Question / Help Using OBS with a single monitor

[Daxter666]

Hi,
I want to configure my OBS for streaming some games. I'm using window capture atm. When the game I'm capturing is on my screen, then it's working, but when I open OBS to configure my sream I get an infinite image of OBS. Is there a way to still capture the game, even if the game is in the backrow of my screen? I would put OBS on a second screen, but I don't have one. Sry if my eplanations are a bit unclear I'm not a nativ speaker.

Yes, enable Aero when using Window Capture or use Game Capture.

If you have Aero disabled, windows can appear on top of each other when using window capture.

Thanks guys that worked. Any known problems with active aero?

Only if you are using Monitor Capture.
