Question / Help Remember my decision to ignore Afterburner

Hey there,
in the past I've had only few problems using MSI Afterburner and OBS together so i want to continue to do so.
What really bothers me is that the incompatibility check cannot remember my decision to ignore the warning.

EVERY TIME i want to record anything (if i closed OBS after the last recording or not) i get asked to cancel/retry/ignore the warning and have to ALT+TAB out of the game that i capture.

I already have added OBS to the ignore list of the RivaTuner Statistics Server (which does the monitoring/OSD work for Afterburner) but the warning still shows up.

Is there any way to disable this warning or adding OBS to the ignore list, in a way that OBS' checks dont alert anymore?

And yes I am sure, that Afterburner is the problem, because the warning doesn't show when afterburner is disabled.

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately RTSS still loads into OBS even when you tell it to ignore it, so OBS has no way of knowing whether you actually added it to the ignore list or not. There's currently no way to override the compatibility check.

If the warning still shows up then something is still trying to hook OBS. It isn't a one-time check where you can dismiss it forever, it checks each time on startup and notifies you of any offending programs. I doubt this behavior will change because it's an important warning, and the appropriate course of action would be to find out what's causing the warning (whether that's Afterburner/RivaTuner or something else) and configuring it to ignore OBS.

Well sorry to bother you folks, I have found the reason for my problems.
I have recently reinstalled OBS, so the new shortcut started the 32bit version of OBS, while I ignored the 64bit version :D

Since it works for me now, it seems like you are incorrect (which is great ... in this case :D ) and RTSS really stops loading into ignored programs :)
I think ignoring the wrong version of OBS is a well spread mistake, so if anyone has a similar problem this might be the solution ;)

And wow you guys were seriously quick.
I just edited my topic and suddenly - two answers :D
