Jumpgate not working with OBS Browser

Hi everyone! So, I am trying to stream my session with OBS. I created a game using jumpgate and it worked fine with mozilla and chrome, but when I open the game uisng OBS Browser for broadcast purposes it shows a blank page where the maps should be. It happens with all pages and maps inside the game: However, if I load an older game that uses the Classic Roll20 VTT Engine, then it shows my maps perfectly: Since it is not possible to revert a game from Jumpgate to the classic roll20 Engine I will have to create my game all over again from scratch! Which I obviously don´t want to do. Is there any solution for this bug in the near foreseeable future? Am I the one doing something wrong??? I will appreciate if anyone could give me a solution. Using Linux here (Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS) with OBS 30.2.3 in a Lenovo Ideapad3 (AMD Ryzen 5 5500 - 18 GB RAM- Integrated graphics hardware)

I don't know how to make it work in OBS Browser mode.  But you can stream your game with OBS window-capture mode(s) instead, without using OBS Browser. You can use OBS to stream/record a window of Firefox or Chrome, which are the 2 browsers that Roll20 officially supports. 
That's the workaround I am using. Problem is that I am already relying on too many window-captures to show other stuff (the players, dice rolls...) and that is putting too much pressure on my computer, the video of the players are stuttering and dropping frames, I found out that using the native obs browser is less "stressfull" to my computer then using window-captures of other browser.
I would highly recommend sending in a help center request to see if they have a way to make OBS work with Jumpgate.

The one bit I can add, in case this helps anyone troubleshooting,  Browser Source in OBS is based on Chrome Embedded Framework Paris Pimenta said: That's the workaround I am using.

I have those issues too, with OBS, so I am sympathetic what you're saying!

You just read my mind. Thanks. Roll20 doesn't guarantee that their vtt will work with any other browser besides chrome and Firefox.

If they reply I will let you know.
