=== Can I feed the VM directly into to OBS ? ===
Yes provided you're using a bleeding-edge version, [[OBS]] support is brand new. There is a plugin to build in the `obs` directory for this.
=== Why is my UPS (Updates Per Second) so low? ===
There are several reasons why this can happen, the most common is your capture resolution. At the time of this writing, the windows capture methods struggle to capture high resolutions under certain circumstances, as a general rule of thumb anything greater then than 1200p (1920x1200) starts to suffer from performance issues.
Another cause can be how the game or application you are running is configured. Because of the way windows integrate with the WDM (Windows Desktop Manager) running applications in "Full Screen" mode may in some cases cause a large performance penalty. Try switching to windowed full-screen mode, the difference in performance can be like night and day. Titles known to be affected by this are Fallout76, The BattleField Series and SCUM.
=== The mouse is jumpy, slow, laggy when using SPICE ===

== Windows ==
=== The Windows Logon Screen, Shutdown, UAC Dialogs, Ctrl+Alt+Del, LockScreen do not work. ===
'''Note:''' This information is deprecated as of 2020-08-12, the host now has a helper service to launch it at login with elevated privileges. Only the Login Screen can not be captured.
These screens are on the "Secure Desktop", Microsoft has intentionally limited access to capture this screen to prevent malware attempting to capture information from these screens that might be sensitive. There is little we can do here unless Microsoft is willing to let us sign the host application as an 'Accessibility' program.`
=== The Windows host program doesn't work as a service ===
'''Note:''' This information is deprecated as of 2020-08-12, the host now has a helper service to launch it at login with elevated privileges.
As of Windows Vista, Microsoft deprecated the ability for services to interact with the user's desktop, and as of Windows 10 this is enforced. There is nothing we can do about this.
