an OBS plugin that cleans live audio streams from unwanted words and utterances using AI.

- Background Removal remove background (virtual green screen) from video
- ✨ NEW: URL/API Source fetch API data and display it on screen as a video source
Check out the latest releases for downloads and install instructions.
This video walkthrough (YouTube) will explain various parts of the code of you're looking to learn from what I've discovered.
- OBS version 28+ (download)
We do not support older versions of OBS since the plugin is using newer APIs.
CleanStream is an OBS plugin that cleans live audio streams from unwanted words and utterances, such as "uh"s and "um"s, and other words that you can configure, like profanity.
See our resource on the OBS Forums for additional information.
It is using a neural network (OpenAI Whisper) to predict in real time the speech and remove the unwanted words.
It's using the Whisper.cpp project from ggerganov to run the Whisper network in a very efficient way.
But it is working and you can try it out. Please report any issues you find. 🙏 (submit an issue)
We're working on improving the plugin and adding more features. If you have any ideas or suggestions, please open an issue.
GPU support is coming soon. Whisper.cpp is using GGML which should have GPU support for major platforms. We will bring it to the plugin when it's ready.
The plugin was built and tested on Mac OSX, Windows and Ubuntu Linux. Help is appreciated in building on other OSs and packages.
The building pipelines in CI take care of the heavy lifting. Use them in order to build the plugin locally.
Start by cloning this repo to a directory of your choice.
Using the CI pipeline scripts, locally you would just call the zsh script.
$ ./.github/scripts/build-macos.zsh -c Release -t macos-x86_64The above script should succeed and the plugin files will reside in the ./release folder off of the root. Copy the files to the OBS directory e.g. /Users/you/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/obs-plugins.
To get .pkg installer file, run
$ ./.github/scripts/package-macos.zsh -c Release -t macos-x86_64(Note that maybe the outputs in the e.g. build_x86_64 will be in the Release folder and not the install folder like pakage-macos.zsh expects, so you will need to rename the folder from build_x86_64/Release to build_x86_64/install)
Use the CI scripts again
$ ./.github/scripts/build-linux.shUse the CI scripts again, for example:
> .github/scripts/Build-Windows.ps1 -Target x64 -CMakeGenerator "Visual Studio 17 2022"The build should exist in the ./release folder off the root. You can manually install the files in the OBS directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins.
