Question / Help Errors in the log file at startup of OBS

[Tangential]

I've been working on cleaning up the errors in my active log file at startup and I have it down to these.

12:46:40.229: ---------------------------------
12:46:40.238: Failed to load 'en-US' text for module: 'decklink-ouput-ui.so'
12:46:40.250: os_dlopen(libpython3.7m.dylib->libpython3.7m.dylib): dlopen(libpython3.7m.dylib, 257): image not found

12:46:40.653: ---------------------------------

12:46:40.653: ---------------------------------
12:46:40.653: os_dlopen(../obs-plugins/obs-browser->../obs-plugins/obs-browser.so): dlopen(../obs-plugins/obs-browser.so, 257): image not found

These are no plugins installed in /Library/Application Support/obs-studio/plugins. That directory is empty.

In my local plugin directory I see:

$ pwd       
/Users/jrh/Library/Application Support/obs-studio
$ ls -l plugin_config
total 0
drwxr-xr-x  2 jrh  staff   64 Feb  6 10:47 advanced-scene-switcher
drwxr-xr-x  6 jrh  staff  192 Mar  4 12:51 rtmp-services
drwxr-xr-x  3 jrh  staff   96 Feb  6 10:52 text-freetype2

So there is nothing there related to "obs-browse" or DeckLink so I don't understand why I am getting errors related to them.

I'd also appreciate some guidance on how to fix the python problem. On my system that file exists at "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Library/Frameworks/Python3.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/libpython3.7m.dylib". Do I need to symlink it somewhere?

Thanks

You can ignore pretty much all of these.

Python support doesn't work on MacOS.

Bug Report - Python scripting don't work on OBS 22.0.3

Is python scripts currently supported in the latest version of OBS (22.0.3) on macOS? I'm trying to load a script, but unable to get any output in console. I've tried setting python path to /usr/local/Cellar/python/3.6.5 but nothing have changed, still no output.

The Decklink and browser source plugins are part of OBS. Decklink I think won't load if you don't have the drivers for it installed, which you won't if you don't own a Decklink card.

Over the past few years I think there were issues with the browser plugin being installed in multiple places, so sometimes there's an extra one or an old one that fails to load, but if you're not having stability problems or problems using browser source it's not an issue.

Thanks for the info. That info helps.

The browser thing is odd. I've run

find / -name obs-browser.so -print

on my system and the only results were:

/System/Volumes/Data/Applications/OBS.app/Contents/Plugins/obs-browser.so
/System/Volumes/Data/Volumes/com.apple.TimeMachine.localsnapshots/Backups.backupdb/Mystic/2020-03-05-105100/Macintosh HD - Data/Applications/OBS.app/Contents/Plugins/obs-browser.so

It doesn't really explain where the copy it cannot open is located and it look for it in obs-plugins rather than Plugins but since it isn't a problem (and I don't use the browse plugin anyway) I won't worry.
