Crashing when selecting non-linux sources

[snaccpacc651]

A bit of backstory, I have 3 collections I used on Windows. I've just made the switch to Linux and OBS runs fine and imported my scenes equally as well... however.

I had audio application capture on most of my scenes for game and discord audio. Now that feature appears to not be native in linux, which is fine, but I can't even remove those sources. If I select either of these sources, OBS hard crashes.

I don't expect to get them working, I just would like to remove them so I don't accidentally crash OBS. Is there a way to go in and remove these sources somewhere?

You should be able to remove them from your scenes in ~/.config/obs-studio/basic - but create a backup of ~/.config/obs-studio first.

Perfect, yeah went in to the scene's JSON and removed each section for Discord and Game audio and that cleared it up. Thank you!

To get per process audio sources back, you should then use https://github.com/dimtpap/obs-pipewire-audio-capture. Otherwise, the Linux OBS limits you to physical audio devices only.
