OBS audio loop even worse in 0.15.0

[Fanotherpg]

Here is video recording which goes step by step and explains:

In short.

By default OBS plays back ANY microphone input (even if my default is non-active it will play back from the standing Blue Yeti microphone), as visible on video.

IF OBS is muted, it stops recording ANY outgoing audio source

IF OBS is rerouted to other audio output it still plays back on the default output + rerouted one.

The only way to resolve it is to reroute the recorder audio to other audio output and decide not to record the default audio output (OBS one) at all, so no feedback loop is being heard.

IN OBS 0.14.2 I could instead reroute OBS itself and it was still recording default audio devices fine and it was not playing back on default audio card.

BUG 2:

Any video playback is crackled while OBS is running.

BUG 3:

While clicking stop save, randomly nVIDIA graphic drivers go boom and freeze whole system: GTX 580, 960, 960M tested on 3 different setups.

Missing logs from the problem sessions.

OK I provided audio log now from the last session I had (the video I posted).

And here's even a crash dump file.

Regular session logs are still recorded and we still need those.

Yeah I noticed my mistake, and found the option to provide them. I will look for crash dumps from my laptop in about 2 hours when I will have more time after work ATM I'm on a break.

You're getting the audio loop because you're adding the microphone to OBS multiple times.
ONLY ADD IT ONCE.

Unfortunately it is not a case.

The issue is that OBS is PLAYING BACK audio input via default audio output, even if it is said to play back via different audio card. This wasn't a case in 0.14.2.

 

[Harold]

OBS doesn't play back audio input in that manner.
And you have your microphone set in both settings - audio AND in the properties of the webcam. Remove it from the webcam.

Thanks a lot, it appears to resolve the issue with the audio loop. BUG 1 sorted, and it was my fault.

Any ideas how I could help in providing details for 2 other bugs?

If I have OBS open any other playback - VLC/Youtube gets very crackling audio-wise. (BUG 2)

Or while saving random NVIDIA graphics driver crashes?

Sometimes caused by sound driver problems. USB sound devices are more prone to this.

Or while saving random NVIDIA graphics driver crashes?

Clean reinstalls of display drivers using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) sometimes clear those up, as do using different versions of the nvidia drivers.

I will have a look into these and let you know. Thanks a dozen.
