Open Broadcaster Software (OBS)

Hi guys i used to use OBS for recording my PSO2 gameplay. Work flawless.
But now, why won't OBS detect PSO2 while it's running as a program? anyone know the issue/fix?
thanks in advance

Weird, it never worked for me in the first place. I have to record the monitor instead.

It's most likely gameguard.
I use Fraps and if you have a Nvidia GPU, you can use Nvidia share or Nvidia Shadowplay.

Try running OBS as Admin, I had this problem until I did that.

fraps takes too much space, here's the comparison of Video recording software size of video: http://www.gamersnexus.net/game-bench/1561-shadowplay-vs-fraps-vs-gvr-recording-benchmark

i record quna concert with fraps in 5 mins, take me 36 GB.

btw did ur pso2 crashed while alt+tabbing then open the OBS? mine does, i can only run administrator for OBS before pso2 started

Still works for me, no crashing or start before/after.
I can open OBS whenever, no problems. Win 7.

Are you running in regular fullscreen and/or have UAC screen dimming active?

Shadowplay is only available on non-mobile 6xx and up.

Mine crashes sometimes if I Alt-Tab but only now and again. I run in Fullscreen; whether it is any more stable in other modes I'm not sure.

I record PSO2 pretty often and it's way more stable in borderless.

[Qualia]

Always use borderless lol

Virtual fullscreen :)

but it's only some part of the screen that it's recording right?

I stream in VFS, its the entire screen.
