Heres a crash report for my Macbook Pro. Its launching then immediately crashing. I'm not sure why its crashing. ANY SUGGESTIONS? http://pastebin.com/C4wt4T0S
OBS redux
- Thread starter Lain
- Start date
Paul Murphy - It doesn't use ffmpeg for streaming. It uses the encoders directly, x264 and whichever AAC encoder you're using and muxes it together itself. It also uses a custom version of librtmp which is statically compiled in, so it isn't relying on anything for outside packages. So if there was a problem with any of that code everyone would get it because it's not relying on outside packages save for the encoders themselves.
Check to see if recording is working. I haven't heard of anyone having video issues at the moment.

Jim I have been able to successfully stream audio and video through twitch with soundflower. I just set my output to ch2. and system preferences to soundflower (ch2), then my input in OBS to my external mic. No issues with that at all.
However, my problem is hopefully down the road game capture and window capture is included. I like playing my games in full screen rather than anything else (mac book pro retina resolution only works at higher resolutions w/ full screen, you lose a lot of display when windowed.) Is there anything planned for this down the road?

Streaming to twitch works fine for me, it could be that your x264 version is too old. Mine is x264-0.0.20140308 on gentoo.

zwiki: There is currently no way on OS X to tap into desktop sound other than a custom driver such as SoundFlower or WavTap. This is an issue nested within OS X itself, and we can't do anything about it until when/if Apple decides to update their OS with an API that would allow us to do this.
Scoop: This is yet another weird OS X driver issue, the OpenGL drivers will simply crash if they receive any "bad" input (unsupported extensions, etc.). While this may be possible to work around, it might take a while.

I'm new to all of this so I have a few questions. Every time I stream the video either doesn't show up, or goes extremely slow. Twitch keeps telling me
- Max keyframe interval is currently at 8.85 seconds. Please set it to 2 seconds.
- The broadcast is not set to constant bitrate (CBR). [Current average: 733 kbps, current max: 4369.0 kbps]
steven1568901's issue was that he was running on 10.8.2, which didn't have OpenGL 3.2 available. He upgraded his OS version and it updated his OpenGL version and fixed it. Just a heads up for anyone, not all 10.8 versions work.
I'll fix the keyframe interval, I neglected to set that option for x264. It's supposed to be set by the service itself but I haven't added that code in so I'll just put it to 2 seconds for now. Will update tomorrow or so. However, bitrate should be constant. I don't know why it'd be saying that as CBR is definitely on. I'll double-check that.
Currently, I annoyingly managed to get distracted with some unrelated semi-critical code, which I'll complete shortly. After I'm finished I'll continue with the scene editing and bitmap stuff however.
Zwiki22 - perhaps I could go on teamviewer some time and take a look, if you ever have time.

Thanks - emerging the new one now - I was on 2011 so I think you might be right :)
Out of interest, what ffmpeg are you running?
Hey there guys, just made an account and wanted to thank Jim and all the others for bringing OBS to Mac, works already awesome! Especially video quality!
However I can't get the sound to work just like a few others… I've pretty much tried everything… SoundFlower first… 2ch, 64ch, nothing (tried all options - Mic, CoreAudio Out, Desktop with each) also starting up the apps in a different order.
I then "switched" to WavTap, did the same as I stated above, but still, my stream on twitch is silent… Any ideas?
Working on an iMac with 10.8.5.
Any possible help is appreciated! Keep up the good work :)

JamesRyan: I am also on 10.8.5! I think we may have found a critical point of our problem!
EDIT: I have wiped my computer and am installing Mavericks and will then try again. If it works, then it seems like a confirmed problem with 10.8.5
EDIT2: Now running on 10.9, sound works perfectly with Soundflower. Wonder what it is about 10.8.5 that is causing that sound issue.

I built it successfully on Ubuntu 14.04 but whenever I try to run it, it pops up with this error, even though the file exists.
obs: error while loading shared libraries: libobs.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
EDIT: Fixed by creating symbolic links for every obs file, annoying but works.
DOUBLE EDIT: After playing around, I love it on Linux, all it needs is scene editing (Moving things around like it's windows counterpart) and streaming upload options (like buffer size and such) then it'll be perfect. The XComposite Plugin works flawlessly, brilliant stuff!

Basically obs-redux on linux is a bit awkward to build, its best to after compiling "install" it in a custom prefix (my helper script I linked earlier does basically --prefix=$HOME/bin/obs by default) then use $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to $HOME/bin/obs/lib/ where libobs.so and friends live (eg a custom ffmpeg if you also had compiled it)
(pre-post edit: ah looks like you got it working. anywho here is more info for you then...)

I just want to check, it is currently not possible to do window capture in the OSX alpha correct? Otherwise it looks freaking amazing! keep it up guys!

When will you be able to add support for Elgato Game Capture HD and Xbox 360?
