I am having a lot of trouble trying to stream games i have from GOG.

while some of them worked fine (Larry 7), most of them refuse to be seen by either OBS or Xsplit (Runaway 1-2, King's Quest, Monkey Island and more).

in the case of OBS, the program sees the game but only records sound, not image.
in xsplit, it doesn't even open in the game so it doesn't work at all.

old games i have in Steam (Loom, Fate of Atlantis, Last Crusade etc) work perfectly fine. their GOG editions, don't.

Has anybody come up with similar problems? Any solutions?
i've paid some serious $$$ for streaming licences and it drives me crazy that i'm having so many problems with gog games.

GOG doesn't carry Monkey Island, Loom or anything else Lucasarts-related.

Perhaps configure their DOSBox to use DirectDraw or OpenGL?

Edit: By changing the 'output' setting.

sorry, i have tried so many titles in the past few days that i have lost track on what is where. scratch the lucasarts titles then, i got all of them on disks/floppies and steam anyway.

I just tried Journeyman Project 1 and Baldur's Gate. none worked though.

how would i do that? i mean many games don't use Dosbox (Runaway, Baldur's Gate etc).
