settings help in OBS

[figital]

hello everyone!

 

i was trying to record my gameplay and i am having some issues.

 

FRAPS works ok, but the software is clunky and the resulting files are huge.

 

i heard about OBS and it sounded amazing.   so i grabbed it and put it on my comp

and when i load it up, i get a black screen.  i can choose rocksmith.exe ok in the

drop down, but when i look at the preview, i get a tiny red dot in the upper left 

and nothing more.  i did a ctrl +F to make the red box the full screen.

 

is there something i am missing here?  i watched some vids on youtube and i understand

all the basics, but it seems to not work. 

 

thanks for any and all help!

is there perhaps some exclusivity setting you're missing? Have you tried windowed mode instead of full screen? I haven't tried OBS since Remastered. If I have any ideas after I try and open it I'll post back.

 

Edit: Holy shit, your post has been sitting there unresponded to for almost a month! Did you already solve this?
