Question / Help OBS crashes on start - OBS Camera plugin

[jbhiker]

Hi all. I'm working to install OBS with the OBS camera plugin on an older mac. MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011), running El Capitan 10.11.6, 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics 300 384 MB OBS works fine, but when I install the plugin for OBS Camera, it crashes on startup. If I delete the plugin, it's fine again. Any ideas on how to get it to work? I'm going to see if I have some more RAM laying around to upgrade this computer. Basically, if this computer isn't going to cut it, I'm going to stop messing with it! Thanks for the help in advance!

Here's the report log, and attached is the OBS log.

Bottom line, unless your requirements for performance and quality are really low, that computer won't cut it. OBS operates at several disadvantages on the same hardware compared to on Windows; Mac hardware is lacking some of the best available features that OBS uses, and the plugin you mention hasn't been updated in about a year now so hasn't been tested with recent OBS versions.

The system requirements for the latest OBS are also 10.12 or higher.
