Hi there! I'm having some stream issues. OBS disconnects and goes through the 10 seconds of reconnecting every few minutes. This has only been happening for the last couple of days, and I haven't changed anything with my computer. My internet has been working fine for me and every other PC in the house.

Here is the most recent log file from yesterday.

I appreciate any help with this. Thanks.

if your setup worked fine than i would try to change the twitch server. sometimes i have also issues and i usually use the twitch frankfurt server. if this server makes some problems i use server like london or amsterdam.

Thanks for your idea. I tried changing the twitch server and I'm still being dropped constantly. :/

i dont mean that your inet have problems, i mean the twitch server have problems. try a different twitch server. also you could try the twitch bandwidth test from r1ch to see which server you should use.

I know that's not what you meant. I replied to your suggestion directly. The second post was just extra information.

oh ok.how i said if your setup worked fine then i dont think the problem is obs or your pc. maybe its your router. i remember a few years ago ive had a similar problem to this. i played online games and regularly i got lags for a few seconds. changed my router and it worked fine again. if its possible try to stream from another place or another accesspoint. to be sure maybe you should also try another pc or another obs version like obs classic.

I figured out what the problem was. I was saving my broadcasts on an external drive, and every once in a while the CPU usage of the drive would spike and cause obs to crash. I stopped recording the streams and my problem has since been solved.
