MX Linux Forum

so i'm having this weird issue were obs studio will basically changes all applications including itself to 640x360 on the second monitor

the resolution of my second monitor is 1280x720 but if i open obs and move it to that monitor it appears as if the monitor was set to 640x360 so it's all zoomed and squished together

this also seems to effect other applications as well such as virtualbox which is causing stuff like the vm settings window to glitch out

another issue i would like to insert into this one is with amdgpupro
for some reason switching to that kernel driver disables the ability to use ffmpeg vaapi and the radeon driver causes whatever is being displayed in obs to freeze even in the recording

this is obs installed from the mx repo itself not the flatpak version
and yes i did try a clean install using the test repo version same issues

just an update this may actually be related to qt itself as only my applications that use qt seem to have the issue
will post again after i find a fix

Here is basically what it looks like https://linuxrocks.online/system/media_ ... 1614970882

the monitor obs is on should be displaying it in a 720p screen space
instead it's displaying in a 640x360 display space

Seems like some setting is messed up, but I wouldn't know which one. OBS does not do this on my system.

Did you try deleting your ~/.config/obs-studio folder? You should probably back the folder up first by renaming it "old.obs-studio" or something similar, in case you want to go back to using it. So the step would be to backup the folder by renaming it: Then open obs-studio again and see if you still have the multi-monitor display problem. You may find that you have to reinstall obs-studio at that point.
