Question / Help OBS makes my games crash

Hello everybody,
i've been using OBS for a couple of weeks but i still have an issue that i can't get rid off:

Most of the times, if i change something into my scene (like even just moving one of the windows) my game will crash. This happens with multiple games and i've tried all the combinations of window capture/screen capture and the games being played as fullscreen or windowed, but the issue remains.
Even stopping nVidia's shadowplay didn't help.

Another thing that seems consistent: the crashes happen ONLY IF I'M STREAMING. If OBS is just sitting there running, or ever recording a video, the game won't crash no matter how many changes i make to the current scene. If i'm streaming to twitch, the game freezes as soon as i touch one item from the scene.

Any insight on what could be causing this?

Thanks in advance.
 
I have the same issue. I've been searching this forum for answers, but I can't seem to find the same issue. I'm pretty sure it's a DirectX issue, but don't know how to fix it.
