Anyone have an idea of what I may have broken?
All, I recently updated to OBS 0.656b, on Windows 10. I previously ran windows 7 with OBs and it worked fine.
With the latest build and Windows 10 I tried the installer and it kept installing the 32 bit version. So I downloaded the ZIP file,uninstalled the 32 bit version, restarted (cold boot each time) then installed the 64 bit and restarted.
With Win7 and the old 32 bit I was able to run both cameras at the same time. Now no matter whether I use scenes, video capture device or global device on set up, I am unable to turn on both cameras without OBS locking up.
I tried it with setting 2 separate scenes using global device for each scene and when I switch scenes to the 2nd camera OBS locks up.
I used the analyzer and it reported back that I have my settings correct.
Any Idea where I should investigate next? Win 10/ Logitech driver (which are Win 10)/ somewhere else in OBS?
Tim Longwell , I think I remember Terry Leigh Britton working with someone else with a similar problem. If I recall correctly the resolution of the problem involved changing to 32 bit drivers for the cameras. The 32 bit version of OBS wouldn't play well with 64 bit device drivers. Perhaps Terry will chime in with more info.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't get my camera to work at all with 32 bit OBS but I'm just using one camera, the Logitech C920. I'm still using Windows 7.
ReplyDeleteMaybe changing the resolution would help?
Thanks John Brown and Craig Long for your input.
ReplyDeleteJohn you are right about 32 bit OBS not liking 64 bit drivers. From what I found on the OBS forums that issue also applies using 32 bit drivers with 64 bit OBS. Won't work.
In my case when adding a new device on 64 bit, there is a notation about 64 bit driver available. Something along the line of 'you can only use the device if the 64 bit driver shows up in the drop down list.'
Craig, With this latest upgrade of OBS the 32 bit OBS won't run on my Win 10. OBS totally locks up on starting the program. Not even compatiblity mode solves that. 64 bit OBS on 64 bit Win 10 loads fine.
Also Craig, you gave me something to ponder. I can recall a program in my days gone by that would crash if the desktop resolution did not match the program resolution. I will play with the resolutions and see where that takes me.
More to come.
I was thinking of camera resolution.
ReplyDeleteAlso try the multiplatform version of OBS:

Tim Longwell what kind of cameras and/or capture cards are you using?
