Obs crashes upon launch

[skavem]

Describe the bug

Installing or copying plugin gives the same result - OBS crashes on launch. Reinstalling didn't help. Tried versions 1.1.10 - 1.1.13

To Reproduce

Just trying to install it is all I did.
Hard to reproduce. Seems fine for other users.

Expected behavior

OBS shouldn't crash on launch and "background removal" should appear in filters list.

Additional context

Very glad to see this plugin. Been waiting for something like this since 2015, but sadly now it doesn't work for me. Would so much appreciate any help

Dear @skavem,

I suppose your Windows username has 'special' characters in it.
Even though a patch has applied to the code to fix this issue, the most recent binaries were produced before the fix.

Currently, you are required to compile the plugin in order to use it.

Hi, thank you for explanation. You're right. My username has 'special' cyrillic characters indeed. Tried to compile the plugin, but got following error:

Hello, im also having trouble running obs after the installation of the plugin is completed. Its the first plugin giving me this problem.

i also have "Special characters" on the user, im actually changing it from "Rubén" to "Ruben".
also i dont get how its realted with username as its not installing on that folder

i didnt understand if you have to compile the plugin in every scenario, or just for the special chars issue

Thanks in advance, i would love to be able to use this plugin.

It IS still happening after changing my username

i have managed to fix it
i restored windows and it worked.
i found the reason why its related to the user name. its because some of the config files are stored in there.
so i first tried migrating my user files to another user and switch permissions after. but that was way harder to do since i have got a backup.
So yeah, most probably this bug is due to a path solving error caused by the user special chars

Good Luck on solving it, i offer myself to help
