Hello.Display capture doesn't work when OBS runs on the nvidia. It needs to run on the integrated GPU
In my case(Laptop + docking station + 2 external monitors + Win 10Pro 64 bit + Nvidia GeForce 940MX) neither of the integrated or video card selection works when attempting to capture video from any of the external monitors AFTER upgrading to 22.0.2 version performed a few days ago.
Other options work, browser, game or window capture.
I noticed a thin red border being displayed in all cases that work but nothing similar is visible for display capture, at most I can see something like a red dot that disappears as soon as I click on it.
I have the kit for the previous version that worked flawlessly and will probably use it if I won't receive any relevant help.
Thank you.

The problem disapeared after several restarts of the app, all of a sudden the red border had the size of the screen and inside the part of the screen I wished to capture became visible...Hello.

...and 2 years later I'm plagued by the same issue, after upgrade to ver. 26.0.2 (64bit) and using the same above setup I can't capture anything from displays...only capture from a certain browser works but that's not how I typically use OBS...and new discoveries on this topic?
Thank you.
Thank you.

...and after discovering and applying this:
"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 "
things are back to normal but WHY? So far things were OK with settings in the Nvidia Control Panel, 3D settings, what changed in this new version?
