Display capture freezes (28.1.2 / MacOS 13.0)

Here's a Mac fix for video and audio I found buried in the thread, so thanks to whoever posted this initially.

Run the Deprecated sources instead of the normal captures.

Sources > Deprecated > Window Capture for your screen.

You will also need to use this for your audio. The deprecated window capture on its own doesn't provide any sound, so you'll need to pull audio from your desktop / Audio Output.

Download Blackhole (https://blackhole.macupdate.com/) which will allow you to create a Multi-Output Device. Once you've installed and set it up, you'll set the Audio Output on your Mac to "Multi-Output Device." Go back to Sources > Deprecated > Audio Output, add it to your source list, and set it to "Blackhole 2ch." You'll need to adjust the volume manually for each application instead of through the OBS mixer, but I haven't had any source freezing since doing it this way.

Hope this helps.
