Bug Report Planetside 2 and local recording, HUD issues.

[Reverenz]

Hey guys,

I started to use OBS in local recording mode to record some Planetside 2 footages. Everything is fine except that when I watch the video into VLC or WMP, the in game HUD keeps flash for some reason.

This doesn't look good. Do you really need 2 game captures and the extra monitor capture?

Further down we see:

Warning -- GraphicsCaptureSource::BeginScene: Failed to inject library, GetLastError = 0

I think the reason it's failing to hook into the game is because you are trying to do it twice.
The reason you are seeing flicker is because you are recording with monitor capture while having the game in fullscreen mode.

Solution:
Clean up your capture sources. If you want to do game capture, then have only 1 of it in the sources and also delete the monitor capture.

Hello sir,
You're right,i've just set a scene with game capture and deleted every others scenes, and it works pretty well. Thank you sir.
