Hello, I've scoured this forum for a solution to my issue with OBS. I am a new user of the software and I am very pleased with it up until now. I would like to get it working again and enjoy it's awesomeness. I receive this error every time I launch the OBS program. I've already uninstalled the program and deleted the associated library files I'm aware of. I have since reinstalled but keep getting this error message: Thank you in advance for your help.



Here is the log file:

It's not that I can't. It's that I won't waste my time doing so when the log file itself is plain text and even more easily attached to a post.

Where is the log file located? Didn't mean to question your abilities, wasn't my intention at all. I just don't know this program very well. I'm from an audio background trying to work on something new. If you can help me please do so. I've seen others with the same problem, and they were encouraged to delete, re-install, delete the obs-studio folder and relaunch the app. Nothing works. I just installed it on the same Mac using a different partition containing Mavericks and it worked like a charm. Is there a known issue with El Capitan? Thanks again for any help you can give me.

HAROLD, I read the sticky on how to get the log file and upload. But I cant even get OBS to open up any longer. I get this message and that's it. That log I put up in the .pdf format was actually the Mac crash log. So I'm sure for your own reasons you have decided to stick your nose into this thread, but offer no solutions or helpful advice. I'm just figur'n now, you don't know how to solve this issue. Maybe one of the adults with a little more savvy will come along and help a new user out. Thanks for nothing...

Like I said, that folder doesn't exist. The only folder or file I have under ~/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/plugins. That is literaly what that folder looks like
