I've used OBS before with no problems, but the other day I tried to start a stream in the same way that has worked previously, and the stream wouldn't go online. After noticing this, OBS seems to crash when I do anything with streaming. If I click preview or start stream, it continues to say that the stream is offline, and if I click anything after this, OBS crashes. I've updated my drivers, restarted my computer, and read the Laptop? sticky with no help. Can anyone help me with this?

It still crashes even without that, I've tried having no sources whatsoever with the same problem.Don't use monitor capture on laptops. In fact, best to use OBS MP.
1080p is high to record at for your laptop, does down-scaling help?It still crashes even without that, I've tried having no sources whatsoever with the same problem.

Well it's worked in the past with no problems, so I don't know what to tell you. The multiplatform program seems to work though, so I guess I'll just use that from now on?strong for what? a laptop? sure. strong for a gaming + encoding machine? no
Its a new build instead of the old OBS which has been patched for years. the new build is new as in the back end is better coded. the UI changed as well.Well it's worked in the past with no problems, so I don't know what to tell you.
