Question / Help Screen Duplication [resolved]

[antibland]

Hi,

I'm new to OBS and (fruitlessly) searched for an answer to this screen duplication problem. Hopefully you can help. Please have a look at what I'm seeing when I add "Display Capture". Any ideas what's going on?

Working as intended. It's capturing everything on the screen, including OBS which is displaying everything being captured, namely everything that's on the screen.

It's the same hall-of-mirrors effect you get if you point a camcorder at a TV showing what the camcorder is recording.

Move OBS off the screen, to your second monitor.

I feel like a dope! Thanks for the reply.
