Hello,

I recently did a clean install of Linux Mint 22.1, and since then Obs Studio has stopped showing me window-previews, helpful during meetings for window overlays(The reason primarily why I use Obs.). I have tried with and without wayland by switching during Login itself. I tried in Cinnamon and Kde, no luck.
I also tried running it as root. I installed via Github, apt, snap, still no change.

Obs version: 30.0.2

Startup log is more than 15000 chars, so had to move it to pastebin. https://pastebin.com/rkg6GacR
Screenshot attached.

Can someone please let me know. Kinda stuck here since 2 days.

Thank you. :-)

Again, Studio Mode. There's a button right there. Bottom right...
Attaching new screenshots, I clicked on studio mode, selected the correct window. I also enabled Window preview. Thank you for your patience.

Screen recording works just fine, but i want to stream, not record. Typically overlay terminal on top of browser window. Worked before flawlessly. :-) My video also works fine, just windows are not getting shown.
