OBS crashes when trying to open file or export anything

[SolidCapo]

OBS-Studio crashes when trying to open a file, or even to try to import/export, it crashes…don’t know why it does that and at first didn’t happen… :S not sure on which update began to happen :S

I’ve tried different installations but don’t work…what do you recommend

Someone told me to run obs-studio from terminal, but don’t know how to do that, i’ve just wrote this:

Please do not post pictures of the terminal. Use a code block for terminal output (use the “</>” button).

Welcome to the community

[SolidCapo]

Yes, i’ve done that but in that image was to ilustrate which ones i’ve tried and not working, but next time i’ll do everything with the code style
Anyway, any idea on my problems?

[SolidCapo]

Well, the solution finally arrived, it seemed to be a problem from KDE Plasma side, and was solved, check this out:

OBS closes with no error reports in log when I click ANY button that browses files.
