Suggestion regarding USB devices

Quick suggestion to add to OBS

I have a USB microphone, and happened a few times that I accidentally unplugged it. If that happens mid-stream, i need to stop and start the stream so OBS recognizes it again. This doesnt happen with other streaming applications, you can plug and unplug things and it will re-register it.

Would be nice to have that funcionality in OBS :)

This is a bug, yea. I just actually never wrote the code for it, and it expects it to always be connected currently

Ah great that you are aware, hope it can be fixed in the future :)

I assume this is also why a webcam will freeze if the settings are changed?

the webcam freeze when settings change is actually a different bug that I have yet to find the cause for
