Question / Help 2 graphic cards

[Alaran]

Hi all,
I have a problem i suppose due to my graphic cards.
In fact my laptop is composed by 2 graphics cards : intel for low process and NVIDIA when computer ask more power (i guess).
So my problem is a black screen when i want stream games.
I try setting OBS with the Intel, and it works only when i show my desk or something like this. (black screen for games)
And when i try Set the NVIDIA i have black screen for all applications....
Thanks for your help‏

ps: log analyser tell me to configurate nvidia for obs but pilot " NVIDIA GEForce experience" is like a beta and i don't find anything to set...

You unfortunately did not set up the laptop correctly - you must select the top adapter (regardless of whether it says intel or not) in the video adapter drop down in video settings. Then, you must use nvidia control panel to set OBS.exe to use the nvidia (or just use the global tab in 3d settings in nvidia control panel and force all programs to use the nvidia)

Thanks for your answer, but you speak about obs setting or computer setting?
and how can i access to the "nvidia control panel" ? i got a pilot called " nvidia geforce experience".

The adapter must be set to the top adapter in OBS' video settings. Your Nvidia control panel is accessible via windows control panel.

excuse me for waste your time^^ but in my nvidia control panel i have only 3d settings... i don't know why but only 3 settings in the channel 3d . If you know why thanks for answer ;)

Perhaps you need up update your drivers?

You're totally not wasting my time, don't worry -- 3D settings is correct. When you click 3D settings, it should have stuff pop up on the right. The configuration stuff on the right is where you need to configure it, although I don't have any images to show as an example right now.

Okay :) , then i try to give you a screen. you can show points i need to change easier.* ( sorry for screen in french :) )

I think i find what you speak about , but OBS is not in the list i can change...

 

[Krazy]

Yes, click "Add" to add a program to the list yourself. Make sure to add both 32 and 64 bit OBS. 32 bit OBS is located in Program Files (x86)\OBS and 64 bit is located in Program Files\OBS

 

[Alaran]

Oh no.... I thought you give me the thing that will change all... but no there is still black screen : even when i right clic on the desk icon to use NVIDIA... I have add 32 and 64 bits.
Any idea about what makes it fail^^?

That particular log file still says you have the bottom adapter (Adapter 2) selected in OBS' video settings. You need to go to Settings -> Video -> Video Adapter -> top item in the list
