Hi.
I would like to use OBS to record my gameplay but I cannot get it to work properly.
Every recording shows a black screen but it does record the game's audio.
I'm running OBS's 64 bit executable as admin and I've set game capture as a source (using the hotkey method).
I've tryed using the compatibility hook but it has made no difference.
Below you can find the settings I'm using.
Encoding:
Broadcast:
Video:
Advanced:
I've included a log aswell.
(The log states that the preset being used is llhq -whilst the above image shows that this should be hq-, this is because I set the preset to automatic to see if that might fix the issue, but sadly it did not.)
Any help regarding this matter would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
