Hi,

Disabling "Show Cursor" has no effect when using the new WindowsGraphicsCapture desktop capture mode. The cursor shows even when the captured window is behind another window.
Is this a bug, or just a limitation of the WindowsGraphicsCapture mode?

Thanks!

That is correct, it is a limitation of the WindowsGraphicsCapture method at this time.

Hi,

A year ago from what I can see, it was said this is a limitation of WindowsGraphicsCapture. We're moving all of our operators to Vmix from OBS, and in OBS, using this method, we can disable the show cursor.

How come OBS is able to do it using the same technology? This is a major problem when capturing multiple windows stacked over one another. A quick movement of the mouse and it appears in the stream.

Thank you
