Yes, heatsink on the SOC / CPU. I wasn't streaming from it this time, I was watching a stream from one of the other motion eye cameras. Was wanting to see if it lost Internet / WIFI. When it was running Motion Eye headless I never really knew if it just lost WIFI or totally locked up? Usually the status light was off, not on solid like this time. This time I had a monitor and keyboard hoked up running full Raspbian. Total lock up.
I swapped out the 3B+ for one of my other 3B's. Took one of my other Motion Eye setups apart and swapped just the Pi. Same case , same camera, same SD card the 3B+ was using. Put it in the same location too. Going to leave it running 24/7 and see what happens. I'm leaning towards it being an issue with the Micro SD card slot or card slot electronics.
I mulling over doing up a USB thumb drive and booting / running the 3B+ from that instead of an SD card. Just to see what happens. Not going to happen until tomorrow some time. A bit sore tonight and not in the mood to mess with it anymore. Have to go look up how to do it too, etc.
