Hi,

I am using OBS v0.657b on Windows 10 and have some questions.

I am using the Windows 10 Xbox App to capture the Xbox One and livestream it.
This is so I can capture party chat when I get the leads.

My source is set to Monitor Capture (as this was the only one that seem to work) and I have setup some hotkeys.


1. Is there away to turn off Windows 10 Aero, when streaming and have it reload when I close OBS?

2. Is there away to get rid of overlays for example, when I press a hotkey the Xbox App, put an overlay at the top for a small amount of time, is there away to get rid over that, on the Stream, but still see it?

3. Is there another source I can use instead of the Monitor Capture?
I tried the Window Capture and set it to Xbox, but it record either a black screen, with sound or the desktop and when I go back and check it has changed the Window it meant to Capture.

1. No. win10 does not allow aero to be disabled and it is never needed to anyway.
2. you'll have to check on the xbox app in settings for this.
3. No other source works to my knowledge.
