Macbook Pro 2020 - Sonoma - Impossible to reload OBS

[BB21]

Hi everyone,

I prepared a scene for my next streaming, and I don't know why OBS crashed. And since this crash made it impossible to open OBS, I re-installed 2 time and with the same problem, I have a text message.

" Failed to initialize video. Your GPU may not be supported, or your graphics drivers may need to be updated."

But I ran the soft before.

Please help me !

I have the same. Almost a year later. Did you find a solution?

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:

~/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/basic/profiles

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:

[Video]
BaseCX=1920
BaseCY=1080
OutputCX=1920
OutputCY=1080

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.
