Hey. :)

When I start OBS I get these popup errors:

Xinerama extension unavailable. We don't handle this yet.
error: Failed to load basic.ini

I have two monitors and both have there own X screen. I'm don't have Xinerama enabled to my knowledge so I'm not sure whats going on here. any ideas?

Well, the error does indicate that you need Xinerama, so most likely the problem is (if I understand you correctly) the fact that you do not have Xinerama installed/enabled.

Well now I feel dumb, I thought it couldn't find or couldn't use the Xinerama extension and for some reason i never thought it might need Xinerama enabled. It's starting up fine now after enabling Xinerama. Thanks. :)
