Hi folks. OBS has always been super stable for me (since I moved from Mac to PC a couple of years ago - but I'm having an issue with one of my scenesets where it seems to be the only one that will always make OBS crash after about 1.5 hours. Other times I stream, with different scenescets of visuals, all similarly complicated run thought just fine.
I've recently upgraded my streaming PC to a new one - the previous NEVER crashed. (Windows 10. 5800x, 3080.) The new PC is a 5950X with a 3090, 64Gb RAM - custom built by SCAN, so should be solid as a rock and seems fine otherwise. It came supplied with Win 11, so I just went with that & don't really feel like wiping everything to roll back to Win 10 so could do with some experienced help with what's up with my logs as not something I've had to look into before.
I do DJ sets several times a week and have been for the last few years, streaming via restream.io to twitch. My set up is pretty hardcore, probably around 50+ scenes that just cycle through using advanced scene switcher. Occasionally I trigger certain scenes with a streamdeck, then the cycle just carries on.
I'm running the most recent version of OBS, and Advanced scene switcher. NVIDIA drivers always kept up to date. Prior to last crash I hadn't upgraded whatever the HS2S big windows 11 upgrade as I'd heard it had issues with NVIDIA drivers and held off, so thought it may be that. I have since done the upgrade so windows 11 is fully up to date, same with NVIDIA. And it still crashed on this sceneset.
I run OBS in admin mode.
Symptom is, about 1.5 hours into stream the video freezes, for viewers the stream drops, my end I see frozen video and OBS unresponsive though the audio meters still active in OBS. I have to cntl alt delete to force OBS to quit. I'm then able to relaunch it and start the stream up again and it survives OK until I end the stream. I only really stream for about 2.5 hours so unsure if it would freeze again later.
Really not sure what's causing this, pretty sure all my sources are behaving OK, and I don't have this issue with any of my other scenesets, which also have gazillions of scenes in the same way and never ever crash - its only limited to this one sceneset...
I don't really know whats going on with the logs but I see loads of "warning: Could not update timestamps for skipped samples." - googling that hasn't shown me anything that really helps.
I also notice a " [adv-ss] detected busy loop - refusing to sleep less than 1ms" a few times, coudl that be something.
(Note at 1719 I noticed I hadn't set the webcam to the right source so did that mid stream, but I've done that stuff before and had no issues so shouldn't be that...)
Uploading the log in the hope anyone with more detailed Devvvvvy knowledge could help shed some light on this and hopefully help find a solution that won't require me to clean install the whole system and just ditch win11 hahah!
(If you're wondering how/why my scenes are so mad have a look on my youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvypCiEOHYqlz6GQkaphTy-XY3QBXY08x)
