[@chubbythebear9683]

@MidnightMan Hey, thank you for making this video. I’m only a kid and I have basically no money, so starting a a KZbin channel has been tough. Thanks a lot!

[@rockbusteralex6048]

Because of your video I can finally start my dream of making videos with my friends, real hero right here!

[@DeltaPJ]

Hey everyone! Let me start off by saying this is probably the best review of the HD Capture Card I've seen. I like how he admits the frame rate and clarity is better instead of just saying 'It's good but Elgato a bit better.' In fact, this guy's energy and sheer great vibe made me watch the entire video through, and he could have been taking a dump on the capture card and I would have been fine with it lmao. As someone who has used this cheapo capture card for half a year about now, I have a warning for all of you horror game fanatics! Honestly, this may be because I don't use a splitter, but in games with very dark areas (my greatest example being Little Nightmares) there's a lot of posterization around light sources, and in other games (God of War etc.) I have to sometimes mess with the brightness. Again, this is probably due to not using a splitter, since the game doesn't enable the best quality without being plugged into a monitor or TV. Otherwise, I've had no problems with this capture card! Other than some tug-of-war with the thing for audio at times, which was always an easy fix, I can record most of my games at a great quality with only a few mediocrities in frame rate. I highly recommend it for anyone recording or streaming on a budget!

[@MidnightMan]

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the video and appreciate the insight you shared on this capture card.

[@domtube4783]

What problems do you have with the audio and how did you fix them? I'm having a lot of audio problems with mine.

[@Jeymez]

expensive is always better than cheap, and that's anything you buy. but expensive is the problem, because since i feel like the price of good capture cards are too overpriced for what they are, you can see why people might go the cheap route. but as Epos says in his videos, you get what you pay for, yeah that is the problem right there. you have such a big gap, and that creates a vacuum. And nobody in the community is challenging these major companies to lower their prices. now is Elgato good yea, but are they worth a $150 to $200 dollars, no. why because Elgato cards are not perfect, the latency is good even for one's that are usb2 like the original HD60. but there are issues that can be had, if you don't have the right setup for them. you can't just buy for example the HD60s plus and hope to call it a day, and that's where plug & play capture cards come into play, some can be good if you happened to find one that's decent, but alot of them are bad. if Elgato capture devices started at $99, the price would be a none issue, but as they currently stand there way too overpriced. why because they wanna pack a bunch of garbage in that people barely use half the time, 1080p 60 is all people need, unless you have a 144hz monitor, but unfortunately none of the manufacturers support 1440p 60 or 120, so your left with being forced into 4k 60 pass through to 1080p up to 120.

[@DrMattBug]

Ordered the cheap HDMI>USB 2.0 capture dongle for £3.80 on eBay / $5. This is for composite video, and I figured its easier and cheaper to digitise and upscale first, then use this cheap dongle. 720p at 60fps is more than enough for analogue to digital conversion. Amazing!

One of the best summaries how this USB captures card holds up against the "bigger boys" :D I would say I have an above-average understanding when it comes to tec stuff and I already read many articles about this capture cared, but I still watched the entire thing just because of your very entertaining presentation skills! Nice to see how you can build a high-end streaming system with lower costs and without being chained to more expensive brands. Thumbs up!

[@simplyspider4375]

I enjoyed the vid. Bonus points for putting in the added necessary cables and addressing the audio issues. Which need to be set inside OBS. Most vids on this product, magicly left it out.

this guy seems like the nicest dude. also the cap card is way better than what I expected for the price.

[@yashg5]

We just did a live event where we had multiple camera inputs, multiple laptop screen out being used simultaneously on Zoom and two separate live streaming setups. We used 6 of these cheap cards along with 3 of Blackmagic PCIe based SDI capture cards for the professional cameras. We couldn't tell the difference and it got the job done. The whole setup was a combination of cheap and expensive pro grade hardware.

[@Rationalific]

Thank you for bringing up HDCP. I think for many of us, that is an important factor to consider. There's no reason that broadcasts should be protected when people have had VCRs for around 4 decades.

[@100Bucks]

I think the reason is because you can re-stream the cable channels. If you know anything about IPTV. It's very easy to do this. Just look up IPTV or M3U if you don't know anything about this.

I think your demonstration should have shown the HD capture card at 720p. Which makes it 60FPS. It looked sluggish since they were both 1080p and its 30fps max in that card.

In regards to game audio with the PlayStation, the audio settings can be changed so you can use your controller headset and still capture game audio. I found a KZbin video that showed how to change it.

Personally I use a Rybozen capture it is on amazon it cost me $40 bucks its pretty good for the price it does not record in 4k as it says but you cant expect that from a $40 dollar capture card the is a input and output on it and a headset and mic 3.5 jack so it is a good the only thing though if you want to record party audio on ps4 or xbox you will need to buy extra cables but other than that it is a pretty good alternative. And a good bang for the buck.

Do wait. I cant use my headset if it wired ? Or will I be fine with a wireless a50 astro

[@turtleguy123r3]

On ps4 you can't use a headset device wired or wireless if you want to have audio on your recording. You can set the playstation to chat only and you'll hear the chat, but the game will come through your TV and to the recording. Also note that if you use the chat only feature the recording won't hear you or your party.

Do i have to buy all the accessories when I buy the cheap capture card?

So is it okay to not buy the accessories because I'm not planning to stream my gameplay live?

[@MidnightMan]

You’ll want the splitter so you can still see your gameplay on a TV/monitor. You don’t want to play just from the recording app. This still comes out 1/4 the price of an elgato

Im new to this kind of stuff, if I just want to connect my Nintendo Switch to my MacBook Pro do I just need this Capture Card and a USB-C adapter for my MacBook?

[@DustyAf]

Should work

[@benjaminchen4830]

Hmm. I have a mac and a switch, and my goal is to record my gameplay. I think plugging your Switch HMDI out into the hmdi side of the capture card, then somehow plugging the usb a in your usb c port on your computer (you probably have an adapter). From there I would use QuickTime and do New Movie Recording, select the capture card as the input (search yt for how to do that), then I would use my mac’s screen or plug it into my monitor (like normal). Hope this helps! (Not tested but should work 👌)

The 60fps will pass through, but for that particular card you’ll only be able to do record up to 1080p 30fps (even if in obs you try to do 60). There are other cheap cards that will record 1080p60fps.

[@hasanbasri253]

The performance difference might be due to the usb port, elgato hd60S was 3.0 while the cheap card 2.0 and of course the elgato is faster. Just an idea how about you do a comparison between the elgato and other cheap usb 3.0 card

[@benjaminchen4830]

Can you do a video on the elgato 4K cam link Game capture device⁉️

[@TryStrike_Panda]

Ok so I got a 35 dollar capture card and it’s working exactly how I wanted it. The only problem is that I’m familiar more to editing with sharefactory on PS4 and I know that share factory can only handle max 720p so my plan to to just record a vid on PS4 without the capture card and then edit everything and THEN when I’m done editing I will hook up the PS4 to the capture card and have obs record the sharefactory edited vid while it’s playing on sharefactory so that it’s better quality and I will upload to KZbin like that.

[@tharrimo4able]

Mr.Midnight man i have a question. I am one of those people you had mentioned who wanted to use this capture card with my over the ear mic to communicate and record audio/captured gameplay. I have followed your tutorial/ other videos online to set up an external Sony a6300 for video/audio.

Really appreciate the video. On the back of my xbox one, there are two hdmi slots. One is an HDMI-in slot, and the other is an HDMI-out slot. Technically couldn't I just get two HDMI cords, instead of three and the splitter? I need the one HDMI cord going from my HDMI in slot to my TV to play games. And couldn't I just use the other cord from the HDMI out-slot to the capture card and my laptop?

[@benjaminchen4830]

Well there is a difference between hmdi in and out (you probs know this) and that difference is that one OUTPUTS an hmdi signal and one INTAKES a signal. For me, I can use 2 hmdi cables bc i have a usb INPUT on my computer for the capture card and also an hmdi OUTPUT for my monitor. In my case, I only need 2 hmdi cables. If you can make what I described work, then you only need 2 cables. But for your original question, I think you still need a splitter. I don’t understand why microsoft would put a hmdi in tho...

Do you need two of this to use camera and game capture? Or you can you 1 for bot? By the way do use ryzen 5 3400g corsair 16ram I'm using the unit for streaming only, is this possible I can use this Game capture?

You need one for each thing you’re trying to record. That computer will work well btw.

Which/what kind of graphics card do you recommend? I am willing to spend a little more to get a quality graphics card if necessary
