Question / Help Picture in Picture Not Displaying 2nd Layer

Hello,

I have a gaming pc connected to a laptop via a capture card.

I can connect all sources, no problem, in OBS, on the laptop.

I'm trying to do some gaming with a small window showing my ugly mug...the webcam on the laptop is the source. If you see from the attached screenshot, it won't "insert" the 2nd media source (webcam on laptop) into the red window. IF I double click on the webcam, it opens up showing the display...but it won't overlay.

I can't understand why, and I've searched google for hours.

Thanks gang!

Sources are layered in the order they are listed in the source pane.

The webcam you've selected, indicated by the red outline and 2nd in the source list, is underneath the "video capture device 2" which appears to be a full screen source. Rename your sources so you can clearly see which is which, and drag to the top of the list the items you want on top.
