Would it be possible to add this as a feature - GraphicsCaptureSession.IsBorderRequired Property for Display Capture?

As far as I know, it already gets set. See

obs-studio/libobs-winrt/winrt-capture.cpp

Line 410 in 839461d

session.IsBorderRequired(false);

and

obs-studio/libobs-winrt/winrt-capture.cpp

Line 490 in 839461d

session.IsBorderRequired(false);

However, it's only available on Windows 11 (the version mentioned in the docs is a Windows Server version, not normal Windows 10).

[Dunravin]

Ah thanks I missed the Windows Server part and cannot run Win 11. So there's no hope for Windows 10?

[Dunravin]

I'll try and see if there's any other app setting the property to true because until I reinstalled windows a few weeks ago I never had this yellow border.

Correct, unless Microsoft changes their mind, the ability for us to turn off the yellow border is limited exclusively to Windows 11. It's quite frustrating as they announced the ability before they announced Windows 11, and then version gated it to Windows 11 only.

[WizardCM]

Could you elaborate on why you want this as a property?

[Dunravin]

Yes of course. When using Display Capture and the Windows 10 method within a yellow border is placed around the screen. This is undesirable (a quick search of the internet reveals I'm not alone here)

An option in OBS to set this property to true or false would be desirable.

I understand if any other app has set this property to set required to true the border would still be displayed but at least the user could hunt down which other app that was and disable it there too. (Snipping tools etc shipped with windows and 3rd party apps)
