Question / Help Black screen of death

Many people are having a problem while trying to record or stream games in full screen. However, everyone's problems are different so I thought I would share my own. Certain games such as CSGO and boarderlands 2, are unable to be recorded with game capture in full screen. If I preview my stream, I notice that the audio is being recorded however the game play is just a black screen. However, I am able to capture some games in full screen such as L4D2 or Magicite.

Note: I don't have Razer Synapse and I also understand that Full screen windowed mode can be recorded.

I am wondering why certain games cannot be recorded in full screen though and if it is possible to fix this.

It is also very important to mention that if I open the game capture properties while I record, I am able to capture my game in full screen.

post your logfile. I'm guessing you are using windowed capture or monitor capture?
