    Does not work for multiple users

    Great concept. Terrible execution. If you have multiple users on your PC and switch between users, THIS WILL NOT WORK. Coming from support, this is an unsupported use case and will duplicate all audio with a slight delay. All audio will sound like it has a robotic echo. You have to log the other user out (usually with a reboot and force log out unless you know their password) to get normal audio back. Support was well aware of this issue as soon as I contacted them, but said it is what it is because of how they intercept the audio. This seems unacceptable to not have called out in any documentation. I’ve already had one unit replaced because it kept failing to be recognized multiple times a day. I had to unplug and replug it to have it show up. This is a large disappointment coming from Elgato. Usually their products are well designed and implemented, but not this one. I’d go with another product that fills this same niche instead of this product.
