Bug Report Multiple Monitor-Captures not working properly

I tried capturing a program (Lightroom 5 is definately not a Game so no Game Capture) with a "Window Capture", this did work.
Then I wanted to add 2 or more "Monitor Captures" (Different parts of the Music Player AIMP) of different parts of the same screen (as I only have one screen). So I added the first one, which was "AIMP Text" (Orange in Screenshot) and cropped it so it shows only the Textbar I wanted to have in my stream later, this did also work.
But when I tried to add the second "Monitor Capture" of "AIMP Bild" (Bild=Picture (german)) (Yellow in Screenshot) it doesn't shows up properly. I only see the red border of the scene editing around it.

Same procedure is testable exactly the other way, with "Bild" showing and "Text" not, depending on what I added first.

I hope you can see what I mean with this screenshot:

You cannot use monitor capture twice on the same monitor, you need to add it as a global source.

But this did work before I updated to Windows 10 and the newest version...
I also tried adding these two "Monitor Captures" under "Global Sources" first, and added them later, this also resulted in this.

Or do I have to add it somehow else?

That did not work before windows 10 either. You simply cannot use the same monitor twice.
You add the monitor capture as a single global source and then add that global source to the scene twice. Then using the sub-region to display only the part you want.

Believe me, it did xD I made it like this before, otherwise I wouldn't ask here and be so surprised that it does not work...
Whatever xD

When I use the same Global source, which is my monitor, twice in that scene and if I change the sub region of the first one, it also changes the second one... which results in a distorted first one...

The wide one was for the text again, and the other one for the stuff it shows on the screenshot... but as I changed it it also changed the one with the text... Am I completely misunderstanding it, or what do I do wrong? xD

Don't use sub-region, crop the source (hold ALT while dragging), sub region apparently applies to the global source.

Thank you this works pretty good, although it's a bit more complicated to what I am used to, but it'll work I guess ;)
