Question / Help I'm getting frustrated...

So here's my problem (And it seems to be common thing)

For the last 2 days, OBS has worked just fine for me. Windows Capture worked just fine and recorded the game I was playing. Now its not working at all. I haven't changed any settings, I have loaded the game the same way every time. Display capture isn't even working.

NOTHING IS WORKING

I have tried for hours to get this to work again and nothing. This has happened before with OBS (I'm using OBS Studio now).
Game Capture is broken. Used to be able to record Remote Play for PS4 and then the next day it decided to not record it anymore. Windows capture previewing box always messes up, not the correct size all the time (Haven't changed a single setting). Display Capture not actually capturing any of my displays (I have 2). Windows capture not being able to pick my game up or not recording anything at all. There's more I could but I'm just frustrated with this.

Please, help me with this. I can't provide a log file as I don't know how that will help.

Yeah, two game capture in one scene collection.

Your log-file doesn't contain any recording or streaming traces. Why you didn't run any game? Post a log with recording attempt, please.

Log shows multiple capture being used, maybe start a fresh scene collection and limit to only one scene and one capture mode (game, or window, or display capture) until its working. Delete one capture and switch to another capture if not working.

PS4 remote play is mostly not the best way to capture PS4. Maybe buy a capture card that is compatible with your computer. To allow using capture card with PS4, go to PS4 settings, system, turn off HDCP.

Here's the updated log file of me trying to record anything. I was talking about when you set up the scenes and it previews of what you're recording, It's not doing that.

I know that Remote play isn't the best but its all I have right now. I'm not going to spend $100+ on a capture card. It has worked 3 times and then it stopped working.

I've had this happen to me before and its getting to the point of, I'm not going to bother with it anymore.

Can you post a screenshot of OBS showing your preview window and sources list, please make sure that the source for your game capture is highlighted in the list.

Have you also tried creating a new Scene Collection with a new scene that contains only the one source for your game capture?

Make sure that your game assigned to NVidia card, not to HD Graphics. Check 'Multi-adapter compatibility' option. Use Game Capture. Target RemotePlay.exe. Run application fullscreen. Ask him - DresdenKing , finally.

In either of the logs you posted, there was no attempt at capturing the game. I would start with removing the other Game Capturer source.
I can capture 8-bit armies just fine.
