This article provides you with quick-fix tutorials that tackle both potential problems during OBS screen recording. If you still experience the dreaded OBS screen capture black screen and look for a stable screen recording software with also features video editing abilities, we suggest an alternative recording & editing suite you can use that is superior to OBS.

OBS Black Screen

How to resolve OBS black screen for game capture

I was using OBS Studio to record some videos of CS: GO with the 'Game Capture' option, but was consistently left frustrated with a black screen when I launched the game.

At the time there was no information on the internet, but I figured out the problem. So if you are experiencing the same problem here's the solution.

  • Open up CS: GO or whatever games you want to use OBS game capture
  • Pull up OBS
  • Right-click to pull up a menu a select 'Add'. If you like, name the file
  • In the 'game capture' box pull out the drop-down menu at the top and select the game you want to capture. Then check the box titled, 'anti-cheat and compatibility hooking', and click okay.

Since I resolved my problem, I have noticed other users have encountered the OBS black screen when using an NVIDIA control panel. To fix the OBS black screen game capture with NVIDIA open the control panel and follow these instructions.

  • Select 'Manage 3D Settings'
  • Click on the 'Program Settings' tab
  • Pull up OBS in the program list. If it's not there, add it to the list
  • Open the application folder and select OBS64 or OBS32
  • Tick 'show only programs'
  • Select High-Performance NVIDIA processor

Either of the options above should resolve the OBS black screen. However, if the problem still persists, you may want to try alternative software that has a game capture feature such as Wondershare DemoCreator.
