So, I am streaming since 2020 and used several versions of OBS. Since I am using OBS 28 and above the streams sometimes crashes or drops to 0Kbps (twitchtest works perfectly on the same server at the same time). I have SAMMI to control my streams and use a lot of plugins to have special effects in my streams. Sometimes you can clearly see OBS crashes when an effect is beeing triggered - unfortunately I cant figure out whats causing it, because its always a different effect and also deactivating several effects, to see if it was especially that one effect, doesnt help. Ram Usage is a bit maxed out most of the time (16GB). I tried to optimize everything with webm files, unecessary files get deactivated. the funny thing is, that I managed to make obs never use more than 6 gb so I never go above 11 or 12gbs of ram and if I tell my chat to spam every meme its smooth and dont stutter or crashes. Its just random, sometimes even without activating anything. I know OBS isnt made for this kind of Streams and interactions and all these years I rly tried to make it as easy as possible for OBS to have all these scenes and sources but I cant figure out why its crashing so much now and also randomly dropping connection or just go down to 0kbps and stay connected. it appeared randomly that OBS now crashes about every hour when im live. If I stop the memes its totally fine and i cant figure out whats happening.
I am wondering how much scenes and sources OBS can handle? I have like 130 scenes, some with more than 10 sources and some with less. Everytime something gets activated, it also gets deactivated. I have 6 Main scenes for starting, brb, just chatting, gaming, retro scene, ending scene and a meme scene thats nested so if a meme gets activated it can be seen in every main scene. all other scenes are sub scenes that get nested in meme scene or different scenes. But they arent active all the time.
I would like to add a log file but they were to large because of an video decoding error of my cam (had to set it to 30fps and its gone). Today im collecting all the data again and post log and crash file afterwards
Steps I tried:

- https://obsproject.com/forum/thread...ing-too-long-to-encode-read-this-first.23334/
- Streaming to Testservers within OBS for several hours, several days and using all the channelpoints redemptions with effect (nothing happened to OBS)
- Disabling the effects on the 3rd Party side (worked out)
My next step is to increase the RAM and try to deactivate every single feature of my stream, step by step until the crashes are gone. But still. OBS dropping to 0 Kbps while still beeing connected to testservers and have a stable ethernet connections drives me crazy ..
