It wouldn't let me post my actual post so ill post it here:

When i stream using monitor capture my monitors flash on and off every like 1 second and obs just shows black screen. It only happens with monitor capture. I am running on Windows Technical Preview if that makes a difference.

Getting the same here on Windows Technical Preview too.

Game captures work fine, as do Window Capture and Webcam, but flashes when trying to Monitor Capture.
