Question / Help Two seperate instances of the same game

[Deadc3ll]

Hey all,

I've been toying around with OBS and have been trying to run two seperate instances of the same game to stream at the same time, I only have one screen so I've resorted to using the Window Capture option but when I use window capture it just shows two sections of the same stream, rather than the two seperate instances, I'm sure I'm missing something here but I'm stumped, anyone know how I can stream two seperate windows of the same game?

If Aero is enabled and neither window is minimized, then window capture should be able to capture windows that aren't being shown.

Neither is enables and both are configured to be side by side on my screen, but for some reason it shows the same thing twice rather than the different instances of the game. Whichever one I seem to click on and refresh stream preview is the one that it shows doubles of. Would it be that the program thinks each instance is actually the same? For example when I choose the drop down menu it lists World of Warcraft twice, with no differences in the name, would that cause this not to work?

Do both windows have the same name in the Title bar?

Yes

You might have to use game capture with the hotkey feature instead of window capture to capture a specific world of warcraft window
