CasparCG 2.4.1 LTS system overhead causes Server to Crash

General

Hello Everyone and Happy new year.

I recently noticed that in CasparCG 2.4.1 LTS when I try a configuration that is more than what my Machine can handle, after a couple of minutes Server crashes. While in Server 2.3.3 LTS with the exact same configuration Server keeps dropping frames/stuttering but never crashes or stops.

Could be an issue with my machine but would like to know if anyone else noticed similar behaviour.

I also noticed that when doing a playout in 2.4.1 with screen consumer and then add NDI output which causes the overhead to my system, NDI only stutters and screen consumer plays smoothly, after a while server crashes. But in 2.3.3 when I add the NDI output both NDI & screen consumer stutter/drop frames without causing the server to crash.

Wish all the best to everyone for 2025.

Happy New Year everyone! I also am getting a memory leak/crash on 2.4.2 Stable when I add an NDI Consumer. I’m using a decklink input & keying NDI sources on top, which is stable when sent to Decklink consumers. Once I add an NDI consumer, however, the memory creeps up over a period of 3-5 minutes until it’s pegged at 99% and then becomes unresponsive.
