Question / Help How to hide OBS from screen region ?

[AelstormX]

Do you actually know how to do this ? Cuz as far as I can remember xsplit had a check box that allowed you to hide xsplit from screen region you could have stream normal, with no cascading windows or other stuff like that.

I tried Stream privacy it does not work.

Any other ways ? I saw that someone, like Dyrus, he figured out how to do this. If I will ask him how he did that, he won't answer cuz he is lazy and stuff like that.

If you guys know, please don't be selfish and share the answer.

Don't use Monitor Captureunless you absolutely have to (unless on windows 8+, where it's fine). Keep Aero enabled and use Game Capture or Window Capture for everything. With Aero enabled, Window Capture will only capture the window you have specified.

BUt he does not use, only one window, he uses his entire monitor and he has like no cascading windows, or w/e.

Btw how can I get your signature with my name on it ?

I bet he has two monitors. He captures his main monitor with the games and stuff and has obs open on the other one.

I thought about that too, but I am not that rich as he is to buy a monitor with my own money, but besides this there is like no other way huh ?

Is it that big of a deal? I'd say just live with it, and leave OBS minimized. You're not going to always be streaming the OBS window all the time, right? The cascading effect doesn't hurt anything, it just looks funny for a second.
