Stream stops on twitch but OBS still shows live

[zachdude]

Greetings OBS wizards,

I've made the switch to OBS and been able to stream for about an hour and it seems like sometime around that the stream stops or is blocked possibly?

OBS still shows the status as green and streaming though. Then when I close the program and try to open it again, it says its still running. Sure enough the last session is still up in the task manager. Looking for help and direction into fixing this. Log file attached. Thanks!

from start to end nonestop bitrate issues
i will not say thats this is the major reason but 9/10 times you close OBS and it still remain as task
the hardware encoder frozen by encoding issues (to less memory/no power avaible...)
a nonestop bitrate change (encoding setting change) creates more spaces for that kind of errors
a bitrate change in the wrong moment for the GPU can kill it
