When i try to stream it's just black. I've added a scene and a game (wants to stream starcraft 2) but keeps staying black in ''preview stream''. I've tried to streaming a picture but that doesn't work either. Any suggestions what it might be? :O

1) if your using game capture there is a test build that is supposed to have fixed some issues (download is on the forums)
2) make sure your running in administrative mode (just to be safe)
3) if you are using window capture make sure your game is windowed last I checked all of blizzards newer games have borederless windowed mode.
