| OBS Studio 25.0.4 Apr 6, 2020 |
Added an option to use MixrElixr when using Mixer in the streaming section of settings Fixed a crash that could occur when using secure input fields on macOS. Because of a likely bug with macOS Catalina that was causing this crash, if you use secure input while using OBS, external hotkeys will no longer function for the duration of the program, so if you use hotkeys with OBS, we do not recommend using secure input while using OBS. (This is a temporary fix to the crash because the only way to fully work around it is likely rewriting the entire OBS macOS hotkey handling to a different hotkey-capturing method) Fixed a crash on Windows with certain audio devices Fixed a crash with Decklink output |
