EDIT: Capture card MUST go in your streaming pc! Sorry I didn’t say this in the video, it didn’t even cross my mind! haha
See? Easy peasy. If you need any more help just join the discord to get started! discord.gg/FqnxG8f
If you want to get your mic into your game chat watch this! th-cam.com/video/cAwbLDLTTwg/w-d-xo.html
Absolute legend. Thank you so much. Question: for the edid or edd yours is set to “merged” and mine defaulted “internal” should I change that? Also, idk if you have another video to discuss like how you use the line for your audio and stuff.
I think I have it set to merged currently, I’d have to look. If you look at my 1 mic 2 pc streaming video I talk about how my specific audio is routed as opposed to the video
I need some help please
welp.... I wish I came down here before I made my purchases. I was attempting to setup a intel NUc as my streaming PC. I installed the 4k60 pro into the gaming PC... not gonna lie mostly because I thought that's what you meant in the video. guess I'll try to return the NUC and get a lower end full desktop PC. that was a full 2 days full of stress wondering why it wasn't working properly
@@JordanKPaul the whole thing is ridiculous
OMG! You are the man! Ive been trying to figure this out forever! I wish this would have been the first video I ran into! Thank you so much!!!
Short, to the point! Good info for anyone needing a quick how to!
Thank you very much for the Awesome Walk though! Fast and answered all my Questions that other Good Vids didn't. Great Work
i'm a french beginner streamer, you're tutorial is awesome! thank's bro!
I’m about to do this and you have it down! My exact setup except I’m using the GoXLR. Thank you!
I did what you said for audio but I am still not hearing anything through my headphones on my streaming pc. The desktop audio meter is not going up and down either.
EDIT: Figured it out. You have to click the settings button next to the 4k60 Pro, press properties, then down at the bottom you should see "Audio Output Mode" then in the dropdown, select "output desktop audio (directsound)" then hit done.
did this nothing happened, must be something else for me
This is the most helpful video i found on yt thxx
Don’t know what you said that made me get this to work but you are a life saver
Your production quality is INSANE
Thank you still to this day thank you for this video
FANTASTIC video
thank you so much is working to me
great content :)
Hi P1xelPerfect. I have an issue with my 4k60 pro. I did the same thing as you. As I go to my streaming PC and download 4k Capture Utilty and run it on 1080p240 the screen is like green and flickering. I dont know why. Pls help.
How will this work if I have a 1440p gaming monitor & a 1080p other monitor on stream pc? Thanks
Thank you! Subbed, still working on these things but working hard at it lol
If ya need help hop in discord!
@@P1xelPerfect thanks. I’ve watched a handful of your videos. Going to test run later. If it doesn’t work out I’ll reach out.
So I am trying to get my monitor from my desktop to display onto my laptop but it doesnt seem to show up as a device. But my laptop screen shows up on my desktop when I try to do the reverse
Thank you
Nice video :D
Bro, I never seen how you connected anything to the streaming lab top or desktop from the capture card?
Thank you! Now I'm really interested in your OBS Settings/Call of Duty Settings, because your gameplay is buttery smooth on Twitch.
Idk if you saw my video but I uploaded a best twitch settings video as well!
Do I need to have my headphones plugged into my streaming pc or my gaming pc?
Thanks for the vid, in your Elgato 4k Capture Utility, your input EDI Mode is set to merged. Most guides I've seen they state to set this to internal.
Can you advise which we should be using?
you are awesome thank you!!!!!!!!!!
guess i dint need to waste hours on voicemeter. thanks bro this is much easier!
You’re welcome! I wanted to try and do the simplest and easiest routing possible for this so not using any unnecessary software!
Hi,
So I’ve got a 4k60 pro but I’m experiencing a couple of problem.
1. If I’m recording my games on the 4kutility there’s only my voice and no chat, no game sounds.
2. I’f I’m streaming my recording device is lagging or i’m experiencing frame drop on my actual stream please can you help me with this.
Cheers love your guide!
ok so display goes to gaming monitor and a hdmi to the "IN" on the capture card but what i want to know is do I use display port on my streaming pc or hdmi from the out of capture card and in to the streaming monitor?
Got my mk.2 coming in tomorrow.. have a 2 pc setup with a goxlr for my sm7b. Hoping the audio portion isn't too complex.
Hey man great video ! I just have one question, I’m also using a display port out and an hdmi to the stream pc. When i do this my game is very lagging and audio is horrible. My question is would my capture card in my gaming pc not be good enough because it is putting out two displays ? Or could it be something else ? When i use two hdmis and go pass through its a lot better quality it still not as good if i eliminate the stream pc all together.
Do i need 2 capture cards if I want dual pc AND ps4 streaming? Also I plant to ise jist 1 monitor that has 2 display port inputs and 1 hdmi input. (crg90 monitor with pic by pic).
Id like to be able to turn on ps4 when console streaming, and then just turn it off when pc streaming.
When i use this setup i can't change my audio to my headset on the streaming pc it just reverts back to the elgato cap card instantly, then seems to have a slight delay on the audio i'm hearing.
If i Ever see you in person expect a big hug and kiss! Its been 2 weeks of me trying to get it working and it took you 3 Mins to explain. Thank you!😘
Ok so i need help with something so when everythings hooked up and i launch my game it goes black for a second and normally u know how if ur full screen ur cursor becomes bigger well it doesnt anymore and whenever i press Windows key and task bar pops up my game crashes! Any idea what to do????
Hey man, great videos and I feel like I followed this one to a T but when I fired up Warzone, the audio I was getting was lagging..can you tell me where I possibly messed up the settings?
Where do I put the legato 4k60 pro gaming of or streaming any body help
so how do we capture the display from our streaming pc?? do i connect my streaming pc to the elgatos HDMI Out?? to the GPU ORRR?????????????
So once you put in your elgato in OBS, you don't touch the other settings that's listed in OBS under video capture device?
thanksc foprb ur help

Hi, m8 how you are able to change refresh rate on ''monitor'' Elgato? It's not possible on my it's just gray on resolutions and on refresh rate so it's not possible to change there anything.
I cant get it to hear the streaming pc, I dont know what Im doing wrong but I cant find out, Im using optical cable from goxlr in gaming pc and goxlr usb in streaming pc, what do I do wrong, please help
Has anyone ever done a full setup video from start to finish hooking up wires and then doing the programming and setting up?
Would be the most watched video on this subject period
I'm having trouble having the el gato pick up my friends voices when i play video games with them. It doesn't pick up them talking so my video recording is me just talking to what seems like no one. I have yet to find a solution to this and no one has any content on how to physically step by step do this. Any help?
i have dual system and 4k60 pro. i have not graphic card on streaming pc . can i stream with h.264 (cpu) only? ,without gpu? i have gpu only on main gaming pc.
got it to work, but seems quality of the game audio got lowered? any way to fix?
Do I need any extra equipment to connect multiple monitors through 2 pc? I have 3 monitors and will want at least one of them on my streaming PC. To be able to switch from pc to pc will I need anything with my cursor
hows the audio if i dont have xlr mic? i am running my audio on dual pc via voicemeeter and i cant change the audio to elgato as playback device i am planning to buy a capturecard because im having audio desync using ndi + voicemeeter. trying to find a solution or maybe use capturecard and with voice meeter. cant spend all same time for capturecard / xlr mic and audio interface etc
Why my 4k 60pro mk2 lopping the image??
how can you open 4k utility if you have duplicated the gaming pc, I have a monitor for my gaming pc and one for the streaming pc
You talked about discord how do you hear them in discord if it’s on your streaming pc, I use discord on my game pc but my stream can’t hear people talking in discord
I did all of this to a T except I use streamlabs and it wont work. Only way I can get it to work is in properties under my el gato and doing the direct sound option. feels like a slight delay though
What if you play a game and it using the res of the elgato and not ur monitor? I have a 1080p elgato and 1440p monitor but the game I play reads my capture card as my monitor and keeps downscaling my monitor in game to 1080p… anyone know how to fix this for a 2 pc setup please help.
Aye man could please walk me through how to do this ? I am having so many Issues with my dual pc setup
Whoa, wait a minute! OSB? How do I setup my capture card in sources on my recording PC? It comes up blank for "Video Capture Device" and my elgato drive was preinstalled by, assuming Windows Update?
Please help I’ve an Elgato Hd60s and stream deck with a streaming laptop and gaming pc, how can I make that work so I can stream and record my gameplay
magic
Hello, any reason why my Elgato connector is showing up as a DVI and not a HDMI?
instead of cloning display - can I use an hdmi splitter? I heard that clone display adds input lag.
how come i do everything and it’s all setup up properly and in NVCP (nvidia control panel) it says my elgato is on 240 hz but in advanced display settings in windows it’ll be on either 60-144hz and when i put that on 240hz also the elgato doesn’t pick the signal up bc if that’s on 60-144 wouldn’t it make the main monitor down scale to those numbers instead of it being at 240. plus both monitors are 1080p my stream pc monitor is a 75hz and the gaming pc monitor is a 240 but i’m someone that has the exact setup and works fine
I'm trying to get In-Game chat and Game sound from my Gaming PC over to my Streaming PC/Xsplit. Bonus points if you can help get my Woojer Vest to work as well.
@1:30 , for me my monitor is on the right and the elgato is on the left. My main monitor is always greyed out. When I play MW2, in game settings the only monitor it lets me use is the elgato because for some reason the elgato is forcing control over my setup. How do I fix this? Spent several days. my main monitor is 1440p 240 and elgato i prefer 1440p but im not sure if thats whats causing issues. WHen i make elgato 1080p, it does the same issue so ive been doing research like crazy with no solutions.
How do you stop sound from playing on your Gaming Monitor AND my Headphones... (I want headphones only and none of what you said works)
you know what would be really helpful if you added the same thing works for hd60pro or if not how to make it work
Elgato 4K60 pro mk2 setup at 1080p144Hz with cloned display, when I launch game in full screen or minimize game, elgato show 'no signal' for a brief moment 5-6sec, will appreciate a solution this issue. btw game pc has gtx1060 and 1080p144Hz monitor connected through display port.
Thanks
Where do I connect my headphones in this method, in my gaming or in my streaming pc ?
bro any workaround if i put my mic to stream pc.. means that i will only be able to talk to discord and stream... what about in-game comms?
Im my case, on gaming PC doesnt appear Elgato1080HDR playback device, what im doing wrong?
i have 1 question if i can use my discord in my gaming pc can i share the sound for the streaming pc? :)
So my monitor shows up on the right and my Elgato shows up on the left. Is that ok or do I need to change something
Here's a fix for a problem i was having just disconnect second monitor from elgato and you dont have issues with different monitor refresh rates and resolutions. And you free up that monitor for OBS and your streaming browser. Hope it helps anyone else having that problem
Why is it when i turn off free sync every thing disappears on my desktop. Then when I enable free sync every thing comes back?
hi
i need two pc ? one for streaming ... one for games ori is possible only one ? Tanks in advance
hi I saw husker using 1440p 240hz monitor and using dual pc stream with 4k60mk2. but there is no info or video out. doesn elgato know or can help me how to do it?
My capture card and my monitor are swapped and it feels slightly off can anyone help me to swap them around? I followed the steps and it’s showing how it was in the video
When I change my audio device to ELGATO, I cannot hear any sound through my headphones
do i put the cable in the capture card in or out
Hi, just saw your video. Before I finish ordering all my streaming equipement, I wonder if there is any gameplay audio delay/lag (say for competitive) doing it this way ? Since it has to go trough elgato and streaming PC which might be running a lot of stuff and in my case not that powerful. Thanks for the help ! Cheers
So there’s about a 15-20ms delay with the audio monitoring. It’s almost not noticeable, but if you are doing audio sync games like clone hero/guitar hero etc then you can’t do this method. I have since changed my dual pc method after making this video but it’s a bit more pricey
If I’m on a 1080p 240hz monitor with HD60S+ can I still stream 1080p?
When I do this my gaming PC and the game begin to get audio and visual lag. Any tips?
Bro help me! I got a dual monitor and mine doesnt work. Anyone
@p1xelPerfect
Duplicate displays will not work for HDR! How to still use the HDR option without duplicating these displays?
Got mine to work. On a single pc setup lol. My game crashes non stop though:(
So do u have your headphones connected to ur stream pc or gaming pc because I can’t hear the games when I’m on them
the problem with that. is there is a delay. when the audio is being sent from the game pc to the capture card. then the capture card has to process that audio send it to OBS then obs has to figure out what to do with it. its going to add delay. if u play any competition shooter. this is not the way to do it
how do i do this at 240hz ? can only get 144hz to show
I’m still getting zero audio from the game pc. The bar shows audio is moving but nothing is coming out I can’t see where it is tripped up at
Anyone else getting an audio delay through their headphones. I've tried so many audio methods but the audio is still delayed!
I’m running a dual pc setup but my resolution is 2560x1440 1440hz and I’m getting massive screen tearing unless I open up obs + Elgato recording software… on the streaming rig! Please help me fix this… it’s driving me nuts
would i be able to do this with the astro a50s?
What if you’re using the capture card that is not in the computer?
Nice vid bro I have a question to see if someone can answer Can I install 2 El Gato 4k Mk.2 Capture Cards Into 1 Gaming PC and Stream on 2 Seperate softwares (example Stream Labs OBS and OBS studio ) with 2 Monitors for 2 Different consoles (Xbox and PlayStation)
What if I have wired hyper clouds?
You outlined a problem that is common, which is the refresh rate being greyed out on the nvidia control panel. Why did you assume it wouldn't be greyed out if it was to you?
Thanks for all the help bro but how we can use the microphone on the streaming pc and gaming pc?
I’m currently making a video on this! The Tl;DR of it is three ways: have two mics/have one mic with two interfaces/use NDI from streaming to gaming pc.
Cool Video
I have a Yamaha mg12xu and a elgato hd60 pro mark1 older version and a shure mic how can I get my mic and my headset to work on both PCs if anyyyyy one here can show me how to do this or set this up I’m willing to pay dead ass.
for tha sound, it's better to enable stereo mix and set tha stereo mix to tha capture card, i had to do it with my AverMedia GC573 capture card
headphones have to go on pc streaming?
When I use 60hz everything is working, if i change it to 144hz sound is stuttering as hell. Any tips?
