Question / Help Updated to 18.0.1 and OBS wont find Elgato

[swagart644]

After updating my OBS studio the software will no longer detect my elgato. I have reinstalled the Elgato drivers and still nothing.

Reinstalled obs and this hasn't helped as well. Other software can detect the elgato OBS however, will not.This was all working a few days ago but today isn't for some reason. Just looking for insight on what it could be.

My guess is that it is 18.0.1. I have had lots of problems with the update. There are also a lot of people getting black screens for their game and window captures recently so I think maybe rolling back to a previous version may help.

Try both 32-bit and 64-bit OBS Studio.

I reverted back to 17.0.2 and all my issues went away. If you can't figure out your problems on 18.0.1, try reverting to a previous version.

That's bad advice, the Elgato works perfectly fine with 18.0.1

When you say "OBS wont find Elgato" do you mean you cannot see the "Game Capture HD" source?
