Hello, sorry if I posted in the wrong place but I didn't find anything about the problem I'm experiencing. I use OBS on a computer that has an onboard video card and an AMD offboard card. When I open OBS and I will add the function: screen capture in a scene, it does not show the video ports of the AMD card, show only the onboard port. What can it be ?

That means you're running OBS on the onboard GPU.

If this is a laptop, look here:


If not, it means you need to plug both/all you monitors into your discrete GPU. OBS cannot run on one GPU and capture from the other.

Thanks for reply. I have a PC with a AMD graphics card. The main monitor is conected in Onboard GPU and the Projector in AMD GPU. I use a program that uses the projector and I will to capture the projection screen but OBS Studio don´t recognize them.

If OBS is running on the main monitor which is connected to the onboard GPU it will not be able to capture projector if that is connected to the AMD GPU.

Connect both your displays to the AMD GPU.
