Question / Help Using CLR Browser and Elgato with OBS

[dawookiemonster]

So first off, let me say I'm new to this streaming business and only moderately PC tech savvy.

I've been using OBS successfully for PC streaming with no issues, but I just recently got an Elgato card for my PS4. Although my PC is a 64-bit PC, OBS has to run the 32-bit version because of Elgato. The problem is that when I try to install the CLR browser, it will only work in the 64-bit version of OBS. This sucks because I want Twitch Alerts to work when I'm streaming off my PS4.

I've tried installing the plugins in just the 32-bit OBS folder, both plugins in both folders, deleting the 64-bit folder, you name it. The only way I can run CLR Browser in OBS is via the 64-bit version. There has to be some way to fix it so that I utilize both Elgato and CLR in OBS, but I'm just not figuring it out. Like I said, even if I install just the 32-bit plugin into my (86x) folder, CLR Browser is not an available scene in OBS.

Is there any way to force CLR to run on 32-bit? Or am I missing something here?

Thank you for your help!

You need to have the 32-bit MS Visual C++ 2013 runtimes too.

Ahhh. Okay. When I updated, I may have used 64 instead. I'll double check when I get home and update. Thanks for the tip!

Pretty sure the 32 and 64 bit CLR browser plugins are different. So download the 32 bit version.

That's currently the version I've got in my plugin folder and it's not working. I've downloaded both versions and used both separately to make sure it was a fluke. 64 bit version works, 32 bit doesn't.

The 32 bit plugin is definitely in the plugin folder for the 32 bit OBS which is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\OBS\plugins by default?

 

[dawookiemonster]

Yep. I've double checked several times, but yes, it's there. I also copied and replaced them just to be 100% certain. Still now source option in OBS.

Appatently deleting the entire OBS folder from the 64 bit program files folder solved the issue. Yay. Everything is running perfectly now. Thanks for yal's input!
