6:13 the best moment

[@SabeameFantasy]

I still don't understand why 4K Pro was limited to PCIe Gen2 x4 instead of PCIe Gen3 x4 interface...

[@Juanmanriot]

You guys should make an hdmi splitter compatible with the 4k pro and the 4k x and all the other products in your line up

[@Spoodily]

I'm using the 4k60 pro mk2 right now but im upgrading for the 144hz hdr passthrough.

[@MichaelXboxEvolved]

Looks like its time for a swap! Selling the old, copping the new!

[@ee1yd]

yes CONSUME

[@r3miix]

Single PC/Monitor Setup using 4k144hz Monitor which Elgato would let me keep the 144hz on the monitor without it capping to 60hz?

[@ThomMurphy]

When can we expect some updates on wide-screen formats? Specially 3440x1440 240hz HDR pass through, is its supported at all? If so, what can be captured?

[@iFaFo_0]

I need 4k 240hz hdr pass through with 4k 120fps hdr recording ability. How many years before it becomes reality?

[@gomez8596]

With 1440p monitors being released this year at 360Hz and 480Hz, will it be possible to game at those specs and stream at 1080p/60? Is this possible with firmware updates?

[@gamingblitzed9197]

Can this product also capture camera or is it only for console and pc capture?

[@DryLandCaptain]

Ive bought one for hdr 60fps but i own the mk2 did i make a mistake lol? Also it sounds like the new external is better for 4k!

[@Spoodily]

Elgato is going to get so many returns. I think the X is better than the Pro. I want to pass thorugh 4k 144 HDR and capture 4k 60 to stream to youtube. The Pro doesn't seem able to do this. Unless im mistaken... Does a tile have to be green or blue? It seems an 8k hdr passthrough needs to be had to capture 4k 60... I just want 4k hdr 144 to 4k 60.

[@caitlinakafallen]

Does this work for motherboard with ddr5 ? Newer intel and AMD 7000 series

[@Phizzy]

Does it cause blue screens constantly like the 4K60 Pro Mk2 does?

[@xxmujinscxx3516]

I ordered the expensive product and I have I have to pay extra for the bracket?

[@3agl33y369]

it still uses the pcie2.0 link. even if it is a X4 link, its just a tradeoff compared to their USB capture card equivalent. at least the passthrough is better

[@pedrosepulveda8221]

new camera when?

[@Benham1]

What I wanna know is do we have to still clone our monitors and if we do does it fix the Input lag?

[@elgato]

Cloning your main display is not necessary for minimizing latency. You may need to duplicate/clone your main display to 4K Pro if your display had no free HDMI 2.1 ports. Otherwise, using 4K Pro's passthrough with your monitor's HDMI 2.1 ports will be lag-free and support the full 4K240, 1440p240, and 1080p240 options provided by 4K Pro.

[@DOBROVONAIR]

What is the HDMI 2.1 throughput speed of Elgato 4K Pro 48gb? and Elgato 4K X 40gb?

[@jamesjamey8596]

The news of pcie gen 5 hasn't reached elgato HQ yet. Nor has gen 4. Or even gen 3💀

[@Kougeru]

Does this actually support TRUE 4:4:4 and not the fake stuff?

[@elgato]

Yes, 4K Pro supports up to 4K60 RGB 8-bit 4:4:4 capture.

[@MrLeeNingVs]

I'm so confused. I currently have the MK2 but it doesn't allow me to play my PS5 at 4k 60fps with HDR and VRR enabled. Will this?

[@25JazzE]

I would make sure that the HDMI's are both 2.1 and not 2.0

[@saurabhverma2458]

More than 6 months and still no update on stream deck mobile Android 😢

[@Icy20]

One using 4k/240 monitor and streaming on twitch lets say and recording also on the same pc, will it be better to do a monitor clone to the capture card or passthrough? Cause with the passthrough i can only get 1080/240 signal on the streaming pc if i understand correctly. On the other hand the 4KX can give 4k/144hz on the streaming pc. Right?

[@Shadedwolf12]

but you cant even stream at 4k 144 hz so why do you need it? like yes the 4kx will be able to capture 4k 144hz but do you need it

[@Icy20]

@@Shadedwolf12i will give 4k/240 from the gaming pc and stream 1080/60 (MAYBE stream 2k/144 if av1 is widely available). I just dont want the added input lag and latency those things produce

[@Shadedwolf12]

@@Icy20 oh yeah if you use the pass through there is no lag like at all lol sorry if i miss read the question

[@ajaysourav]

I tired recording 4k 120 for ps5 but it it jus records in 4k 60 in obs. All the settings were perfect. I'm getting 4k 120. pass through though. When I switch to 2k 120 it's working in obs video capture device settings. But 4k 120 selected it jus recording in 60 fps. I tried dual pc setup for 4k 144fps Recording but 2k 144 it's working fine but when I switch to 4k 144fps it jus recording in 60fps. To be clear it's not lag or stutters it jus recording in 60fps

[@notelkz_]

I'm a little confused, I could've sworn HDMI 2.1 is 48Gbps not 40Gbps.

[@gster109]

youre right.. I dont get his info either.

[@RyanREAX]

It is but this only supports 40gbps

[@elgato]

​@@gster109 HDMI 2.1 has an absolute maximum of 48Gbps, but different HDMI 2.1 devices have maximums that can be lower than this. For example, PS5 outputs a maximum of 32Gbps over its HDMI 2.1 port. 4K X/4K Pro accepts/passes through max 40gbps.

[@MateiPCBuilds]

Hello, any idea how to fix the audio delay while using elgato 4k60 pro mk.2 in a dual pc setup stream?

[@RyanREAX]

Use a goxlr mini and stick 2 aux cables into it and then into the back of your pc in the audio inputs (in and out) ... no lag

[@Spoodily]

​@@RyanREAX yes. I'm using 2 goxlr. A mini and a big one.

I have one coming wed but my monitor is 7680x2160 @ 240hz I usually run it at 4k @ 240hz

[@edragyz8596]

So, if I'm reading this right? A 4K 120hz+ gamer is limited to 1080p capture? PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG. If I'm not wrong, W H Y? This effectively renders the new model DOA. Just to make sure we're all on the same page. Can this card do 4120hz+ passthrough, and then CAPTURE at 4K60?

[@elgato]

4K Pro can passthrough 4K120 HDR and capture that at 1080p120 HDR (or tonemapped SDR). If you are looking for 4K120 HDR passthrough and 4K120 SDR capture then take a look at Elgato 4K X.

I bought this, but cant connect it from ipad to pc/ OBS. i play on ipad and want to record/stream on pc! #elgato Should i buy 4k x? help!

[@elgato]

You can connect your iPad to your 4K Pro with the official Apple HDMI adapter. If you're still experiencing issues, please feel free to file a ticket at e.lga.to/help.

[@joyhappiness]

please point out that you cannot record 120hz+ without PCIEx16.

[@xxxgamingmachine]

Hi I just want to know can I play in 4k 120fps and capture in 4k60fps in this capture card??

[@elgato]

With 4K Pro you can play in 4K 120fps and capture in 1080p at 120fps. If you want 4K60 capture with a 4K120 signal check out Elgato 4K X.

[@xxxgamingmachine]

@@elgato thank you so much for the info

[@SirioAstarot]

Can this be used to receive audio/video signals from another computer?

[@The_Chad_]

That's exactly what it's for

[@SirioAstarot]

@@The_Chad_ but Is same that USB4 Display Port Mode.

[@The_Chad_]

@SirioAstarot I think you could an HDMI to USB-C display port cable, but it sounds like the HD60X might be better for your needs. This one goes inside of one computer and receives an hdmi signal for another source. Capture cards like the HD60 or Cam Link use USB interface to receive hdmi signal.

[@Nikko911]

4:09 not being able to input 4k 120 and capture it at 4k 60/30 is insane. not to mention that 1440p doesnt work either. sorry chief, but this is a hard pass for me.

[@elgato]

Sounds like we have the solution for you with 4K X which can passthrough up to 4K144 HDR and capture up to 4K144 in SDR. Take a look!

[@Exmachinagamma]

How do I enable HDR in OBS? To Enable Support for HDR Within OBS. First, navigate to File / Setting / Advanced and set the Colour Format option to P010, Color Space to Rec. 2100 (PQ) and Color Range to Full. Click apply once done. Find profile then select main10, not main. If your doing a PC game check for color and check rec.2100 PQ

[@353Studios]

Why the back order for the teleprompter keeps moving the expected shipping date further and further? When I ordered it was supposed to be shipping by Feb 11 to 14 ... Yesterday it was another date, now it moved again to 18 to 21 .... What's going on ??

[@elgato]

As suggested through Facebook, please reach out to support.

[@shinobeFire]

what about 1080p 360hz monitor users?

[@elgato]

We are looking into 1080p360 Hz support, however we cannot make any promises at this point.

[@ERP_Klim]

So I can't passthrough 4K 120HZ from my PS5 to my 4K 144Hz monitor, and RECORD 4K 60?

[@elgato]

Not with 4K Pro - You can passthrough 4K120/4K144 and capture 4K120/4K144 in SDR with 4K X.

I’ll wait for a revision then. Be greedy on the pcie bandwidth make it gen 3 instead of gen 2! Also, the 4k 120 fps capture. That should be the main selling point for everybody since we have ps5 and xbox series x’s What i see from now is 4k pro defeats the purpose of saving space and making not only entices everyone to buy 4k x, but also make a certain percentage buy an external usb that could make the same or expensive than the 4k pro. Not everyone has 10 gbps usb port yet

[@MrJ34N2001]

bruh, 3 years later 😂 i have a big Matrix for that and now that

[@yubrandomain]

I have a pro 4k and I’m not happy. I been dealing with Elgato support and it will not do a clear 240 pass through at 1440p. If I do any other HZ other than 240 it will be clear. Going to return the 4k pro and just install my 4k60 mk.2 Great cards but the 4k pro is not it.

[@Boostedbeard]

So this card can do 4K 120 HDR passthrough and capture at 4K 60 HDR? And the 4K X cant? White boxes confuse me lol

[@SabeameFantasy]

Nope. It won't work. 4K X supports 4k 120Hz/144Hz pass through while still records 4k 60fps SDR mode.

[@Boostedbeard]

@@SabeameFantasy Frick! And thank you.

[@CZAK_Games]

4K PRO VS 4K 60 PRO mk1 ?

[@Kougeru]

Curious if this fixes the audio drifting over time when streaming/recording PS5... And honestly, dropping the 60 makes this sound like an inferior product... Honestly, this seems overkill for PS5 since very few games are actually 4k60. Most downscale to 720p for 4k60fps

[@Spoodily]

I don't understand what the Pro is even for when the X is better and less money.

[@halfwaytillbliss]

Cleaner setup and if you don't have a 3.2usb c then you'd have much slower data transfer on the X (which limits recording output)
