When I go to stream the thumbnail shows that there is gameplay, but when u expand the screen it quickly cuts to a black screen. Then when I check the vod the whole stream is normal. This is not just for me it shows a black screen for my friends on my stream as well. Please help I want to stream.

- Make sure your OS is up to date.
- Black only on viewer side. Change your encoder. Intel QuickSync may not work with your setup.
- If you have HDR turned on, please turn it off.
- If you have a GPU, make sure all monitors are connected to the GPU.
- If you're trying to capture a fullscreen game, the game needs to enter focus / be foregrounded at least once.
- Try opening the game first and then Twitch Studio, or vice versa.
- After Twitch Studio updates, a system restart might be required for Twitch Studio to capture correctly.
- Some weird setups will require Twitch Studio and the game to be on the same monitor.
- Restart your computer.
- Some video cards have an issue where the game won't show up in the preview, but will show up in the stream or recording.
- If the above doesn't work, submit a bug. Entire monitor capture may be a viable workaround.
