Hello.
I have installed OBS 0.16.2 on my Ubuntu 16.04.1 Computer.

looks like a graphics driver issue i could be wrong though which graphics driver are you using?

Looks like I've got an old version. Can I update it?

As you can see, I'm using Manjaro 64-bit with a GeForce GTX 750. I recently reinstalled my graphics drivers with mhwd, (I was having trouble with my monitor) and It worked before doing so. I guess I must be missing something, but what? I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers version 370.28, but I might have been using 340xx before. They both support my card though, so I assume that's not the problem?

EDIT: Nevermind, I fixed it. I tried running some other OpenGL programs and when I changed Zandronum's display mode to OpenGL it complained that the color depth was only 16. After setting it to 24, they both worked. I was wondering why my desktop background looked off...

I solved the problem. I just bought a new computer with a better graphic card. I know what was the problem. My old computer had one of these crappy graphic chip things. Now I've got a real graphic card.
