Hi, I'm having a lot of trouble recording video with Photo Booth when using High Sierra. I used to be able to record video on Mavericks without a problem but with High Sierra my whole computer crashes after 6-30mins and requires a forced restart. This is after a fresh restart with no other apps running.
I've reset pram and had a snoop in activity monster and it seems that when the video is recording the kernel_task usage goes through the roof just before the crash.
I have over 700GB free on my startup and 22GB of ram. If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this issue it would be great. Thanks in advance.
