Linux
- If using debian-based distributions, you may have to get the latest FFmpeg
repo -- default debian packages seem to be a bit lacking, so you might have
to either get precompiled packages from http://deb-multimedia.org/ (or
similar sources, use your own judgement) or get the latest FFmpeg repo,
compile, and do a make install
- You need a fairly recent Linux distribution.
Ubuntu 14.04 or a similar recent Linux distribution works fine, but
anything that's up-to-date should work.
Ubuntu 13.10 or older will _not_ work because of the ancient
version of libav they use.
- Because Ubuntu and Debian come with libav instead of ffmpeg, you have
to get the original ffmpeg. Recommended:
For Ubuntu 14.04:
https://launchpad.net/~jon-severinsson/+archive/ubuntu/ffmpeg
For Debian:
http://www.deb-multimedia.org/
- There is also a ppa available in case you do not want to compile
yourself(Ubuntu 14.04 only):
https://launchpad.net/~btbn/+archive/ubuntu/obs-studio
- Build dependencies on Ubuntu 14.04 with ppa from above:
cmake libpulse-dev qtbase5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev libavcodec-dev
libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libx264-dev libswresample-dev
libfdk-aac-dev libxinerama-dev libxcomposite-dev libxrandr-dev
- Building in portable mode(assuming you are in a terminal in the
obs-studio base dir):
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DUNIX_STRUCTURE=0 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="${HOME}/obs-studio-portable" ..
make -j4 && make install
- After that you should have a portable install in ~/obs-studio-portable
Change to bin/64bit or bin/32bit and run ./obs to run it.
- If you want to install obs-studio into your system, it's recommended
to use checkinstall instead of a plain make install. It allows for a
clean uninstall and allows the package manager to keep track of the
installed files:
sudo apt-get install checkinstall
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DUNIX_STRUCTURE=1 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..
make -j4
sudo checkinstall
- Instructions pending -- linux code still under construction, and not yet
fully functioning. Will add more information later
