Arch Linux User Repository

For those who might ask why libva-vdpau-driver was added to conflicts.

It is the only way at package level to prevent the user to have segfaults because of this driver. This will not be fixed on OBS side since this is not an OBS issue.

The driver is only loaded with Nvidia cards.

Try libva-nvidia-driver if you really need Nvidia decode through VAAPI.

This package have some dependencies with version check, it will allow you to rebuild the package only when your system is correctly updated. This feature is not enabled on Manjaro.

If you have any issue, please before commenting rebuild this package (a clean build) and try again to make sure it's not because of a library update.

Pamac has a messed up dependency checker, use another AUR helper for the first install.

This AUR package provide OBS with all the missing feature except Twitch, Restream and YouTube integrations.

More explaination here: https://ideas.obsproject.com/posts/1558/

It provide any dependency needed for Wayland support.

It also contains some unmerged PR or backported fix documented in the PKGBUILD.

I'm quite active on OBS discord server (don't PM me directly), so if I saw something that need to be backported I add it.

27.2.3 is a Windows only hotfix.

CMake Error at plugins/linux-capture/CMakeLists.txt:54 (message): PipeWire library not found! Please install PipeWire or set ENABLE_PIPEWIRE=OFF

I do have pipewire installed and am using it, not sure why its not picking up? There's a obs forums post saying to install libpipewire-0.3-dev on debian, but Arch doesn't have an equivalent I think (no dev packages so simple pipewire should be sufficient?)

sounds like following commands are working:

yay -R obs-studio-tytan652 # remove but keep dependencies installed
yay -Syyuu # update system and accept ffmpeg-obs to be replaced by ffmpeg temporarily
yay -S obs-studio-tytan652 --needed # reinstall obs-studio-tytan652 and missing packages if needed and accept ffmpeg replacement with ffmpeg-obs as a dependency
yay -Scc --noconfirm # clean caches

@tytan652 Tried the suggested way, still dependency problems. I guess I cannot remove ffmpeg-obs as it will remove also obs-studio-tytan652... Trying to guess the proper way to continue and not succeeded.... Shall I really remove whole obs-studio-tytan652 with all dependencies, install other system updates and then reinstall obs-studio-tytan652 and accept ffmpeg replacement with ffmpeg-obs again? If there is no other way, I can try that.

yay -S obs-studio

FFmpeg 5 update method:

yay -S obs-studio ffmpeg # Switch to repo OBS to keep plugins installed
yay -Syu # Update
yay -S obs-studio-tytan652 # Reinstall obs-studio-tytan652 and ffmpeg-obs

Hello @tytan652

Now again ffmpeg and ffmpeg-obs are in conflict, when to update. ffmpeg-obs is asked to remove. Is it OK? Seems, that both variants are not OK and packages upgrade is broken currently :( What shall I do? Remove obs with its dependencies completely and reinstall it? Or can you fix dependencies? Not using Artix like @shuib, but EndeavourOS, which is very close to Arch Linux itself.

Then tried to not update these packages, what were depending on it:

I have hard time trying to build the package. When build process gets to 89%, an error occurs:

I was trying to figure it out with different AUR helpers and with some googling, but with no success. Would appreciate any support on this. FYI, trying with obs-studio-browser returns same output; dependencies are satisfied, clean build with yay ends the same way.

@tytan652 thank you very much kind Sir!

@shuib 59-64 mean that you have actually ffmpeg 5 installed, a package that is in Arch Linux staging repo.

For my package I follow Arch Linux stable repo. Artix seems to make stupid move for AUR users. https://artixlinux.org/news.php#FFMPEG_upgrade

Hello @tytan652.

Thanks for your amazing work. I'm using artix linux. I've tried doing a clean build before posting. After choosing Y on ffmpeg question i get the following:

:: ffmpeg-obs and ffmpeg are in conflict. Remove ffmpeg? [y/N] y error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: removing ffmpeg breaks dependency 'libavcodec.so=59-64' required by chromaprint :: removing ffmpeg breaks dependency 'libavformat.so=59-64' required by chromaprint :: removing ffmpeg breaks dependency 'libavutil.so=57-64' required by chromaprint :: removing ffmpeg breaks dependency 'libswresample.so=4-64' required by chromaprint

i;ve tried to manually remove chromaprint and reinstall again using yay -S obs-studio-tytan652 but package is reinstalled during install process and those errors come again. Please help.
