Hello guys. I've just formated my PC and installed OBS. But the thing is, now I can't capture anything in my game capture option, but I can with my Display Capture and Window capture. Whenreading the log, I see that OBS tries to read the program that I am trying to capture but then it stops, then after like a frationc of second later tries againd just to stop a second time. What should I do? I have directx installed and all the other prerequisites.

Here is my log: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/972c488f5db144d239ce71c032512762

Overwatch and bo3 is just fine. So not all games as I just streamed.

If you don't know the answer, sometimes it's best to just not post and misinformation can be worse than no information.

You are trying to game capture the LoL lobby/client, which cannot be game captured as it is not technically a game. Blame Riot, they built it as a web browser, not an actual game client. You need to use window capture for that, but game capture will work just fine for the game itself.

Actually this is my fault. I've tried to capture many times many different games and in the hurry I uploaded the wrong one, I will update the text with new changelogs. Can I count with your help?
