Question / Help CSGO Crashes Once OBS Stream Starts

Hello, I have a problem between CSGO and OBS. Everytime I try to stream CSGO using OBS (game capture), it crashes and says "csgo.exe has stopped working". If I don't stream, it works fine. Is there any way to fix this? Thank you.

This is almost always caused by interference from third-party software, usually a hook conflict. Make sure you don't have anything else trying to hook the game to e.g. show some kind of overlay. (Steam overlay is fine and not the cause.)

Warning -- GraphicsCaptureSource::AttemptCapture: Failed to inject library, error code = -5

So it certainly looks like a hook conflict, but OBS Studio doesn't report what it is. Here's a blurb from our IRC bot, see if any of these (or anything similar) are running.

Conflicts with Game Capture: Other capture programs, Razer Synapse (disable heatmaps), graphics mods like ENBSeries and SweetFX, and any type of software or utility that displays an in-game overlay like EVGA Precision, MSI Afterburner, TS3/Mumble overlays, Dolby Axon, Raptr, Overwolf, etc. If you use D3DGear it must be uninstalled completely.
