Bug Report Local recording doesn't work after failing to go live

[Baz]

Occasionally when recording it just seems to...not work at all. Within OBS everything looks fine when you click "Start Recording", but no file will appear in the recording location. When you click "Stop Recording", it'll just get stuck on "Stopping Recording..." until you close the program, and you end up with nothing. From what I can tell it seems to occur when you try to go live and it fails for whatever reason, and then attempt to local record after, though this doesn't seem to consistently result in it occurring every time. That's not terribly hard to avoid but it's very easy to fall into that by accident if you're not aware (and also easy to forget about it). I've had it happen on two different computers as well.

Here's the log files: https://gist.github.com/886fb0bbb2967cd5fe0df977fdfdac0a

Well, first:

14:36:07.220: Warning: The OpenGL renderer is currently in use.  On windows, the OpenGL renderer can decrease capture performance due to the lack of specific features used to maximize capture performance.  The Direct3D 11 renderer is recommended instead.

Why did you change the renderer? Go back to Settings -> Advanced and put that back on Direct3D 11. Don't touch settings you don't understand.

Second, you're recording directly to mp4, which is highly discouraged, as any interruption to the recording process will result in unrecoverable recordings. Change the file type back to flv, or if you need multiple audio tracks, mkv. Remux after to mp4 if you need to from the File menu.

Oh
I'm dumb I guess lol
I think I might've had a reason for that change but I don't really remember
I'll take you advice, thanks!
