Ubuntu has it’s GLIBC outdated, you’re on… iirc 2.35, while systems like Arch are on 2.42, and yes, the software is made for 3.12

You just need to install python 3.12 (installed by default in Linux altho i think the current version is 3.13, so you need to also install 3.12)
Then in the download page there’s a terminal command that you can run to install the dependencies.
After that you just run “python main.py” in the terminal while on the same folder and it should run.
Other than that if downloading the Windows or Linux version, there’s a file that just double clicking it, will open the software.
And yeah, sorry for that, just noticed and i don’t have that version on my computer to re-upload it atm and i’m so close to a new version so that lol
there is! go to settings>canvas and you can change the background color, there’s a list of them, you also can go to settings>capture to get a secondary capture window so the UI doesn’t appear on the capture!
Oh yeah, i know the issue, it’s OBS, their browser sources are slow af, if you try to use the link on a chrome/firefox browser window, you’ll see it works great, it’s just OBS that it’s slow :(
Oh yeah, sorry about that, you’re using the Browser Source Capture, right?
If you use the same URL on Chrome or another browser, it works as intended but i have to rework it because it loses connection thanks to OBS’s browser, it is slow af
So yeah… i need to think on another way to achieve the same result.
Until then, use window capture and chroma-keying, if you wanna hide the UI to the viewer, toggle “second window for capture” and re-start the software
Oh yeah! that issue of the “not enabled animation still has animation” is fixed in the next version, sorry for taking a while on that, i’m doing too much at the same time lmao.
Interesting, that would explain a lot, i’m a linux user so i don’t use Windows that much apart from a windows computer that i use as a server, there might be something that is making use of it, i would have to do a whole investigation tho…
You mean the lag between the app and OBS when using the browser source? yeah that’s something on OBS that makes it slow and i need to find another way to get the same result, if you open it on a browser it just… works… so yeah, i’ve been struggling with that one lul
Thank you for your support, your insight is really helpful! ñ.ñ
Hey! so sorry, there’s an issue with the camera tracker in the windows version, you can go to %AppData%\PyNGtuber\Data, search and edit the file settings.json, search the value “mouse tracking” and set it to “disabled” or “mouse” if you want to use mouse tracking!
That should fix it!
I’m working on an alternative way of face tracking, be patient ñ.ñ
Hey! yeah the video doesn’t have audio, it was intended as a demo and just that, I’ll be making a full video about it with audio and all.
Tutorials and documentation are coming, but it’s gonna take a while, since I’ve been focusing on code mostly (big update coming!), so… sorry for that 😅, i’ll comment to you here once there’s tutorials and i might add something to signal about it on the software itself!
Hi!, it just won’t open? doesn’t show an error window or something?
Do you know if you changed a setting that made it crash? I mean this as a way to diagnose what happened so i can fix it. If you know i’ll be so grateful! and i’ll be able to help keep your data because:
As a last resort, you can always delete the folder %AppData%/PyNGtuber and that should reset the app!
Hey! sadly that’s not an issue i can fix :/ it happens on some windows systems and idk why tbh…
Maybe i should report it upstream to the toolkit devs…
But, I may have two solutions, they are not great™️ but it’s something:
-
Go and try going to “Settings” then to “Capture” and use a browser source and either add it to OBS or open it on a webbrowser, either should work
-
[Best result but a bit more complex] Go to “Settings” then to “Canvas” and click on the button below that says “Enter canvas editor”, you should be able to see a debug URL at the top, open that address on Chrome and then click con “viewer.html”, that should also get you something you can capture.
Sorry for the inconvenience :/
Yeah the GLIBC thing is an issue with Debian based distros atm, iirc they are on the version 2.35 and the one that PyQt6 needs is the 2.36, the current version on Arch (my system) is 2.40, honestly i’m quite surprised that it’s that outdated.
if you do the command “ldd –version” in the terminal you should see your current version (Ex. ldd (GNU libc) 2.40).
