Hello Fellows,
I have a Laptop which witch I wanted to stream for a decade but never was able to because of the well known issue: My dedicated graphic (AMD Radeon(TM) HD8970M) card doesn't show up in the settings. After long research and no solution and any help, I stopped working on the problem. Now I started again working on it, and realized OBS updated their Software and it looks totally different now. Happy that they might have changed something, I checked out which video adapter I might be able to use, to realize: I can't use any of my cards.(AMD Radeon(TM) HD8970M;Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600) The Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 was the selected card before the update.( was not able to change it)

Question:
Why can't I choose any card? If there is a way to use them,
How do I make it possible that this time it is my dedicated (AMD Radeon(TM) HD8970M) graphic card ?

Note: I did update ALL of my drivers. I STILL can't delete the stupid intel card. And just buying me a new computer with NVIDIA is sadly not an option, because I believe there is for everything a solution.

Pleas help me with this one, I am going completely crazy!

Studio doesn't have that option yet.
You need to force OBS on to your radeon in the AMD control panel if it's possible to do so.

Somehow I guess computers are stronger than humans, I can't force him to run the program on AMD Radeon(TM) HD8970M. I go into my AMD settings, searched for OBS, connected into the AMD, but still. refusing to follow my demand...
