USB Webcam freezes after about 10 minutes

Hi all,

Looking to use OBS as presenting for work with my Mac mini and so bought a USB webcam (including integrated microphone) - however I notice the video feed freezes after about 10 minutes of use (though the audio is still fine). I think this is a system wide thing as it is also affecting FaceTime and Zoom on my Mac, not just OBS. I was wondering if anyone ran into similar issues and found a way to fix it? It seems to be a common problem from a quick google but I can't understand what anyone has already said about it on other forums (my computer skills are errrr not great). It works again if I unplug it and plug it back in again but this isn't very convenient as you can imagine

Many Thanks!
