Hi,

Seen people with similar issues.
I have the 13900k + 4090 setup.

The issue is that sometimes when i press "Start Streaming" the 4 screens starts flickering within 5s and all goes black into rebooting the screens.
When it comes back the game im playing (New World) is all black, im still ingame and can hear the ingame sounds etc but its black and in the background and i cant get it back without rebooting the game.

To fix the issue i have to reboot the entire computer to be able to stream again.

This is what happend last night:

Its setup with 5 sources since im on the G9 Neo 49" so people can actually see whats going on :P

Please help, its super annoying.
After these crashes my cant even open my CMD to reboot the computer, and i have to hardreset it with the damn on/off button.
iexplorer also crashes so cant go to taskmanager etc.

1. Audio buffering hit the maximum value. This is an indicator of very high system load, will affect stream latency, and may even cause individual audio sources to stop working. Keep an eye on CPU usage especially, and close background programs if needed.

Occasionally, this can be caused by incorrect device timestamps. Restart OBS to reset buffering.

Source affected (potential cause): [Cable B] Voice, Music etc
2. Display and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. Never put them in the same scene (Scene). Only use Display Capture if you need to capture Windows stuff such as desktop or Start menu.
3. Multiple Game Capture sources are usually not needed, and can sometimes interfere with each other. You can use the same Game Capture for all your games! If you change games often, try out the hotkey mode, which lets you press a key to select your active game. If you play games in fullscreen, use 'Capture any fullscreen application' mode.

The reason for the multiple sources is that i cant stream my entire desktop of 5120x1440 cause it will just be a line for the viewer.
If i rescale it, it will still be very tiny.

So what ive had to do is crop the canvas and then add sources and crop those to then put ontop of the bigger canvas so that all the important stuff will be on the screen for the viewer to see.

1. Havent had audio issues since getting Voice Meeter - software.
2. Ill see if i can do the same thing with croping it etc like i mentioned above, but only using Game Capture while doing it - is that better, than to mix the 2 together?
3. Cant do it any other way with this monitor...

Yeah, so that didnt work :)
If i just go Game Capture i cant show it ontop of the others as i can with Display Capture so i switched them all to Display Capture instead.
Not sure how that will affect it in the end though....
