Hi all, sorry if this is solved in an old thread, just new to the comunity.

i followed the steps for recording videogames (wow and lol) from:
https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/laptop-black-screen-when-capturing-read-here-first.5965/

it worked perfectly! the problem now is that i cannot record in a new scene simply my desktop, it happens the same it used to happen before when i tried to record games (all black). for what i understood from the thread i can record my desktop using compatibilitty mode?:

Window capture and "compatibility mode":
  • If you cannot set the GPU (AMD laptops typically), or wish to cross-capture an image from the other GPU after that (example, league of legends lobby window), use window/monitor capture with the "compatibility mode" option enabled to force a capture. "Compatibility mode" requires a bit more CPU usage however.
  • Compatibility mode is not recommended for capturing games, but it basically guarantees a capture.
  • Game capture does not have a compatibility mode. Game capture must run on the same GPU as that you wish to capture.
the problem is that i dont see the monitor capture compatibility mode checkbox anywhere and the window capture compatibility mode does nothing (still black).

Ty for your time!
 
Are you on Windows 10? If so, disable the Game Mode. I am not at my PC to see if it works but Overwatch activates the game mode and Team Fortress 2 does not, which would explain why I had no problem generating a replay buffer for Team Fortress 2. Cheers.
