SOLUTION.
Something set your canvas size to be too large for OBS, like in excess of 10,000 pixels wide or tall. to fix it, you'll need to edit one of your initialization files to fix the resolution
in Finder, press Shift-Command-G, paste in the following and hit enter:
open your profile folder, then open the file "basic.ini" in a text editor such as TextEdit.
scroll down to the area labeled [Video], then change the top four values as following:
leave the rest of the file as is
OBS should now start up just fine
If above does not work, just delete the obs-studio folder completely.
Hello,
I'm experiencing a similar problem. After importing a picture that exceeds 10 000 pixels (16 667 × 5 121 px exactly), OBS crashed. Now, when I try to open OBS, I get the following error message: "Failed to initialize video. Your GPU may not be supported, or your graphics drivers may need to be updated."
I am using an Apple M1 Pro with 32GB of memory, running Sonoma 14.5 (the latest version).
In the "basic.ini" file, the settings are already configured as follows:
Code:
[Video]
BaseCX=1920
BaseCY=1080
OutputCX=1920
OutputCY=1080
Since OBS still doesn't work, I deleted the entire obs-studio folder, but OBS still won't open.
I also tried completely uninstalling OBS using the CleanMyMac app and then reinstalling it, but the issue persists.
Could you please help me resolve this?
