Fix OBS Won't Running and Black Screen Problems

If you familiar to use OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) Studio program - Free and open source software for video recording and live streaming -, actually there are 2 big problems I found yet that so disturbing. The first is that the OBS won't running and also there's black screen on preview of Display Capture window. Don't worry, the solution is below on the video...

 
So, if the OBS won't running after it first installation and there's an error message similar like this, it's a result of the wrong codec being selected to output the recording file or there's nothing codec selected that support OBS to run.


The solution is simply as you have to make sure that your graphic card have the latest version of driver installed on your system. If nothing goes wrong, than this error will not showing up anymore.

The second problem when you see that there's black screen on preview of Display Capture window which is very supposed to be showing your desktop screen and it usually happened on a system with 2 graphic cards installed such as laptop which have Intel as a display graphic and NVidia as a render graphic - just for example.


It's happened when your OBS detected Intel as a render graphic instead of the other one.
The solution for this is you need to setting up what graphic card that use to be a rendering function.
First, open the configuration of your main graphic card and simply add the OBS program as a "white list" so that the program will recognize the same display as a rendering graphic card.

Select the preferred graphic processor to integrated graphics. Apply and now you can start the OBS and see the result. Tadaaa.... It's worked!
