Greetings, I have a couple thousand sources in my OBS studio (and just one scene, to cut down on sources), now I'm experiencing errors with some files unable to play due to too many sources being open on my profile. I recently upgraded my RAM to 64GB since i thought OBS was having this issue due to only having 16GB of ram. Does OBS have a limit on sources per profile? Would it be possible to adjust some settings and keep all of my sources? Please note, the sources load once OBS is rebooted, but then some error out sometimes due to too many sources existing on my profile (even though the sources are inactive, they count as open).

Thanks!
