Recording right, but missing items in window

[johndavid]

I got it to record (window capture then resized), but not recording some elements. I am trying to record logic x, In big Sur 11.03. It works but doesn't display vst (pigments or any vst), just the background (logic by itself). It shows me turning clips on, displays everything changing, but not the vst itself, an issue I can't find anywhere. Any ideas?

The FX windows are their own separate windows. The Window Capture is doing exactly what it's supposed to do, in capturing only the one that you specified, even if it's not on top. (a very useful feature) It's actually a *window* capture, not a specific screen area.

If you want to capture whatever is on the screen, use a Screen Capture instead. If you don't want the entire screen, you can crop it from there.

Thanks, I'll try, but the logic project is not available as a window option, or once out of 10 tries.

I mean now, when I choose display capture, then choose window manual, logic x project does not come up as an option. It will record me thru camera, but not the screen. Sound is fine, but no logic x option, have deleted it, reinstalled, redownloaded, it just doesn't even see logic. I'll try again tomorrow

Do you not have this?:

You're Mac and I'm Linux, but you should still have something.

Screen/Display Capture is different from Window Capture. You choose a physical screen, not a window, and you get whatever is on that screen, as if you had a capture card between the computer and the monitor.

I have display capture, but when I try to find the window, these are the options I usually get

It has, previously shown logic as an option, but not anymore

I think it's an apple issue, logic did appear once a few hours ago, but not offering anything but desktop now. I updated in Dec. And there's been lots of bugs. That's the complete list of options

You're still using the wrong capture. Look at my screenshot again, and maybe post your version of that list.

When I command click on source I get this, not what you're getting, how are you that menu

Okay, once I moved obs down (off screen) it "sees" the logic x project, and it appears in display capture (for me). I got a full screen video using logic x launching scenes, changing settings on pigments vst, with good sound. I want to record sessions this way, then post. It's awkward, needs to be edited, but exactly what I want for you tube. Thanks a lot for your help and have a good night
