Question / Help How to keep streaming the game when Alt-tabbing?

[Fotmhero]

Hey everyone,

So I just bought a new computer and I pretty much lost my old OBS config.

With my old computer I'm pretty sure I found an option to keep OBS streaming the game even when I'm alt tabbing, instead of showing a black screen, but now I can't seem to find the option anymore and I don't remember how I did it..

Can anyone help me?

Thanks!

The game needs to be running windowed, fullscreen games don't continue rendering when minimized.

Really? I'm 100% sure I always used the game capture, fullscreened and I was able to do it. Also, sometimes it randomly does it. Last time I streamed I alt-tabbed and I was able to see my game running on OBS, and when I checked the replay to be sure about it, the game was indeed still being streamed when I alt-tabbed.. I'm confused.
