Fix it with Stella · Streaming
OBS showing a black screen? Your scenes are fine.
After an update, OBS usually just needs a capture-method switch, a GPU flag, or a screen-recording permission re-granted. Stella reads the OBS log, finds what flipped, fixes it, and confirms capture is working — no reinstall, scenes and sources intact.
Free. No credit card, no trial. Go is $5/mo, Pro is $15/mo.

Try this prompt
“OBS is just a black screen since it updated — display capture shows nothing. Fix it without losing my scenes.”
You: OBS is just a black screen since it updated — display capture shows nothing. Fix it without losing my scenes. Stella: The update flipped the capture method. I'll switch it back and re-grant screen recording. You: Scenes stay? Stella: Scenes and sources untouched. Test capture is live — no more black frame.
