Excuse me, but I get this error after I enter "sudo apt-get install ffmpeg obs-studio" into the terminal. I was wondering what the problem is and how I can fix it if there is a way to currently fix it. Thank you.

When using sudo apt-get update
It can't download from
because it should be

I'm using ubuntu 12.04 based distro.

Edit2:

Edit3:

You shouldn't try to install OBS on a 12.04 based Distro. You will need to replace so much libraries that you probably break your system. There is a reason why OBS is not packed for 12.04.

Do you have added the PPA from the sticky topic? If so can you please give the output of
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/btbn-obs-studio-trusty.list

This is the output of sudo apt get update command.

That is the output of install obs command
.

Either you are not running 14.04 or something is wrong in your distribution name. If you look at the error output, it says it is searching for a Saucy (13.10) package, but there are only Trusty (14.04) packages in that PPA.

You need to edit the btbn*.list file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and replace saucy with trusty. But before you do that, you really should check if you are actually running Ubuntu 14.04!
