Warning Old Version (29.1.3)
You are running an old version of OBS Studio (29.1.3). Please update to version 31.0.4 by going to Help -> Check for updates in OBS or by downloading the latest installer from the downloads page and running it.
Warning Permissions Not Granted (2)
The following permissions have not been granted:
  • Screen Recording: OBS requires this permission to be able to capture your screen.
  • Accessibility: For keyboard shortcuts (hotkeys) to work while other apps are focused this permission is needed.
If you would like to grant permissions for the above, follow the instructions in the macOS Permissions Guide.
Info macOS 12.6 (OK)
You are running macOS 12.6 Monterey, which is currently supported by Apple and the most recent version of OBS.
Info Dynamic Bitrate
Dynamic Bitrate is enabled. Instead of dropping frames when network issues are detected, OBS will automatically reduce the stream quality to compensate. The bitrate will adjust back to normal once the connection becomes stable. In some (very specific) situations, Dynamic Bitrate can get stuck at a low bitrate. If this happens frequently, it is recommended to turn off Dynamic Bitrate in Settings -> Advanced -> Network.
Info Third-Party Plugins (1)
