Hello. I have watched your video and I'm having personal trouble with it. I have used Elgato HD60S Game Capture and connected them to my xbox, computer, and television. The problem that I see on my laptop is that after I have selected video capture device, for some reason the device list only shows me camera devices for my laptop but not showing me my Elgato Game Capture Device. Is there a way to resolve this problem? Let me know if you have received this message.
The timing of this video couldn't be better. Just bought an Elgato this week lol
Hells yeah! :D
@@CpawsMusic is there any way I can pay to help me setup my elgato? I can’t get audio from my console to my pc (obs) and I’ve been trying for four days now and I still can’t figure it out.
Love all your videos! They are so helpful and easy to understand.
Thank you so much homie! I really appreciate that :D
For Nintendo Switch do you need the TV?
Not necessarily, but it helps!
hey! hope youre doing well. recently i got a capture card to stream my nintendo onto my pc. it wouldnt work in device manager so i decided to reinstall it, but i dont know how to install it again after deleting it. ive tried using the restore legacy hardware, restarting my pc etc. any solutions/tips? (i have an msi gaming laptop if it helps)
Very weird! I'd try unplugging and replugging it and then try adding it as a video capture device source in obs
With this exact setup, i got 2 questions. 1. The webcam will be connected to the laptop right? So how can we add the webcam to obs? 2. You talked about the audio being on obs so the viewers can hear the audio (i expect that this wont have any latency) but what if i want to use a headset while gaming and be able to hear party chat and game chat, how can i ensure that i can hear the audio and my viewers aswell.
Yup! You'd add a Video Capture Device Source inside OBS :D
It shouldn't have latency, you might need an elgato chat link cable if you're not able to hear everything through the actual headset port. If you message elgato support then they can give you more specifics on that :D
Hello, thanks so much for the video made things easier I do have a question when playing on PS4 the audio from the game and the mic from the game connect through the capture card?
You can get a chat link cable for that :D
My OBS is not capturing any audio for the Capture Card. I am using one of those $35 ones from amazon.
sorry not sure about that
so my question is how am I supposed to hear my alerts and music while streaming console games? My headset would be connected to my controller
I believe that's where a chat link cable comes in handy, but don't quote me on that one haha, it's been a minute since I've streamed console games
@@CpawsMusic Can you elaborate on that please? Perhaps make a video? What’s a chat link cable and how do you use it to achieve the above question’s goal? Thanks a million!
im using the nzxt hd60 capture card and everything is connected correctly but i still have no video. capture card pops up on obs but as per the manuel it says connected to a device but no source detected.
Are you using the cable that came with the capture card?
Is the Second Moniter necessary im new to All of this sorry if its a Newbie Question just curious. The only answer I can think of is, its used for Higher Quality or something?
I'd definitely recommend it!
Thanks for the video. I just bought this capture card for my PC. I’m going to be doing call of duty content. Do I need a laptop if it’s just plugged into my PC? How do I capture the content if it’s just plugged into my PC without a laptop?
PC is fine! works the exact same way as a laptop ;D
@@CpawsMusic I plugged it into my PC this morning for the first time and the icons on my PC looked super off. Like it bugged out my task bar too. I opened up OBS software and it wasn’t reading that there was a capture card, idk if this card sucks or if I don’t know what I’m doing.
@@LordfauxTTV Very weird! I haven't ran into any issues using it at all - could be something else on your PC possibly
I current use my iPhone 15 with OBS on my MacBook Air but the video quality drops significantly after the recording is over. Will this help maintain the quality once exported ?
Weird! Not sure about that!
Thanks buddy!
You're very welcome! :D
I'm confused about the cord that plugs into your laptop from the capture card, is that necessary and if so what does it do?
that's the cord that sends the footage
@@CpawsMusic so it isn't needed for streaming?
@@stvn7051 yes you need it, it sends the footage to your computer so you can add it to obs and stream it
@@CpawsMusic i bought a capture card off amazon for $100 and it didn't come with that cord
or a port to plug it in the capture card
Thoughts on the EVGA XR1 Pro? Looking at this one as a cheaper alternative to elgato but something that will be functional for PC game streaming to Twitch and TH-cam
honestly haven't heard of that one before so I can't say :/
Obs can only hear my Xbox friends through Xbox party. Can not hear them or PS friends/PC friends through game chat? I have chat link cable and everything?
Try setting the xbox audio settings to come out of both headset and speakers
@Cpaws Music Can I get the 9.99 one you showed. Like it's okay to buy that for my Xbox series es and connect it from my TV to my tablet
I honestly wouldn't recommend it since the $10 one doesn't have passthrough
my audio isnt working
sorry not sure about that
same
Just a quick question, I’m hoping to set this up tonight and have my first stream. However I’m just wondering if it will pick up audio from the PlayStation party chat as well as the game. It would be cool to be able to hear me and my friends all together at once while playing and hearing the game also.
Not 100% sure for the PS5 but I know you can set the Xbox audio to come out of both your headset and speakers in the audio settings which usually works

The only issue I am having is that I want to be able to hear my game but when I turn on my monitor and output its almost like an echo onto the stream. I want the stream to be able to hear who i am in discord with and me be able to hear my game how to I fix that?
What if you set it to just monitor only?
Do I need to have a 3rd monitor or naw
Naw
My mic audio isn’t coming through to OBS any idea?
Are you using a mic directly plugged into your computer or are you using your headset connected to your console?
@@CpawsMusic oh I fixed it ! Thank you so much I plugged it into my computer
I just had to change the properties
@@Zbaby101how’d you fix it? i’m having the same problem
So I’ve got everything set up on a Mac (series X and El Gato Capture card ) When I add the Capture Card to OBS , under video device, the only audio I have is “Mic/Aux” there’s Gameplay, just no Audio and my Desktop Audio is also stuck on disable . You think it has anything to do because I have my headphones connected to Xbox ? And the audio is coming through there ? Or maybe I’d have to buy an AUX cable ???? To run from the Mac to the Capture card ? Help :/
I figured it out ! lol I went into my Xbox’s audio setting and moved audio to both headset and speakers and it sent the audio to the laptop 😊
Heck yeah!
Can you please make another tutorial on how to split audio with capture card? Or its just same progress like without capture card
Should be the same process :D
i bought this, and its working fine. but i cant get the audio from my gaming pc to my streaming pc, only the video can
Sorry not sure about that
My usb audio isn't an option
Sorry not sure about that!
i can’t hear game chat(comms) i bought a chat link in the hopes it will help
Try setting your console audio to come out of both your speakers and headset :D
Yeah my error is just my capture card doesn’t have that option when I choose custom audio device
Your option might be named differently :D
Hey cpaws! i've just came across your channel and you are so helpful bro thanks for everything, I haven't had the time to look through your channel really but have you made a video on how to make a starting soon screen for twitch live streaming, if not that's okay just wondering because i don;t know how. Have a good day!
th-cam.com/video/ZyntukgUg-Y/w-d-xo.html
for some reason, it won’t let me run 120hz on my monitor when i have my capture card plugged in. i can only run 60hz, when i try and switch over to 120hz, my monitor screen just goes black. any solution?? someone help please!
Check your capture cards specs to see if it can support 120hz at your monitor resolution
@@PaperFloss how do i check it? sorry, im new to this lol.
@unsecuredd search up your capture card online and look where it says its specs and what it supports up to. It will probably say something like 4K 60hz and then maybe 1080p 120hz (sometimes it may say 1440p in the specs as well), so if you have a 4k monitor, then you can only run up to 60hz, if you have a 1080p monitor then it might be able to go up to 120hz but if it was cheap it is probably capped at 60hz. Hope this helps!
@@unsecuredd some capture cards do sometimes need software to work properly as well, so check for if the manufacturer has some driver or software manager on their website.
@@PaperFloss on the capture card it says 2k/120hz
How do I hear party chat audio?
Try setting your consoles audio settings to come out of both your headset and speakers
@@CpawsMusicdo you know what kind of splitter I need for this capture card because I can’t find one
I have a question, I would love to stream my switch games. Is there a capture card with the lowest lag? My elgato has lag that is enough to completely throw off my inputs, or are there settings I can change to reduce the lag?
Which model do you have?
This DiamondTiger Capture Card in the video should be fine, it supports 4K@60HZ, 1080P@240HZ. The higher frequency means lower latency, which means you will experience nearly zero lag.
Can you make another video of copyright music but this time with multi streaming plz🙏🙏
It's on my list :D
@@CpawsMusic tyyyy
If on,y i had the money for one 🙁
:(
@@CpawsMusic do the cheap 20$ ones work?
What about the mic😢
What about it? :D
@@CpawsMusic how can I use it
@@Dxkon are you using a headset mic from your console or a usb mic?
@@CpawsMusic usb mic on my pc
@@Dxkon then just simply add your usb mic to obs via the audio settings so your stream can hear you :)
Can you please do a video on how to capture my game chat as well. I can’t hear my team on my stream.
If you're on Xbox then set the audio to come out of both your xbox and speakers
@@CpawsMusic I’m on a ps5 with the capture card in this video
@@SunsinTheGamer honestly not sure about ps5 since I don't own one, but you might be able to do the same!
@@CpawsMusic I had to get another usb mic and add that to my ps5. Once I did that I changed the setting in my ps5 to the mic and had to add a headset to my computer. There’s a lot of steps to it. Thank you for your help nonetheless.
@@SunsinTheGamercan you put the steps in order for me im having the same problem everything is set up im having trouble picking up game chat voice audio and my teammates
how do I fix my game audio it sounds choppy for some reason
I'd recommend contacting the maker of the capture card since it could be different depending on the capture card you're using
@@CpawsMusic I’m using the diamond tiger capture card
@@DeeboMean Weird! Not sure about that, I had zero issues with mine. But this could be a solution: www.reddit.com/r/ElgatoGaming/comments/9eke3q/audio_stuttering_with_a_hd60_pro/
@@CpawsMusic thank you ima check this out and see if I can fix it
@@CpawsMusic I fixed it thank you!!🙏
