Question / Help Black screen with game capture - NOT LAPTOP

[HoLyHeRo]

Hello,

I used OBS before when I had no problems with any game captures. I recently had to reinstall my computer and along with it I had to reinstall OBS.

When I wanted to stream a game (The Binding Of Isaac), I first tried it adding a global source with the game capture of The Binding Of Isaac. Even when adding a game capture on the screen without the global source I have this problem. But when I preview my stream I still see a black screen.

If I record the inner window, then it works. But I just want to use the game capture so I can play my games fullscreen and still record them well.

What am I doing wrong?

Below is my latest log

Last I heard, Game capture doesn't work with Binding of Isaac, since it's actually a Flash game. You have to capture it with Window capture, which means it has to be played in Windowed mode.

I just tried it with Dota 2 and now it works, I didn't knew this wouldn't work with flash games.

Thanks for your answer!
