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!
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.
This is what I did to fix the OBS open and close issue after the Jan 25, 2023 patching issue.
I think the main concept is reinstalling the Nvidia drivers and reboot. That is, strip the Nvidia drivers, reboot, install video-linux driver, reboot, re-install Nvidia drivers, reboot, remove the video-linux driver, reboot. Then OBS works with Nvidia drivers with the Jan 25, 2023 patches.
Notes:
I did wiped my Manjaro OS and re-install it with the open source drivers initally, but you can skip this step because OBS still broke after a post wipe full patching reboot. I am not sure if this huge step made a difference.
And I used the mhwd auto propietery Nvidia GPU drivers and open source video-Linux drivers via the Manjaro Setting HW GUI install tool (not the Nvidia drivers by downloading from Nvidia’s site CLI “make” methods).
Hope this helps.
This, actually, what I did last night and it magically fixed the issue.
Before doing anything, is there an explanation why it broke and why would some reinstall fix it?
I don’t want to worry about losing settings.
this is about to be the reason my distro hop again
Hey, I have the same problem. Can you list the commands for this fix?
how does one do this without breaking cuda and nvidia-prime the mhwd gui and commandline don’t have a way to do it or at least not in a way that isn’t going to break everything else
open manjaro settings, then double-click the hardware configuration icon. Then:
- Right-click video-linux → install
- Right-click video-nvidia (or whatever specific version is installed) → remove
Reboot, log back in, then manjaro settings → hw config again and do the opposite:
- Right click video-nvidia → install
- Right click video-linux → remove
Reboot.
You can do everything from the command line:
sudo mhwd -i pci video-linux
sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia
sudo reboot
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia
sudo mhwd -r pci video-linux
sudo reboot
Also, it was too late when I thought about it, but one might just want to try and reinstall the nvidia drivers instead of doing a full switch to the nouveau driver and reboot twice… That would be nice to let the others know if this works or not.
Anyhow, cycling the drivers worked for me. First time I see this on linux lol. I there hadn’t been a few people already saying that this fixed the issue, I wouldn’t have even tried.

I tried this with sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia -f
but it made no difference. I had to uninstall and reinstall with two reboots to get it to work.
This worked for me, thanks!
The solution given does not work for me. I tried multiple times. When I remove video-nvidia driver and install video-linux, then my system will not load and I have to do a CTRL-ALT-F2, log in, and reinstall the nvidia driver. Then my system loads normally but OBS seg faults, exactly as others have described.
I need to use OBS later and so my only solution was to use Timeshift and return my system to a 2023-01-17 snapshot.
Also, VLC wasn’t working either and now it works again after going back.
I’m not sure if its necessary but here’s my current info (After restoring the 2023-01-17 snapshot):
