    Heads up everyone streaming/recording from the PS5 with the Elgato 4K X. If you have PC with Windows 11. PLEASE READ!!! After spending a week trying to get my audio to work and capture. I had to go to Sound settings. Scroll down to Output devices. Click on Elgato 4K X and make sure you Disable (Turn OFF) windows audio enhancements and/or spatial sound. NOTHING BUT LOVE FUTURE STREAMERS!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊

    Just bought it last week using it with my PS5! Thanks for all your help and the dozens of videos I watched of yours. With my PS5 steaming setup I am using:
    - Elgato CamLink 4k
    - Elgato Chat Link Pro
    - Elgato 4K X
    - Beelink Mini PC, Ryzen 7 Ser5 Pro 5700U (because my MacBook Air wasn’t powerful enough) THANK YOU FOR THIS SUGGESTION IN YOUR AMAZON LIST!
    - Basic Tonar USB microphone (not best does job)
    I am new to streaming and based everything and settings from you. I am also part of discord and thank you for that also it helps me and I help others.

      @@Troyjl_3 Should've stuck with the HD60X based on what you have. The only real benefit of the 4KX is recording 4k120. The HD60X can do 4k30(the highest that ps5 games output), 1440p60, and 1080p60. Not to mention it will allow you to play your games at 120fps.

    Okay @MidnightMan I’ve found you recently and you’ve been a big help. The Mac streaming game is a struggle. I have a question no one has an answer to that you seem to have no problem with. Bear with me.
    My setup: Xbox Series X, Astro A50X, LG C2 Evo, 2022 M2 MacBook Pro.
    Currently using a HD60 X.
    Was researching and planning on getting the 4k X. Until I started seeing multiple people online having issues with the 4K X on macOS.
    People are reporting the 4K X is being identified as a 5Gbps device by Macs across the board instead of a 10Gbps device. Causing it to only capture at tops 4K 30fps. No HDR either. I’ve heard this from people using M1, M2 Ultra, and M3 MAX believe it or not. In your video this doesn’t seem like a problem for you. Unless I missed something.
    Please let me know what you think about this, if there’s a solution or if there’s not. Looking forward to a full setup video from you utilizing this card on Mac for some clarity if you don’t respond to this. Thanks for the content.

    • @NoCluYT
      @NoCluYT 9 місяців тому

      You don't need it trust me. Current gen consoles tend to only play 4k games at 30fps which the HD60X already covers. Also the HD60X is already capable of 120fps passthrough

    You forgot to say that the 4K is not able to record 4K60fps on M chipset Macs, since those systems are only registering it as a 5 Gpbs device and as such, maxes out at 4K30fps. Elgato knows about the issue for a while now, but still hasn't provided any solutions, so anyone who is planning to record on a M1-2-3 Mac, should stick to the HD60X.

    • @MidnightMan
      @MidnightMan  9 місяців тому

      What's weird is that yes, for me it's also coming in at 5Gbps but yet I can still choose to record in 4K60 and even 120. I'm working to get more info as to why this is. I could have possibly been shipped a card with updated firmware as I got mine sent directly from Elgato.

And video capturing the iPad and using my iPhone 14promax as my webcam. When I record it looks perfect and I can edit and post on UA-cam, BUT when I stream it is incredibly laggy! I don’t use a capture card and was wondering if that would take the lag away. And if so which one should I buy for my MacBook. The hd60x or the 4kx . I do have my ps5 and was also thinking about streaming that as well. Your videos have been very helpful since I am trying to stream with all Mac devices. Please let me know how I can get the most out of my MacBook to get rid of this lag. I was going to to Best Buy tomorrow to buy whatever else I need to make it run smooth.

    Hey 1st off thank you for your videos, very informative!! Question tho?? I have the HD60x and using it on a xbox series x. Anyway I went into the xbox settings and set it to speakers and headphone to capture my party chat. I use obs with streamlabs plugin and it did not pick up my party chat. I then downloaded the elgato software to switch the audio from HDMI to analog and that did indeed work, but the audio is super super low with everything turned all the way up in obs. My question is, can I just avoid downloading the elgato software, am I doing something wrong, idk can you help please??

      You can add a gain filter to your audio source in OBS for the HD60 X, that way it'll be louder!

    i take it if I am not going to jump above 2k, and i mainly wanna capture for youtube videos, which will be 2k 60 fps anyway, i guess i should just get the hd60 x ???? EDIT: I have 2560x1440 144hz monitors, and i am not considering going up in the near future, maybe not even in 10 years quite possibly... But yeah, if i am only going to record at 2k 60 fps should i get the HD6 X ? in the website does not mention recordings being higher then 1080p 60

      Not something crazy actually.
      A 6core processor either from Intel and amd and maybe a Gtx 1650 or preferably something from the rtx line like rtx 3050 up. You can also try the rtx 2060. Preferably 12-16gb of ram. Dual channel of course.

      you can record in that, not stream because streaming platforms don't support inputting that quality. The benefit of this capture card is to play games in super high refresh rates and resolutions while recording in those qualities. Stream quality will not change.
