OBS 31 Beta 1 downgrade to 30.2.3
Not sure why a beta was put in the main repo but how can I downgrade to 30.2.3? 31 has a major flaw with its version of browser sources where they are not transparent where they should be. Make a lot of OBS elements unusable.

This is the output from rpm-ostree when i try and install the rpm
this is the output when i try and install libavutil
This was after I performed an rpm-ostree uninstall obs-studio and rebooted
you can downgrade flatpaks with warehouse
please don't try to install the rpm, we never do that
No flatpak
non-flatpak plugins are broken in flatpak
you can use distrobox in that case
layering obs is a hard won't-support
I tried that and half the UI elements were transparent.
ok, so then my only option is to rebase to 40
you may use distrobox or the flatpak
flatpak has a huge assortment of plugins, distrobox is known to be 100% functional
layering OBS will never be supported by us, and downgrading to 40 will mean no security updates
My other option is going back to windows.
sure, all good options
personally, ill live with the lack of security patches until the beta obs is out of the 41 base repo.
ok, but if the point of using 40 is to fix layered obs
the next time you upgrade to 41 and it breaks you're gonna be right back here -- being told we won't help you because you did it wrong
I would highly recommend you stop laying OBS and work with us to fix your distrobox one
or use the flatpak
unless they fix what they broke in OBS
flatpak wont work because it lacks the plugins i use, when i tried the distrobox version, the UI elements were half transparent and unreadable.
distrobox will work, whatever is going on there is fixable
tons of people use OBS in distrobox
if you open a help thread for that we can almost certainly fix it
ok, ill give distrobox one more chance, i have until tonight to fix it.
Solution
distrobox create --name fedora --image ghcr.io/ublue-os/fedora-distrobox:latest
distrobox enter fedora
sudo dnf install obs
distrobox-export --app obs
is that the same as the ujust install-obs-studio-portable command?
that one is a special version of OBS maintained by a community member
it's much older, but comes with more plugins than fedora even offers for OBS in their repos
ok, well thats the one that was transparent in half the UI
that actually worked perfect
I'm able to use all my plugins too
Thank you
