It seems like you're experiencing an issue with OBS Studio not capturing audio from your Dish Network DVR via HDMI. This is a common issue that can happen due to a few possible reasons. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
Check Audio Inputs in OBS: Make sure that the HDMI audio input is set correctly in OBS. Go to Settings > Audio and ensure that the correct HDMI audio source is selected.
Audio Output from DVR: Check if the Dish Network DVR is configured to output audio over HDMI. Some devices may require a settings adjustment to ensure audio is passing through HDMI.
Windows Sound Settings: Verify your Windows sound settings to ensure that the HDMI output from the DVR is recognized and set as a default device. Go to Control Panel > Sound > Playback and ensure HDMI is the default device.
HDCP Protection: Dish Network DVRs often use HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), which may prevent audio capture. Unfortunately, OBS and other capturing software can't capture HDCP-protected content. Consider other types of connections, like component or AV cables, if HDCP is an issue.
Update Drivers: Ensure all relevant drivers, including GPU and sound drivers, are updated to the latest version.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, consult the OBS forums or support for more specific guidance.
Yes, you can run OBS Studio on Windows 7 64-bit with 3 GB of RAM. However, it's important to note that OBS Studio recommends a minimum of 4 GB of RAM for optimal performance.
I have just redownloaded OBS for the 4th time, and it will not record, only a blank screen.

The first thing to do is to select the source, prior to the recording mode. Then once the source has been selected properly, go to the Settings menu, and configure the recording options. Typically, you shouldn't modify anything since it works out of the boss in 99 % of the situations, but sometimes you have to modify those settings. Change the codec, resolution, processing, etc. Go back to the main window, make sure the source is selected properly, and the stream is working and press the Record button. You also need a capable PC of recording the content you use (video, desktop, gaming, etc).
I had issues with OBS Studio as well with the blank screen and this fixed it. Also, make sure that your graphical drivers are installed as well.
In OBS Studio, you have to define the capture screen. To do this, in the Sources section press the + sign and then choose the source that you want to capture. I strongly recommend using two monitors because it's easier to see what's happening on the screen. Once the source has been selected, press the RECORD button on the lower right section where the controls for OBS Studio are located.
