Hello everyone! I've been using OBS Studio for a while and I have had this irritating problem of the program crashing on startup. Closing out and trying again has proved not to work so I need some assistance.

If I'm missing anything please let me know.

Actually, a little bit of both.
For example, if it doesn't crash immediately, it usually hangs when I press stop recording or streaming. But most of the time it crashes and comes with the the "oops! OBS has crashed!" Alert.
 
Why are you using two Elgato video capture sources in the same scene? Remove one.

I'm only using one Elgato souce in each scene and have double checked.

And have you tried JUST uninstalling the elgato software?

Just uninstalling it fixes the crashing issues, but as soon as I reinstall the Elgato software it continues crash. I only have the Elgato HD60 Pro so it's strange how even a fresh installation is causing conflicts.
 
Something wrong in your installation. None of my Elgato HD60 Pro boxes have multiple Elgato sources listed like that in my log files.
