Obs is crashing on start up. It's connected to my elgato. Not sure why. But when I unplug the hdmi from my elgato obs starts fine. This happens every once in awhile and I have to pretty much unplug the elgato and then remove the source and redo everything. It's a pain in the ass. here is a link to the crash log.

If there's any other information you need let me know. Apart from removing everything and trying to start fresh with the elgato is there any fix or something wrong with my version of OBS?

Yeah I figured as much. I was able to fix it a little easier this time around by turning off the hardware it was attempting to capture, removing the elgato from the scene and then adding it back again. Still though, I'm not sure what's causing this in the first place.
