Question / Help Recording Output is a Black Screen with Audio

Hi.

So I recently tried capturing a game of Overwatch on my PC through the means of a Window Capture dedicated to Overwatch.exe. After opening up the game, OBS Studio identified the window and displayed it. Having pressed 'Start Recording' and beginning to play the game, the OBS Studio client showed the game being visualised perfectly fine.

After finishing playing the game of Overwatch, I proceeded to press 'Stop Recording' and almost immediately afterwards I went to the file location to watch the recording (saved as a .mov file). After trying to watch the recording in both Windows Media Player and the Windows 10 Film & TV default, I was met with a recording which had only captured the audio within the Overwatch game and there was an absence of graphical content throughout. I have absolutely no idea as to why this has happened and would greatly appreciate it if anybody could shed some light on this issue and find a resolution to this problem.

Thanks.

Using fullscreen? Window Capture can capture windowed or borderless windowed, but not exclusive fullscreen. For fullscreen, use game capture if possible.

There might be a problem with your video player.
Try VLC player, k-lite codec pack, or compatible.
