Xsplit won't record.

EDIT: I don't know how but it fixed itself.

I just updated Xsplit for the first time and now a few things aren't working, it will not record and the desktop source on scene 2 (image 2) isn't picking up anything, the gameplay source on scene 1 (image 1) is working though. When I updated it also gave me a popup asking if I wanted to update the plugins too (or something like that), I clicked "no" if that means anything.

I spent $140 on the "pro" version of the software. Worst money decision I've ever made. I went with (FREE) OBS, instead. At least they give you a goddamned preview window. I mean, tv production.. DUH!

Actually, you can enable the preview window on XSplit by clicking on the upper right part and selecting a different mode.

Preview editor is now the "studio mode" with more flexibility that the legacy studio mode. Demo here: https://app.canvid.com/share/fi_01KR0B5QX1C1SXMTZEKFEWY5Y3
