Question / Help Game Capture

[BradlesJR]

Just wondering why game capture isn't on the mac!

Same reason OBS for Mac is missing a lot of features: it's still in alpha.

 

[BradlesJR]

Alright, Is it likely to have this in the future?

 

[Lain]

Very likely to have it. Maybe even in the next release.

jim is the next release soon or no

 

[dodgepong]

The goal is to have releases on a more-or-less monthly basis. That isn't a guaranteed release date, but given that 0.5.x was just released, I wouldn't start looking for another release for at least 3-4 weeks.

 

[BradlesJR]

In this release will we have game capture?

 

[Shriukan]

Workaround for game capture is to put the game in windowed mode, select the game windows, quit OBS, put the game back fullscreen and open OBS. Should work just fine although since it's alpha it could cause a crash here or there for some reason.

The next release might have Syphon support, which might be able to act like game capture if using SyphonInject.
