Having spoken to Brandon at the beginning of 2021 I went and bought the mirabox. It doesn't miss a beat, I only recently upgraded to the AVerMedia live gamer ultra as I wanted to passthrough 120hz on my Xbox. So if you just getting into content creating and don't want to splash the cash you can't go wrong with the mirabox for a starter.
Love this!
Would the elgado HD60 Pro be compatible with a Wii U?
Hi, what do you think about the 4k60S+?
Thank you very much in advance.
For Mirabox, computer gave me "USB Device not recognized" error and OBS isn't picking it up. Help?
curious as to the recommended computer specs for streaming ps5 gaming .
If you are using a capture card your specs don't really matter as long as it's a decent graphic card they can take off cpu load like nvidia cards that has it's own chip.
What is your thoughts on the Unisheen UC2500H or now the new UC2600H?
Do any capture cards actually support zero latency video when playing through the computer and not using the pass through? I often prefer to have all my monitors connected to my PC, and I don't really want to switch around my monitors cords. I have tried a capture card that outputs video and audio to OBS but the video always has latency and I was wondering if its possible to view your game in OBS without any video latency, or if any capture card offers a program that lets you create a window that shows your console video and audio without latency? Not interested in recording for youtube or streaming to twitch, though I am interested in streaming to my friends in discord.
So through obs I have found you always going to have lag even recording pc games.
Can I use the pcie hd60 pro to stream from my ps5?
Sure, but it doesn’t pass through high refresh
Im thinking about getting a PC, should i build one or buy one already built?
If you aren’t comfortable building it, go prebuilt. No shame in that. You’ll get a warranty with it also.
Building your pc means you can typically get a better pc for the same price, so keep that in mind
@@DarkenedCyrus thank you!!
What would you recommend for even older systems like the N64 & Wii?
I have recently gotten into streaming and mostly play Apex Legends on my Xbox series S, I found a good deal on an Elgato HD60S would that work for me since my console only does 60FPS? This might be a silly question but I still don't fully understand some of the specs on things like this! Also, love your videos they have been extremely helpful on my streaming journey :)
Answering this in my upcoming video!
For a youtube podcast up to 4k, would the vivitar be the best option?
Have you tried it? Did it work good?
For cameras I suspect of you have a limited buget, for 99% of people, buying the least expensive card,. and spending the rest on lighting, will yield better results then buying a more expensive card wityh poor lighting.
100% agree with this comment.
I film with Sony fx3 I want to live stream some live battle rap tourneys all I have to do is connect that lil Walmart vicitar to my camera and computer (obs or what ever platform) and I’m streaming 4k 24f live ??? 👀👀😳😳😳.
Exactly.
@@DarkenedCyrus just seeing your response. Ordering now.
nice video, For MiraBox, I wanted to ask you if there was latency or input lag on the monitor you are playing on, I don't care if there is a bit of latency in the streaming on Obs(pc monitor), you can play the game in the same way you would play if you only connected the PlayStation to monitor with HDMI cable?
Hey I really need help I wanna make my own UA-cam videos and I'm an Xbox series x user what caption card will pick up my audio if I'm n a party with friends??
I have the HD60 X!! when I connect it to my Xbox series x to my pc, run it with OBS and start recording, it just freezes and continue to record with a frozen image. What’s the solution to this?
Do I need multiple capture cards if I want to use one for my webcams n other for console
Hey! Would the mirabox work with a nintendo wii?
If you can get HDMI out, sure
@@DarkenedCyrus thanks for the answer, im using the wii hdmi adapter! ;)
Are these capture cards good for Apple TV? I don’t want to stream, just UA-cam
Can you get the higher end elgato capture and use camera instead of recording console? For some reason I can't find this answer
Hey man, love the channel, I am having a problem with my setup, and maybe you can help. I bought a wired headset, the chat link, and the Elgato HD60 S+. I have audio coming from the headset perfectly fine but when I record it comes out choppy and there is absolutely no background noise to it. I tried the HD 60 X and had the same problem and I even tried adding them as their own audio input. The problem is on all video recording software like OBS, Streamlabs, Elgatos 4K capture. But when I use, chrome camera it sounds fine making me think it is a hardware problem. Can you help?
Wait ✋️ 3 mins then tell me a Walmart capture dongle records 4k @ 60 ......
Lies Lies like a republican 🙄
They do not !
USB capture output 1920x1080 @60Hz only no 4k
Explain how I’m doing it right now it’s the capture card on my recording rig, that’s recording at 4k 60fps.
Right, I have the exact one from Walmart, paid 20 dollars for it, and it does 1080p at 30fps and 720p60, I’ve tried it with a PS4, Wii U, Wii with HDMI adaptor, and a retron (NES clone with HDMI) and every input felt slow/laggy at 1080p and feels fine at 720, that is bc the Walmart card uses only USB 2.0, ignore that blue plastic bit that is supposed to indicate USB version, look at the pins, it’s missing the required pins for 3.0, and I’ve even taken mine apart and there is no sign on 3.0 support on the board
That’s crazy. No joke, it’s still on my capture rig grabbing 4K 60
@@DarkenedCyrus it may have a 4k input, but it only outputs at 1080p max, so you are only getting a 1080p signal into OBS or whatever capture software you use, and if you use the Walmart cam link for streaming games there is a bit of input lag, but not much, and it also makes text harder to see when the device that is connected to the camlink is set to 4k, while the thing is only outputting 1080p
I can capture 4K, no issue. Seriously, I’m staring at it in my OBS right now. Also, inout lag is on any capture card. Some suffer more than others, but you can’t have a 0 lag experience. This includes Elgato.
so does not the hd60x work for streaming pc games and on pc?
do you maybe got an alternative for europeans? I mean for the Walmart Cam Link.
So I have a 21:9 monitor and want to passthrough video form my console to a window on my pc. I don't want to capture, I just want something that I can passthrough video at 1440p (from a One X) to a window so I can multitask with other windows for walkthroughs or game sites. Will the Vivitar do that?
If you want 0 latency, I'd grab the new elgato HD60X that is actually on sale right now. You can u se 4k Capture Utility from them to monitor the feed from a window. Definitely more expensive, but if you want to monitor 1440p, that's the best way and to get high refresh as well. amzn.to/3EBmG2K
I was gonna get an evga xr pro will that work?
Cyrus, I got the red Mirabox, and I don't think it is saving 60fps videos. The video is a 60fps video, but every other frame is duplicated. Would I be doing something wrong? To check, I'm using VLC, and pressing E to go frame by frame on video I record. Could I get a sample of video recorded from yours?
Amazing that all the youtubers that cover the Mirabox always talk about the 60fps, but never show it working OR reply to these precise questions on the comment section.
I have the exact same product and IT DOES NOT get you a 60fps recording.
I just want to record gameplay and be able to edit on my computer then upload to UA-cam, what should I get? I’m on Xbox series S
He mention some in the video.
thanks for this video! amazing explain ☺
I want to be able to record my PS2 but this guy literally doesn't say anything about that so you know you get a huge dislike
Most don't play ps2 I'm not sure if it even supports capture card if it does you follow the same steps, why dislike a video because the hardware you are trying to record is outdated?
So I can’t use the elgato 60 for streaming on the ps5
You totally can, but expect that you won’t be passing through 4K and definitely not high refresh rates
Talks-a-lot doesn't show anyting
Comments twice and gives me double the engagement.
No ezcap 320/326 it’s ps5 1080p 120hz pass through it’s perfect I got it one
You do a great job on your videos to
Curious how much you paid for this? For the same price, the elgato HD60X and the Hd60s+ offer a few more features.
Awesome video
How does the Walmart camlink work on the new M1 Macs?
Works great! Literally use it on my work m1 mac mini regularly
@@DarkenedCyrus thanks!
I love your videos
Thank you!
When are you making game videos
Mr awesome how are you good at editing videos
How powerful of an encoder would you need to capture 1080/60?
Well? I’d say at least a Pascal level level Nvidia GPU for NVENC, at least an RX 580, or a 4 core hyperthreaded cpu from the last 10 years using x264 on Fastest preset with 15k bitrate.
You can do upscale tricks. If you have weak PC. Record in 720p 30 or 60fps. Now upscale the video Hybrid to 4k 60fps and walk away from the PC since you can't use it while it's rendering. Now compress the 4k60fps video with handbrake to shrink that huge file to easily upload it on UA-cam. You don't need the best capture card. Just do whatever it takes to get the video to 4k.
With regards to capturing camera footage at 4K 30FPS, can you recommend which capture card, be it USB or PCI express with a low latency when it comes to syncing with a external mic.
I've been using the Elgato HD60X and when recording into OBS with a camera at 4K 30 FPS and my external mics, be it USB mic or from the audio interface has a really bad delay from the elgato capture card so its always off sync.
I also notice this sometimes even with the Cam Link 4k and my 4k60 Pro. I think it’s just the encoding and digitizing of that 4k footage.
My Cam Link Pro has worked great, but it isn’t 0 latency.
What I’ve personally done (if I know I’m not going to adjust the content later in post), is I run a line out from my interface to the microphone port on my camera. This ensures I have matched audio and video from the go. Talk about having the SM7B go straight into my little ZV E10 as my main A cam for PC capture.
Used this on my FX30 as well
@@DarkenedCyrus So its not just my unit I feel is like this, I think very mild latency can be worked with but a huge amount of it is something else.
Running the mic into the camera is also an option to which I've looked into but the audio in from the HD60X is 16 bit audio and that kinda doesn't cut it where OBS does 24 bit now, would you know if the PCI capture card solutions have 24 bit?
Not off the top of my head. If you are needing that kind of flexibility, I’d just expect that you will be lining up your audio in post.
That being said, you can adjust for video and audio latency in OBS. I’ve had to do this before. Just do some test recordings with you clapping and check it frame by frame to get the right latency for your hardware.
There can’t be a set number as it all depends on your specific hardware and setup
@@DarkenedCyrus Yeah lining up audio is what I do or just record into the camera directly with an interface out which works very nicely.
The purpose was essentially to get a system to record directly into the computer bypassing the need to put out and in an SD card, not to mention longer record sessions and have a much more simplified work flow to use.
Sadly seems the hardware for this kinda sync latency isn't there yet.
Well, I regularly do what you are describing. The only time I use SD cards is when I’m doing B cams and moving A shots.
Adjusting for latency in OBS is a game changer. It takes a little bit to do, but it’s worth it. To add latency to video, just right click the video capture device and add a video filter at the top. It’s called Async. For audio delay, right click the audio mixer and choose advanced audio properties. There will be a delay box beside each source. Just add in MS how much you want to do. I start with 100 and adjust.
