Question / Help Windows Capture is not detecting my internet browser or VLC Player

[Sonic-Keyblade 007]

Hello, whenever I try to use the Windows Capture Feature in OBS, it doesn't seem to detect Google Chrome or the VLC Player and instead just detects other files that produce a black screen. Although, I am able to get VLC files to work with the Media Source option but I want to also have the Windows Capture option as well. Here is a picture to further describe my situation: http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b602/SonicKeyblade007/OBS Help_zpskjgjyrad.png

Thank you for your time.

*Bump*, sorry but does anyone have any suggestions? I also now have an issue where the window drop-down detection list is blank and isn't detecting anything.

I'm sorry for all of the bumps, but is there really no one who has an answer to my problem? Thank you for your time.

Chrome is a known issue CAUSED BY CHROME.
Disable acceleration in it.

Thank you so much for your reply, by disabling acceleration in Chrome I'm now able to capture Chrome in OBS but I am still having issues capturing media files using the "Windows Capture" option. When I use the "Media Source" option it works though. Is it just not possible to capture for example an MP4 file with the "Windows Capture" option?

You may need to change the renderer in vlc to get it to work with window capture.
