Struggling with streamlabs obs

Post by Guigs »

Hi everyone,

I'm having some troubles with streamlabs obs, the program doesn't recognize aoe3 (window mode or full screen) but however it works with every other games such as pubg, fortnite etc...
Does someone using streamlabs obs and has a solution ?

Actually first start aoe 3, then go to add source and select window capture, from the drop down list select age3y.exe. select done/add source it should work

Game capture can be buggy sometimes. Make sure you're running OBS in administrator mode, or OBS will only stream a black screen. Check the game capture's properties to see if there are any other problems.

Window capture works too, but it also shows everything other than AoE3 which you may not want for whatever reason.

what bramboy is talking is about display capture, window capture works for specific window

There is OBS classic but also OBS studio. I have had problems with one of them, but not with the other. OBS classic is no longer updated, but might still work for you.

There’s actually a streamlabs obs now as well. I wouldn’t recommend it as I’ve heard nothing but bad things about it.

I currently use stream labs obs and it works perfectly fine, it is an integration of many things so at start all the features of obs studio were into included, but now it is pretty much better than studio.
