Discord/FFXIV Clashes

Hello, ever since I got my new laptop and fresh-installed FFXIV and Discord, there seem to be some issues when these two interact.

1. Discord can't detect FFXIV as a valid game. This does not get any better when I run Discord as administrator.

2. My voice quality drops down exponentially when talking to somebody over Discord. This literally happens only when I'm tabbed into FFXIV, have checked with other applications maximized.

3. Attempting to stream the FFXIV window is futile. The stream quality is awful, and once again every other relevant app of mine works normally.

Game info can be found ahead.

Greetings fellow Eorzean,

We would like to further assist with this issue. Please provide the following information:

When you don't utilize Discord, does the issue occur?
Is Discord updated to the latest version?
Have you tried updating Windows using the recommended and optional updates?
Method of Sound Output: (Headphones, speaker system, etc)
Method of connectivity: (Wired/Wireless, HDMI, bluetooth, analog, RCA, etc)
Are you using a headphone or microphone (dedicated or onboard with laptop?) for communication? Do you have a dedicated sound card or onboard sound?
Have you tried changing any of the game's internal sound settings or within discord settings to see if this has any affect?
Does any error message/code happen when the issue occurs?

We look forward to your reply back.

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.
