Bug Report image freezing

[MattMan]

I've noticed what I'm pretty sure is a program bug, though it may be game-related. When I stream Cross Fire, any time I join a game the image is frozen. I have to alt-tab and refresh the game capture source for it to unfreeze. The same thing happens at the end of a game or if I alt-tab and don't refresh the capture source. It seems the game screen goes black for a very small instant during loading and the image freezes at that moment, though this black screen thing doesn't occur every single time.

I do know for certain that this doesn't happen with Xsplit. I can provide video of it if that would be any help.

The game is called "Cross Fire"? ...For some reason this game feels unusually familiar.

Anyway, Could you give me a log of this happening?

 

[MattMan]

Yeah, that is the game name. Here's the log file.

Any info on this? Was wondering if something was done to potentially attempt to fix it, unless it's pure coincidence because it seems it's happening less frequently.

I actually haven't had time to get around to taking a look at the specific game, I actually have a number of games on my todo-list to look at that I haven't had time to get around to. It's probably just me not accounting for some thing that this specific game does, so it's probably my fault.

 

[MattMan]

No worries. Glad you're interested in knowing there is a minor issue with this specific game at least. Keep up the good work my friend!

If I remember correct, crossfire had problems because of its anti-cheat. Though window capture should work??
Anyway, maybe jim can fix it if he has time to take a look :)

Quick edit: For window capture to work, the game has to run in window or borderless window mode

That used to be the case, game capture DOES work now without anti-cheat issues. There's just an image freezing issue as I've mentioned in the above post.
