Question / Help [DWM]: Monitor Capture??

I now have this option under game capture...

unlike using monitor capture, there is no impact from using aero vs. no aero, and can easily do 60fps with aero enabled.

my questions are, has anyone else had this option before and where/why/how did i get it?

note: the dwm capture lines start at 15:39:41 where it is capturing audio and not at the bottom where I capture BlackOps.exe

I know the screenshot doesn't really do anything, but just to give an idea

That list entry (DWM: Monitor Capture) is available in game capture Applications list only if the os is < win8 and if aero is enabled.
This "feature" is available since OBS 0.62b

Also, it should be listed at the bottom of the log if used. (no idea why the bottom part of the log [game capture log] is incomplete)
As a little explanation, there's nothing special regarding it, it's the same game capture, it just adds dwm.exe process to the list of potential applications that can be captured if the conditions depicted above are met.

Fail.. totally missed that, guess I should check the release notes more often, the thing is though, 0.62 was a while ago, and all the times I used Game capture I haven't seen it listed there before, maybe it was just change blindness...
