Question / Help How do I record only one window or tab?

[kifferthedog]

I want to stream to Twitch without having to disrupt the stream to check something in a different window. Is it at all possible to do that?

could you clarify maybe? are you using game capture or window capture? do you only have 1 monitor?

One monitor, window capture

well there's your problem, with window capture it's impossible to do what you want to do. what happens to the stream when you alt-tab to another window?

It just displays the window I switched to.

You can capture a single window if you have Aero enabled using Window capture. You can't capture a single tab in a browser, but you can pop that tab out of the browser into its own window.

could you go into detail? that sounds helpful

For which part? Enabling Aero, or popping out a browser tab?
