Question / Help Display Capture Black Screen

Anyone know why OBS sometimes kills your Display Capture source and all you can see is a black screen? Let me explain, so I have 2 sources, Display Capture (which is attached to monitor 1) and another source capturing a specific window (can be fullscreen or not depending on how I run this program).

The window source seems to work, but when I toggle my program to full screen and back just once, then when I make the specific window source invisible, the Display Capture source is black. The only way to get it back is to restart OBS. And yes, I'm running as Admin.

BTW, I'm using an NVIDIA graphics card with dual monitors.

Anyone have any thoughts on how to fix this?

I had a similar problem, you should try disabling fullscreen optimizations on the program that's giving you a blank screen.

Same issue here. Desktop, NVIDIA, multiple monitors, multiple display captures. Screen goes black after tabbing or closing a full screen application. Wasn't an issue until a couple months ago. Maybe an NVIDIA driver issue?
