OBS has been working great until recently while recording it displays the Yellow Pause symbol after approx 30 sec. Any thoughts? Thanks

Please post a log with your issue! Here's how...

OBS Studio creates a log file each time you run it which contains very useful diagnostic information. Without a log file, it's much harder for any support volunteers to figure out problems and your post may be ignored. To upload a log file, go to the Help menu > Log Files > Upload Last Log...

1. Run OBS as Administrator. Right click on the OBS shortcut, properties, advanced, check box, ok, apply, ok.
2. Record to MKV. If you record to MP4 or MOV and the recording is interrupted, the file will be corrupted and unrecoverable. If you require MP4 files for some other purpose like editing, remux them afterwards by selecting File > Remux Recordings in the main OBS Studio window or enable auto remux.
3. Display and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. Never put them in the same scene.
4. 00:36:16.751: Pausing recording due to hotkey
00:36:16.751: output simple_file_output paused
00:38:54.853: output simple_file_output unpaused

You have a hotkey to pause the video. Settings > Hotkeys > Pause Recording

I hate to break into this thread but I read your answer to the OP and saw "enable auto remux".
How do I do that? I don't see any setting that lets me do enable auto remuxing.

Thanks,
Steve
