Question / Help Black Screen - The Forest

[SlamminDT]

Hey all

I usually stream Fallout, Skyrim and BF4 successfully on the same settings for all. I've recently purchased The Forest. However when I try to stream it I get a black screen with just audio.

Things I've tried

• Window Capture
• Monitor Capture
• Game Capture
• Adjusting resolution from 1080 to 720
• Lowered the encoding
• Lowered quality balance

I've attached my most recent log. I hope someone can assist.

Thanks :)

I am having the same problem as you Slammin but on Arma 3. https://gist.github.com/31a37711354d8540bb1e

Bump.

I managed to fix the issue. It seems I have to do this all the time now just for it to work.

Whilst the stream is running and you have the black screen. Right click on "Game Capture" and go to properties. Then click on "Refresh" at the top right of the window, and then click ok. This should then return the screen and fix the issue.

I have tried this multiple times and it still wont work so I have no Idea what is going on but in one of my logs it said windows 8 not supported
