Question / Help 2 Problems | Windows Capture is Black | Fps-drops

[h0lid4ys]

When I open a new Window Capture it is instandly completely black, even though the window-source i selected is green (eg twitchalert-box). I tried to fix this by myself but obviously found no solution. I got this 'bug' in the latest and oldest version, furthermore i can remember using window captures without problems months ago. At the moment I am using widows 10, I KNOW i didnt have this bug with windows 7, but i am not sure if i had this bug from the beginning since I use win10, so i am not sure if the operating system is the problem.
My second problem are the fps of my recordings. while i am recording gamecontent i have absolutely no fps-drops, but when i check the recording its lagging all the time. if i change the processor-priority to "higher than standart" or "high" I have fps-drops while i am recording(and of course in the video when i check it then). Didnt have this problems 1-2 months ago, didnt change hardware lately, hope you can help me =D

Greetings from Germany, hope you can help me out

You need to disable hardware acceleration in Chrome to be able to window capture it, but the proper solution in this case is to add TwitchAlerts as a browser source.

Regarding performance, please post a log - https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/problem-make-sure-to-post-a-log-and-or-crash-dump-howto.97/

Again, add the TwitchAlerts as a browser source. There's no reason to window capture it.

Regarding CS:GO performance, if you're running it without any type of frame rate limiter (i.e. vsync or fps_max set to a reasonable frame rate) then your GPU is probably being maxed out and causing the issue.

Just downloaded the clr plugin, now i can use the alertbox(tested it) :3, ty you brought me so far :^)
And yeah seems like my fear came true my GPU is to bad, cuz my cpu is like just 45% (MAX usually 20-30% when i am recording) and yeah... just wonder why i dont have any framedrops ingame while i am recording and why i never had this issue before. Whatever just recording and livestreaming for fun and as long my livestreams are ok, everything is ok.
Do you think fps_max set to 60(or any other framerate) would help? I'll try out.

Sorry for my bad english, and thank you very much for helping out a nub like me :3

Setting fps_max to 60 should work just fine. The default is 300 which is probably more than your GPU can manage.
