Hi everyone,
I have some issues running OBS (not only the RC1) on my iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017, 4,2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 40 GB 2400 MHz DDR4, Radeon Pro 580 8 GB)
The CPU usage is constantly rising up to about 275%, and OBS start to freeze for GUI inputs (face camera is still live, but starts to build up a delay). At this time the process kernel_task is starting to use a lot of CPU as well (over 300%). As soon as OBS is responding for GUI input again, the kernel_task is normal again, but the CPU usage of OBS still around 200%.
I don’t use any Browser-Sources in OBS due to the known issue with CEF. Instead I’m using NDI to transmit the content to another instance of OBS running on Windows. (There are the Browser-Sources).
I tried this 2 times and created a log file.
At some point OBS suddenly drops down to 120% CPU usage (and the face camera is almost synced again), freezes and starts to build up CPU usage again.
I’m not using any window capture but screen capture instead.
(By the way, push-to-mute isn’t working either)
Regards

P.S.: If requested, I can provide an analysis of the OBS process from Mac OS. All scenes have been created with OBS 26.1.2
