Recording Stops

[Patmc]

OBS stops streaming and recording at about 43 minutes. Nothing shows on screen that streaming or recording has ceased. Any help is appreciated.

The log file you uploaded has no recording or streaming session in it. Please upload the log file with the issue in it.
Confirm you didn't accidentally activate a timer that stops recording and streaming. Look inside tools menu.

You realize no one has access to your computer but you, right?

Yes. ?

I have checked Tools without finding any timers in use. This is last Sunday's log file. Can anyone advise why our service stops recording? Thanks in advance.

Rendering lag is GPU overload, in your case iGPU overload. Load reduction is in order.

As far as the recording goes, there is no recording. Encoding lag was over 99%. Your best bet with no dedicated GPU is to only encode a single stream. So if you must stream, set your recording to use the stream encoder. If you're only recording, set the encoder normally.

Bad cable or something else wrong with your LAN
10:01:01.802: [rtmp stream: 'adv_stream'] Interface: Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller (ethernet, 100↓/100↑ mbps)

Ditch the multi-RTMP & Atium plugins, not enough meat on the bone to be running either of them.

I read you say that there was no recording. I uploaded the file to YouTube after the service. The service lasted another 10 minutes after the recording stopped. There was a recording on a thumbdrive.

Yep, 99.1% encoding lag, there is no recording worth looking at. Delete to the recycle bin.....
