OBS starts the stream by itself

Hello, I have a big problem. I stream via OBS and use a direct connection to Restream. When OBS is open and then I open Restream in the browser, the stream in OBS just starts by itself . This is very dangerous! What can I do about this. I just can't find a cause.

This has been happening for about a year. Before that I had hundreds of streams without this problem.

Thanks a lot

Looks like Restream is sending a signal to start the stream to OBS. Are you using a plugin or something you installed to automate this task and then forgot about it?

Thank you for your help. No, I do not use a plugin. I have also already contacted Restream. They say the following: Hmm on the Restream side we don't have a way to start your stream in OBS. So opening Restream in your browser shouldn't be starting the stream in OBS, we don't have the technical ability to do that.

I'll make a video tomorrow and post it here. Maybe that is more informative.
