Some new requests have been added for opening UI dialogs.A sample plugin c file with this feature can be found here.We've already added this functionality to obs-browser.If you are an OBS plugin author, we invite you to explore this system as a means of adding further features to your plugins. We added a new "vendor" API to obs-websocket, which allows third-party plugins to extend their plugin's functionality through obs-websocket requests and events.We are also working on a migration guide which will be releasing soon. If you are having trouble migrating your code to 5.x, you are invited to join the Discord server and ask for guidance. Virtually anything possible in 4.x is possible in 5.x.See here for the design goals regarding the 5.x protocol.This is effectively a new protocol, so applications designed to work only with 4.x versions will not work with 5.x versions. The protocol has gotten a revamp, with many QOL improvements over the 4.x protocol.**The default port for obs-websocket 5.x is now 4455.We recommend always keeping authentication enabled, with a password generated by obs-websocket. Password authentication is enabled by default, and generates a secure password for you that you can copy.
