How did you install OBS?

After installing ffmpeg, I added the repository with the command sudo add-apt-repository ppa:obsproject/obs-studio, and then installed obs with the command sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install obs-studio

sudo apt install v4l2loopback-dkms

Hi, I've tried everything you mentioned, but it still doesn't show the screen source.
I've also tried starting with obs -platform wayland without success.

Hello, I fixed the issue just now on my arch machine and got Screen capture option back.

I had to install a package called `xdg-desktop-platform-wlr` as I was on sway ( a wlroots based compositor aka wayland ).
so if you are also on a wayland display server, go with this and also you MUST HAVE `xdg-desktop-platform` installed.

Also I installed the lib32 version of packages listed in above chats.

Hope this helps !!

Here's the screenshot of my working screen capture !!
