Advanced Scene Switcher 1.36.1

[PaulCroft]

There is no crash log available and I cannot get into the setting on the plug in as it crashes as soon as I try to load OBS with the plug in activated. I can only open OBS in safe mode if Advanced Scene Switcher is active.

I really don't want to have to do a complete clean install of OBS and the plug in as I have quite a bit set up in my scenes that would require a few hours to put it all back together again.

Can you share your scene collection json file?

You can usually find it here:
C:\Users\<your username here>\AppData\Roaming\obs-studio\basic\scenes

Maybe the plugins settings are somehow corrupted and are causing the issue.

If you are familiar with json files / syntax you can try to remove the "advanced-scene-switcher" block from the file.
(But always keep a backup of the original file just in case).

This is the only scene JSON available besides the back up. I am not a fan of modifying files unless I am 100% sure what I am doing.

I added the .txt to the end of the file to allow it to be uploaded.

Thanks for sharing your settings!
I think I have spotted the problematic macro:

The "Show Image" macro will cause an endless loop:

If the source "Subscribe" in your case or "Color" in my adapted macro becomes active - which happens on OBS startup - it will execute a random macro from a list of macros.
That list of random macros only contains a single macro - the "Show Image" macro itself.
Thus it executes the "Show Image" macro.
This in turn then again picks a random macro to execute, of which there is only a single possible selection, ... and so on.

Usually you should be greeted by this popup in case such a freeze was detected:

If you choose to not start the plugin, you should be able to open the settings dialog and disable the problematic macro.

In case that is not an option for you, I have attached the "cleaned up" version of your scene collection file, in which the "Show Image" macro was removed.

Hope that helps!
