OBS Studio 33

> Updated CEF from 127/6533 to 150/7871

Finally... The CEF they used was 2 years out of date, and after RCE exploits [0] occuring in the wild getting big enough that they got picked up in the media [1], we finally have a fix 1 month later.

There are a handful of comments here rueing buggy behaviors. These days with nearly the same amount of effort to post a complaint you can delegate the task of reproducing the issue, diagnosing the root cause, and proposing a fix. Yes, it may incur a small to moderate cost, but it's a contribution to an open source project that apparently provides some value in return.

Did they finally fix the bug where if you have less than ~40gb storage the recording will just randomly die for no reason with no notice, it is unimaginably annoying

Love OBS! It's so far ahead of proprietary apps in so many areas, it's incredibly impressive

While we're here, does anyone know a screen recording application that automatically takes into account display changes, audio device changes, camera resets, etc.?

I'm making do with OBS, but I lose more video to "plugged in external monitor and forgot to update OBS config" than I actually record.

Using OBS only when it’s a must

Much happier with Cap for screencast recording https://github.com/capsoftware/cap

Is solved the source disconnection with macOS ? Even it's an OS problem.

The plugin-loading overhaul and improved source snapping look like useful updates. OBS continues to show how much attention to detail matters in open-source software. Excited to see how creators and plugin developers adapt to version 33.0!
