Affordable and portable
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Affordable and easy to set up. The free software that avermedia has is very intuitive. Had to return because the pass through supports 4k60f. I need to support 1440p60f.

Good, had couple issues
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The unit as a stand alone worked great. With my laptop, i5 ssd Drive, the downloaded software was very laggy. Updates weren’t user friendly. Biggest issue for me I could not get ps4 audio chat to work.

Great and easy card

If you are capturing to Mac - GET THIS ONE

I love this unit
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit works great. I have an older MacBook and many of the other brands required too much power. Works great every time. Comes with all the cables you will need, nothing extra to buy

Best PC free capture device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For those who don’t have immediate access to a PC, or would rather record gameplay without having to plug the video into a computer, this is as good as it can get. You can switch between saving recordings onto a Micro SD cards or you could always go to the standard PC mode which will turn in into any ordinary game capture device. Recording in either mode captures the video in 1080p, although those with really good eyes will notice the slightest difference in quality between PC mode and PC-free mode, due to the way the video is processed. (Very hard to notice though). It is absolutely recommended if recording without a PC is something that is preferred.

great elgato alternative
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are in need of a capture card and the elgatos are sold out this is a solid alternative. Does what it's supposed to and its simple to use so all around its a good buy.

Nice Upgrade of LGP Line
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I want to start off at the very beginning with the unboxing. The packaging and presentation were very basic and minimal. Maybe they feel the unboxing experience is not important if you are buying this. The initial packaging felt cheap and made me question the quality of the product, but then... I held the device. The first thing that came to mind when I saw it was it reminds me of a Tomberone candy bar with its shape. I find the design language a bit, out there, but if you are streaming it isn't seen right? Let's talk about areas of disappointment. USB 2.0 MicroUSB WHY?!?!?!?!?!?!?! 2019 is almost here and USB C is already making its way to commonplace. I bet if this port was USB 3.0 it wouldn't drop frames because the bandwidth would be better. The cord provided is actually a braided one, but shouldn't it be that way in 2018? Occasionally there are a few frame drops in recordings but it's more than useable. The software is really basic and advanced users may not even use it since there is OBS. Let's talk lag. The software has about a 1 second when using the ReCentral software. Software is very basic. The LGP2P really builds its case on value with PC Free Mode recording to SD Card. The software is very simple and minimalistic, too simple for my liking but scores high on the ease of use scale. Build quality is not a concern for me as this is a little red tank. Overall ease of use its main selling point using 1 button operation in PC Free mode as my favorite feature. Rubber bottom grips the surface to reduce sliding. You can use 4k passthrough while recording in 1080p. Overall, I really like this as a capture card because of its portability. This can fit in any bag and you are live streaming in minutes. Buy this if you are not wanting to deal with a PC when capturing. There are tools for live streamers using overlays too, so there is something for everyone here.

Love this game capture device!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to capture switch gameplay and it works great! Picture is clear and playback is smooth. I used it with OBS on a PC and then I switched to using it without a PC and recording to a micro SD card and both methods work great! Recording on a basic standard micro center 512gb micro SD card without problems. This product is built well and feels like quality materials that will last a long time. The only thing I think is odd is that you have to have it plugged in for it to pass through video even if you’re not recording. It’s not a huge problem, just a small nuisance. I highly recommend this capture card.

Easy to Use for Aspiring Content Creators
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is easy to set up so you can begin recording! My wife wanted to start creating content on her Nintendo Switch for Animal Crossing New Horizons and had no trouble setting it up and getting everything connected. One port connects from the TV and the other port connects to the console. In this case, the Switch dock. Once it was set up, she was able to begin recording with ease. On top of that, this product allows us to use the TV as the “monitor” while still recording. Definitely recommend!
