Question / Help How to process windows 8.1 desktop in the dedicated card

[H4uZ]

So, I have a laptop (with dual graphics bullshit: dedicated amd and on-die intel). So I can only stream either the desktop (if I run OBS in the intel card) or the games (if I run OBS in the amd card). Obviously this is really annoying, since I have to restart OBS after assigning it to a new card.

What I want is to know how to delegate windows 8.1 desktop to the dedicated card (since the intel can't run games), so I can run OBS on the dedicated without issues. In fact, what would be better was for OBS to work with both sources.

Any help with this?

If you have an AMD/intel switchable laptop with windows 8+, the only way you can capture is to run a game in a borderless/windowed mode, then use window capture with 'compatibility mode' set in its properties. Unfortunately there's pretty much nothing else you can really do, due to the switchable AMD/intel drivers.
