I've got all my settings perfect on my PC at home; I was able to capture the desktop and crop it around my Pandora gadget (yeah I still use gadgets, sue me.) But I'm out of town and I'm a) finding it impossible to view a window capture WITHOUT layered windows, including OBS, and b) I can no longer capture the desktop (with gadgets on; they don't appear) and also without layered windows atop it.
I see no options to isolate a window as a source. The only option that allows the capture source to appear while minimized AND without displaying windows atop it is Browser Source but I ... don't know if that source can be used to capture an open program. Maybe I'm just missing something but my brain is fried and I cannot for the life of me find anything helpful. So I'm asking here. Do I have a bad version? I'm using OBS Studio + Browser Source 0.14.2 -- OBS Classic doesn't display or stream anything due to the limitations of my laptop (for some reason.) It brings up the DirectX 10 error (even though I have DirectX 11 installed and functional.)
So if anyone can help me set this up in a way that won't constantly have open windows also displayed over any given source, that would be amazing. I'm stuck in a hospital for at least the next month or so because of a sick family member, and "the show must go on" so they say. I need to get back to work. I gotta start streaming my art again. Answering questions, etc.
Thanks.
