OBS Freeze

Good evening, all!

I've been having an issue for a couple of months now and would really like to get to the bottom of it as it's effecting my streams.

My OBS keeps freezing randomly (The stream preview, chat and activity feed).

This only seems to happen when playing certain games, Hollow Knight and Dark Souls 2 to name recent examples.

It can happen minutes or hours into a session, and it can also happen off stream if OBS is open.

Both of my monitors go black for a few moments and then come back on, OBS comes back frozen as described above but there is no error messages or anything of the like.

Any ideas? I've tried a complete re-install of OBS and had no luck.

Might be worth mentioning that I've been using OBS for 3-4 years and this problem is new.

Cheers,

Descent

Please restart OBS and perform a test stream of at least 30 seconds doing as you normally do, including playing games, full camera or whatever you normally do.

Please review and follow directions and recommendations on the anlyzer:

OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. Stream to Twitch, YouTube and many other providers or record your own videos with high quality H264 / AAC encoding.

Consider reducing the output resolution to 720p (or less) as you've set 3500kbps
Also, consider using a wired connection instead of the wi-fi. This way you may increase the kbps in order to achive good quality for 1080p
