Hey, new linux convert trying to set up my stuff for streaming again and running into a "fun" issue. Figured I'd hop on here and ask the community to see if I'm just ignorant or if its just broken. No matter what is open, game capture cannot find any source to capture. Image provided below ( Browser on same monitor, and Palworld is currently open on my other monitor)

The crux of this is I also have a PNG-tuber software I use that I don't have a good replacement for that also relies on game capture (all others dont detect my microphone?). Cropping game windows with screen capture is a headache and that software just straight doesn't work with screen capturing a window. Does anyone have any suggestions or fixes for this?

That game capture is a 3rd party plugin and you need to start the game in a specific way. Check that plugin's documentation.

I've not installed any plugins to my knowledge. i Got the software straight from OBS no modifications. Unless it comes pre-packed with them and the Game Capture built in is third party?

If you're referring to the "Game Capture 2" then that was me going insane and just ended up making a second one in a different scene.

You did install from OBS or Bazzite? I don't know what Bazzite packages, but a "Game Capture" is not part of OBS for Linux. Screen/Window capture is.
