I am having issues with OBS crashing when I try to switch scenes that has a stream elements browser source that is not loading properly on startup. I have done a clean reinstall of obs and plugins and it is still crashing. Even not switching scenes and just letting obs sit on the problem scene for a few minutes the browser source goes blank and docks will flash then obs crashes.

after a bunch of searching I fixed my issue

1. Adding Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Dwm]
"OverlayMinFPS"=dword:00000000
2. Disable hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling
3. Adding this shortcut flag " --disable-gpu-compositing"

obs has been stable since but I did have to try and optimize all my scenes more than I already did to minimize my amount of browser sources. idk if that will help anyone but its what's working for me at the moment.
