For a long time I enjoyed the usual OBS everything was fine. Recently I moved to the OBS studio.
Several write cycles are normal, then there is a video driver crashes.
I tried different drivers from nvidia
Record video from games rust

This is the error in your log:

Failed to open NVENC codec: Generic error in an external library

I'm guessing that this might be a driver problem. From looking at this it doesn't appear that OBS itself crashes so what application crashes if any or do you get the error from Nvidia/Windows saying that the driver needs to be re-initialised?

Can you go to your settings, Output, Recording tab and drop down the Encoder box and list all the entries under there, screen shot is fine if you can catch it

Please don't bump your posts, it's really rude. Everyone on this forum is a volunteer and we try to get around to these issues when we have time.
 
Thanks for the answer. I understand. Here are the screenshots, if I understand correctly:

OK that looks fine. Are your Nvidia drivers up to date? Can you also confirm whether obs crashes or whether its the game that crashes or whether you get some other error.
 
I just updated my GeForce experience and that seemed to fix it. Right Click the icon in your notification tray and click "check for updates"
 
I can confirm my geforce drivers and experience are up to date but I'm still having the same issue.
Versions I'm running :
Experience - 2.11.3.6
Game Ready Driver - 365.19

I've also attached a log file,
Thanks,
