Black Screen for 7 Days to Die/Darkness Falls

I am trying to use OBS to capture my 7D2D/DF builds for posterity, but all I get is black screen using Game Capture. If I try to use Screen Capture, my OBS shows up in my display window, but the recording is all black. I can use Game Capture and record just fine for Guild Wars 2. I have played with a lot of Output settings following tutorials (or trying to) so I could have messed something up in my fiddling. Help please?

OK, hubby helped me find a work around. All good here. Thanks.

Of course, it's wonderful to have your husband by your side, but sometimes there are situations where we need to act on our own. If suddenly he is unavailable, here are a few solutions that may help.

First, make sure that you run OBS as an administrator. Also, disabling any overlays or screen overlays that might interfere with capture. Finally, check your game's graphics settings and make sure they are compatible with OBS.

You can also download the 7D2D Launcher at 7d2d.net, which makes it easy to play your favorite mods for 7 Days To Die. Anyway, good luck and all the best.
added here some additional info. Thanks!
