adding GoPro as webcam crashes

[ZkReAr1718]

adding video source (gopro webcam utility) will crash my entire pc when added to obs / slobs

reinstalled windows and it still does it ... if I do not add gopro as webcam in obs it will not crash will have to restart pc
(it freezes my entire pc)... unplug gopro, close webcam utility and then open obs in order to work .... I suspect it is an issue with the gopro webcam utility

I would recommend addressing that issue with GoPro support. If it is freezing OBS itself that would usually mean an issue with the device but if your entire PC is freezing this means you are probably triggering some sort of driver lockup that would be far outside of the control of OBS.
