OBS-Studio not working after last update

Just did the normal update thing and the latest pull killed my OBS. Some troubleshooting help would be appreciated. I tried to launch it through the terminal and got Segmentation fault (core dumped).

Same problem, output is

obs --verbose

The only visible issue is v4l2loopback. It is installed. It has 2 “optional for”, webcamoid is working, obs is not.

In webcamoid I can’t set a virtual webcam, message is “The following dependencies are missing: linux-headers. Install them and try again”. No idea.

obs-studio is in the Manjaro repository, but if you insist on using the version from the AUR, then you may need to rebuild it after updating your system due to possible compatibility issues with your installed system libraries.

Same thing for me. Note that this is from the community repo, not the AUR. Here is the output.

Does it crash on start? Or upon starting to record?

It is crashing at startup

I, for one, don’t have such issue.
Comparing my output with yours, i note that you all seem to use a Nvidia GPU, while i have an AMD one. Would it be Nvidia related?

Perhaps try adding the following as an environment variable. See Hardware video acceleration - ArchWiki

LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=nvidia

No change when adding that. It’s related to the recent Manjaro updates. The NVIDIA driver was updated as part of that too. Probably has something to do with it, but I’m not sure what.

How did you add it? Did you reboot after?

I just executed obs with it

LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=nvidia obs

I guess it’s not fair to say there was no change. This warning was printed.

warning: LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME variable is set, this could prevent FFmpeg VAAPI from working correctly

But it still crashed at without starting with a segfault.

Sorry, didn’t notice earlier this was your first post here.

Welcome to the forum! :wave:

Please post your system info as outlined here:

Please also see:

I got this error as well when running it with that command.

I certainly am using a NVIDIA GPU, but this has not really been an issue up to this point. Gotta get OBS up and running =/

I don’t want to hijack the thread from Noven but here is my output in case it’s helpful

results after typing in obs, latest stable kernel, latest “stable” Manjaro version, latest proprietary Nvidia driver

I had the same OBS issue and logged errors after applying the updates on the week of 1/25/23. The fix is to remove the nvida drivers and use the basic linux video drivers only if you can live without the nvidia drivers until there is a fix. Reboot the OS after the change and OBS will then open.

I’ve just downloaded the flatpak for now as I don’t want to go with the free Nvidia drivers.

It’s not really a solution, but until this is resolved.

I’m having the exact same issue. It seems like someone broke something with the latest update, probably coming from the OBS team.

I think the issue is the Manjaro staff not testing. I had other bad experience with applying update and thing breaks or packages get removed and I have to reinstall the package after research or wipe the OS. The one bad thing about the Linux community vs Mac/Windows. Cannot recall Ubuntu/Mint had this much post upgrade issues. Random things with Manjaro – the bleeding edge I guess.
