OBS WebSocket connection issue with OBS Studio 29.0.2 and obs-websocket 4.9.1-compat

[CetoStream]

Hello,

I am having an issue with connecting my Node.js project to OBS Studio using the obs-websocket-js library. I am using OBS Studio 29.0.2 and the obs-websocket 4.9.1-compat plugin.

Here is the code I'm using to connect:

`const OBSWebSocket = require('obs-websocket-js');
const obs = new OBSWebSocket();

obs.connect({
address: 'localhost:4444', // Replace with your obs-websocket address and port if necessary
password: '' // Replace with your obs-websocket password if necessary
})
.then(() => {
console.log('Connected to OBS WebSocket');
})
.catch(err => {
console.error('Error connecting to OBS WebSocket:', err);
});

// Example of listening to an event
obs.on('SwitchScenes', data => {
console.log(New active scene: ${data.sceneName});
});

// Error handler to avoid uncaught exceptions
obs.on('error', err => {
console.error('Socket error:', err);
});`

When I run the code, I get the following error:

Error connecting to OBS WebSocket: SyntaxError: Invalid URL: [object Object]
I have double-checked my obs-websocket settings in OBS Studio, and they seem to be correct. I also tried to check if my firewall or antivirus software is blocking the connection between my Node.js project and obs-websocket, but it does not seem to be the case.

Is there any known issue with this version of OBS Studio and obs-websocket? Or is there something I'm missing in my code?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

` <script>
const socket = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:4444');

	socket.onopen = function(event) {
		console.log('WebSocket is connected.');
		socket.send(JSON.stringify({
			'request-type': 'GetAuthRequired',
			'message-id': '0',
		}));
	};

	socket.onmessage = function(event) {
		console.log('WebSocket message received:', event.data);
	};

	function updateTest() {
		const newValue = '123';
		// Send message to OBS to update the value of the "test" textbox
		socket.send(JSON.stringify({
			'request-type': 'SetTextGDIPlusProperties',
			'source': 'test',
			'text': newValue,
			'message-id': '1',
		}));
