I am using Ubuntu 22.04 and OBS Studio and it runs almost perfectly, I can record for hours and It won't crash while I'm recording.
The only issue comes when I pause the recording, I leave the computer to go to eat, or do something else and then when I come back OBS Studio is still opened but minimized, when I try to maximize it the program is closed instantly (Sometimes it is closed when I come back and it is not minimized).
I am using OBS 28.0.3
I have never received any error message, OBS always shuts down silently without letting me know what happened.
This is my last Logfile:
