I have the same problem. When I try to run OBS, I get this error : Failed to initialize video: Unspecified error. I'm on Xubuntu 14.04. Since last update, can't run OBS

run "glxinfo | grep OpenGL" in terminal and paste that information.

I tried do compilation the code from git-hub : https://github.com/jp9000/obs-studio/commit/bb111c7642ac1294007e821fdad072129d2f3a81 but then of finally of the process, the error again crash the software, really need your help with this problem, maybe that is cause for the library mesa or such.

And my graphic is :

glxinfo | grep OpenGL

OpenGL core profile version string: 4.3.0 NVIDIA 352.41
