Hi, while using OBS, I also have the "change your wall paper every X minutes" option activated for my windows, yet when the wallpaper changes, it does not change in OBS unless I "clean up" my entire monitor a.k.a. drag a window as if to act like an eraser to remove old wallpaper to show new one. Is there a way so that I don't have to do that so that it automatically refreshes my desktop background?

we need a log file. do you use monitor capture?
 
Yes, I used monitor capture, and not sure if this is the log file but hopefully the uploaded file is

After messing around for a bit, it only occurs when I use "stream privacy" with OBS. Is there an explanation as to why it does this?

Lower your keyframes to 2. Im not sure about the privacy option as ive not seen that yet. Id post in the bug reports section.
 
well that day I downloaded it and started to use it, so at that time it was all on default, I then read on the broadcast setting part that told me to swap to 2. Afterwards, the wallpapers still didn't change. I've posted on bugs page already so hopefully there will be an answer
