All advises are highly welcome how do I get the capture image visible in OBS preview and recordings.

The stream is (from TVR, from camera) visible in live put the image is not even visible in any images/videos captures.

Hopefully the captured still image shows the problem. In live feed there is image from camera (in TVR window) but any of capturing programs are not able to show in it.

The above screenshots don't seem to show a camera image, either in TVR or in OBS. Looks like whatever TVR is doing to display an image prevents it from being captured. Are you attempting game capture, window capture or display capture? Are you on a laptop?

Hopefully following pictures will clarify the problem. There is picture in TVR.

Picture taken with phone camera.

Screen capture (Snipping tool MS10)

Totally strange case for me because the capture program is not able to show the image in capture image even if it is there!!.

I've seen this with other apps if the played content is protected by some sort of DRM. The surface of the media player where the video is supposed to appear is simply black in OBS preview and OBS recordings, even with OBS monitor capture.

The app you show seems to be some sort of TV player, so this might apply. There is no workaround. It's how DRM is designed and supposed to work. Not even the Window screenshot function is able to grab a picture. It's like magic. Magic censorship.
