Question / Help Fullscreen Gameplay Recording Black Screen

[LunarWolfPiggy]

Hello everyone,

I know that this is probably talked about somewhere else, but I'm having trouble getting the Game Capture to work when the game is in full-screen mode. So far, this is affecting my Steam games (Mass Effect, Civ V, Fallout New Vegas) and my Origin games (Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age 2). The only game I've been able to get working is Minecraft, which I always play in windowed mode, so that's why it works. Mass Effect does work in windowed mode as well if I use Monitor Capture, but it loses the look I'd like to use on my YouTube videos.

I have looked at https://obsproject.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5965 ("
Laptop? Black screen when capturing? Read here first."), but I haven't been able to get compatibility mode to work properly. From what I've seen, there's only the one option for the Video Adapter in the Video Settings menu.

Specs:
Manufacturer: Samsung
Model: NP355V5C
OS: Windows 8.1
Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 7660G
Processor: AMD 110-4600M APU
RAM: 8GB (don't think this will be too important, but just in case)

Please let me know if there is anything else I should offer in regards to information needed to fix my issue.

Thank you for all of your help,
LWP

Bumping for visibility.

AMDs, especially APUs, don't particularly apply to the common laptop issues. I don't think they support this type of capturing. You might not be able to record fullscreen games with that particular type of computer. You may have to run it borderless/windowed and use "compatibility mode"

Darn. =( I was hoping it would work, but at least now I have an answer. Thank you Jim. =)
