I'm not my main PC to post a log right now but maybe someone can help me without one. I have recently started streaming and have run into an odd issue. I have a Elgato HD60 Pro and have no problem when streaming/recording console games from it but when I try to stream/record a PC game I have a problem. When I try to set a source as display capture I get a black screen or maybe 1-2 FPS but if I use window capture it works perfectly but has an odd border. I have change every setting I can think of watch many tutorial videos but can't figure it out. I have switched to OBS studio instead of classic but that hasn't helped. Thanks in advance.

Trying to Stream/Record Overwatch. Running game on ultra setting but the resolution is 1080. The thing is it works fine if I use window capture but not display capture and I don't know why. Forgot to mention that the audio records perfectly, it is only the video that is frozen while the audio continues. The video will only updated very 10-20 seconds.
