I just upgraded to a new Windows 10 laptop and reinstalled OBS. For the first time, I was able to use game capture easily, but monitor capture, which always worked fine on my previous laptop, gives a black screen. One quirk of my new laptop is that it has two graphics cards. Some specs are found here: http://aethon056.deviantart.com/art/New-Laptop-Specs-575512087
After reading several threads (especially this one https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/monitor-capture-not-working.5211/) I found out how to switch OBS manually to the intel card with the NVIDIA control panel. This seems to enable the monitor capture, but now the game capture is again black screening. Is there a way to set OBS to use different cards for different capture modes?
Just a note, in the OBS settings, under video, I did try switching the video adapter to both cards, along with restarting OBS each time, but this did not seem to help. Also, I'm using OBS 0.657b. I tried the multiplatform version, but it was having the same issues.
Finally, I apologize in advance if I'm doing this forum thread thing incorrectly. I've never posted on a forum before.
