Download VLC and watch the videos in that.

99/100, this issue is caused by people playing videos back in WMP (or TV & Movies, which is just WMP) which has terrible, crappy codec support.
 
Im having a similar issue in regards to tying to stream. I have a line coming out of the back of my DDJSX2 into the back of my computer into the microphone port. I have default set as microphone and have disabled my other mics ports and defaulted this port as main. Running Win 10 I3 core 12 gigs ram 1tb hd

Open a new thread with all of your own information. Don't post your own issue to take over someone else's thread (hijacking).

In this case though, the error is 'device already in use', meaning either another program is running and is using the audio device (PIONEER DDJ-SX2) in exclusive mode (probably your DAW software, and usually to reduce latency significantly), or it's using ASIO drivers which OBS does not support.

The workaround is either to disallow exclusive-mode use for the device at the OS level (go into recording/playback device settings and find the 'allow programs to use this device in exclusive mode' tickbox, and uncheck it), install different audio drivers (probably not possible given that it's a DJ controller), or buy a cheap $10 USB soundcard and pipe audio through that for monitoring.
