Alright so I've been trying to record / stream this game named Dizzel for about a week now. It's a free to play game on Steam and essentially it works by opening a window for you while you're in lobby and moving into a "full screen" when you're in a match. I've tried setting the lobby window to be selected in window capture but it only capture the lobby window as I figured, and if I tab out during a match I cannot find that window as an option. I've tried monitor capture and when I go into a match it leaves me recording a black screen with audio working fine. Unfortunately the first fix that comes to mind for this is to go into a windowed mode for when I'm in a match however there's no option for this on the game ( yet, since it's in early access ). Lastly I've tried game capture however the game doesn't show up in the list either and when I try to select it via the use of a hotkey it doesn't nothing, except for when I have anti-cheat compatibility enabled in which case it crashes my game after about 2-3 seconds ( which during said time is not showing the game in the preview on OBS ).

A friend of mine can Stream the game using the anti-cheat compatibility hotkey without his game crashing and he's running it the same way as I am, on Windows 8.1 like I am, ect.

All in all, I'd love to get this game working with OBS and if there's anything I can help you with by adding to the post, please feel free to ask me to add it and where I can find it. IE: Logs, ect.

Thanks.

Edit: Actually here's some logs of a couple of attempts trying to get the game to record, specifically trying through game capture.

Have you also tried running OBS as admin on top of the other things you've tried? Seems like it's getting access denied.

Also. if the game itself is crashing it usually means there's a conflicting program causing that to occur. (Cue copy & paste: ) These could be other capture programs, game mods and graphics mods (sweetfx in particular), graphics card utilities like msi afterburner or the EVGA 'K boost' feature (I think it's called), or programs that put in custom in-game overlays for their program, such as teamspeak/mumble overlays, or razer synapse overlay.

Otherwise there's not too much I can really do to help unfortunately, you'll most likely have to use your best judgement as to what to do -- there are occasionally some games that are just not agreeable with game capture, though I'm trying my best to make sure that every single game can work without issues eventually.

I've followed these following steps before running into the error.

1. Disabled and closed every single program with an overlay. Steam overlay is disabled but obviously Steam is still running for the game.

2. Ran Steam as administrator.

3. Launched Dizzel from Steam.

4. Launched OBS as administrator.

5. Enabled Preview Stream in OBS.

6. Clicked into Dizzel and hit my F11 key. ( My selected Key for Game Capture on OBS, I have tried other keys as well )

7. Dizzel stutters and stops working.

8. I cry for 20 minutes and try again until I've tried everything I believe could be causing an issue.
