Hey,

since yesterday i cant stream WoW in Fullscreen anymore.

Facts:
- I get a black Screen on preview
- When i start the stream, i can see the game live on twitch BUT without any Pictures/text ive bound in.

Since yesterday ive really NOTHING changed on OBS or my Computer.
 
Re: Since TODAY i got black screen!

I dunno the english version, but the I try to translate it.
"Doesn't work!" is not a valid error description.
Means: You're not saying anything usefull. I bet not even the devs can help you this way. Noone can see your screen, PC or your mind. ;)

But let's be a bit more productive: Did you change anything?

Re: Since TODAY i got black screen!

What game are you capturing? Is it running in fullscreen mode? Are you doing a lot of alt+tabbing while playing it?

It doesnt matter which game or programm i want to stream. I get the blackscreen everytime when im clicking "show preview" or "start stream ".
 
Re: Since TODAY i got black screen!

If it only happened today then something changed on your end. If I were you I'd probably try restarting the computer as well.

Ive restartet the Computer around 4 times, reinstallted OBS and used System backup. Nothing helps.
No developers here who can help? Ive posted three logfiles.
 
Re: Since TODAY i got black screen!

I am the author of the program. Your logs don't actually report any problems, so based upon that fact and what I've heard in the past, it seems like something is interfering with game capture if you want my guess based upon experience. Overlay applications such as teamspeak/mumble overlays, graphics modification applications such as sweetfx, game-specific graphics mods, or other capture applications such as fraps/etc. Not entirely sure what to suggest because of the lack of actual errors in the log file.

You could always just try using window capture and run the game in a borderless/windowed mode if it still continues to have a problem, but as a general rule of thumb, if you suddenly start getting a problem without changing OBS versions or settings, then it most likely means something else changed on the computer, whether you might want to hear that or not, whether you might be aware of it or not.

Re: Since TODAY i got black screen!

When you reinstalled OBS, did you make sure to delete your %appdata%\OBS folder as well?
