QuestionI want to add ovelays to my xbox twitch livestream. I currently do not have a pc so do I need a pc to run this?
Asked 6 years ago by Neon.
- Answer Yes, you do need a PC to run this as it requires a USB port of a computer and access to software that supports a capture card. I use the software provided with the capture card, the Elgato Game Capture software.

QuestionWhat laptop is recommended for the elgato
Asked 6 years ago by Jd.
- Answer I wouldnt recommend a laptop for streaming in general but if you already stream off your laptop and try to equip the Elgato aswell I'd be guessing you wouldn't be able to run it properly unless you have a high end laptop. Laptops will typically run you more on money than getting a desktop would honestly. You'd be look at close to $1000 if you were looking to get a pretty good gaming laptop. Main things you want to look at is the processor your rig will be running (atleast a 2nd gen i5 or ryzen 5) and the RAM and hard drive you would be looking at atleast 4gb MINIMUM and thats cutting it close and a decent graphics card, doesnt need to be top line if youre just going to be using it for streaming and not gaming.

QuestionCan I use this card for Nintendo switch and how do I put the videos on you tube?
Asked 5 years ago by Moni.
- Answer Yes we can use this for Switch, you have to hook to PC/Laptop while playing the game. The HDMI OUT from switch goes into this and the out from this goes to your tv or monitor. Using the software you can upload the videos directly to Youtube. This only records max resolution of 1080p.

QuestionWill this work with SNES?
Asked 6 years ago by Billy.
- Answer This will only work with devices that send their video and audio out over an HDMI cable. You may be able to do it with some sort of converter or adapter for your SNES. But if you have no way of using HDMI with it then it will most likely not work. The Elgato connects between your console and the TV/Monitor and takes a HDMI cable in from the device being captured (game console) and an has HDMI out to the TV/Monitor. Unlock older versions, this one does not have different video connectors.
