[0:00] earlier this year I released a video
[0:01] about the different tracking types for
[0:03] 2D vtubers and we have a big update to
[0:06] go over here I mentioned a plugin called
[0:08] V Bridger which was currently the best
[0:10] tracking type but they recently added
[0:12] webcam support we're going to test the
[0:14] webcam support and see how it holds up
[0:16] so I'm currently using my iPhone for the
[0:19] tracking here and you can see my V
[0:20] Bridger window on the top left here I
[0:23] mentioned in my previous video that this
[0:25] is the current best tracking that we can
[0:27] get using iPhone and V Bridger gives you
[0:29] very smooth tracking very accurate
[0:31] tracking and also allows you to use the
[0:34] extra key forms on areas such as your
[0:36] mouth so we can do things like this
[0:38] which you ordinarily can't do with the
[0:40] other tracking types let's go ahead and
[0:42] look at our webcam options now so to get
[0:45] to the webcam options in V Bridger we
[0:47] need to go to this drop- down menu and
[0:49] our two webcam options are at the very
[0:51] bottom here it's Nvidia tracking and
[0:54] media pipe and video tracking requires
[0:56] you to have an RTX video card so if you
[0:59] don't have one of those media pipe is
[1:01] the option for you we're going to start
[1:03] off by looking at Nvidia tracking so
[1:05] here is the Nvidia tracker and this is
[1:08] currently using my webcam an important
[1:10] thing to note if you're planning to use
[1:12] the RTX tracking you need to have
[1:14] downloaded the vtu studio Nvidia
[1:16] broadcast tracker which is free on the
[1:19] steam store if a Tracker isn't working
[1:22] for you you may need to go into V
[1:24] Bridger settings and locate your vtube
[1:26] studio so out of the box the tracking is
[1:29] already a lot better than v b tracking
[1:32] through vtube Studio I'll put up a
[1:34] comparison on the screen real fast right
[1:38] now you may notice that your movements
[1:40] may be a little bit more jittery a good
[1:43] way to fix this is by going into V
[1:45] Bridger itself you can see the parameter
[1:47] list on the top right here simply go
[1:50] through these select them and you can
[1:52] turn up the smoothing which will remove
[1:54] some of the Jetta using webcam tracking
[1:56] through V Bridger you may be required to
[1:58] turn up the smoothing on quite a few of
[2:00] these parameters one of the biggest
[2:02] advantages with using V Bridger with the
[2:05] Nvidia tracking is that we can still use
[2:07] a lot of our extra parameters for
[2:09] example we have a lot of extra
[2:11] parameters set up in our mouth such as
[2:13] shrugging and puckering and good news
[2:15] for my glasses users out there I'm
[2:17] currently wearing my glasses right now
[2:20] and as you can see there's not really
[2:22] any difference between when I wasn't
[2:24] wearing my glasses and when I'm
[2:26] currently using my glasses it's kind of
[2:28] wild to see webcam tracking with
[2:30] completely lossless quality for glasses
[2:32] users next up let's take a little look
[2:34] at media pipe you don't need to download
[2:36] anything extra to use media pipe through
[2:38] V Bridger so this should just work
[2:40] Straight Out of the Box uh one thing I'm
[2:43] noticing right off the bat is that my
[2:45] eyes are behaving a little bit funky and
[2:47] my eyebrows as well if you are planning
[2:49] to use media pipe and these things
[2:51] bother you you can link your eyebrows
[2:54] and your eye movements together so that
[2:56] they're not looking a little bit
[2:58] lopsided all the time another another
[3:00] big thing I do notice as well is that my
[3:03] mouth tracking is not as good as the
[3:05] other two there is a easy fix for this
[3:08] however which I'll go over in just a
[3:10] moment and much like with vrtx tracking
[3:12] you are going to have to turn up the
[3:14] smoothness on the parameters here
[3:17] however much like the RTX tracking the
[3:19] big Advantage we do have here is that we
[3:22] can use our extra parameters again so we
[3:24] can do all the fancy things with our
[3:25] mouth one thing I do notice with the
[3:27] media pipe is that it doesn't track the
[3:30] shrugging very well and it doesn't track
[3:32] the jaw very well however in comparison
[3:35] with the base vtube Studio media pipe
[3:37] tracking this is quite a bit of an
[3:40] upgrade so now I'm going to test it with
[3:42] my glasses on and I'm already kind of
[3:45] noticing that it's struggling with my
[3:47] eye blanks you may be able to get around
[3:50] this by tweaking the parameters but your
[3:54] eyes are always going to look a little
[3:55] bit funky so another update that V
[3:58] Bridger added that will help with the
[3:59] lip sync especially on your media pipe
[4:02] tracking here is that it now allows you
[4:04] to use your microphone for mouth inputs
[4:07] to access this we need to press load and
[4:10] you're going to need to load the file
[4:11] which says V Bridger VSM AR kit so now
[4:15] when I talk my mouth forms are going to
[4:17] be overwritten by the microphone you may
[4:20] need to tweak this in your parameter
[4:21] settings cuz as you can see my mouth is
[4:23] opening up way too wide so I turned down
[4:26] my mouth sensitivities and as you can
[4:28] see now it's a little bit more realistic
[4:31] another thing to note with this mouth
[4:32] tracking is that you're going to need to
[4:34] turn down your audio delay otherwise
[4:36] your mouth is going to be very off sync
[4:38] of your audio the recommended amount for
[4:41] this mouth tracking is actually minus
[4:43] 500 milliseconds however I recommend
[4:45] going in and actually trying it out and
[4:48] see what works for you specifically the
[4:50] main disadvantage to using this is that
[4:53] we can't really emote very well when
[4:55] we're talking since our mouth face
[4:57] tracking is being overwritten but by our
[5:00] microphone it won't track your smiling
[5:02] or frowning whilst you're
[5:04] talking so here are my overall Thoughts
[5:07] with this new update V Bridger is now
[5:09] the best form of tracking that we can
[5:11] get for both webcam and iPhone please do
[5:14] note that there are some downsides to
[5:16] using it for one it costs a little bit
[5:18] extra than just using the vtube studio
[5:21] base it will be an extra window to run
[5:23] whilst you're using your tracking which
[5:26] might make things a little bit more
[5:27] Messier on your PC or may slow things
[5:30] down on lower end PCS plus one of the
[5:33] main benefits of V Bridger being the
[5:35] extra parameters means a little bit more
[5:37] work on your end or your rigger's end to
[5:40] get all of those extra parameters set up
[5:42] my co-i memberships are now open it's a
