Hello,
I am unable to start OBS on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I get the error message "Failed to initialize video: Invalid parameters".
The console output from when I try to open OBS is:
My OpenGL information is the following:
My ffmpeg version is 7:2.4.3-1ubuntu1~trusty6.
I have tried uninstalling obs-studio and ffmpeg and reinstalling them using the steps from the wiki. I have also tried removing the /usr/share/obs/ directory before reinstalling. Neither fixed the issue.
Also worth noting that I was able to use OBS on this computer previously (I think around September 2015 is the last time I used it). I am assuming something has changed since then that's preventing it from starting up now.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
