I've been using OBS with the Virtual Camera feeding into Zoom for a couple of years now, without significant issue. Recently (last ≈2 weeks), I've had a problem with my Virtual Camera image freezing in Zoom 45-55 minutes into a meeting. The preview in OBS is fine, but Zoom just shows a freeze frame. Switching to a real camera (which works fine) and back in Zoom doesn't help. Stopping and restarting the Virtual Camera in OBS or even restarting OBS doesn't help, either. The only thing that seems to fix it is quitting Zoom and restarting, which is less than ideal when I'm leading a meeting or teaching a class.
I know this is quite possibly a Zoom problem rather than an OBS problem, but Zoom's support is face-palmingly terrible, so I'm wondering if anyone else here has encountered this issue and found a solution. I checked my most recent OBS log file, and there are no entries even remotely close to the time the problem happened.
