Release Notes:

v1.0.1 — 30 Oct 2025

• Drop-in install: Third-party DLLs & headers are handled automatically. Just copy the plugin into your project’s Plugins folder. Works in Editor and packaged builds.
• Delay-load DLL: Spout.dll / SpoutDX12.dll are delay-loaded; no more “module could not be loaded” when DLLs aren’t beside the editor or in the Binaries folder.
• Auto DLL discovery: At runtime the plugin looks in Plugin/Binaries, Project/Binaries, then EXE directory (packaged) — no manual copying to the Engine folder.

v1.0.0

• Initial SpoutReceiver component.
• Sender improvements and Blueprint calls.

This script can be used multiple times on multiple scenes at the same time.

How to run:

1- install NodeJS LTS (This was tested using NodeJS v20.11.1 on Windows10 x64). https://nodejs.org/en/download

2- Clone the repository or download and unzip anywhere on your PC.

3- Start OBS Studio WebSocket on port 4455 with no authentication (You can use auth, but you should add the password to main.js in line 111 replacing undefined with 'YOUR_PASSWORD'). Note: Tested on WebSocket v5.x.x and probably won't work with older versions.

4- Run using Launch.bat file.

5- In the command line, enter the scene name and then the main source name.

6- Test by changing the audio activity on each source.

Note: this is so simple use case where you have a big frame for the active speaker and all other sources are in smaller frames, when the audio activity changes it will automatically switch the new active source to be in the big frame and the old active source to the smaller frame.

If you have any problems running it you can start an issue, and I will try to assist asap.
