Stream Dropping to 0 Bitrate with Red Indicator - OBS Shows Stream Still Active

[itsobviousnesplint]

Hello everyone,

I'm experiencing an issue with OBS where my stream bitrate drops to 0, and the indicator turns red, but OBS still shows the stream as active. This problem happens once per stream, usually during a 10-hour session.

My internet connection seems to be fine because other applications maintain their connection without any interruptions, even when this issue occurs.

I've already tried all the advice from the pinned topics on the forum, but the issue persists. Has anyone else encountered this, or does anyone have any additional troubleshooting steps I could try?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
