I couldn't find this anywhere, so I wanted to share that in the latest MacOS 15 (Sequoia) beta, the place in Settings where you authorize system extensions has moved to General:Login Items & Extensions.

So in the existing wiki docs for MacOS 13+ we have this info:
  1. When opening OBS for the first time, you will get a promt "System Extension Blocked". Click "Open System Settings". Alternatively, open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Security.
  2. In the box "System software from application 'OBS' was blocked from loading", click "Allow".
  3. Authenticate to allow the system extension.
  4. Restart OBS.
Unless the beta changes before general release, the instructions for MacOS 15+ would be something like:
  1. When opening OBS for the first time, you will get a prompt "System Extension Blocked". Open System Settings → General → Login Items & Extensions → click the information "i" icon by Camera Extensions.
  2. In the "OBS" box, click the switch/slider to the right to enable the extension.
  3. Authenticate to allow the system extension.
  4. Restart OBS.
Maybe this is already known, but hopefully this info is useful and helps others who are on the MacOS beta like me.

Thanks to Lain and contributors for the work on this project, very cool.
