Question / Help Display Capture going black when game starts

[MrSirViking]

So i was trying to use Display Capture. It was showing in obs no problem. Then i startet my game and obs display capture went black and in settings for the display it is just gray now. The other displays i have are showing fine in there, its just the one where i am running the game that goes wrong. Now it works no problem when i use game capture. But since i have to Alt + tab in this game a lot to do stuff on the desktop i would like people to be able to follow that too. So i would like Display Capture to work. Restarted OBS and the screen comes back, but then i start the game and the screen goes black again. Any ideas whats wrong?

Display capture cannot capture games running in fullscreen.

Laptop? W10? Then you need Game Capture source and Display Capture and maybe compatibility mode (it named differently in OBS Studio, just find the option that says about SLI/Crossfire etc.)

Finally, Please post a log with your issue! Here's how...

Its windows 10 pro on a desktop. And display capture can capture full screen games. Cause the thing is if i change one of my other screens to be main screen and choose screen capture and then start the game there is no problem. But my main monitor just dosent want to do it :)

No, display capture can't capture fullscreen games, only windowed or borderless. Either way use game capture for games.

Hmm... How you connected all this displays to your PC? Motherboard with multiply connectors? Just wondering.
