I read post from bazukas (https://github.com/bazukas/obs-linuxbrowser). He said that "Good news! Starting with version 25, OBS Studio ships with browser source that work on Linux. I recommend you to use that and report any issues at obs-browser repo and/or official discord community." But i dont have browser source plugin on fresh installed obs 25.0.3 on my debian bullseye. And when i use bazukas browser plugin my pc crash. How i can use browser source if he dont show in obs?

The fix was a very dirty workaround that caused issues on certain Ubuntu flavor's and we therefore decided to rather have no browser instead of preventing OBS from being used on certain Ubuntu flavor's.

ok 25.0.4 version here, and new to OBS, when I set the Browser tab for a game the screen comes up in the window however when I start recording nothing in the game records but the mouse does, did I miss some setting or is this an issue with Linux Mint 19.x ?

25.0.7 snap version "Browser" is enabled
But the snap version is problematic, it cannot connect to removable storage, being a command necessary to be able to access removable device folders.
The command is this:
sudo snap connect obs-studio: removable media
Thanks especially to menber derekkeats.

Yes we don't have a solution for this issue yet.
Therefore the browser source is still missing from the PPA.
See https://github.com/obsproject/obs-browser/issues/219 for when a solution is available

You can always build OBS including the browser source yourself.
There is also the possibility to use qt widgets. This isn't really a solution though but rather a workaround.
You need to install qt5ct and set the env variable
QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct
Build instructions here: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/wiki/Install-Instructions#linux-build-directions

thank you for the fast reply.
A workaround is fine, I am in need for obs version 25+ (using stream output in listener mode) and browser source only for a small project.
I want to build this inside a docker container...Tried the instructions on a debian buster with xfce4 desktop but obs-studio would not run stable
What are the exact build tools to be installed in an ubuntu desktop (have one with fluxbox and obs from the PPA would install and run fine)?....the debian based ones given in the wiki do not seem to work

The Ubuntu PPA is pretty much using the depdencies of the wiki with some additions because the launchpad server lacks them and they're required to build the browser source plugin.
Code:
cmake, git, libx11-dev, libgl1-mesa-dev | libgl-dev, libpulse-dev, libxcomposite-dev, libxinerama-dev, libv4l-dev, libudev-dev, libfreetype6-dev, libfontconfig-dev, qtbase5-dev, libqt5svg5-dev, libqt5x11extras5-dev, libx264-dev, libxcb-xinerama0-dev, libxcb-shm0-dev, libavformat-dev, libavcodec-dev, libavutil-dev, libswscale-dev, libswresample-dev, libavdevice-dev, libavfilter-dev, libfdk-aac-dev, libjack-jackd2-dev, libcurl4-openssl-dev, libspeexdsp-dev, libvlc-dev, libasound2-dev, libluajit-5.1-dev, python3-dev, swig, libmbedtls-dev, pkg-config, libxcb-randr0-dev, libxcb-xfixes0-dev, libx11-xcb-dev, libxcb1-dev, libjansson-dev, libnss3-dev, libxtst-dev, libatspi2.0-dev, libatk-bridge2.0-dev, libatk1.0-dev, libgtk2.0-dev, libgtkglext1-dev, libxss-devPuh...other things got in the way since my last post...as I understand, the original problem still persists.
I can build my own version just fine, based on the dev-libs you named.
But since I am using a docker container, I was wandering if there is an option to make the install more lean.
As even the portable version requires all libraries installed, I wonder whether there is access to a list somewhere (ubuntu bionic/18.04) with the non-dev libs required for the runtime.
I tried and failed, as many libs or install packages do not share a common name or pattern (so just stripping "-dev" from the package-name would not suffice) and are even named differently, containing mixed upper/lowercase names between dev and non-dev version sometimes.
TIA,
fred
