Recently I've been trying to Stream Fortnite, but the game capture doesn't work all I see is a black screen I've tried adjusting the settings multiple times and it has only ever worked once ( and never again). I cant use screen capture or my stream will look like a slide show. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't work and I'm running out of idea's can anyone help me.

You can't game capture the league of legends lobby application, as it is basically a web browser. You must window capture it.

Game capturing the actual match, you need to make sure OBS is running on the high performance gpu.

My problem isn’t league of legends I was just testing to see if the game capture would work on the client, but it isn’t capturing any of my full screen applications such as fortnite or league of legends (when I’m in game)

Game capture won't work on your actual games until you follow the laptop troubleshooting guide I linked in my previous post.

Thank you so much, it finally worked. Was the problem my GPU not being strong enough?

The problem was that OBS was running on one GPU while the game was running on the other.

I see but I just tested streaming league of legends (ingame) and now I'm getting a black screen what could be the problem now?
