OBS Scene JSON File Enlarged/Bloated in size

[gefrost]

Hey guys, just noticing my OBS takes 5 minutes to startup, then I saw the scene file is very bloated in term of file size

The scene file goes up to 100MB-ish, no wonder it takes long time to load

The scene on the OBS actually consist of single image, playback link, and thats it. no big image actually embedded on it.

How it possible, how I can fix it and prevents it in the future?
Thanks

That's insanely big.
You want to reduce the amount of scenes in each scene collection. Something isn't right in there.
A log file with the scene collection with issues (one is enough) is needed too.

Usually, each *.json file is just 1-10 kb. These are text files, try to load one into Notepad and see what's filling them up. May be you have some source from a plugin that's saving its data there.

@koala I think, that loading 100MBytes file to Notepad for analysis is not the best idea. Also, depending on version, OBS files may be unformatted JSON - in Notepad it will look like a text wall. Notepad++ with plugins to format JSON is more suitable for this task, but the file needs to be truncated with hexeditor tools (like HxD) before it can be loaded into the Notepad++ for formatting. Less than 10MBytes is OK.
