Hello, I have been having my stream crash and getting an nvenc encoding error pretty often and I'm not sure what the issue is.

My monitor briefly goes black then comes back and I have an error on OBS claiming nvenc crashed.

my logs:

crash report upload:

I have fully uninstalled drivers in safe mode and reinstalled, did not fix the issue.

hopefully these are the correct logs, please let me know if I need to provide anything else.

Thank you!

The crash log provided indicates an error in libcef, the Chromium-based Browser Source module. Try switching off Hardware Browser Acceleration in OBS as a temporary patch. It's likely one of your browser sources is doing something weird and triggering the crash; you'd need to go through and switch them off, then bring them back on one by one until the crash happens again to narrow it down to which one is causing it to happen.

It *does* sound more like a GPU crash though. The black-screen being the crash, then the reset to restore them terminating the NVENC session, leading to OBS' error message that NVENC crashed.
I had that happen myself when my GPU was starting to fail on a hardware level.
