OBS on PineBook Pro
#1
Hi,

I wanted to record some video using the PineBook Pro WebCam so I installed OBS from PacMan (Manjaro). When I started OBS, OBS reported "Failed to initialize video.  Your GPU may not be supported, or your graphics drivers may need to be updated." Am I missing a driver? Is there another video recorder I should use? TIA.

Problem solved. At least for Webinars. Switched from FireFox to Chromium and my camera can be seen by attendees in WebEx, MS Teams and Zoom. OBS may never run on the PBP due to system requirements.
