So just a few days ago everything was working fine, i stopped streaming for about a week, and then I try to start streaming again, and the game capture wont capture any games, I tried to get it to capture multiple games, no black screen or anything, literally nothing will show up, but when i click on game capture in the scene, all it shows is a little red circle in the top left of the obs screen, so therefor I fit the game capture to the screen and still nothing will show up. Ive also tried clicking in the game like you usually have to do to get it to show up, but that didnt work either.

I am also having problems with my Logitech C920 Web cam i recently got it so its fairly new, it was working aswell just a few days ago, when i add a video capture device and select my cam and activate it, the camera lights up, but it only shows a green screen, but when I go to the logitech application on my desktop and launch it to see if its working there, I preview it on the logitech app, and it works perfectly fine, these problems just started happening recently, and it has prevented me from recording and streaming, so if anyone out there has a solution to this please let me know! Thank you.

Hi, I'm having the same issue regarding the webcam. It's a Logitech C270 and it works fine everywhere except for OBS. What can I do to fix it? I got these logs:

Hey Harold-

I'm having the exact same issue and I do use Bitdefender. I feel like you might know something... please share

Bitdefender blocks OBS from being able to access cameras. It has webcam "protection" functions.
