Hmm... weird. I tried on another MacOS system with the latest plugin and OBS v30.1.2 and it works... I have to see if I can reproduce on the problem system with a simpler setup...
That would be great, because I tried it on a colleague's Macbook and it doesn't work on his Macbook either.

Since updating to the new version of this plugin my OBS doesn't hold steady like it did with the previous version. I now get major frame drops, missed frames and skipped frames galore with my GPU encoder now apparently overloading.
I use this plugin to record my cam separate from the game I'm playing as it makes it easier to hide my cam when editing.

Scratch that, after downloading the installer version instead of the manual installer file it seems to be working again.

To my annoyance it has started doing it again after a minute of recording. I wish I never updated now as I didn't have problem with 0.3.2 :(
Is there anyway to go back version or am I stuck with this one

Just installed it and having some issues. For one, I never get it to record 2 sources at once. Next, once a while the record mode changes back to the default "None". Sometimes the recorded videos are bugged and shows striped rainbow colors.

I'm having some trouble with recording three cameras. Two of them are Logitech webcams and the other one is fed through the Elgato HDMI capture board. I'm running Windows 11, OBS is updated and I can't figure out why it either only records two cameras, occasionally three, mostly one and not to mention that the one running through HDMI varies in quality, despite all the settings being the same across all sources. Unfortunately, in my experience, it all seems very inconsistent. Thanks

So at the moment I have 2 different scene collections and profiles for recording and streaming. I have the Source Record filter on my Webcam source on my recording scene and that's it. When I switch to my Streaming profile from my recording profile, and switch to my streaming scene from my recording scene, I get this error message. I deleted the plug in from my obs instance since I had an old version but he problem still persists. Once I deleted the program I was switch back and forth from switching scenes and profiles and no error message. Any thoughts?

Hello! @Exeldro - running into a problem where just having source record installed is causing a crash when I start streaming to any service. This happens without any filters set so I'm not even using source record. Any ideas how I can better diagnose this? This is on an M1 Mac Studio.

Is it possible to ONLY record the sources and not the combined traditional screen? Sure I can just delete the main recording but trying to reduce GPU load when recording. this is likely more of a generic OBS question?

BTW this plugin is working amazingly for me. 2070 Super and recording monitor and camera, both at 1080. the camera goes goes throuugh Nvidia broadcast where I am adding a green screen background to my image. With the screen capture and my webcam (greenscreen) files I can combine the two with video software (Davinci) and combine how i need.. move around as video progresses. etc

Exeldro: The latest version of Source Record still doesn't fix OBS v30.1.x hanging when one tries to stop recording (MacOS ARM). The latest plugin works fine if I downgrade to OBS 30.0.2.

To test, just enable source record on one or more sources/scenes. Start recording. Try to stop recording. It will say "Stopping recording..." forever until force quit.
FYI: With the latest Source Record and the latest commit from OBS (actually even earlier, but I didn't want to test to see which one made it work), Source Record works flawlessly! Which is awesome!

Here is the one I am using now. https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/actions/runs/9071742074
Just download OBS from the build action. IT is basically a beta of the next revision of OBS. It shows up as 30.1.0-191-gce4c99be4 on the top when I run it.

Now I can finally use my mixer board without having to use Loopback to create different sources for each mic. Which added a slight delay to the audio channels. And more overhead.

Once the official next build of OBS comes out, I guess this Issue can be closed :)

I am using an M1 also ;)

Yes! Just change the recording mode to Always, instead of any other option, and set a hot key for the filter to enable and disable the the filter to trigger the recording. Also good to have the destination folder open on your computer to make sure you see the files being created when you start your recording, as there wont be anything in OBS that shows recording is active.
