Open Broadcast Software

I had been looking at the error and not the version of the driver. This 
message made me look at the version of the drivers you were trying to 
install and realized that they are very very old (released February 16th 
2015).

Download the latest version from:
https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/download/28c40e5147c34a3eacb279d74d576630/Linux

Just click on the "Download only" link in the lower left corner of the 
window.

This will give the the version of the software that I have verified to 
work on my own ubuntu 18.04 machine.
