Question / Help Help with window capture/game capture

[Moebarrington]

I am new to streaming and software such as OBS, and after reading through guides on how to set it up,I am confident that I have done so correctly. However, only monitor capture is working correctly, and window/game capture are displaying black screens. I am using a laptop, and before you tell me "It's your graphics card", no, it is not. I have set up OBS to use my dedicated NVIDIA graphics card. After analyzing my current log, it tells me two things. 1: "You have multiple graphics cards" (which I already know and have fixed), and 2: there is a hook conflict. This is confusing to me because I do not have any kind of FPS monitor or overlay programs, such as FRAPS. Here is my log, any help would be appreciated. https://gist.github.com/fa786ec246905d6699fc

On multi-gpu laptops the desktop (windows etc) is rendered on the integrated graphics in most cases, only the games (and thus OBS) run on the Nvidia gpu to get the best performance. To capture the games at the best possible performance you will want OBS to run on the Nvidia (as you currently do), but in this case you will have to use the "Compatibility Mode" checkbox in your window capture properties for a window capture to work. Monitor capture will probably not work at all but you can try compatibility there too.
