OBS 18.0.1-ftl.0.9.4 - Cant Start Missing 'widevinecdm.dll'

Closed this issue · 7 comments

I cannot launch OBS 18.0.1-ftl.0.9.4. I get 'The program can't start because the widevinecdm.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.' I did not have this issue with 17.0.2 with FTL.32

Installing the Widevine CDM plugin for IE and Chrome did not fix this problem. I can confirm the path to the DLL and the DLL version.

  • C:\Users\AhhYiss\AppData\Local\Steam\widevine\widevinecdm.dll

  • widevinecdm.dll, v1.4.8.903, 5.52 MB, 7/15/2016, 6:03pm

@KirscheBuster can you run normal OBS? If so, do you have a web browser in any of your scenes?

Quinn, I can run normal OBS. I do have web sources enabled using stream jar and loots.

@KirscheBuster do you have chrome installed?

Quinn, yessir I do.

I am having this same problem. No fix yet?

Actually I solved it. I went to this site: https://www.dll-files.com/widevinecdm.dll.html and downloaded the widevinecdm.dll file. I then dropped it in the bin/32bit folder. From there it worked.
