It's pretty great, and the software it comes with is also fairly decent.
The only issue with it is that its keyframe interval is handled automatically (you can't change it in the software) so if where you stream to has a required interval (like Hitbox for example) you can run into issues.
It works just fine with OBS if you set it up properly, should you decide you don't like the software it comes with. Or if you need to set the keyframe interval to a manual number in because of the aforementioned problem.

are you gonna be streaming or recording

Recording. Not streaming.

el gato hd 60 should be fine for recording

How well does this work with retro consoles? Also, does it look better when used with a Retron 5 or with real retro consoles?
>>
>>321023776
Perfectly fine capture card
>>321023983
Splatoon is basewise 720p iirc, that's upscaled.
>>
>>321023776

Can it strip HDCP?

>>321024358
>>too bad to just get a gaymen PC
Capture cards are WAY superior to using a program to record gameplay
>>
>>3210245
There are adapters you can get that allow it to connect to retro consoles. It looks...okay for the most part.

Ah well, at least I can record my Xbone with the Xbox app. It works really fucking well.
>>
>>321023776
Why do people buy capture cards just to make youtube videos with 20 views after 3 years or 1 twitch view.

Some capture card can't record PS3 for example since they lack this

>>321024665
No, get a splitter, just google hdcp stripper
>>321025145
HD Copy Protocol

>>321023776
Why though? PS4, Xbone and PC all have internal capture options.
>>
>>321025305
nice cover up

Good, but my old internal Avermedia capture card spoiled me. It didn't have a delay so I didn't have to have a two monitor set up.

Comes with an adapter in box to get around that. Annoying to set up and only gives 720p if you care about that The HD 60 is a much better product if you're looking for 1080 full HD.

Oh shit, ARK is out on Xbone? How much is it?

hd60 version would be worth if more games ran at 1080p 60 and you didn't want to record/stream your older consoles

I have the hd60 for streaming dead games at fighting game tournaments, but I want to start doing some older games like Fatal fury, do the add ons that you can by for this work for the hd60? I saw that it had a av option
>>
Do I need a Capture Card to stream PS3? What if I have a graphics card with an HDMI port? Will that work?
>>
>>321026583
Bumping for answers.
>>
>>321024526
I like it for NES and stuff. Try to use S-Video and component where possible. Retron a shit in my opinion. I like the bad analog signal.
>>
>>321027861
The original Elgato HD has this circular port for the addons. You might want to start looking for composite/s-video/etc to HDMI converters.
>>
>>321023776
I have this one, got it when it was brand new, and I loved it. It's was basically the cheaper Hauppage of it's day, but it is still great. I think the only downfall I can remember was needing a pretty good computer if you want to stream with this because the software is very unoptomized. If you're just recording, it is fine though.
>>
>>321025490
Might be foolin la migra
>>
it has an audio delay, at least mine does if you have two channels. so you need to record the second channel seperately and splice it together.
>>
>>321024747
But not cheaper.

Another point for the PC affordable race!
>>
For what purpose OP?
>>
>>321023983
That's literally how bad Splatoon looks

Wii U is a completely gutless console
>>
It's a pretty solid device.
Mine is really underused though, because making videos doesn't sound fun and my pc isn't that great for streaming currently.
