Question / Help OBS only works if I disable integrated graphics

[MG115070]

I set OBS to use NVIDIA graphics via NVIDIA control panel, game capture is the only thing that works, display capture shows a black screen. If I use intergrated graphics, only display capture works. Please help me. My log files: https://obsproject.com/logs/3JtjxLvOaOhnTwWS

Unfortunately, that's the way laptops with dual GPU (external hi-performance and internal low-power) work.

I tried xsplit, and it does both. It captured my game, and and capture my screen. So whats going on?

xsplit doesn't do things the same way on the capture side (and it's very likely that xsplit actually performs worse because of it)

 

[MG115070]

so xsplit uses more performance?

 

[Harold]

Xsplit will use more of your system to do the same job

So can you please explain on why xsplit can do both, yet OBS cant?

I realized that if i disable integrated graphics both work, is it safe/OK to do so?
