Hello there. I've been using OBS for a while now with no problems. Recently I found out that I can't capture my games anymore. I have tried everything I found on the internet (OBS Forum / Youtube) about the Black Screen with AMD GPU problem. As you can see from the pictures I am running both OBS and WarFrame on my GPU. QSVHelper is set on power saving because if I set it to High Performance OBS ends up with an error. I can't figure out whats the problem. Also compatability mode doesn't work either. My drivers are all up to date (GPU, CPU, DirectX etc.). Can anybody help me out?
I have AMD Radeon R7 M265 2.00GB and Intel Core i7 4700MQ 2.4GHz.
The pictures below are describing the problem.
Also here is the log: https://gist.github.com/86f97a6c67051fd56f61

As the laptop thread says, you need to use window capture with compatibility mode enabled in it's settings and run the game in windowed mode. You cannot use game capture on laptops with AMD's switchable graphics.

But I was able to stream just fine. I don't know what happened.
