No response

Expected Behavior

The interface continues to run after the creation of browser sources is attempted or obs is launched from a profile with a browser source is launched.

Current Behavior

When launching in my original saved profile, OBS will launch but the interface will never initialize - the program will essentially be running in the background. From what i see in the logs, it doesnt appear to be reporting any obvious issues.

when Launching in a fresh new profile, OBS launches correctly, however, upon the attempted creation of a browser source, the interface will freeze and the app will hang... the new source doesnt even make it to the log.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install/upgrade packages (AUR: tytan652)
2. launch OBS
3. create browser source
   ...?
   profit!

Anything else we should know?

Any version ive installed from v31 and above, seems to have this problem.

The last version i ran that worked was 30.2.3-tytan652

Im kinda in a rut here as i have done a clean build and no longer have all my old packages of obs cached up. Also my python got upgraded in one of my last upgrades and as a result some of my other software broke when i last downgraded. As a result i will not be avaliable to downgrade again.

Flatpak has never agreed with my setup for various reasons.

Well.
i switched to the Flatpak version after getting nowhere with trying to fix it.... and flatpak worked flawlessly

No jack issues like last time
i no longer run BMD hardware so no issues there.
brilliant.

I'm closing this issue, not because the issues fixed but because i no longer care about fixing it as other versions seem to work better.

if @tytan652 reads this, i wish you best of luck with trying to fix it - i wouldnt be surprised if it wasnt broken on your end -, don't hesitate to reach out, but given the instability and the unanswered questions people have asked on the AUR, i doubt you will.

If anyone comes accross this and wants to fix it, feel free to reopen it.

I also have this issue, and it exists both in the default arch repo and the obs-studio-browser AUR.

This issue is not limited to Wayland, either. X11 has the same problem. System info:

Reopening due to other people having this issue

To reiterate: issue is present on AUR releases tytan652 and obs-studio-browser releases

It is not present on Flatpak current release.

Neither of the three Arch releases listed (default, tytan652, obs-studio-browser) are official. The only official OBS release for Arch is the Flatpak, which you say works fine.
Due to no official release being effected, I’ll close this issue. Please report this to the downstream packagers.
