#LSFG 2.9 Black Screen on Fallout 4 (and possibly other games) when used on an HDR screen with LSFG

As of the latest update the program is generating an instant black screen the moment it's on, with any scaling method and any amount of framegen.

LSFG prior to this update did not have this issue. FO4 is running Borderless Window.

Running 6900XT and 5800X3D and up until the update, all worked fine.

I'm willing to dedicate time to testing and helping to find this issue.

Notable is that when I tab out of Fallout 4, the black screen disappears, but when I tab in, it's back. The game is running in the background, so nothing is affected there.

Is it actually a black screen or the screen goes like dark?

It still shows the fps counter

#

I have figured out the issue

#

Any Capture API other than DXGI causes the issue, DXGI does not

well, GDI is for some very old games only

#

DXGI should be the default one to use

#

WGC is legacy method that is still used in specific scenarios rarely

Make sure you don’t have this option on if you were using HDR

For me after the update GDI was the new one
