Spout addon V3.0.0 for Blender 3.0.x

Spout for Blender allows to stream spout streams from blender.

This works only for Windows 10 64 bit.

Installation

Please make sure you have the most current Blender 3.0.x installed.

  1. download the addon from the releases

  2. Open Blender > Menu > Preferences > Add-ons > search for and enable the 'Spout' add-on

  3. Press the button to install the SpoutGL library via pip.

  4. Once the SpoutGL library is installed, disable and reenable the addon.

  5. Save and close preferences.

Usage

Currently it is only possible to send Spout streams, but not to receive them.

For streaming you need a Camera object.

The plugin adds a Panel to the Camera properties called 'Streaming Texture'. The following properties are available:

  • The streaming name is default set to the camera name.
  • capture/streaming resolution.
  • show preview inside viewport.
  • use eevee color management (recommended)
  • chose a workspace with the desired render…
