@tt2468 When we can expect this feature to go live?

@dhruv-prajapati, in case you still need a solution:

Since OBS Studio currently doesn't have v5.3.0 implemented, you can't use SetRecordDirectory, you can use the old method's SetProfileParameter:

This is for JavaScript

// Sets a new recording path
obs.call('SetProfileParameter', { 'parameterCategory': 'SimpleOutput', 'parameterName': 'FilePath', 'parameterValue': selectedFolderPath })

// Prints the now changed values
obs.call('GetProfileParameter', { 'parameterCategory': 'SimpleOutput', 'parameterName': 'FilePath' })
    .then(result => {
        console.log('Result:', result);
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.error('Error:', error);
    });

What worked for me was setting: parameterCategory -> "SimpleOutput" parameterName -> "FilePath"
