OBS crashes external screen?

I am running OBS 29.1.3 on Mac OS Sonoma.

When I lecture, I use OBS to combine my iPad with a browser window and sometimes a terminal.
This started to crash wuiteoften during my lectures when the semester started a few weeks back (before that I did not use it for about 3 months and maybe I was on a previous version of OBS before.

Even if the iPad is not connected and I run OBS in full screen on the second screen this crashes – sometimes within a few seconds sometimes only every 3-5 minutes. For a 90 minute lecture that is still a lot of times,
Sometimes just the external display (=projector) resets, sometimes even OBS crashes. This also seems to be the case with OBS 30.

This is a bit annoying – any ideas what I could do? Until July (last semester) ir worked fine for about 3 years (started with that in 2020).

Im also having issues with external display with OBS over mac Sonoma. It doesn’t crash OBS so much anymore but it makes the external go completely black when I try and use it as a screen capture device. I can still see my mouse go into that screen in OBS- but no applications show up- or anything I drag into the extrnwl
Display.

Any advice?
