That wasn't a "yes/no" question. That was a "provide one of these"

That screenshot isn't complete.

Your log shows that you're running OBS on the iGPU instead of the NVIDIA GPU, which breaks window capture. Follow the guide and run OBS on the NVIDIA GPU.

Any chance I can get some help with the same problem? I get the audio into my live stream from Skype, so that's promising, I could conceivably live stream with an image of my guest in the "split screen", to get started. However, looking for more of a professional look, I'd be indebted to you guys if you could help get me together with the Skype video. I do have an older version of Skype, but I wonder if it's the right version based on the logo I saw on some tutorials.

I need the FULL screen showing you attempting to capture skype

Desperately hoping I can piggy back off of the original poster's request for help. I read up on the NVIDIA info, but I don't think I have that on my laptop. I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me out with getting this Skype video captured so I can do a split screen presentation for interviews on my live streams.

The latest version of skype for desktop, version 8.29.0.50, has the ability to NDI output video calls. You don't need to window capture anymore.

Feeling like I wasted a couple of hours walking in the wrong direction... Latest version wouldn't be the Skype for Windows 10 version, right? Are there any links in any threads for the version you called out. Last question to your reply, if you're not doing a window capture from the Sources add function anymore, what's the steps to get the video into OBS?

You need the NDI plugin and you need the Desktop (not windows store) version of skype listed above.
Once you have both you should be able to just add the individual parts of the skype call to OBS as NDI sources.

Could be a stupid question... I have Skype 8.29. Would I right to presume this is different from the 8.29.0.50 you've called out?
