It looks like OBS isn't working on the newest OS X. When I try to open it, it says it quit unexpectedly. I'm using OBS version 25.0.8.

It's a bug with CEF (browser sources). If you have any browser sources anywhere in your scene, even if they are disabled, OBS will crash. There is no current workaround


There are too many updates.... which one is the workable workaround ?

Hi everyone,
I solved the issues with OBS on Big Sur by installing OBS with brew.
This also solved the flickering issues when recording from a specific window.
 
Hello,

i have the same problem ... but i have a solution:
don't use Chrome , use Safari like Browser ... it works with this browser on my Mac !
;-)
