As long as I have either firefox or google chrome closed there's no problems with Screen Capture streaming my main monitor but as soon as I open on it starts to leave a trail of my mouse cursor. If I had the browser open before the stream there's just a black screen. If its after I've started the stream then on the mouse cursor trail appears.

So i just got the program myself, and as it would seem i am having the seem problem. I've used alot of streaming programs in my days and i figured out what it is. It's not us from what it would seem but OBS itself. I don't know why it doesn't work with an internet browser, but as long as you have one opened it will (from what it seems) no matter what black screen/ mouse trail. So in other words you have to rely on the OBS program itself (or from what region you are showing through the program) is streaming fine. I don't know if Duo screening has the same problem, but if you are unsure if your stream is working or looking okay, ask friend use a different computer (sadly) or be a gambler and hope its working fine. Hope this helps you out explain the problem from what I'm exping. good luck streaming!

I actually don't know what's causing this currently. I am aware that people have this happening for some reason but I've never experienced it before myself, so I can't directly figure out what it is. Could I see a screenshot of this again?

It thinks OBS is trying to steal information from your browser (lol) and blocks it.
