Hi, I have to stream a video audio from Chrome on OBS. When I try to configure the Chrome source as a window, OBS doesn't show me the Chrome option in the window list. So I configure that with screen capture option on a second screen. But in this case I can't capture the audio from an online video. How can I solve this problem?

If you're just after the audio, you must install and configure one of the desktop audio capture helper programs. You don't need to window or display capture chrome.

I need audio and video option. I have to stream a video from Chrome (but not on YT).

Well you still need the desktop audio capture helper programs. Apple blocks capture of audio otherwise.

I've just install one of them. Probably it will works, I'll try in the evening. But I can't understand why OBS doesn't allow me to capture the Chrome window and I have to use an external display for capturing a full screen chrome window from there.

Did you try disabling acceleration in chrome's settings to see if that would allow window capture to work?

My Hardware Acceleration is disabled on Chrome. I really can't understand why I can stream other windows like Skype, Twitter, Photoshop and other stuff but not Chrome or even Safari.
