I recently installed OBS on my newly purchased iMac and it worked fine for a few days but now it just crashes on startup every time. I have deleted and re-installed the program about 4 times now and the same thing happens over and over. I followed the path from the crash log and may have found the problem. I opened it up in the Terminal and this is what it said:
Last login: Mon Mar 21 13:56:18 on console
/Applications/OBS.app/Contents/Resources/bin/obs ; exit;
Roberts-iMac:~ roberthayes_iMac$ /Applications/OBS.app/Contents/Resources/bin/obs ; exit;
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "cocoa".
Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Abort trap: 6
logout
For reference, here's the crash report.
