I have a Mac desktop. I downloaded Open Broadcaster in order to record speed paints, upon request from my friends and fans. I downloaded the program from the website, and it downloaded smoothy with no issues.... Until I attempted to open it for the first time in order to change something in the settings (I was following the provided tutorial).
It took no time to load, it appeared to be starting up smoothly. I saw the program pop up as it should, but I noticed right away that something was not right. I tried to click on settings, and I was unable to do anything. It immediately crashed (This all happened within seconds by the way).
This was months ago. I've tried every solve under the sun. I restarted my computer, uninstalled and re-downloaded. I tried everything. There is none odd thing: I saw a comment from someone with the exact same problem, saying that they solved it by doing this:
"try opening up Finder, pressing Command-Shift-G, then typing in the following:
~/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/basic
Then delete the scenes.json file and try opening OBS again! I can't confirm that it won't mess with your scenes or anything (as I'd already reinstalled OBS and wiped mine), but it definitely got the application opening again."
However, when I tried to do this, I realized that there was no scenes.json file there? *sighhhs* I don't know how I'm going to fix this.
My poor fans lol.
any help is VERY appreciated!
