      So I play Xbox and want to try streaming. However, stream can’t hear game chat. Would this work to allow stream to hear those I’m playing with that don’t play Xbox? Also if I do this, do I need a separate mic and if so do I plug it into my pc, cause I only see one jack on the capture card.

      @@PovElijah yes please, right now I just have a 4K ultra hd usb3.0 hdmi video capture card. Nothing special but real cheap, like 30$. Right now I have it so that 2 hdmi ports connect to the my Xbox and tv. I also have an Elgato chat link connected to my wired headset. Not only did it not stream game chat, but was also staticy and slightly glitchy. Would the Elgato capture card fix this? Headset was old, have a new wireless one but need and adapter to plug into headset, doesn’t have a jack port.

    I have been waiting for your review! I got the HD60x for my PS5/M1 Mac set up and it works great. Glad I don’t need the Game Capture app anymore because it was so bad 😭 the analog audio and HDMI automatically switches on mine without needing to go into the Game Capture app like the HD60+ made me do. It just changes in OBS for me.

    Great video ! My HD60x just arrived and I tried figuring out 120fps recording on Elgato’s app.
    I found this directly from their site
    “To record the full 120Hz signal into a 120fps video, other software such as OBS Studio must be used and configured to record at 120fps. “
    Sucks their app can’t do it , flashback 120fps recording would be AMAZING

      Mentioned VRR at the end, didn’t focus on this too much as the VRR feature only applies to people who have a display that supports VRR, which isn’t many. Also quality wise between capture cards screen tearing is usually not an issue for most displays.

    I've watched quite a few of your El Gato videos and in all of them you mention HDCP in a tone of disappointment that the feature is there and requires disabling.
    What I don't think you understand is bypassing DHCP potentially opens the user up to legal issues if it's turned off, so it's a warning more then anything.
    It allows you to capture content that's protected as well as voice chat of users that option against sharing their microphone audio, which is infringing on their privacy rights when bypassed.
    when you deactivate DHCP like the saying goes with great power comes great responsibility.

      Either will record in 4K, what matter is if you’re playing in 120 or not. If you are then get the HD60X

    Hey I'm pretty stupid, could you please clarify for me: can't you just put in a regular headphone in your HD60 X? Or will you need a chat link? From how you explained it, the chat link is for recording game audio and talking while on stream? Or am I just confused?

    • @MidnightMan
      @MidnightMan  ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s for recording game audio and chat from your controller. The mic will go through for your team to hear you only. You still need another mic for commentary on your stream software. You will listen to your audio from the chat link cable. You can see how that device works in detail here th-cam.com/video/U8zhDzLew7Q/w-d-xo.html

    Hi thank you for the useful information, but i have a question.. I have a late 2015 Macbook air, and currently have Elgato HD60 with a chat link pro connected to my controller as well a mic connected to my mac.
    my question is will I have any problems hearing/capturing game chat or party chat if I upgrade to the hd60 X?
    and will I be able to capture my own voice as well with the set up?
    sorry if i don’t make sense, but thank you again

      I used it fine on Mac, but it has limitations if you want to use chat link cable to record audio from controller. If you listen from computer you’re fine, just have a second usb mic plugged into your console so people can hear you

    6:32 I was hoping there was a solution to that problem without me having to use the chat link for less wires because on my HD60S there literally no latency and I play my games using the hdmi audio. I use my AstroA40s to stream with.

      I would just continue listening over hdmi to not have the wires. The latency is almost 0
