Question / Help Unable to capture specific application - Combat Manager

[WiNGCMD]

Greetings,

I use OBS for my tabletop gaming group and I have one remote guy who I stream to with the help of the Virtual Cam plugin and Skype. I composed a scene with everything I need but there is one app window I simply cannot capture at all. This is application is Combat Manager (http://combatmanager.com/). Since I am in a laptop with two graphic adapters I of course tried first to run both CM and OBS in the Intel card with no sucess, both on the nVidia card with no success either. Tried Game capture mode instead of Window mode, tried the "multi-adapter" option... none of that worked so far. From what I saw, CM is an old WPF application, and I believe WPF apps gave some trouble to be captured with OBS in the past, but I couldn't find any easy fix to get them.

So I am a bit at a loss at the moment, and would very much welcome any suggestion on other combinations I could try for OBS to be finally able to capture CM window

Thanks

some things like Windows store apps only work in display capture with crop down to the selected area

Well, that will have to do. Display capture seems to not be working on my laptop but it is indeed working on my desktop. I'll have to find out what is going wrong over there. Window capture for CM didn't work in any, so at least this is some progress. Thanks for the tip
