So a month or two ago, I switch to a new laptop I just bought instead of the desktop I was using. I had an issue when I first got it that I couldn't capture any games. This was simply due to the fact the games were running on the intel card in the laptop instead of the nvidia card that the games were running on. Simple fix was simply to tell the nvidia display properties to force obs to open with the nvidia card. Problem solved.
Well, recently, I've had the need to screen record the desktop. It starts to display the desktop being captured and everything is fine for the first few seconds most the time. After that it crashes. Sometimes it crashes instantly on trying to capture the desktop. I'm fairly certain this is the same issue where the program is trying to capture the intel run desktop from the nvidia run program. This is using Windows 8.1 (and the issue was there in windows 8.0).
I don't remember if it gave a specific error code, but there was a crash box that popped up. I'll do it again tonight and see if it crashes, and if it does, get a screenshot. I know I should have all this before submitting the bug report, but still... I thought you should know about it.
