Hey! I have searched and searched through these forums and others to find a solution to my problem to no avail.

I am attempting to use skype or discord video chat if it can work to display 6-7 different webcams on one scene. After the most recent update I was receiving black screens on all of my window captures. I fixed this by allowing them to run as administrators and I was able to get my chrome window capture to work. However I cannot window capture my skype. I am using the desktop version of skype and the most recent version of OBS. PLEASE HELP! I cannot upload a log file atm but can do so when I return home.
 
I have a similar problem and get a black screen. I was using the windows version but found a way to install the stand alone version. I am currently using a dell xps 15. Could there be an issue with this?

If you run OBS as admin and quickly switch to another window before OBS window shows up, the hotkeys still don't work.
