Question / Help Cannot get video to capture on Borderlands 2, only audio

Hi all. I am doing a series of no commentary quick play-throughs on some games and I just finished doing Skyrim Special Edition and OBS worked perfectly. However, now I'm trying to do Borderlands 2 and nothing I can do works. Yes I've searched the internet and here, and yes I've done all the tricks mentioned; run as admin, capture display/specific window (tried both), use and not use anti-cheat compatibility hook and etc just to name a few. What I get audio but no video. So, has anyone else been able to successfully capture Borderlands 2? I find it strange that Skyrim SE works perfectly but not Borderlands 2.

System specs are attached as is the recording log. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I wanted to update the topic with the fact that I just ran a test on the original Borderlands (also on steam) and it captured perfectly so my issue seems to be isolated to just Borderlands 2. Seeing as BL2 is my favorite game its the most important for me to get working.

Almost 5 months later and I still cannot get it working. I've now recorded Skyrim and Fallout 4 from Steam successfully along with the original Borderlands so it's something specific about Borderlands 2. I really wish the developers would respond. Also, since Borderlands The Presequel uses pretty much the same engine as Borderlands 2 I suspect that one will also give me issues.

So, funny story. Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel works flawlessly. So this problem is solely a Borderlands 2 problem. So, how does one fix it? If I record in windowed mode can I just have the video and not the border/menu bar? Assuming it will work windowed.

Well, I finally found out a way to get it to work. I did the following, screenshots included for reference.

Fullscreen Windowed mode
Uncheck "Capture 3rd party overlays"
Specific window
Window title must match
