Hi,
I'm new to this and trying to record my desktop screen, downloaded and set up OBS but the videos won't save and the button is stuck on "stopping recording". I searched for the issue and it seems I need to tweak some settings, but I have no idea which tweak would work for me. Perhaps, someone could figure that out from the log:
