MAC SOLUTIONS FOR OBS
IF THE DOWNLOAD WON’T OPEN:
If your OBS download will not open it may be because your macOS is not 10.13 or newer. (You can check this by clicking the top left apple-> about this mac).
If so use this link: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/releases/tag/24.0.6
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and select “obs-mac-24.06.dmg” under “Assets” to download. Don’t worry this file is safe! Github is a well-known code sharing and storage website.
This version should work for any macOS 10.12.6 or newer. If even this one doesn’t work contact me and I can find you an even older version!
STREAM KEY:
If you cannot connect your twitch account because it asks for your stream key instead of logging you in to twitch. Go to your twitch account->channel->customize channel->stream key & preferences.
Then copy your primary stream key to the OBS prompt and you should be connected!
DESKTOP AUDIO OUTPUT:
If you have issues with capturing your desktop audio follow the steps for OBS via the following link. Unfortunately, Mac is finicky and makes you install a 3rd party application to give OBS the ability to capture your audio out. This page has a well thought out step by step instruction guide in doing that. https://billykorando.com/2020/04/14/capturing-desktop-and-zoom-audio-in-obs-on-macos/
