If OBS is running, UE4 engined Sherlock Holmes Chapter One crashes

[Netheri]

As the title says. To clarify, I have NDI system and the problem is easy to reproduce; just to open OBS and game crashes instantly after save game load or in under few minutes without even moving in the game. If OBS is not running, no problems in the game.

I've been using OBS quite a while and know the corners of it but this just baffles my mind. Sherlock Holmes Chapter One is the only game ever for me which crashes when OBS is running and yeah, it's not because of the specs (9900K, 32GB mem, 2080S oc).

And I've tried the obvious things like shutting NDI off and on, changed the canvas and output size, having the OBS on Admin Rights and without, enabled preview (it's usually off, as there's the lagging problem even with Admin Rights if it's on) Un-, and re-installed the game etc etc etc. One thing I haven't and will not do is to un-, and re-install OBS before fixed version, as this seems to be game or UE4 related problem there's no other games suffering from OBS and there's no new files to be installed as I'm on latest version of the OBS.

I also am in talks with the Frogwarez support but as I've noticed the game crashes only when OBS is running I think it concerns OBS devs too. I mean can't be good for the other UE4 games either?

There's the log but I doubt it tells much about this, as the OBS not the one crashing: https://obsproject.com/logs/HGJNTO_sJo3brKDi

Update: It's the hook of the game (and window) capture for video of the OBS that is the culprit as NDI outputs for audio only won't make the game crash. In an instant I select the capture for the game from the dropdown and pressed "ok", game crashed. I tried a workaround using the window capture but it crashes the game also (I'm playing in borderless window, as it gives option to use overlay chat).

Sorry for posting update as a new post under the op but I couldn't find a way to edit op.

Update2: I managed to find out that it's Nahimic service which seems to be crashing UE games. After stopping and disabling that service game doesn't crash anymore with OBS capturing it. So if you have ASUS mb and your Sherlock or other UE games are crashing (with or without streaming), try stopping and disabling the Nahimic service if it's running.
