Sony ZV 1 sometimes not showing or freezing in OBS after starting OBS

[JensMorgenegg]

Hi I have a big issue.
Sometimes when I open OBS my Sony ZV1 isn't showing at all or like at all or just so randomly. Or sometimes it just frezzes.
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or any setting is wrong. I really start to hate this camera.

I have the Sony ZV1 connected to my PC via Elgato cam link 4K and it also runs on a false battery so it doesn0t overheat and don't run out of battery.

Maybe someone has a solution or had the same problem.

I have the same setup and the same annoying problem. I think it is not a Problem of the Camera or OBS but the Camlink.
To get the video back working I have to unplug the camlink stick and put it back is the USB port.
Elgato has a page in their help section that addresses the problem, so it seems to happen to many people. https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041899471-Cam-Link-4K-Troubleshooting-Frozen-Video
But none of the steps was actually helpful in my case.
