Homebrew installed OBS and rtsp-server beta: plugin won't load
Archetrix opened this issue · comments
Hi i've got OBS installed via homebrew (macOS Ventura) and used the v3.0.0-beta3 installer package for obs-rtspserver.
OBS would not display the RTSP Server entry under tools. No issues or errors in logs and such.
Then i stumbled across a mention of a plugins-folder within the OBS.app/Contents/PlugIns/ and simply linked the obs-rtspserver plugin from /Library/Application\ Support/obs-studio/plugins/
ln -s /Library/Application\ Support/obs-studio/plugins/obs-rtspserver.plugin /Applications/OBS.app/Contents/PlugIns/obs-rtspserver.plugin
That did the trick for me. I'm not sure if some config file of the homebrew-built OBS does not include the Application Support folder. So this might be a homebrew issue but i thought best to post the solution here.
I'm updating here after an upgrade of OBS blew my solution because the link into the app folder got removed.
After placing the plugin into ~/Library/Application\ Support/obs-studio/plugins/ i did not need to link it anymore and OBS found it automatically.
Looks like installing for all users does not work.
Thanks!
