Browser source : This browser or app may not be supported - fail to log into my google account

[George Styl]

I use the latest versions on my PC and need to have a broswer source which comes from my google sheets.
I copy the google sheets address and paste it into the browser source URL . It asks me to log onto my google account.
I type in my email for username. and then it says This browser or app may not be supported.

Can you please help me solve this issue?

Hope this helps - drove me nuts too. One solution I found from another thread:

Bug Report - Problem with logging into my Google account through the dock-panel.

Hello. When I try to log in to my Google account through the created dock-panel in the OBS. I get the following message (screenshot). Tell me how to solve this? Thanx.

obsproject.com

states to change the user agent presented by OBS by adding the following to your shortcut path: --user-agent =" Superuser "
For example - mine now looks like:
"C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe" --user-agent =" Superuser "
After restarting OBS - worked like a charm (Not sure if that trailing space is necessary - once it worked, I was too happy to bother experimenting further ;) ).

Solution I found. Google does not trust any attempt to log in to a google account using the OBS browser source interact option.
Therefore
SOLUTION : create a new Gmail account using OBS Browser source in interact mode.
After that OBS saves this into its profiles and Google is happy as well .
This means that any files in Google sheets you wanted to use must first be transferred over to your new email account after which their URL can be copy pasted into OBS without any fuss.

I hope this helps other people who faced this issue .

This is the best Answer:
Right click OBS.exe
Properties > add the following at the end of the Target line:
--user-agent =" Superuser "

The Super User will allow you to sign in to your Google account; but will ruin the Chat Browser Dock. All you need to do is close OBS after you are signed in. Then remove the superuser line, and run it again.

Thanks for the person who posted the original answer
