Set as default if needed. | | Blue screen (BSOD) on plugging EasyCAP | You installed the wrong chipset driver. Boot into Safe Mode, uninstall the driver, and use Hardware IDs to find the correct one. | | No video in OBS but green/black screen | Change the “Video Format” in OBS properties: Try MJPEG, YUY2, or I420.
