screen capture does not work

[Christian233]

I have a MacBook Pro 2020 macOS Catalina 10.15.5 and I'm using the latest version of OBS 25.0.8. I use the Display Capture but it does not work. I get the message No properties available. How can I fix it ? Someone can help me ?

Regards,
Christian

Problem solve by myself ..... Settings > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Screen Recording and Check OBS.app.

I'm having the same issue and tried Privacy settings. OBS is not available under screen recordng but is a checked option under camera and microphone. What step am I missing?

I am having the same issue at this moment, tried Privacy settings but it was not there. I had also a problem with the camera that was not in privacy settings, but that resolved in the settings when I saw there were 2 identical options and selected the other cam option.
I tried installing OBS again, it was not resolved, the same settings were there with the same problems.
I just clicked on the source settings of screen recording again and a message came and now I have access to screen recording in the privacy settings. But not all the windows were in the capture list, it seems that the list didn't refresh. After restarting OBS i now can capture the right window. The scale is not right yet but that must be easy to solve.

I have an answer to if you cannot find OBS in the list

1. go to your terminal and type: csrutil status
2. hit enter, if it says disabled then that may be your issue.

to re-enable it:

1. Restart your mac
2. During the boot up press and hold command-R (for enter recovery mode)
3. Wait for load it up
4. If you have disk encription -> put your password, if not go to step 5
5. Click “utilities” at the top of your screen then open terminal
6. In terminal type “csrutil enable” and enter
7. Restart your mac
8. go to your terminal and type: csrutil status it should be enabled now
9. Reinstall your app - They should now ask permission for microphone and stuff. For screen recording go manually to settings and select the checkbox next to OBS)
