OBS Studio 24.0.3 Hotfix
Fixed a startup crash on the 32bit version of OBS
Fixed an issue where audio monitoring on Windows would have a bit of unintended latency introduced by 24.0.2
OBS Studio 24.0.2
As usual, if you would like to support our project, please check us out on Patreon or OpenCollective!
Changes
Hardware accelerated decoding on the media source is now disabled by default rather than enabled by default. Some users use a ridiculous number of media sources, and turning on hardware accelerated decoding for every single one of them could cause some stability issues.
When running OBS as administrator, games will now be much less likely to cause lag to the video of OBS (we will eventually get this improvement working without requiring administrator, currently this does not work unless OBS is running as administrator)
Fixed an issue where media keys on your keyboard could trigger video/audio to stop/start playing in browser sources
Fixed an issue where part of the OBS output would be green when using OBS from a VM
Fixed an issue where stingers could sometimes cut off prematurely before they were finished
Fixed a freeze that could happen when using NVENC and changing the bitrate while in use while lookahead was enabled
Fixed a bug where OBS could sometimes stop recording due to lack of disk space despite having plenty of disk space
Improved the playback accuracy of media sources and stingers (this was the same issue that caused stingers to sometimes play back a bit erratically)

Need Easy Option in OBS Studio to simply, play & Crossfade all saved M3U & M3U8 Video playlists?
Tried submitting this feedback on OBS /Github, but always fails to post, no reason given.
Great program with much potential indeed, like all the ongoing improvements.
Even with latest version update, checked thru FAQs, forum etc, have also downloaded latest VLC Player.
I realize this player is mostly for Gamers etc, but why still cannot get OBS Studio to simply, operate as a normal video player, Like most Music video clips lovers, just want a way, to simply play all my saved M3U & M3U8 Video playlists from my connected USB Drive on my Windows 10 64bit PC, with a constant crossfade transition effect, after play of each video?) or have video or Audio fade out transitions in between videos on playlist?
Suprisingly OBS , still cannot open any of my standard saved M3U & M3U8 Video playlists from my connected USB Drive. Any way to do or add this standard
Option and make more easier and user friendly in OBS? (Rated Online 2.7 out of 5 stars)

Rock solid so far for live camera streaming to a server over the Internet.
I was previously had to use Adobe products that required me to keep a copy of Windows but OBS has let me remove it completely without any loss of streaming functionality.

I don't know why but after the latest update from August, the recording process became unreliable as games and windows begin to crash, despite not having such an issue before.
