Hi I was hoping to stream some games using obs but keep getting a black screen.Other games seem to work fine. Anyone had this problem or know a fix?

What specific games are you trying to stream? There is a great variety of engines and approaches.

Hi thank you for the reply,
shadow empires .decisive campaigns barbarossa, strategic command world at war, valor and victory. I did get Panzer corp 2 to work after the game started. Any other game I try seems to work fine and I have tried a lot of the usual obs fixes. What am I missing?

IIRC those are games which are likely using Windows GDI etc. Perhaps the streaming software is more focused on DX/OGL games?
