About Flatpak

If you use Flatpak OBS, you need to install Flatpak OBS plugin.
If you use Flatpak Steam, you need to install Flatpak Capture tools to be able to capture games running inside Flatpak Steam runtine.

For capturing games outside Flatpak runtime, you need native build regardless of if you are using Flatpak OBS or not.

Dependencies

  • cmake
  • libobs
  • libvulkan
  • libgl
  • libegl
  • libX11 (optional)
  • libxcb (optional)
  • libwayland-client (optional)
  • wayland-scanner (optional)

Building

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make && make install

Usage

  1. Add Game Capture to your OBS scene.
  2. Start the game with capture enabled obs-gamecapture %command%.
  3. (Recommended) Start the game with only Vulkan capture enabled env OBS_VKCAPTURE=1 %command%.

Troubleshooting

NVIDIA

Driver version >= 515.43.04 and nvidia-drm.modeset=1 kernel parameter are required. In Wayland session make sure OBS is running on Wayland and not XWayland.
