Software goes black but audio continues to play.

I just got my 3DS back and it looks and feels great. I started up the software and got into a game to test it out. I set up my OBS to capture the window, and after a few minutes the 3DS capture software just goes black (but the audio comes through fine). A quick fix was to unplug and replug the device (from either end of the included USB cable). After two blackscreens I kept the software in the front (I had it minimized or behind OBS prior) and it hasn't happened again.

Just thought I should mention this, I'll keep you updated if it worsens. Should I change the video settings? I have it defaulted to Microsoft Video 1.

The video settings are only for the record function in the capture software. If you're using OBS, it doesn't matter what it's set to.
