Question / Help OBS Studio White Screen Preview Screen

[Munchy Poro]

I got a problem whenever I start / run OBS. I have the latest from their webpage (September 9, 2018 | 8:30 am Philippine Standard Time). Before I had a black screen and I didn't knew what to do. I tried restarting, uninstalling, running it as administrator, running in x64 but still no progress.

Here's the log regarding my system and the obs:

You need to set OBS to run on your Intel GPU to use Display Capture. Display Capture is not very efficient compared to Window Capture and Game Capture, so it is recommended to use those instead if possible.

If you must use Display Capture, follow the instructions in the Laptop performance guide for "I want to use Display Capture" / "Configure your system for Display Capture". Please note that this will make it impossible to use Window Capture and make it difficult to use Game Capture.
