Hi,
Just got a DELL XPS 15 7590 and I get a black screen. Tried the graphics set-up with Intel or NVIDIA, neither worked....I'm trying to capture a live stream on internet (show). I used to be able to do it with my desk computer. I am not an expert, but really appreciated using OBS and would like to find a solution... I've attached an image of my system info and the parameters I am using in OBS. Any help would be appreciated ;)

I tried a screen recording. Again, sorry, not an expert, thanks for your help. Using .mp4 output, since I want to be able to watch it on tv after...

Logs say you're still running OBS on your dedicated GPU.

Make sure to follow the "1909 or newer" directions:
Open Settings and search for "Graphics Settings". Select "Classic App" and browse to C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe (or wherever you have installed OBS). Click "Options" (example screenshot).

If you want to use display capture to capture your screen / desktop, select "Power Saving".
If you want to use game capture to capture a game or use the NVENC encoder, select "High Performance".
