Question / Help Window capture suddenly stopped displaying.

[Iain]

Hi all,

I have recently started broadcasting my RPG games on Twitch. D&D and now Star Trek Adventures.

I have an overlay and also several window captures of the roll20.net window for the players web cams and the game screen.
This was working fine and with no problem, until I updated OBS recently. Since then, the windows captures just show blackness. They are capturing something because it is picking up the cursor movement and displaying that. It is just showing the cursor movement on a black screen.

As far as I know, the only thing I have done since this happened is update OBS.

Even if I try to add a new window capture since the update, it just displays a black window.

I have included a screenshot of the problem, with OBS open and roll20 open behind it.

My log file can be found here:

I hope it is just a simple setting I need to change, but I have no idea what has caused this.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Kind regards,
Iain

I'm having the same issue when trying to capture Final Fantasy XIV. Either a black or messed up screen using window capture or just a flashing border using game capture. It was working fine before I updated the software this morning before I started my cast. I'm only using my one screen from my laptop to play my pc games and window capture worked perfectly for using just one screen as I used obs to play the game. I didn't get any crashes so I have no logs. I do have a gyazo screen capture you can look at when I was trying to get it to work. I've tried everything from closing OBS and starting XIV first then opening OBS, Opening OBS first then the game, closing all windows then starting the game and then OBS all with the same result. I've already shutdown my laptop twice since the update. This is crazy. I've never had this many issues with Classic.

Just took a gyazo gif to show the border flash when trying to capture the game as a game capture

I found my log files. Maybe you can look at them and see what's up.

I have the same problem, using Windows capture on Armored Wafare (Running in Borderless Windows), getting a black screen.
But i can use Screen Cap and it works.....
Before Windows latest update it worked. Tried to reinstal Windows 10 and it did't work.

Attached my latest log.
