OBS doesn't have a feature that stops and restarts the recording every few seconds, so it must be you who does this. Often there is a hotkey for starting/stopping the recording that is pressed unintentionally every few seconds. So check your OBS hotkeys.

There's no error, that just looks like a manual (non-hotkey, non-timed) stop.

m3u8 is used as playlist for hls and a segment size for hls is 4 secs afaik, that explains your problem. Record to mkv and your problem should be gone.
