How can I check whether OBS captures an overlay?

Guide Q&A

Record a short local test with the exact OBS scene and capture mode you plan to use, then review the playback for any overlay elements.

The guide recommends testing game capture and display capture separately, since capture methods and multi-monitor setups can behave differently.

Do not rely on the preview alone; review a saved recording from the same scene you intend to stream.
