When I record my videos I have the two issues written in the title. How can I fix them? My microphone is ok when I'm on ts or other audio capturing software...

Hello.
Make sure you have enabled your mic in OBS. Green circle in the picture :D. That's the only thing I know atm. sett.png

And black screen? First of all open the game. In OBS Click on the preview button. Then go for Game Capture (fullscreen game) or Windows Capture(windows mode) and add game that you are playing. Go back in to the game and w8 just a sec. Go back in to the OBS and you should be able to see the game in the OBS window.

Window capture only captures a Windowed Game. Game capture will capture full screen games, But you may not see any activity on screen if you've alt tabbed to look at the preview in OBS. Some games don't stay active if they're not the primary window.

For mic, Make sure you have the proper mic device selected in the audio settings, Then adjust the volume slider as Terror provided a picture of as high as you need it. You will likely have to reduce the right slider, the system/game sound, to compensate, as that will almost always be louder. If push comes to shove, in the audio settings, there is a Mic boost, simply change its value in the audio options from 1 to 2.

I solved the problem of black screen.. It was the normal error caused by Nvidia that makes it uses the Intel graphic card... =D

But for Mic nothing: in audio settings I cannot understand wich is my microfone cause I have a laptop with an internal one. I use the external, but in the audio settings it shows ALWAYS "Realtek high definition audio" (Microfone) and "Realtek high definition audio" (Mixer) and their level does not change, even if I scream...
With "Default" on OBS it seems to take the external one, but the audio in too low, even if in Realtek I have growed it of 12 decibel.
Ah, there are no hidden periferals on recording tab of windows audio.
And I have not understood what I have to change to boost the micro, Hopewithinchaos
