Cpaws…I’m pretty good at comprehending these videos now a days that are NOT straight to the point but having someone like you is very refreshing. AMAZING VIDEO!! Thank you
Thank you so much homie!! You're very welcome! If you end up having any questions or just wanna say hi, you can ask me live over on Twitch www.twitch.tv/cpawsmusic :D
We use El Gato and works perfectly. The only problem is and that’s general for all cards i guess is that we are 2, on using xBox snd the other PC and we can’t record both at the same time unless we use the OBS in the PC and then synchronize in postproduction.
If you're capturing footage on 2 separate devices then yeah that's going to happen. You'd have to use discord for your friend to stream what they're playing so you can see both in say twitch or youtube.
I wanna tell you thank you. Thank you so so much for all your videos as they are easy to understand and you explain everything so nicely. My gratitude to you. Thank you once again and please keep them videos coming. ❤️
for older capture cards, i recommend gettin' a dedicated Internal Analog capture card and De-Interlace through OBS Studio because Streamlabs don't have De-Interlacing because i've seen HDMI based capture cards even with HDMI conversions can act very funny with older signals especially when u're still sending Analog Signal but alot of HDMI based capture cards like ElGato can be problematic to older analog signals because older consoles are Interlaced by default which can be a problem even if u try to stream in 60fps and it still looks like in 30fps unless u De-Interlace, because all digital based apps and sites is not gunna read Interlaced hardware in 60fps which it's something ya didn't mentioned in ur video
@@CpawsMusic ya welcome also tha HDMI conversion, i've seen many people use, it stretches it to 16x9 when it's really 4x3 content yea sure wouldn't bother some, but it bothers me when i tried it, nope i went and got a splitter and old school TV which i still use a CRT TV today due to horrible input lag with games like DDR and not every DDR game has calibration settings
Hey bro, My PC got R5 7600 +DDR5 32GB + RTX 3080 + 400Mb internet speed, I stream on yt at 1440p using OBS with a bitrate of 38000Kb/s but my streams are kinda blurry and no matter what bitrate or setting it's not getting better, what can I do to fix it ?
Are you making sure that you're watching back your YT stream at the highest quality in the preview video player? It usually defaults to like 360p or something
Quick question. I bought the Elgato and I was wondering would I need to buy a certain type of chat link cable or would any work for recording game and party chat?
Idk if you still read these comments, but instead of a computer, could I connect my console to my phone? Is it possible for me to record on my phone...
This might be a weird question. But why don't streamers use their TV to stream? All of them uses their comuputers with their PS5? I've a PS5 connected to my TV.... is it a smart way to stream from there? With camera if I don't want to use a PS5 camera?... And is it possible to connect the capture card by the TV and stream from computer from another room... I guess I would need to use a superlong wire then🤣 Just curious so many questions... thanks for the video!
Hi my son wants to stream his gameplay from his Xbox series x to TH-cam and be able to talk while hes playing. Can u help a clueless mum and tell me everything he needs ❤
My recording are sooo jumpy, idk if it’s a hardware issue or a setting issue, but every now and again or when there is sudden small movements my screen is just jumpy and jittering and every now and again there is like a vhs film effect rolling down my screen or black lines flashing on my obs screen and recordings, I might just buy and new £150 elgato and put my 4k no name brand from amazon to rest if that is the problem 🤷♂️
I have questions, if I run games off my pc do I need a capture card to just record? Also is there a way to record chat audio like off application like discord while at the same time record audio from the game? Need help
So Thanks too you i'm learning how too set up my streaming & TH-cam career, (every time i comment i thank you because you deserve it) i have a old HD60 with a brand new PC. Should I Upgrade or is it okay for the moment? Also Random Question I normally stream on twitch and download the VOD too edit BUT on Xbox it wont show/ pop up with achievements, would a capture card solve the issue and capture the achievement pop up and sound. ONCE AGAIN you are he GOAT
Can anybody answer this question … I have a hd60 yes the old one and my audio is delayed if I buy this one in the vid will that solve my issue I have a good pc and a good Monitor so I know it’s not that I just want to make sure I don’t waste my bread for some that probably won’t work ?
@ I have the hd60 the old one my friend told me it was for recording not gaming when I use Streamlabs with my ps5 it’s a little delay maybe a little more context can help you with what I’m dealing with
@@CpawsMusic so far the latest Elgato is iPhone-compatible so the only way to find out is to have both 🤞🫡 will try to keep you updated. or you may have a test video about it. Would be brilliant
@@CpawsMusic can't you just connect the canon camera to the pc using obs? then use the capture card for console gameplay (with the pc ofc)? I'm sorry if I missed out on something but that's what I'd do.
Hey I was wondering on my pc for a processor I have AMD Ryzen 5 3600x 6-core will that work? I saw the system requirements 6th generation Intel Core i5 CPU (i5-6xxx)/AMD Ryzen 7 (or better) I just don’t if it will work on my pc and if it doesn’t is there any other recommendations thanks!
So say I want to record footage from my Xbox (when I play on my TV), save it and then edit it later in a different app. Do I only need one capture card to be able to record the footage from my TV to my laptop?
Once you have your video capture source, “how” do you listen to the game and your computer stuff? (Like alerts and stuff). Would I just use an audio aux splitter from the tv to my audio interface/headphones? Thanks!
Personally I would just use my headphones for my pc and then set the capture card audio source to monitor and output in advanced obs audio settings mixer
This may be a stupid question or a question that you answered in the video and I just did not understand.... but! I am wanting to stream my Nintendo Switch games to Twitch. I would like the viewers to be able to hear my voice but not my friend's voices... in this case, do I have to still plug in my headset to the capture card or could I use my regular mic that I use for streaming my pc games?
am i an idiot and misunderstanding this? i need high spec pc in order to use a capture card for my streams? am i getting this right? because i've got a lenovo yoga and was hoping to use a capture card to improve the quality of my ps5 streams, i don't have the money for a pc so i saw this as a good alternative
Do they not have a device that allows you to capture your gameplay to an SD card or a flash drive rather than a PC? I don't have a gaming pc or a pc good enough to do this and wanted to start a yt channel (I do have videos but it's from livestreams thar I had to screen record and bring over and I can't do that with my Nintendo switch)
@CpawsMusic It'd be cool if someone made that and made a custom SD Card with programming to allow that. I'm pretty sure we have the technology to do that and it'd make a lot of money. Like, it can be like a capture card but it captures on the device itself and you can plug in the device afterwards into any pc and upload it so you don't need an expensive PC or a powerful enough pc to do that.
do you think streaming through OBS is necessary when you can directly stream from PS5 onto twitch? Does OBS or streamlabs just make your stream look more professional? or you think its required to grow as a streamer
Depends what your goals are, honestly it can be pretty difficult to grow if you're just streaming directly from the PS5, but if you just want to do it as a hobby then there's no problem with it!
You probably have no idea, 😉 but... theres a sizeable amount of people out there that actually know a lot about captures cards. I even bet that some of us have larger wealths of experience, years if not roughly a decade and a half ago with the dang things 😆 Anyways poking at you all in good fun. I actually saw the title and wanted to see how youd try and explain how or why we possibly wouldnt need one post 2024. It just feels like an imposibility, like duh you need a capture card if you need a capture card A/V streams to record themnicely/easily too hopefully. Luckily i use my consoles so rarely these days it doesnt really get to see much use.
Also thank you, i got a good chuckle outta you saying elgato was the golden standard. Reason being i literally had my hd60 break and die, and then almost immediately i had the same thing happen twice in a row in almost shorter succession but with HD60S cards instead. I feel like the reason we all gravitated to the elgato cards and kept recommending them even with any issues was more so out of frustration/desperation than elgato making a genuinely good product. We really didnt have any other reliable options near that price yet. As nice as they were to have, the problem was elgato wasnt known so much for good QC back then. I feel like it was more so the fact that they were the only game in town. Anyways after all that headache and bs i wound up just caving and splurging on Avermedias pcie based solution, The Live Gamer HD. Mainly in the hopes that it being pcie, faster, and going into my computer with screws where it cant be dropped, stepped, on or have anything spilled on it provided a lot more value and reliability. But on top of it all i hoped paying significantly more could also mean a better product, better materials. I actually still have that avermedia card installed in my system right now. And if i ever find another reason to hop on any of my consoles im all setup and ready to go basically :P
@@CpawsMusic Yeah for sure, just dont miss the chance if it ever presents itself. Id say i have nothing critical to say about the live gamer hd and technicality this may not even count but i remember getting the cards drivers setup or using provided software too update or do somethin i didnt wanna go without. I basically had to, to do this.
And that folks is why Elgato cost so much extra. General better product quality, and better (sometimes ACTUAL) online support like user guides which really do make just general set up idiot proof, etc that you just dont get with most cheaper capture cards. That being said their real time customer support is...eh...at best from what I've heard. Stil tho, eh, is better than none. Lol.
I just want to use my iPad as a monitors for my mini pc, for games, I’m so confused, I don’t care about recording it for now I just want a small compact travel way to use my mini pc to replace my gaming laptop using my iPad. 😅
@CpawsMusic it works. :) mini pc and my iPad as the monitor. This is way better than a laptop. But I wish I could play my pc games with the apple pencil
El Gato is too expensive for the little thing a capture card does get a $30 one and it works pretty much just as well my $35 capture card works better than an El Gato
Wow, that seems like...wow, lol. Damn. I did do all that work for nothing. I'm glad I only set up the one alert, lol. Man, there's gota be an easier way, bro! Lol. They dnt hav any apps/downloads for console? I mean, I've seen apps for mobile. So c'mon man, give a girl a break lol.
@CpawsMusic well I know the have something for console bcuz a friend of mine, who plays on PS5, recently got a bot that announces when she goes live---in her chat. I think its a lil weird to have bot say that in chat & in chat but wut ever lol. And hey maybe it's the same concept. I should ask her about it. And if not I'll prob go the other way, so thank u for all ur help/videos.

i have a question so if im using the elgato capture the gameplay how will i hear my alerts if someone follows me while im streaming?
Use headphones for your pc
Great video with awesome information, This explained exactly what I wanted to know Very simply, awesome content
Appreciate the kind words!
Do you recommend the Elgato H60S or the Elgato H60X ?
X
Quick question. I bought the Elgato and I was wondering would I need to buy a certain type of chat link cable or would any work for recording game and party chat?
That parts a little complicated. You might be able to do it by setting your console settings to come out of both your speakers and headset
Idk if you still read these comments, but instead of a computer, could I connect my console to my phone?
Is it possible for me to record on my phone...
You can but only with certain capture cards
Nice video i still need to set up my elgato capture card hd60x , still use in re mote play

Haha usually just personal preference! A lot of people like using 2 monitors so they can easily read chat instead of having to turn their heads etc :D

Is that setup good via OBS if you only have one monitor? I use a tv for my computer and change the source for my PS5. Could I still record in OBS?
I don't think you need 2, but I could be wrong about that. Unfortunately I'm not in my normal setup right now so I can't test it either :/
What about switcher? Do we still need to use capture card?
?
Can this capture card record 5.1 dolby sound from hdmi input?
Sorry not sure about that
Great content brother

The capture card might be the issue or a hardware issue
@ hardware issues mean the capture card?
elgato has delay in audio ... i hv the old one HD 60s and the new one HD 60 X ... both has delay ...

Question what would be your advise if i just want to use my imac as a monitor to play my ps5. I dont care for stream.
Sorry not sure about that
Can you go from computer to computer specifically a MacBook Pro to a desktop PC
Honestly not sure
I have questions, if I run games off my pc do I need a capture card to just record? Also is there a way to record chat audio like off application like discord while at the same time record audio from the game? Need help
You do not need a capture card. Chat audio should automatically be picked up by the desktop audio device in OBS
Wait so if I get the elgato HD60 X I don’t need a chat link cable for my party chat or game chat???
You'll likely still need the cable + set the audio settings to come out of both headset and speakers, double check with elgato support tho
What kind of lenovo laptop do you have ? I am have one too but idk if it is good enough to use for the capture card
I use the lenovo legion 5 :D

you can get an av capture card like the i-o data gv-usb2 and have better quality than an upscaler (besides it having dot crawl)

Man, there's gota be an easier way, bro! Lol. They dnt hav any apps/downloads for console? I mean, I've seen apps for mobile. So c'mon man, give a girl a break lol.
Haha I feel your pain! There really should be an easier option for console streamers but unfortunately it's very limited right now :/
@CpawsMusic well I know the have something for console bcuz a friend of mine, who plays on PS5, recently got a bot that announces when she goes live---in her chat. I think its a lil weird to have bot say that in chat & in chat but wut ever lol. And hey maybe it's the same concept.
I should ask her about it. And if not I'll prob go the other way, so thank u for all ur help/videos.
