    Shiny hunting with my friends!

    Stopped into the Best Buy South loop in Chicago— I ordered head so I wouldn’t have to wait in line or shop around. I knew what I wanted. I used PayPal to finance my purchase, so it would be cheaper today. Although I ordered ahead, I had to wait in line because they were doing all of their returns first rather than focusing on the line that was starting behind me. Kept getting moved around even after my cashier was grabbing my items. Highly frustrating. Anyway. I got my items, and got home to set it up. It’s a pain to set up with OBS. not going to lie. The elgato app doesn’t do much and is for recording actual footage and this model atleast does not let you record audio. You need to troubleshoot every time you boot on OBS. deleting the audio profile to program it from elgato again and then monitor your audio in the settings. It’s very repetitive. It only helped me play my switch and being able to get my output to my laptop to my monitor. Now I can shiny hunt for my friends on discord with this elgato software and technology. It’s very niche and something I wish I had a long time ago.

    Great purchase

    Bought to record ps5 gameplay/stream through my laptop. Integrated smoothly and doesn’t take up much desk space. 10/10 would recommend for a starting streamer or if you want to record gameplay at a higher res.

    Great for ipad pro!!!

    It works! I purchased this capture card for nintendo switch game play recording. Im using it to create video game content. Please note, that if you are using this for an ipad, you must get a multi port with atleast 2 usb- c ports, one for power and one for data transfer. This capture card uses the ipad for power. Im getting about an hour of video capture per full ipad charge on my current setting, using camo studio app.
