Description

@DJ-PD

Platform

Operating system and version: Windows 10 v1909 64bit
OBS Studio version: v25.0.8

Expected Behavior

Start Streaming = start the stream (it's ok and works today)
Stop Streaming = stop the stream (it's ok and works today)
Start Streaming again after a stop = shall start the stream as task 1 as with OBS Studio v24.0.3

Current Behavior

Start Streaming = start the stream (it's ok and works today)
Stop Streaming = stop the stream (it's ok and works today)
Start Streaming again after a stop = stream doesn't start, control button "Start/Stop Streaming" is totally grey and I can't do any thing with this button. Exit OBS studio works but the program still runs in background and process task need to be ended via Windows task manager. Thereafter can OBS Studio be started and used again until next stop.

OBS Studio v25.0.8 part of log file when issue occur

Steps to Reproduce

Start Streaming = start the stream
Stop Streaming = stop the stream
Start Streaming again after a stop = stream doesn't start

Additional information

Tested both v24.0.3 and v25.0.8 / uninstalled and installed 3 times and totally left the server side.
Version 24.0.3 works as a charm every time but 25.0.8 fails on the second "Start Streaming" all the time.
I refer to closed case #2849 and ask for a investigation before closing this new support ticket.
