Hi! I've been using OBS since 2019, ran through no issues whatsoever this whole entire time when streaming on Twitch or recording content. Spot on stuff, you know the deal, yada yada
Recently i've gotten into Minecraft Speedrunning, and one of the formalities of it is that you must record your game AND any other instances (games running in the background generating worlds) at all times, for verification purposes. This all worked fine and all, up until 2-3 days ago, when anytime i'd start recording, OBS would unexpectedly CLOSE, (not crash) between the 10 minute and 15 minute mark. I do NOT know why.
I know this isn't a crash because i have one of the recordings encoded as mp4, not MKV, and if it were to crash, said output file would be corrupted, but weirdly enough, it runs just fine (up until the 14ish minute mark in which it closes)
For info:
I'm running this on a separate, barebones scene with just game captures and nested instances.
I am running OBS 27.2.3 (I cannot update as i still fear the incompatibility issues that stem from going to 28.x
For specs, my CPU's an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12 core, GPU's an RTX 2080 Super and i've got 128GB of RAM
Only plugins/scripts i have installed are obs-websockets, Move Transitions, and Source Record, as they're essential to content-making
I've tried different things for control:
• Record runs without Source Record, still closed
• Recorded in a different, much more complex scene collection i used for content making (on one instance only), which didn't close at all for 30-ish minutes onwards
• Recorded on a different drive, still closed
• Restarted PC, still closed after 10-15 mins of recording
There are NO crash reports in my folder that date to 2022 as it seems OBS isn't crashing, merely closing, but the log files themselves don't say much either. I've attached a few of them there, no clue if that helps.
These "random closes" first occured to me Tuesday, and i tried my best to fix that (to no avail), so i shutdown my pc, left for a good hour and came back and they still happened. I called it an early night, but the next morning i could record speedruns fine? I had a 4 hour 50 min recording that didn't crash one bit. Now it's thursday, and the issues pervail. I don't get it.
If anyone has any idea what could cause this issue beyond the usual "update your drivers update your OBS update your windows", i'd appreciate it a lot.
Thanks
