Hi all, new to these parts so here's my issue:
When I finish a Twitch broadcast, I usually leave my stream on with a pending-countdown style video display until our next broadcast. Sometimes the broadcasts are a couple days apart. OBS usually won't have any trouble staying live for those crazy amounts of hours. The problem comes in with recording.
When I'm doing a normal broadcast, I'm recording it. The pending streams don't need to be recorded, but sometimes I'll forget to stop recording before I switch over, and around the 10 hour mark OBS will crash. It won't completely crash though, it will still send a video feed, it'll just be frozen on a single frame. At this point you have no choice but to exit, whether you exit with the exit button or exit by force-killing the application, you have a corrupted mp4 on your hands.
Right now my workaround is if I run into this is downloading the broadcast off twitch before it's deleted and concatenate the pieces together, but if we do longer broadcasts in the future, maybe for an event or something, I'm worried about OBS crashing during these situations.
I am posting the log, my last interaction with the stream was doing a test with CLR Browser at 23:19:16, and then I went to bed while the stream was running. I closed OBS at 06:30:52, but there's nothing in-between that suggests that OBS did something wrong.
ALSO there is red text in the bottom left when this happens, a CPU overload error or something like that. I'll try and get a screenshot of that.
TL;DR - OBS Crashes when Streaming/Recording for extended periods of time (10 hours usually) but NOT when just streaming.
