Dear friends, I have been having an audio problem when recording with OBS on macOS, and I’m hoping someone can help. Here is the situation: When I start a recording, the audio is fine. However, after some time—sometimes 30 minutes, sometimes an hour or even longer—the recorded computer audio...

I'm using OBS Studio 32.2.2 on macOS Tahoe 26.5.1 on a 2019 Intel MacBook Pro. I'm recording a Zoom presentation using a macOS Screen Capture source. The screen capture audio initially works normally, and I can see the audio meter moving in OBS. After approximately 10 minutes of recording, the...

This appears to be an issue for Windows streamers too. After around 2 hours of streaming, whether as high as 4500 or as low as 2800 bitrate, stream starts to lag, especially the camera. Playing with resolution and similar settings seems to have no impact at all. NOTE: OBS does NOT report any...

OBS currently requires CMake's Xcode generator on macOS. This makes packaging difficult for distributions like nixpkgs that build into a staging prefix and handle their own dependency fixups and ad-hoc signing. I'm proposing OBS support an additional generator-independent build and installation...

Every time I restart my Mac Studio (M3 Ultra) OBS has "forgotten" which capture card belongs to what source. I have 3x Elgato 4K X capture cards, and one CamLink 4K. After a restart I have to click on the source I've created, and guess at random which of the Elgato 4K X has the feed I want. The...

Hi everyone On macOS I noticed the default OBS text source Text (FreeType 2) does not handle alignment the way you would expect, which makes it awkward to position blocks of text cleanly when you need proper left, centre, or right alignment. To fix this, I created a modified version that...

macOS traditionally restricts most apps to a single running instance, so opening two copies of OBS side by side with separate data wasn't possible - until now. I created Parall, a macOS utility that allows any app to run as completely independent instances, each with its own configuration and...

I don't expect that this behavior should be fixed, because I believe that OBS's current behavior is correct. Reproduction Steps Open OBS on macOS Create a Scene with a capture card, webcam, or other UVC video input device. Open Discord Join a voice channel Right click on the "Camera" icon...
