Hello! I have the macbook pro retina 13 inch from 2015. the processor is 2.7 GHz with dual core intel core i5 with memory of 8 GB and graphics of 1536 MB. I have my mac updated to macOS Big Sur 11.2.1. A couple hours into my streams i click a random button not in OBS (i click a button within chrome, for example) and my entire mac including OBS decides to SHUT DOWN MY COMPUTER COMPLETELY. It only happens when I have OBS on and I feel like its related to that. I have an ethernet cord hooked up to my computer and the stream doesn't lag much and I'm so confused why this is happening. I attached my log reports of the time it approx happened (happened around 15:00:00 ish?). It seems like it happens when my computer isn't overloaded with stuff honestly. It's the strangest times.

Hi!
If it's possible, try to disconnect all needed USB devices, including iOS.
+ Have u tried to clean uninstall it?
This unpleasant situation may be due to power problems (power cord, supply) or with overall high temperature at some point (just make sure that ur Mac isn't dusty as my dog with fleas)) or with the new macOS Big Sur release. Also, check (carefully) if everything ok with the system (no profiles, some heavy background apps, and processes
 
OBS hard crashing a mac is nothing new. I have seen crashes like this using one of the iPhone / OBS Camera apps. At least in my cases they are not ready for primetime. In performance monitor, check and see how much GPU resources OBS is using. If it's excessive, drop down to a non-retina resolution.
