Why Does the VLC Media Source Go Black Screen After a Few Hours?

I have at least 48 hours of playlist in VLC loaded into VLC Media Source, but every few hours, I find OBS broadcasting a black screen and no audio. Sometimes it will go as long as a day before this happens. But today just 2 hours later, after loading the playlist again, it's transmitting black screen.
A couple years ago, I installed Advanced scene switcher and was using some Macros to detect black screen and load next playlist. It seemed to work all last year, but I updated OBS and Advanced Scene Switcher, and now I'm getting frequent dead air/black screens.
Is there are RELIABLE video source for OBS that can do long playlists?
Alternatively, I could trying and find a STABLE version of OBS that I ran last year and just revert.
