- Why spend 3x the price on a capture card when this UGreen Capture Card can do all that but at a much cheaper price! An alternative capture card that offers 1080p 60fps streaming or recording at less than £20. It's easy to set up, plug & play & super portable, I'm gonna say this is the BEST VALUE capture card you can get right now!

My new favorite IT tool. Instead of having to carry a monitor, I can use my iPad and plug in client desktops into the iPad! Love it!
Awesome!
Ooo. What iOS app do you use?
I read about this in a Reddit post and as an IT-Guy I decided to try this. Happens often enough that I need a Monitor to access a Server. And carrying one around is no option. Salvaging one from somewhere else is a hassle I wish to remove.
Does this heat? Have delay?
@@ferdoustamim4447as far as I can say there is no delay. The device gets warm, but not hot
Thanks for making this video. It made my buying process a lot easier!
Great Review! Im looking forward to buy this.
Another way around the no pass through issue is to just use an hdmi splitter
Yup 👍
Well this convinced me, thanks for the information! Just bought one.
also forgot to mention something you can right click on the video capture there are using for your switch or game console
and you can select window projector and you can have a option to split screen or separate screen if you have a second screen and the last ugreen item was a ethernet cable. I got from them which is very good
Ooooh thanks for the tip! I'll look into that 😊
@@Colesygaming no problem, you're welcome
you can just right click on your video capture source and you have two options Fullscreen or Windowed and works perfect :D
ive been using very cheap capture card in 1080p for awhile before getting my hands on used elgato cause i cant justify the cost.
Good to know there's another solution, this one was just one that came to me while I was editing.
This with an hdmi splitter would be a good option
you do know that you can connect hdmi from switch to hdmi splitter and then to tv and this usb card which would resolve your issue
Hi! thanks so much for this video, it's what convinced me to get the same tool 😄 i'm planning on using it to stream my gameplay from my little retro handheld hehe. Altho, I'm not sure how you included the audio on your end. Does the 30hz not stream audio? 🥴
Im using this too stream from xbox,its great
Great content bro! Road to 1m subscriber. Godbless!
Thank you 😊 We're a ways off 1M but I'll keep going, 10k is the next goal
thanks man!
You review helps. Thank you for testing it out for us. Lol
Nice review mate. Would you say it would be good for a DSLR that I would use for outdoor livestreaming (football broadcast)?
Thanks.
Yeah it'd be perfect for that! It's definitely more designed to be used with a camera than for game recording but as I showed it can really do both jobs 😊
@@ColesygamingI saw the listing on Amazon and it says it's only capable of 720p at 60fps and not on 1080p. Can you clear that point for me?
Thanks for your answer.
Be sure to go to the ones I linked in the description they're the newer 1080 60fps versions :)
Can i use this as a usb hdmi adaptor for my desktop? i am using igpu with 1 hdmi and 1 displayport already connected but i need a 3rd screen. Can it output 4k 60hz ?
Nice. Thank you a lot, i would buy one.
This is actually recording the device at 60fps or was it 30fps?
I'm confused becasue theres 2 variant of the device
1 was 30hz (probably meant for the output or maybe its the maximum fps)
and the other was 60hz (maybe 60) is it actually 60fps or 30?
was the output on OBS when you change the settings on the capture card itself is it 1080p 60fps or 1080p 30fps?
You're correct there are 2 similar looking versions of this Capture Card, but one of them is only 30 FPS & this one is the 60 FPS version. Part of the reason I put the links in the description was to make sure I linked directly to the correct one 😊
Thank you, I've been looking for people to review the Card, and Finally I got my answer, It was 60fps and some variant which 40189 is at 30fps, I've been looking for people to answer the Question "Is it recording at 60fps on OBS?" Thank you so much man
Happy I could be of help 🙂
@@Colesygaming ordered the 60fps variant just like yours, and I'm really excited about it! I had a thought that it might be beneficial if you could showcase the 1080p 60fps resolution in OBS. This way, viewers can see the resolution it's capable of and also confirm if it's running smoothly at 60fps. I recently purchased 2 USB Capture Cards, and although they were advertised as showing 1080p 60fps, they didn't quite hit that mark it was only 1080p 30fps and 720p 60 and both we're advertised as "60fps" card at 1080p.. Just wanted to share this suggestion for to give your viewers a better understanding of the setup. Looking forward to your thoughts on this! also subbed for how great the review was :DD
I know that the ugreen USB-C 1G ethernet adapters tend to overheat, and I have this problem with the Elgato Camlink... for long capture essions, it just overheats...
How is the Ugreen in terms of thermal?
I haven't tested it for long periods of time. An hour or so recordings I've had no issues with.
This seems like a good alternative to the cam link
Definitely
Am I missing some understanding here ? It can capture 4K@30Hz HDMI, and outputs 1080P@60Hz USB-C... So 4K is reduced to 1080P...
This seems like a lot of loss of resulution...
Can this card not output the same signal 4K@30Hz to USB-C ?
So yes it can take a 4k input but it outputs at 1080p. So if for example you were using a ps5 at 4k, the recording would be at 1080p rather than the 4k you'd get on the TV. It is less resolution, no doubt about that but for the price this is it's impressive. For a full 4k capture card to record in 4k you'd easily be paying probably 8-10x the price
@@Colesygaming Thanks :) Then I understood correctly, and I understand how the price of i.e. the Elgato 4K X or the AVerMedia Ultra 2.1 can to some extend be justified 👍Thanks for good video 👌
I tried hooking this up to my Xbox but it says no signal on OBS 😢 any idea what I’m doing wrong?
Ooh strange, what kind of Xbox is it? I didn't try with mine tbh but if my switch worked I don't see why the Xbox wouldn't
I’m sure you could pair this with an hdmi splitter.
😯 that's a good idea! Possibly
thank you for this
No worries, hope it has helped 😊
Can you please tell me whether I can use it to play xbox on my laptop screen??
like is the input delay too much to play online multiplayer fps games?? It's urgent as I have to order today.
Thanks in advance!
I didn't give the input delay to be too bad at all, but I didn't play any online FPS or anything like that. I think it'd be pretty decent for it though from the delay I felt.
thanks a lot!!
Does this also work in mobile gaming?. I'm thinking of
Mobile connected to a Type C to HDMI Cable (Wire A) then connect Wire A to the UGreen Capture Card and lastly to the Laptop for OBS.
Thanks!
Ooooh that's an interesting idea, tbh I don't know, it's not something I tried. If it does work though that would be awesome! If I had the type c to hdmi I'd check it out
thanks mate i have a shitty capture card and i want to buy a new one and i have a steam deck and want to make my ipad pro as a monitor lol!
So I tried using it with my switch, by connecting the capture card to my laptop, but somehow the quality of the audio was terrible. In contrast, in your video, the audio quality seems perfect. How do I fix this?
Strange. Tbh I don't remember doing anything with the game audio, as far as I can't remember it just worked. Make sure you have the correct audio selected maybe in OBS?
@@Colesygaming I see
Which audio setting in OBS did you use?
@@supanut2000 hopefully can't remember. It'll either be just standard "desktop audio" or it'd be a setting in the capture card input
@@Colesygaming I see
I tried looking in the advanced audio properties, and there is no setting to change or bump up the quality of the audio; same goes for the source property for the audio input capture.
@@supanut2000 maybe check the audio setting of OBS maybe that's set low?
This is great
Thank you ❤️
From what I understand it shows up as a monitor device, right? On the laptop would it be enough if the screen was just set to clone?
It doesn't appear as a monitor. It's a capture card, so you would need some sort of software, like OBS studio, in order to record what is being captured through the capture card.
Hi i got both ugreen Capture cards but i cant capture ps3 games i also got a hdmi splitter still didnt work wat do u think?
Does it output 60 fps? I want to play my PS5 on my laptop as a monitor.
It does output 60 FPS! :)
My capture card is stuck at 30fps, tried everything but it's always just stuck at 30
Hmmm what are you using to capture? OBS?
@@Colesygaming Yep, OBS. The colors look really bad too. I think I'll return it and get a different capture card at this point :(
That's really strange 🤔 not sure what to suggest could be the issue tbh. The footage I recorded that I showed in the video seemed alright to you though?
@@Colesygaming Yeah, that's what made me buy it! Everything looked fine to me and the price seemed reasonable, so I went for it. Mine looked the exact same when I took it out of the box, but the second i plugged my switch into it and opened obs, everything looked.. off? It just looks completely different.
There we're 2 variants of the device, one was 30hz and one was 60hz, I'm not sure if the other one record at 1080p 60fps or 1080p 30fps, Mind telling me what model was yours? there was a 40189 model (30hz) and 25854 (60hz).@@nin52
This capture card is not compatible with a canon xa50.
Is that capture card related or camera related?
hello! Do you still happen to use this and how long did you use it for? I just got it and it feels like it heats up fast and it also heats up just by plugging it in the port without using it.
Would it work with steam deck and Ipad Pro?
How do I capture the video into obs? I cannot see the option
does it support 60fps on which resolution
1080 it'll do 60fps
Ever heard of a hdmi splitter geez
A splitter would only send the video to two places, it wouldn't be able to record the video though???
Yes, would work perfectly for playing the console on any other screen you want while still recording/streaming it on the pc without dealing with any of the possible delay/compression u get from using the source from the capture card in obs.
Oh you mean using a hdmi splitter with this capture card to output to a separate monitor as well as to the PC for recording. Yeah I totally understand you, I just didn't have one on hand, so I used the OBS source as an alternative. I thought you were saying you could use just a HDMI splitter instead of this capture card, totally understand you now :)
Was the switch a switch OLED
No it wasn't. Just the regular switch.
Thanks for the clarification I was concerned about quality. I have seen some recorded game play on youtube and it was not that great.. so I assumed maybe it was because it was not an OLED@@Colesygaming
Can I use this to look at movies from external hard drive to ”not smart TV”? Via iPhone!
just get a new tv
hi, can I connect my ps4 to my Mac air m1 as monitor with that?
I don't see why that wouldn't work
Any idea what iOS 17 app allows this unit to work on my iPad Pro?
Sorry I don't have any Apple products so I can't help :/
Capturino worked for me (If you mean displaying a console's footage on the iPad)
what is the name of that game at 3:00?
Mario Wonder
Omg!so much wordzzzz,so much talk...god good...for nothing...is boring listen.....make the point!!!
