Hey all,
TL;DR - Update your browser sources.
A little background: I produce shows for a theater school which, because of COVID, has moved online. I use OBS on my computer to give a better approximation of a theater show rather than just Zoom readings. The shows include both pre-recorded A/V as well as Live A/V.
When the most recent update launched, I installed it on my computer. Two days later we had a show, and in streaming to YouTube the audience was receiving local files, audio and video, without problem, but the Browser Source was only producing video. No audio. After extensive, unsuccessful troubleshooting we cancelled the show for Thursday evening. OBS.ninja was feeding video fine through my OBS and on to the YouTube Live ingress server.
Without going into a long, sordid story, the issue was that the Scene Collection was written prior to the update, and the references to Browser Sources were phrased in a language that changed between the old and new versions of OBS. As a result, video yes, audio no. Even my locally sourced webcam wouldn't produce audio via OBS.ninja. My solution was to re-add the appropriate Browser Sources to each scene in which they appeared, and it resolved the issue.
All relevant logs attached, if you're in for a laugh.
Mostly I just want everyone to know that if they are going live in the next couple days, and are using Scene Collections written prior to the update, you'll need to update your browser sources (maybe) (if you have them).
