Seems that doing a direct window capture on either Chrome or Edge simply does not work anymore. I used to be able to capture Chrome fine but now if i try doing a WC on it it's just a black screen. As for Edge, I don't use it but to see if it worked i tried it and it's the same result. Only Firefox/Waterfox can be captured that way. A monitor capture on either works fine btw. Unfortunately, I can't say for sure if it's the Windows 10 Anniversary update or the Radeon update (16.9.1 to 16.9.2) that broke it.
But considering this other thread: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/cant-use-obs-studio-after-update-to-win10.54971/
I'm gonna guess it's Windows.
As for the log file, it's useless. There is nothing indicative as to when I launch the captures if it works properly or not.
