Expected Behavior

Expected browser source to play the embedded video just as it does inside a web browser.

Current Behavior

I am trying to get Twitch clips to play inside a web page that is set as a Browser source. The web page loads inside OBS but the video file does not play, it is just empty. I tested this with various video formats. The only ones that work are webm and ogg, however, Twitch clips are in mp4 format.

Steps to Reproduce

1.Tested using https://www.twitch.guru/tools/soclip.html as a browser source - FAILED 2.Created a html page that contains javascript to detect if video/mp4 is supported and playable. Returns True in Chrome, Returns False in OBS. 3.Tested inside and outside of OBS.

Anything else we should know?

Proprietary codecs are not supported in the current release of obs for linux. This has already been resolved for the upcoming 27.2 release.

the older obs-linuxbrowser works for twitch.guru https://github.com/bazukas/obs-linuxbrowser/releases/tag/0.6.1

i dont use obs 27.1.3, i use 26.0.2 with obs-browser removed... ymmv.

@kkartaltepe Can you please elaborate on which propriety codecs will be supported in the upcoming 27.2 linux release?

Those codecs enabled by the flag proprietary_codecs. You would need to poke around in chrome to find a more exact list, the most common that users care about being h264.
