Hello I'm using OBS to broadcast to twitch.tv. Everything works so far, but when I go to select a window (via sources) and click ok. It chooses a different window.
The application (PCSX2 (which I'm using with my LEGALLY obtained bios, and LEGALLY obtained games)) I use has 3 different windows: one main window to adjust settings, one window that logs activity, and then finally (the window I'm trying to capture) the render window. The problem is that the numbers in the bar change (FPS, EE, and GS) and I think that is what is confusing OBS. There are no settings to turn them off either. So what can I do?
I also read this, and figured the changing numbers were what was causing the issue:
Jim: Window capture does have some issue with browser windows, especially when the window names change, or new windows for the browser pop up; it has a tendency to confuse windows, though it generally should try to the right one and not lose it's "connection" with it so to speak. Currently what I ask people to do when they absolutely have to capture a browser window is do it with a separate browser than the main one they usually use to browse with.
For example if you usually use firefox to browse capture a chrome window for the chat to avoid browsing window conflicts. Somewhat of a pain admittedly but it's a work around for the time being as my current list of things to do is rather large. (Original)
Unfortunately for me there are not alternatives.
Unless anyone knows any other solution, I suppose I could just use another program and feed the video through that (possibly). Thanks for reading :).
