OBS freezes during recording on macOS (Screen Capture source)

Hi everyone,

I’m using OBS 15.6.1 on macOS (Sequoia) and have been struggling with the same issue for the last 6 months.

Whenever I record using the macOS Screen Capture source, the recording often freezes randomly. When it happens, I have to open the source Properties and toggle “Show cursor” or “Hide OBS from recording” after that, the recording starts working again.

This bug started last summer. I should not update OBS back that time(

Has anyone faced this? Any fixes or workarounds would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
