OBS Background Removal Filter WITHOUT A Green Screen! (Spoiler: It’s Not NVIDIA Broadcast)

Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Xsplit all have a feature to remove the background of your webcam without a green screen.

OBS has a couple different ways to do the same thing, but the most popular way is to use NVIDIA Broadcast with an RTX graphics card.

But there is now an OBS plugin that adds a virtual green screen filter which you can use with any source. Even better, you don’t need to use NVIDIA Broadcast and you don’t need an RTX card! Although, you’ll still get better results with an RTX card...

Alright that’s three paragraphs. I deserve subs now.

Yo share this video with all your friends, yeah? I worked hard on this lmao

[Deathwept]

One of the coolest ways to use these kinds of effects, ever! Thanks Nutty! I have a green screen setup I can do I wanted or needed but after seeing how you did the layering with the camera source… that is SO much cooler and more versatile! I can’t wait to use it!

you get a giant virtual hug for this. one of the reasons I was dreading coming back to streaming was dragging in my giant greenscreen. This will help tons. love your content!! keep it up!

oh go follow you on twitch!!!! keep things weird!!!

[niklas]

Congrats on 100k and much love for all the tips and tricks you showed us to improve/innovate our streams!!!!

Dude. You just saved me some actual IN GAME performance. I have loved Broadcast since it launched but it is hard to deny that it actually impacts gaming performance for CERTAIN games. This should free up that little bit of a performance hit for me. I was looking for this EXACT solution.

Beat me to it 😂
Amazing video man!! Eager to see what kinda crazy stuff we'll make with this feature :)

Huge thank you for the shoutout too ❤❤ Caught me off guard when I saw myself :D

This is pretty sweet Nutty, can't seem to get video filter on the source mirror just yet, but will try it more when I get back to my main rig. (It'll be a non issue as I have RTX on that machine anyways, but I'm curious) Thanks for showing off the possibilities of this!

[mdx]

The time has come where I actually want to use this so thank you very much!

[HooksHollands]

THANK YOU...this is awesome! You rock, Nutty! 😎

[gambateyo]

Great tips and even better delivery. You're one of few that can take a 10m vid and make it seem like 3. Swish!

[mushiiies]

helll yeah, been waiting for this one!

[StrayingBat]

I love Notion! I've been using it as a way to track my goals, keep track of all of my ideas for twitch, AND I even have a folder for youtube tutorials (a bunch of yours are in there) that I would like to implement into twitch - then I keep track of those numbers to see how successful the new things are. Its been a really useful tool for me so far. Also, thank you for this tutorial!! I now have a bunch of new ideas for my streams <3

Insanely helpful! So I tried the NVIDIA broadcast bg removal feature and for some reason it made my mouse laggy af. I tried it a bunch of different ways and it messed with my mouse every time. Running it this way works flawless!

[AndyVNguyen]

damn big dawg hit 100k congrats! always dropping knowledge and we love you for it

[akaDAD]

Oh it’s about time, been wanting something like this for a while now. Lots of ideas to put to use and some to test out. Thanks for the update

[klm]

Thankyou Nutty for this Video. Just want to give a small idea to other streamers out there that you can also use any Particles or snow overlays using this filter behind them and it will look so good :)

[SuperFastHarry]

For those that install the OBS plugin and are highly confused as to the background colour setting missing - the developer has made the feed auto transparent so no need to set a colour - unfortunately this strips out those advanced use cases and mirroring as discussed in the video. Also not the filter is not in Audio/Video but in Effects.

[SpaceDuckGG]

I love your vids, you always have the most creative ideas!

[Spiriax]

Thanks Nutty! Can't wait to play around with this. Also that burp sounded like rattling bones or something.

[BlunderFNT]

Subscribing to you was the best decision I ever made! Love your content! Also congrats on 100K dude you deserve it 🎉
