Can't Capture YouTube Videos and Cannot Use Display Capture

I was trying to record a YouTube video, but the image just froze and didn't properly record anything. When I tried to use Window Capture in OBS, I just got a black screen and nothing popped up. Please help me out.

Hi, there. It seems you are new to OBS. The reason why you failed to record YouTube videos might be the video is encrypted or you have the wrong recording set. 

📝Follow the steps below to correct your recording set on OBS and try again:

Step 1. Open OBS Studio on your computer. Go to "File" > "Settings" to begin changing settings. 

Step 2. Go to the "Output" section and select the "Advanced" button. Set "Recording" with "MP4" for "Recording format" and "X264" for "Video Encoder". 

Step 3. After setting, click on "OK" to save it. Then, try recording YouTube videos again. 

After changing the set, if you still cannot record YouTube videos, try another professional video recorder like EaseUS RecExperts.
