Not quite sure what's going on. Does it seemingly randomly.

I have quite a few logs, not sure if there is a batch upload feature. Can upload more if needed. I'm uploading one that looks like it was ended on a crash, based on the time stamps.

check %appdata%\obs-studio\crashes folder is there any log? Post it too.
Yep, Lots of them! Here you go. I have way more, but hopefully this gets us started?

Do you change the browser source settings often?

Main thing I do is update the URLs of the browser sources that I have associated with my YTGaming chat since the URL of my chat is different each time I stream since YT events are used. With the sources all being global I just have a scene with all my chats that I go and update before the stream.

I use the Browser source for my chat so I can do some fun CSS with it and have it saved.

I do this before streaming. I never touch the browser sources after that.

I do recall OBS crashing on two occasions where a twitchalert came through. Most other times though it just seems random. I almost wonder if it's due to having the chat running through the BrowserSource.

Not sure if others are as clueless as me, but just for troubleshooting, I went and switched back to the original OBS v0.657b, and copied over just about everything I was doing in OBS Studio (including making everything global like OBS Studio automatically does), plus I added somethings like image slideshows . I didn't have any problems the entire night with v0.657b. With OBS Studio I was crashing 2 to 3 times a night mid stream. My streams are 4 hours long.

Anyhoo, hope someone can figure it out!

EDIT: Oh, and another heads up. Sometimes when studio was crashing and I'd restart it, OBS Studio wasn't able to recognize my webcam (C920) until I went ahead and unplugged my webcam and replugged it back in. Sometimes OBS Studio wouldn't even start up until I went ahead and reset my webcam. This also affected my Avermedia C985, for some reason OBS Studio wouldn't recognize the device even when I'd disable it and renable it, I had to restart my computer since it didn't have an easy unplug and replug solution since it's internal.
