On Windows, screen or window capture will display a yellow border

On Windows, screen or window capture will display a yellow border. To disable this, rename in the server directory and restart the server. This forces the use of GDI capture, which cannot capture D3D-rendered applications (e.g., most games).

On Windows, if your screen or window capture shows a yellow border, that’s due to the default capture method. You can turn it off by renaming wgcapture.dll in the server folder and restarting the server. Doing

this forces the system to use GDI capture instead, which removes the yellow border—but keep in mind GDI can’t capture Direct3D applications, so most games won’t show up correctly. It’s a trade-off between border-free capture and full compatibility.

Yes, that is correct, and just to clarify for other users reading this topic:
Please note the following limitation:
GDI capture cannot capture Direct3D / GPU-accelerated applications (most games and some modern apps).
WGC capture supports Direct3D applications, but Windows displays the yellow border by design, and it cannot be disabled programmatically.
This is a Windows OS limitation, not an application bug. Users can choose the capture method depending on their use case.
