Run out of RAM. Thus, Browser source crashed. RAM allocation is controlled by OS. Application running with higher permissions (administrator rights) can gain some advantages in memory allocation. You may try to simplify the scenes and close unused dock panes (if they are browser based) in attempt to reduce overall memory consumption.

I only have one browser-based source in my scene — the rest are just media files, like a short 4-second 1080p video. OBS was working perfectly with the exact same setup until I updated it this week. I don’t run anything heavy in the background while streaming — just the game and OBS, nothing else that would use a lot of memory.

A log file from the moment the crash occurred is also needed.

 

[DJSNKZ]

Also forgot to mention this, my voice automatically changes to the voice mod like the helium one while the lag and slow happening. I don't have any voice mod installed on my PC.

I guess it's the crash report log you asked for. I am not good at these.

 

[PaiSand]

I said Log File, not crash report.
please, look inside Help menu. You'll find how to access the folder where it's stored in there.

 

[DJSNKZ]

Sorry, is this one?

 

[PaiSand]

Update or remove the multi-rtmp plugin. Restart OBS and test.
The security suit you use may cause issues too. Try disabling it or uninstall it. The antivirus/firewall that comes with Windows is more than enough, beside that is one of the best security suites and probably the less intrusive.
I use Malwarebytes browser extension and blocks the github page of this plugin, so be careful with it. It may be a false positive.

You have a good GPU, so you may want to enable browser acceleration via GPU.

To know more it's needed a log file with an actual active session (recording/streaming) in it.

I only have one browser-based source in my scene...

...
14:52:46.579: [obs-browser: 'Starting soon'] Webpage has crashed unexpectedly! Reason: 'STATUS_BREAKPOINT'

So, this it still same error. You may try to remove the "Starting soon" source. Or you may try to remove the cache of this Browser source (there is "Refresh" button in the properties of the source). Or you may try to remove whole browser source local settings folder, located in: %APPDATA%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser, cookies, GPU cache and everything else will be recreated on next run of the program.

Browser may not get enough memory if your system don't uses page file or system drive free space is very limited (the page file can't grow more). Browsers can be greedy on RAM, so system acts in advance. There are many possibilities. Did you monitored RAM consumption with the Task Manager during the stream event?

Why it worked before? I don't know. Try remove old cache as said above.

As for the lags, you definitely need to make the streaming session and if lag is present - quit OBS and then attach the log from this session (find it by time and date) to your post here, on the forum. OBS session logs lies in: %APPDATA%\obs-studio\logs

what you're seeing in OBS is the effect, the cause would be happening outside of OBS if your entire PC is slowing down. my first guess would be the ESET security software you have installed, I would uninstall it completely and test again.

 

[rockbottom]

2nd that ESET crap. I was given a work PC with ESET installed. It slowed everything down to a craw at times. Always running in the background meddling somewhere....

I understand you, but this is the part I don't get. I've been using that antivirus for years, and OBS hasn't had any issues, since the recent update on OBS that started showing this issue.

I already deleted the entire scene, including the browser, and I will send the log file if it lags again while streaming.
