Hello, I wonder if someone has come across this issue and has a solution as it's really holding me up from progressing with my podcast:

I have a mid-2010 Mac Pro 5,1 with metal graphics and powered USB 3 hub as well as a recently installed USB 3 / USB C PCIe card. I have successfully installed Sequoia 15.5 using the incredible OpenCore Legacy Patcher and all is well except that when I want to capture video from my Panasonic Lumix GH4 or GH5 using a U-Green video capture card into OBS or other podcast software that I've so far tried, the capture card shows up but there is no video.

When I boot up in my older Mojave OS using an earlier version of OBS everything is fine. Equally the Lumix Beta USB capture software also works in Mojave but not in Sequoia. I know that my old Mac has issues with legacy USB, hence the powered USB options that I've installed, but still no image appears.

I am considering purchasing a couple of dedicated webcam cameras, but I have my doubts about whether they would work if my GH cameras don't. It seems to me that there may be some simple lines of code or Terminal commands that may clear this as it's surely something to do with USB, or is it? Why no video through USB with my new system?

I hope I've explained things clearly but am happy to provide more information if required. I'm also hoping that this is the right part of the forum to post this, but I'm sure I'll be pointed to the right place if not!

Many thanks in advance.
 
In Sequoia, in Settings > Privacy & Security > Screen & System Audio Recording, OBS toggled “on”?
 
I have reposted this in the correct section for Desktops rather than Notebooks. Sorry about that.
