Question / Help OBS disconnecting

[jeff taccetta]

Each time i go live, I'll OBS will disconnect and then reconnect multiple times. i recently updated to version 18.0.2. I've been having these issues for the last few streams. anyone know why this is happening?

That log shows no stream/recording attempt and doesn't have the issue for us to see what's going on.

I am pulling these logs off of OBS, which was live, yet the logs aren't showing i went live.... not sure what else to do

Your internet connection is dropping, causing the disconnects. Before you say "But everything else works fine!" note that RTMP is very fragile compared to other protocols, and the slightest interruption can cause all kinds of issues.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? And just so i understand, even tho the RTMP is dropping, that won't cause my other internet-connected devices to drop?

Correct.
