OBS crashed after 27.2.1 update

[GTR.RiFF]

After installation of 27.2.1 update OBS starts with a crash all the time and there is no chance to run the app.

This crash is happening when trying to load one of your audio devices, for example microphone or speakers. Try disconnecting devices to see which it is.

Thanks for reply!
I've tried to do it like you said.
Devices that was disconnected:
- camera logi C920 (disconnected by removing cable),
- scarlett 2i2 (disconnected by removing cable),
- asus xonar (disconnected in win10 control panel -> device manager).
Did not help. Logs are attached.
Also, I've tried to play with disconnections through device manager of win 10 only, and in audio control panel of win 10 (connection/disconnection and assignment/unassignment as default devices).
Nothing has changed.
Also, I've uninstalled the app. with old settings and installed it again. Did not help.
And the last one. In zoom app. the OBS virtual camera is set for use. I thought it also might be a problem, but no. Changing the settings in zoom and even uninstalling zoom app. did not help.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

One more thing, have no idea is it helpful or not, but anyways:
after reinstallation of the OBS found that in Uninstall Tool app. it determines as x86 app. and there is no app. size info (MB).

For installation I was using latest version from obsproject.com.

hey there. How is your CPU usage? Did you have multiple applications open at the same time when you installed obs? Maybe you can clean your computer, update your hard drive, update your drivers. Reinstall and install obs.

I don't think it might be an issue.
CPU usage is fine and overall PC operation is good.

Checked this info on another computer. It is not an issue and it is not an error of installation.
Same app. version on my laptop works fine and same stuff represented in Uninstall Tool app.

I have an issue where after updating to 27.2.1 version of obs my streamFX plugin isn't working, I can't stream using that encoder setting NVENC via FFmpeg I can't stream. I tried switching the normal NVENC encoder it works fine.

 

[cyclemat]

its an ploblem of the stream FXplugin contact the dev of the plugin and a littel info from the site its maked as unstable !

 

[GTR.RiFF]

For now, I want to say that it is a problem of OBS ver. 27.2.1
I have found an earlier version 26.1.0 and installed it, and it works fine.

 

[cyclemat]

god let it rain brains !!!!

@GTR.RiFF NO ITS A PROBLEM WITH THE PLUGIN IT WORKS IN OLDER VERSIONS YES BUT IT MUST UPDATED BY THE DEVs TO WORK WITH 27.2.1
when you Delete the complete obs folder and reinstall it without install stream FX it works like a charm.

should the obs developers adapt OBS to each plugin? no, the plugin developers have to adapt it to the new OBS versions so that they work. and with streamfx the nvenc is even unstable and they say that you shouldn't use it productively.

I do not use the Stream FX plugin and have never installed it.
Please, check the first message of this topic. After an update I'm not able to run the OBS.

I too have had non-stop problems after the update. If I want an older version of OBS, how do I go get it?

 

[Blackink]

Older versions of OBS software...

Or see this thread: post #2.

Since updating to 27.2.1 two times during a live stream to YoutTube OBS freezes causing YoutTube to end the live stream. I did not have a problem with previous version. Log file attached. The first time was 41 minutes into the stream and the second time was 34 minutes into the stream. I have to click the close window to stop OBS.

 

[WindyJMusic]

Crashes continue. I'm stubbornly keeping 27.2.1, but I will be removing it soon if we don't find a solution here. Can someone look at this and tell me if I'm doing something stupid?
As I was typing this, I reopened OBS again (to find the crashes log folder), then closed it, and it crashed again. I did nothing else. So here are two crash reports.

 

[crick]

Same here. Everyday fine and since 27.2.1 freeze while streaming at Twitch. Thank you anyway for the free program :-)

 

[daimonxp]

Having the same issues as well. OBS has always been super stable for years and years. After 27.2.1 crashes at times. Streaming to twitch Win10.

UPDATE all drivers GPU CHIPSET and so one

DONT use STREAM FX PLUGIN & Stream Elements plugin

WHEN YOU HAVE USED THIS PLUGINS IN THE PAST PLEASE DELETE THE COMPLETE OBS FOLDER AND REINSTALL OBS !

OTHER PLugins can be incompatible too ! its not an OBS issue its need update of the plugin from the creator
