    I had this exact problem with a new gopro and one of those new usb capture devices going into OBS. Thanks to your troubleshooting advice, I took a closer look at my micro-HDMI to HDMI cable, and noticed that the casing around the micro-HDMI plug was a little too thick to allow it to fully enter the gopro. I trimmed off some of the excess plastic casing from the plug, and then it fit like a glove, and I got a video signal in OBS. thanks again.

    Thank you. I had the wire actually connected but still had color bars, but I realized and that HDMI port was only input and not bidirectional. I try with my lap and it worked. I still had the bars, but after lowering resolution it came up. Thumbs up 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

    For me I'm trying to plug in my XBOX 360 to my PC.
    And sometimes it works fine and sometimes it just shows the rainbow thing and the xbox is working and gives the startup light and so on.
    I really don't know what's happening.
    Please help.

    Hey Zulf. So I've been streaming for a few months now with my cheap off-brand action camera that I purchased for about $50 a few years ago and it's been working fine. All I did was use a micro USB to USB cable that connects to my PC and it allows me to output 720p 30fps. However, recently I wanted to do a slight upgrade to get a better resolution image for my stream so I went and bought a cheap video capture card (1080p 30fps) alongside a micro HDMI to HDMI cable. I'm getting rainbow bars so I came across one of your videos on how to fix it but couldn't seem to find the problem. The thing that confuses me is that why does the camera work without the micro HDMI cable? If I can output 720p 30fps with just the micro USB cable, shouldn't the camera be able to work with the capture card? On the other hand, I can't really test out if my cable is faulty because it's micro HDMI to HDMI, but knowing that it had around 9k+ reviews on Amazon, I just assume its not the cable that is stopping this from working. Please help :(

      The main thing is not every action camera allows it, this video might help you understand how different models allow different video outs ua-cam.com/video/a5vtL4jEh0A/v-deo.html

    Hi, I have the same capture card as you.
    My problem is that when I connect the camera + HDMI cable + Hdmi video capture in OBS, I can only see the images that the card has in memory.
    But it does not emit, only the rainbow bars or the saved images appear if I give them to see them.
    only that.
    Could you help me?
    Thank you

    I have a normal mini hdmi to hdmi cable that I plug into the same capture card that is plugged into my computer. I'm getting the same rainbow colored screen and when I plug the cable with the camera (Lumix G7) into a TV, I don't get any signal. The cable fits perfectly both into the camera and the capture card. Is there a different type of cable I need or a setting on my camera I should change?

    I get this randomly. I have a Nikon D5300, an HMDI/Mini HDMI cord, and a USB capture card. My camera shows up in OBS but it just started losing signal for a second then back to normal. This is happening every time I stream now. My cord and my camera display fine on a TV and don't lose signal, and I have tried the cord and the capture card with a different camera with no issues so I'm not sure where the problem is. Can it possibly be with OBS?
