Hi there, I’ve been scouring all night to see if anyone has had this same issue, but nobody in my search seems to have brought up my particular issue so I thought I’d try asking here.
My problem here is whenever trying to window capture games in OBS on Wayland, these games would essentially just freeze and lock up and end up being unplayable. However this only seems to affect games being played via WINE/Proton, games with native Linux versions are seemingly unaffected by this problem. This seems to be a fairly recent occurrence as I’ve personally not experienced this until earlier this month.
However, this problem is completely negated via screen capture and choosing my monitor as the display. Games seem to work perfectly fine that way regardless whether they are native Linux versions or played via WINE/Proton.
To be completely honest, I’m really not sure how I can even report this issue or which project to bring this issue to light with. I’m not sure if it’s an OBS issue, a WINE issue or a Wayland issue and I’ve yet to find a permanent fix as I much prefer capturing games via window capture. Has anyone else experienced this problem and which project would be best to report this problem to?
Steps to reproduce:
- Log in to a Wayland session
- Open OBS Studio
- Add Screen Capture (select windows tab)
- Open WINE/Proton game
- Select game window in Screen Capture (optional, so long as the game window is selectable and Screen Capture remains opened on the windows tab)
- Watch as the game proceeds to freeze and lock up
