Question/Issue:
Hello There! So, I've been having an issue where what I record, is recorded in slow motion (specifically 50%) and no audio. in the preview, gameplay is normal speed and has audio. I've tried lots of videos and the help section on ElGato's website, But I am so lost. I have an HD60 S and I'm trying to record on the switch. I have a Mac (Apple Silicon).
Device: HD60 S
Software/Version: Game Capture 2.11.14
Mac Version: macOS Monterey 12.3.1
Question/issue: videos are recorded in slow motion and with no audio. While recording, it records fine and detects audio. Trying to record a switch.
Sorry for multiple messages, this is my third day asking and ive just not heard anything. Im quite lost lol 😅
have you tried OBS instead of Game Capture HD?
Yeah, OBS on Apple Silicon chips are not compatible is what I was told by OBS discord lol.
I just dont know why it's recording in slow motion and with no audio. Everything else works for it. It's very odd lol
so here is your answer, and this is why it's not working correctly. you're lucky to even capture at all. tbh I'd suugest an upgrade to hd60x
also OBS for Apple Silicon is coming via 27.2. https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/obs-on-apple-silicon.133606/
With Apple releasing their first Apple Silicon by the end of the year. What are the plans for OBS on those systems? Do you think it’ll be a pain in the butt or a smooth transition? I’m a recent user of OBS but I don’t know anything about programming or coding. Has this discussion have taken...
Ahhh thats my luck lol. Thank you so much!! I never realized apple silicon did not like to play with others lol. I appreciate you!
you're welcome!

Question/Issue:
My HD60 S was working but it didn't say that it found my HD60 S when i plugged in on my new laptop with windows 11
Also am i at the right space for help with my capture card
how is everything connected?
I placed the HDMI in the out from my switch and then i used the other HDMI cord on the in section onto my computer
so that's the issue. IN should connect to Console/Gaming PC, OUT connects to TV/Gaming Monitor, and USB-C to the capture card, and USB-3.0 to your Streaming PC's Motherboard port. No USB hubs.

Device: Elgato Game Capture HD60 S
Software & Version: latest OBS?
OS: desktop PC, Windows 10
Question/issue: hello there, I have little knowledge with Elgato products, just trying to help a friend. been having some issues lately with game capture on stream, like artefacts and black bars. Wondering if the cause is the Elgato, the game itself (Resident Evil 4 the OG legacy game - not the new remaster with some "fixes"/mods) or some other graphic issue. might be a coincidence but for some reasons it's all borked and then after less load (like exiting a fight scene) it runs fine again, other times they have to unplug/replug the elgato and relaunch the game because the sound audio is not picked up.
they said the power of the elgato was kinda loose due to moving the PC around recently, I'm not sure yet if the issue is with the cable or the elgato host port. can this be a power issue or a glitch with that game? Please see screenshots below for behavior
Device: Elgato HD60 S+
Software & Version: Lightstream
Windows/Mac Version: 2017 Macbook Pro (MacOs Catalina 10.15.7)
Question/Issue: Hi! I stream on Twitch using Xbox Series S with my Macbook Pro via Lightstream. I bought HD60 S+ along with the chat link pro. The party chat works just fine whenever I game with another Xbox user. But whenever I game with pc or other console users their voices on lobby/party chat won’t go through my stream and the video capture gets a bit laggy. And so I thought it could be the chat link, but when i tried the other hdmi capture card, voice chat works. I also tried the Elgato software where I have to select the analog audio. I really wanna switch to OBS but for some reason it lags pretty badly and could only run not more than 720x480 resolution with this capture card. I would really appreciate your help! Thank you.
you’re not using an adapter are you?
it's not me so i'll have to ask my friend what's their setup. just to make sure, what exactly do you mean by adapter? USB side or video (HDMI to x)?
I can probably help with OBS, but ai’d have to wait till after my Dr. Appointment. I’m so grateful y’all used the template so I have the bigger picture to help your needs better. Thank you! 
since there are artifacts what console or is this a dual setup?
yes dual PC setup, their setup is a bit complex so I'll have to gather more details
do you think it has to do with the connection and not the elgato itself acting up?
could be the nvidia settings, or the cables. Make sure they have the streaming pc’s drivers, and bios updated.
I’m going back to sleep, but I can help more in a few hours.
Also thanks for using the template. That really helped me. 
I'll ask them to check that and if it's happening with other games too. don't worry it's not a hurry, I'll get back here in 10 hours with more info. could you tell me what was about the adapter?
(and thanks for your help)
I was wondering if they were using using a console, but since it’s dual no adapter issue. It’s either cables, or the picture settings in the nvidia control panel.
I see, yes dual PC. I asked them to try other cables too
(since they are not very tech-savvy I should probably ask them to export a config report with a tool like Speccy to get the big pictures of the 2 PC)
the other thing is asking them if the capture card let’s them change from merged, to display on the 4k capture utility software.
ok going to sleep now.

Question/Issue:
Omg that’ll be great! Take your time. Will be waiting!☺️
My Elgato 4K60 Pro MK.2 has no signal on OBS and my screen flickers when I try to view it on my monitor. I’ve tried multiple HDMI cables at multiple lengths and nothing is fixing it
This has never been a problem, but somehow randomly it stopped working
My "Monitor & Output" in OBS for my HD60X audio has been working great, but last night during a 4 hour stream, at the 3 hour markish, my audio on my headphones randomly got out of sync from the capture on my monitor that I was playing on.. Any ideas why this would just happen over time? I restarted OBS / my stream and it all worked well again.
Good morning, I just bought the HD60X and everything works fine BUT my monitor "blacks out" for a few seconds at random times. It works fine when directly connected to the computer so I'm not sure what the issue is.
[9:41 AM]
Oh...and I have a Mac
I have a HD60X
I use Streamlabs OBS but it happens even with ElGato's Game Capture and StreamElements OBS as well
I stream from an XBox series S.
I can help after my appointment.
yes, but I can help after my appointment
Game Capture HD doesn’t work with this on Mac, best to use OBS. I can help after my appointment. That 2 more hours. Maybe less if they finish faster.
Thank you, just ping me here when you’re available!
Hi @warped ledge , I am working until 4pm EDT if you want to talk, but if you want to just chat on here that'll be fine. For reference, the monitor blacks out whether I use OBS, ElGato Game Capture OBS or Streamlabs OBS.
Hi, I have a GoPro Hero 9 with the Cam Link connected (plus the GoPro HDMI module). There are many days that the GoPro doesn't detect the camlink (but it connects, since the USB is connected but without broadcasting for OBS, since the image doesn't reach the PC).
Any ideas?
so hopefully this is fixable. i found it so odd
ready?
I'll get to you soon. I'm also a Lady!
LOL...I'm so sorry.
No worries!
ready?
please dm me, so we can vc and you can screen share.
ready?

Question/Issue:
Ok i tried it our and it worked
was there any recommondations ?
Does anyone know how I can listen to Xbox chat and pc chat on elgato hd60x?
oh sorry, I was streaming. I'm free for a bit.
damn streaming right now, it's just starting again
what does that typically mean?
I'll have to wait till we have time to chat.
I just turned off monitor and output for the cc audio and turned it back on and it fixes it lol
like wth
does that help narrow down anything?
at least i have an easy workaround and dont have to restart stream, but still annoying
wanna vc real quick?
if not i'll be heading to bed, my eyes hurt. darn weather
can't sorry streamin rn
no worries, tomorrow then. 🙂
seems like others have this issue too. same thing described here https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/issues/3664
do you know if the captures card work with the google pixel devices ?
Does anyone know how I can listen to Xbox chat and pc chat at the same time while being able to talk worth my mic?
I plugged in my HD 60 S after a long time of no use and can’t get to capture my PS4 even though I have disabled enable HDCP, any ideas? It is showing on my TV but not OBS
not sure as an adapter would be needed.
is the xbox chat discord, or no?
how are your cables routed
Nah I want to be able to hear my pc audio and my Xbox audio from one headset
chatlink, or chat link pro would be ideal then.
Two HDMI cables one in one and out, and the power cord to the computer. The Elgato software is picking it up but not OBS
are you running both software at the same time?
I have chat link pro but I can’t hear both audio
is the audio in analogue?
with a chatlink/pro audio should be analogue
I have the HD60 S 
this is pretty much what i'm doing. in obs monitoring and outputting my capture card, monitoring and outputting my deskop from pc, and have my wireless headphones connected to my PC
talking to buddies in game by using discord voice chat on pc, and my buddies on console join the same voice chat from console
chat link + wired headphones def seems like the best option though, though you have to have wired headphones, and then a separate mic for pc
Hallo has some one a idea how i can fix this 🙂
I use my HD60 PRO in my Streaming PC.
I have a DualSetup, so my HDMI from Gaming goes into the Elgato Streaming PC.
so this week i found a problem: if i use something like Project64 (N64 Emulator) there is only a Blackscreen if i play this in Fullscreen, but Project64 dosn't provide a borderless option so i only can see it with Window mode :/
thanks for the solution and ideas 
I tried doing that but I have so much delay in sound
Even tho I have hd60x
he is it possible if I can use 2 HD60 X for different systems for one PC?
i am currently having an audio issue - hd60s+ with goxlr, im getting no audio, use to get audio, on the website it says to download a driver - i try to download it, get to the last step of installation and it says cant find the hardware supported for this driver, what else can i do to get this working again?
so i use the chat link pro to stream from ps5 to my pc, does anyone have any recommendations on what type of headset to use? i currently use the steel series 7p and i want to upgrade just not sure what headset would work with the chat link pro

Question/Issue: ive watched video after video trying to get this thing to capture my screen and put it onto 4k utility on my other pc. no matter which method i try to get this to capture i just get a black screen on 4k utility. ive tried passthrough with hdmi 2.0, ive tried projection from obs and the list goes on. i dont know what to do to fix this. its just a black screen, not a no signal screen or error or anything like that just black. can someone please help?
hey there, we figured it was an issue with that game only during some sequences. no issue with other games.
btw the game runs just fine on their monitor, it's the way it's captured with elgato that's glitchy, but no big deal. RE4 legacy is very broken
did you make 2 sources, 1 audio, and one video?
is this an emulator, or an actual game on console?
I can help in about 1-2 hours.
it's the actual game (old one, not the Remaster), on PC
any that has the aux cable to go in.
that card should be able to be in analog for the audio
Can really help with emulators, as they aren’t something that can be troubleshooted. Dual PC, other than the emulator, does picture and sound come through?
should be able too, as long as your pc has the power bandwidth to do so.
not sure about the goxlr, but what are your audio settings for the card on your pc?
okay!
ok try this, and see if your settings match https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049800232-PC-Game-Recording-with-Elgato-Game-Capture-4K60-Pro-MK-2-Setup
Idk how
in obs, you create 2 sources
Issue: camera too far away from my PC, USB extension wont allow data passthrough at 4k. 720p is very laggy. Cam link installed directly to the PC works perfect at 4k. so is there a USB extension that i can buy to support the data .. or will a 15ft HDMI work? or just rearrange everything
this should be in #camera-prompter
Why? I'm not using an elgato camera. I'm using an elgato cam link 4k.
yeah, that’s for the camera.
I have a question for anyone who might use a card for ps56
cause I'm struggling to figurr out something
yeah sound and Picture are here but if i enter the fullscreen its only Black ^^

Hello, I have now aquired an oculus rift and an hd60s... hd60s doesnt seems to read my oculus rift when its connected
i reinstalled both
reconnected both
i heard about some hdcp stuff
is it possible?
i would love to stream sunday so if possible h elp 😭 i see people unistalling "displaylink" but find none
that is beyond my scope as I’m not sure it likes emulators.
It is indeed a
HDCP stuff as the 7 red lights shows up when I connect the Oculus Rift CV1 but I can't seems to find any way to unactivate it.
Hey guys, I could do with a little help if that's alright. I'm using an elgato facecam, yesterday I enable background blur within the camera hub, worked great. Today, it's not working in OBS (no blur) or Twitch Studio (no video). I absolutely love this effect and want to make the most out of it, but it's slowing things down right now. Help me please xxx
proof of the blur working in OBS yesterday (ignore my tech support face)
I brought this to OBS and they told me to bring it to you
not sure on oculus, but I'll see if I can find something.
this is best answered in #camera-prompter
didnt notice that one, tyty
Has there been any fix for the HD60X audio stutter issue when using the 4K Capture Utility?
not that I'm aware of, but did you update the firmware?
That was the first thing I did, somehow seemed to get worse.
what about using OBS?
The stutter isn't as obvious but It's still there for me.
in OBS you can make 2 sources 1 video and mute it, and 1 audio input and monitor and output the audio.
so I've added 1x Video Capture Device and 1x Audio Capture Device
I'm still hearing a stutter
you have the 4k capture utility closed?
Yep..
(deleted to check the rules first)
The weird thing is, If I have the audio through Wave Link It's absolutely fine. The second any app is involved.. stutter
Currently working on a video right now. However, usually that fixes the crackle.
i don't route my capture card audio through wavelink, but if you are with no issues, you can pull wavelink in as an audio output for the audio, and keep the video muted. see if that helps.
I only have mine done that way due to the Stream Deck+. But nothing I do, whether It's adding audio + video in OBS, makes any difference. The second I open an app to stream it from, or display it.. the stutter appears. It's weird.
in wavelink you can go to advanced and change the buffer. see if that helps
HD60X here, just set it up, updated the firmware and now I’m not getting a signal… it’s feeding audio but there’s no video. I’m seeing ppl say oh try a different usb c to a, but it was working fine before I updated fw. Any ideas on how to rollback the device fw or a file?
unplug the device for 1 min, and try a different usb 3.0 port on your mobo
Can't see the buffer having any effect on a crackling noise.
i've never encountered the issues you're having with audio as the work arounds usually work. I'd suggestion opening a ticket with #official-tech-support

now im confused how to set it to 1440p 120
got it gang, last night this thing just didnt wanna work with me.
I unplugged it from the USB port, plugged it back in the same one.. suddenly no crackle.
that's how I have both my ps5 and xbox series x. 1440p 120hz
ok Y'all, glad I could help but I gotta focus on my video. I's almost rec. time.
make sure to do this, and reboot too https://streamdecklabs.com/🧯-how-to-disable-windows-10-11s-usb-selective-suspend-setting/

whenever I try to set my elgato HD60X up to my switch to record on my pc the video freezes and it disconnects from my computer and then reconnects rapidly before showing video for a few seconds and repeating the process how do i fix this
are you using a usb 3.0 pot on your streaming pc's motherboard?
the only problem with this is I dont know if I am
i was watching a video and it said they were dark blue
all of mine are grey tho
how can i tell
sounds like 2.0 have you check your mobo manufacturer to make sure?
its the tomohawk b450 max
pretty sure
it should let you know on the website
it doesent say
im not sure what to do
i cant really describve the situation
is a 3.2 plug ok?

IT WORKS THANK YOU
ive been trying to get it to work since like 5 its been 6 hours
I’m glad it worked. I had a hunch it was the power.
I seem to be having an audio desync between obs and hd60x capture card not sure how to fix this 🤔
I've tried all of these methods and settings. It only shows a black screen on 4k capture utility. I can't get it to do anything else
it will go from saying no signal at first straight to a black screen. ill change something, no signal, back to black screen
Need help, so I am trying to connect my capture card to my pc which semi works. So I have it plugged into the computer. My xbox is going into the capture card then out into my monitor. It displays on my monitor when I plug it in but not on streamlabs or the 4k capture app. Any tips?
hey guys!! how to get the Audio from PC 1 to PC 2 via Elgato HD60X ? using dual setup for streaming
hi I saw husker using 1440p 240hz monitor and using dual pc stream with 4k60mk2. but there is no info or video out. doesn elgato know or can help me how to do it?
Same process for the xbox too. https://youtu.be/xm_uTgN_cms
I made a video after stumbling on this setup while helping someone with a duel PC setup on Windows 11. I couldn't resist making this video to help those who wanted to do 1440p 120Hz passthrough with the elgato 4K60Pro MK.2 capture card on Windows 11. One thing I forgot to mention in the video was the resolution on your PS5 must be set to 1440p, ...
Ok, I decided to make a video on the refresh rates and how easy it is to change them using an elgato 4K60Pro MK.2 capture card that pass-through the input, but per using OBS, via streaming, I can output 1080p 60fps per my setup. Sadly I didn't have a PS5 game to show Y'all, as currently, it's only FPS games that take advantage of the 1080p 120hz...
Hey everyone! Just upgraded my computer, and just about everything survived the transfer over... except for my Elgato 4k60pro capture card breaking OBS lol
Im not sure if I did something wrong with the display cloning thing, but now in OBS (& the 4k capture utility tool) it isnt recognized, it just shows a black screen in the video preview, and bringing up the layers properties instantly makes OBS stop responding and crash.
Anyone know what a good solution to this might be?
see if following this will help. https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049800232-PC-Game-Recording-with-Elgato-Game-Capture-4K60-Pro-MK-2-Setup
Funny enough that was the first thing I went to for troubleshooting. For some reason the 4k capture utility only launches when I run it as administrator, and it doesnt have the same menu settings as shown in the pic
The 4k60pro also isnt recognized on that list, but it's clearly recognized to the System as it shows up in the Display Settings
maybe uninstall, and reinstall the software.
I think in my weird file updating from my old PC to my current one something got missed, cuz I reinstalled Drivers for it and it works in the 4k capture software at least now... but it still isnt recognized in OBS and bricks it if I try to do anything with the layers properties
Hey, im setting up my nintendo switch through obs using the hd60 s+, and everything is set up except theres no audio coming through. Ive gone to the 4k capture and set the audio input to analog, Ive gone through the video capture device in obs and set the advanced audio settings to monitor and output, I even switched my computers audio input to my capture card. uninstalled obs and redownloaded it. I switched the nintendos tv audio to stero. Ive done just about everything Ive found on help pages and videos I could find. could it maybe be a cable issue?
Mind sending screenshots of your Properties window in OBS for that capture card layer?
Are you by any chance using headphones
To the switch, while it’s docked
no, they're plugged into my pc which switching the audio to analog should've solved. I've reset it without any headphones too, but nothing changes.
This is all I could find myself
Maybe you can trace your steps here, I don’t have a switch myself so my knowledge really stops here
thank you for trying anyways. I appreciate it!
Goodluck buddy
God bless, thank you.
but its only support 144 1440p max
how did he do 240hz 1440p
that I have no answer for.
oh no
maybe this can help https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360033795231-Elgato-Game-Capture-4K60-Pro-MK-2-Supported-Resolutions-and-Frame-Rates
i read it , doesnt said anything about 240hz 1440p
nope, so the person might be doing something else, or using something else.
no he said he use 1440p on 240hz dual pc with 4k60 pro mk2
that could be why
possibly this guide is for dual pc. https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049800232-PC-Game-Recording-with-Elgato-Game-Capture-4K60-Pro-MK-2-Setup

Anyone have an issue with using a HD60S when you duplicate your display it forces the HD60S to capture in Portrait even though your main display is Landscape?
shouldn’t, maybe check nvidia’s control panel
I've been stuck with this issue for a few months (actually up to a year i think) after a certain update. I just installed the latest version which made the visible and audio lag a bit better, but it's still abysmal like shown in the video (showing how laggy it is when I'm trying to stream a nintendo switch game). I'm using an HD60 S+ external capture card, and I'm just trying to stream the preview tab to Discord. It was completely fine (besides a half-second delay in input) before that certain update. If anyone knows any possible solutions for this, please reply with a ping
this card can have a delay up to 1-2.5 secs
No matter how long I wait, it stays this bad
And honestly input delay is less of a priority for me than simply making it usable
what else is wrong? From what I got based off your info was the delay.
Did you even look at the video?
The video and audio is laggy as hell, basically unusable
yeah the audio was awful. you're connected to a usb 3.0 port on your mobo?
Yes.
have you updated the drivers/bios for your mobo?
Yes.
I've done all the basic solutions already, like I said I've been stuck with this issue for months.
try this reboot, and unplug the card for the time being. https://streamdecklabs.com/🧯-how-to-disable-windows-10-11s-usb-selective-suspend-setting/ once you reboot after doing this plug the card back in.
Once you complete these steps, Windows will no longer power off USB devices connected to your computer, which will fix any problem are experiencing as a result of this Windows feature.

this didn't help, still just as laggy
Did you update the firmware?
firmware?
yes on the capture card!
the onyl way I can see if the capture card needs an update is through the settings, and it says its up to date
the only thing i can find for the firmware is the version it's on, I can't find any settings allowing me to manually update it.
never mind i found out how to access it, but it says it's up to date
have you tried OBS instead of 4K capture utility?
yes, it's stuck running at 30 fps despite me changing settings, and the audio will not work properly (it gives 2 audio inputs, one synced and one delayed, but it will not let me put the synced audio on my default pc audio output)
can you show your OBS settings?
i dont have OBS installed on this computer, I used it before on my old pc
try OBS
ok, but i doubt itll be different
Then why look for help 😂
It's still stuck at 30 fps, and there's no audio.
Fill in a #official-tech-support if you think it’s broken.
I'm looking for help fixing Elgato. not using OBS since it doesnt work and this isnt OBS help.
Well, fill in a #official-tech-support ticket, and I’m sure official tech support can help you!
Giving you’re here with a bit of an attitude to @warped ledge who’s trynna be helpful 
i wouldnt say a single message is me giving attitude but sure
Thanks bud, goodluck on the card
simply said i doubt itll be different cause obs just has issues
Mhm
I'm assuming Part Number is the model number, right?
for filling out the email form
I've suggested what I can, good luck! Also part just put in capture card.
for this
I've submitted my request, hopefully they have some solution.
and sorry if I was rude, I've just been tired and irritated by Elgato still having this issue after months of me trying to troubleshoot it. I've been hoping to get it fixed very soon since the new Zelda game is releasing of course
I feel you man, interaction between streaming gear and software is buggy for me as well sometimes
btw have you tried resetting it to default?
have you tried a different usb 3.0 port?
Yes
what about different HDMI/USB cables?
I've tried using my other pc which has multiple 3.0 usb ports along with my old laptop, all the same
anyone have any issues with elgatio before? i tried to set one up for my ps5 but im not getting a image on obs or the elgatio software? getting a bad audio feedback (cracking noise) from my headset from it but getting no image and tried different hdmi and change the capture cable for my ps5 controller charger cable as there the same fit but getting no picture
this is also coming up sometimes but i know the usb port is 3.0 and works Device: Elgato hd60s

This card will will output at max 4k 60fps. However it can capture a dual pc passthrough. Idk about 240hz, as I posted before what this card is capable of passing through.
Hi, I was trying to stream to some friends last night but was having issues getting it working, hoping I can have help setting it up. Any help would be very appreciated!
Device: HD60s
Software & Version: I tried both the latest OBS Studio and the latest Elgato 4K Capture Utility
Windows Version: Windows 10
Console: Switch
Question/Issue: After setting everything up, I go to open up OBS (and later tried Elgato 4K Capture Utility instead with the same issue) to find that my laptop is not receiving any video input from the elgato device, and the audio it's receiving is very choppy and laggy. I was able to use this device to stream from my Switch before, but that was a long time ago and with a different computer. I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting everything, but no change happened.
what cables are connected to where on the card, and pc?
hdmi from the switch to the elgato's in port, hdmi from elgato's out port to the tv, usb cable from the laptop to the elgato
to clarify, everything still works fine on the TV when I set all that up like that
are you connected to a usb 3.0 port?
oh, the site I was looking at said a 2.0 port, I don't think I have a 3.0 port on this laptop
but I thought that did sound familiar
so I guess that's it
yeah, that might be the reason.
alright, thanks
Try this first, and reboot. https://streamdecklabs.com/🧯-how-to-disable-windows-10-11s-usb-selective-suspend-setting/ After you reboot, try the card see if any improvement. Also, make sure you're connected to a usb 3.0 port on your mobo.
Once you complete these steps, Windows will no longer power off USB devices connected to your computer, which will fix any problem are experiencing as a result of this Windows feature. Windows 10+ includes the USB selective suspend feature that lets you automatically put USB devices in a very low-power state when they’re not actively… Continue r...
Will try and I had it in the mobo 3.0
Is there a way to use one capture card on two different streaming apps at a time?
Like run twitch and YouTube live?
got a capture card today the hd 60 s but its refusing to displaying anything shows the input on tv but nothing in the elgato software or obs ive tried multiple ports only works on certin ports but wont displaying anything
Ive tried reinstalling the software nothing deleting the elgato stuff in device manager then reinstalling nothing
switching hdmi and cables
some people have said you might have to update this or something
thats slimer to the issue im having, are u getting any sort of audio feedback @unreal jacinth
dam i havent mine sorted either but im getting a really bad audio feedback
Did u tried the link posted above
just tried it nothing
They say about using the usb on you motherboard but I dont think I have a 3.0 one on my mother board only 3.1 I think
Im genuinely so mad I've tried so many things
What you trying to record or stream I'm trying to get it to work with my Xbox series x
What cable would you guys recommend for the HD 60 s the usb c one?
What are you trying to capture
My Xbox series x
@crystal jolt any progress on trying to get your elgato to display an image in the elgato program i havent had any luck dont know what to try given up might try again tomorrow really
4K Capture Utility and OBS can be used at the same time with the 4K60Pro MK.2
did you turn off HDCP?
you cant do that on xbox can you?
did you do this first? https://streamdecklabs.com/🧯-how-to-disable-windows-10-11s-usb-selective-suspend-setting/

yep ive tried that nothing
sure put it into energy saving mode.
Had that done all ready
didnt work for me either
how are your cables connected
2 hdmi one from ps5 to elgato and the 2nd to gaming monitor and then the usb c is going from the capture card to the mobo in my pc which is a usb 3.0 and it works as i used it for my controller when pc gaming
but question the usb 3.0 i seen its a different make so could that cause issues?
It works for me when I put the usb c bit on my front bit of my PC which 3.0 cause it's blue but it will just go like this
does ur capture card light up?
Yeah goes white then red and then no lights will send a vid of it tomorrow
I know there's this https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360027954492-Status-lights-on-Elgato-Game-Capture-HD60
Just never paid attention to the lights
Technical no it doesn't light up
Well I’m starting to find my fault might lay in a bad usb c cable as u thought it was the elgato I had @warped ledge what ur thoughts on that?
you can order from elgato. https://www.elgato.com/en/spare-parts
@unreal jacinth @crystal jolt IN should be connected to your Console, OUT connected to your TV/Gaming Monitor, USB-C to your Capture Card, and USB 3.0 to your Streaming PC’s USB 3.0 port on your MOBO (Motherboard)
I don't have a 3.0 port on the back of my motherboard I don't think I have the b450 tomahawk
Yep that the way I have it
U think it will fix my issue as I’m only guessing it has to be a proper elgato one
I would suggest making sure you have a cable that matches the same power
Hey everyone, I recently got a Cam Link 4K to use with my Panasonic AG UX90. I've confirmed that I have a clean HDMI signal from the camera into a monitor. I've also verified that the Cam Link works with other HDMI signals and ensured that I was using an USB3.0 port and have tried multiple different 3.0 ports. Do yall have an idea of what steps I can take to troubleshoot this further? thx!
might want to ask in #camera-prompter
So my set up is a ps5, hd60s+, OBS, Windows 11 and I'm having the issue of my game audio randomly cutting out on my stream. Everything else is working fine, everything is plugged in correctly, I can deactivate and reactivate to temporarily fix it but it always cuts back out. I did try the fix above with turning off the setting that stops power to the USB ports I have also switched around to different USB ports and all on my PC are 3.0. Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
will do, thx!
@warped ledge
When I load up the software program the 4k capture utility this happens
hmm… let me check a few things
did you try a different usb 3.0 port?
@warped ledge know what it might mean?
I’m checking. Usually lights flash for turning on, but the red checking.
Oh ok
Yes I have tried a few different ones
Hello !
Having switched to a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4, it is now impossible for me to stream the phone to my Elgato HD60. 😦
Anybody have the same problem ?
i hope this helps https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/4412612731021-Capturing-High-Refresh-Rate-Video-From-Android-Devices
Oh yeah ! Ma phone is on 120 fps 😮
Thank you for the link !
You're Welcome!
I juste can't find the "EDID Mode"
Ctrl + Click the Cogwheel via Settings and make sure you have an hdmi adapter.
Yes !
In the phone settings, in "Connection" "More Connections" there is not even the HDMI option. I think the problem is the cable!
I'll just try plugging it into a normal HDMI display outside the Elgato to confirm this.
I just found the source of the problem: the phone is just not compatible with HDMI cables. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsdOH1kDYbE)
Thank you for your answers! If other people have the same problem as me, you know how to redirect them! 
did you ever figure out what the lights on my elgato meant @warped ledge ?
still researching it.
no worries, but I'm also at work, so I am checking when I can.
I just bought a elgato 4k60pro for my stream pc and its not detecting. I am able to see it in my nvidia control panel when i clone them but no signal still.
is the nvme installed in the same spot that draws power?
I have an external ssd drive
This is a z390 aorus mobo
Top is my gpu and 2nd is the capture card. I also tried plugging it into pciex4 and it still doesnt work
@crystal jolt you ordered a new cable yet?
nope ended up returning the capture card and just gonna buy a new one
Oh ok
Just got out of work, but there are a few things I'm still looking up. It's been a busy day.
if you do, try for the HD60X
i was thinking that as my local currys pc world (uk shop) have it on sale at £150 so seems like a good deal and used ones are going for around 120
ok, could be a defect card... bought it refurbished
yeah, that could be. have you opened a ticket with #official-tech-support ?
i am now

IN is connected to Console, OUT to TV/Gaming Monitor? PCIE isn’t using the same power for an NVME drive is it?
yes.yes, and maybe im not sure
If your nvme is installed in the slot under your gpu it’s more than likely the culprit. You may need to power everything off, and move it to the one above your gpu. Most mobo are setup this way.
Anyone ever had an issue with the HD60x occasionally freezing? Audio stops coming through and the capture stops. It happened to me like 3 times last night. Up until last night, i haven't had any issues in 10 days of streaming with it. Thanks in advance!
Or Perhaps it's just OBS? i'm not sure. restarting OBS and my broadcast it fixes itself
I haven't had this issue just getting the preview to come through in OBS is my issue I've put in a support ticket for.
Is there a way to use one capture card on two different streaming apps at a time i am trying to stream on twitch and TikTok studio at the same time
that's more on RTMP, have you looks at a multi-streaming service. I know of a few that are good.
any names please
Just got a new computer, and now my HD60 S will not show a picture on OBS or the Elgato Capture Utility. It says to plug it into a USB 3.0, but it is. Any thoughts? Thank you!
Anyone have any experience with cam link pro capture card intermittently losing signal?
So Ive ordered a new cable hope fully that works and if it doesn't I'm gonna lose it
Sorry for the vague inquiry. A friend and I have been having similar issues with our new cards. I’ll post specs in a bit.
Hello all. I have an issue with my Elgato hd60x. I have tried is on 2 laptops and my desktop.
I am getting display and audio output but the OBS and Elgato 4K Utility stays black.
I have now tried several hdmi cables, usb A to usb C and usb C to C cables.
Anyone have any solution?
Also with my PS4 I got a display with passthrough and sound only 1 time and after that my display keeps turning on and off and saying there is no signal
Also this message pops up on all cables I have tried and I know for sure 3 of them are USB 3.0 or 3.1 cables.
I have put a known usb 3.0 cable in a port from another device that specifically says usb 3.0. I still get display and sound on my monitor but still a black screen on the elgato 4K utility
Hi everyone, I'm looking for help with the crackling audio with the HD60 X
Device: HD60 X (22.04.26)
Software & Version: OBS version 29.0.2 and 4k capture utility 1.7.9 (4941)
Windows/Mac Version: Windows 10
Console/Dual PC: PS4 at the moment
Question/Issue: Regardless of where I try to run video thru (OBS or 4K) i get crackling audio. I have messed with every setting, made sure everything is up to date, run through headphone jack output and optical to a sound bar. I can't get rid of it.
this should be in #camera-prompter
you can dm me, I'm free for 30 mins
what are you using to route your audio over to the streaming pc?
Hi I need help whenever I connect my Nintendo to my elgato and connect it to my pc and output it to another monitor when I go to my stream labs Obs I can’t get any audio from the elgato, I also checked settings for audio but the only thing I can find is changing it from auto to stereo, mono and surround sound
did you monitor & output in your audio mixer?
Yea
did you select your monitoring device?
Yes I think it goes to the monitor but there no speakers on the monitor and I can’t get any audio from it still
It's just running thru the elgato to obs like I did when I used the HD 60 S.
Also it is just a 1 pc set up if that means anything. I tested my ps3 and had the same problem. Hooked up everything thru the 60S and had no problems.
Does anybody know what causes the Elgato 4k mk.2 to disconnect randomly through OBS?
It works but it blinks out for like 1-2 seconds and starts working again
works for 10 mins then it blinks out for 1-2 seconds
I display clone my Elgato 4K60 Pro MK.2 onto my main pc and everytime i open or close or alt-tab a fullscreen game is black screens or flickers for a few seconds
nothing on the internet had helped this issue is there any fixes that people know??
thats normal if your cloning
I have a dual pc setup and it does the same
its so frustrating cause there are 2 fixes but neither is really viable thinking of trying out a splitter and say screw display cloning
yeah just try not to tab out your game when your streaming
or just dont play any games in fullscreen and play them in full screen windowed
If an german user i here who could help me by chatting over voice with me that would be great i need help with Elgato Catpure H60 X. I want to stream Switch Gameplay with OBS on Youtube or Twitch but i cant get it to work. If i add an video source in obs the screen stays black. Elgatos software shows an picture and it works fine with that. Any tipps?
Hey All! I'm in the process of reinstalling my programs to get my damn OBS working for streaming again, and I think my 4k60pro is kinda breaking. It was giving me issues when I first set the PC up, and post-OS wise and reinstall, and now THIS all happens when I try and check the different programs.
I opened OBS and it gave me the OBS screenshot, even though last night it was working completely fine
When I went to open 4kCapture Utility after seeing my OBS, my Windows11 did the thing where the windows get smaller then bounce back in, like it does when you mess with the display settings
I opened the 4kCapture a second time, and it looked like the red one
Anyone know what might be causing this or how it can be fixed...? 
This also happened lmao
hello, anyone know how to get webcam AND recording in flashback. im using obs
using 4k capture card
I posted there 🙂 thanks
Quick question 🙋🏻♂️ and seeing if anyone ever had this issue. I’m using an HD60S+, Just moved my setup and for some reason my preview screen is laggy, did a few test and troubleshooting. Not going live but my screen is just laggy as hell. If anyone has any tips plz help a brother out. Thanks!
Just wanted to repost since I am still having the issue and it seems my post got kinda lost. So my set up is a ps5, hd60s+, OBS, Windows 11 and I'm having the issue of my game audio randomly cutting out on my stream. Everything else is working fine, everything is plugged in correctly, I can deactivate and reactivate to temporarily fix it but it always cuts back out. I did try the fix above with turning off the setting that stops power to the USB ports I have also switched around to different USB ports and all on my PC are 3.0. Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I would try to deinstall driver with the hardware manager. After you deinstallt the elgato capture card driver you restart your pc. It should reinstall the driver after restart, might be an solution. Worth i try. 🙂
Could be an cable problem, i would check those first. After that check your HD60S+ Settings and the settings in obs if you use OBS for streaming, could be an scaling issue or something.
if i unterstand correctly you stream with your ps5 and your headset is pluged in your pc. So the sound source should be your ps5. Could be your HDMI Cable which is for sound and picture transfer of you ps5 to your pc. Mabye and standy option is turned on on your console which cuts sound if the system is not pluged into an headset or soundbar or someting like that (I dont know the ps5 console very well so thats just an guess on my part).
What I’m I looking for in the settings? I changed the wire to a new one still nothing. Going to test a PS5 with it and see if I’m getting the same issue
just got my hd60x issue is, i dont get any signal into it. not with my nintendo swtich and my retrotink 5x always only get blinking red light
well...mabye if you set your solution different in elgato and obs or someting...might be an scaling problem. If that does not help you can try to reinstall elgato drivers...go to your hardware manager and delete the elgato drivers and restart your pc, the drivers will be reinstalled after restart.
I stream off my ps5 through my PC, my headset is plugged into my controller via the el gato chat link cable, when the sound cuts out it only does so for my stream/obs I can still hear the sound.
What would cause my video capture to just lock up? i feel like it's overheating. Happened to me 2 times the other night. last night i streamed 5hrs without issue. Just happened to me again an hour in
HD60X
audio and video die, have to replug in the cap card
Does anybody know what causes the Elgato 4k60 MK.2 Internal capture card to disconnect randomly through OBS? I have a dual pc streaming setup that I use to clone by display to OBS. It works but it blinks out for like 1-2 seconds and starts working again. It works fine but this process repeats itself every 10 mins or so and I have no clue how to fix it. I have done the basic trouble shooting procedures people could do but I’m still unsure of what could be a solution. Any help is appreciated!
it could be loading screens from the console as this happens to me as well. I've notice it's more frequent on my ps5, but then again different settings can cause it do activate/deactivate.
can you explain a bit more about lock up? what exactly happens?
Hey guys! I am constantly unplugging and replugging my hdmi cable into my capture card, am constantly worried about me ever breaking the hdmi port. Is there any way I can ensure it wont break? Maybe like a hdmi extender or something?
So it was the cable The usb one
not recommended on an extender but any reason why you do that?
Hey Levi, thank you for the suggestion reply!
I ended up figuring out that it was a PCIe issue. I had an SSD in my 1st M.2 slot on my MB, but when you do that on my board it cuts the GPUs PCIe lanes from 16x to 8x, and apparently the capture card is not a fan of that happening, so the second I emptied that slot to free up back to the full 16x lanes, it works great now!
no need to use all caps. most people will answer when they have time. I'm currently at work, so I'm not avail yet.
there is no need it comes off aggressive and shouting.

anyone help ! i have dual pc setup and my capture card is in my streaming pc . On my gaming pc i have the screens to duplicate, So it shows on my OBS (streaming pc ) , i notice when i play games it only shows the 4k60 pro mk.2 as the display instead of showing my monitor anybody know a fix ? Or what can I do to resolve this issue
any idea why ican only use 60 Mbps in 4k capture utility
why would you want to use more?
Standard amount is usually this.
what bitrate should i set my elgato hdg0s+ capture card to in my obs encoder for when i'm streaming switch games?
my capture card is lagging in obs so i wanted to know if changing encoder settings could fix anything
what are your current settings, default is usually ideal.
to twitch?
yeah
6000kbps
What games are you playing too?
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
@wide vapor in general, don’t stream 1080p
The bitrate on twitch doesn’t allow good looking 1080p streams

how can i check?
What video card do you have?
Drop down menu at the encoder
yeah i have it
Nvenc is superior to x264 (unless you run slow )
Might just fix your lag
All that’s left testing your upload speed
Upload speed x 0.7 = bitrate speed for streaming
With a official max of 6000kbs and a unofficial of 8000kbs
my switch footage is still choppy in obs
could changing my rate controller fix things?
@upper ferry here is the best place to ask. but to answer, you could use obs instead and create 2 sources one for video and one for the audio input. you can monitor and output the audio one, and mute the video. also in obs make sure to select your headphones/speakers as your monitoring device. preferably a headset so no echo.
first what gpu do you have?
Okay, I'll install obs and see if I can figure that out, never used it before
If you need help, i have a video that goes over a lot on my YouTube channel.
Link is in my profile.
Gtx 1070 evga
let me check something.
should my video input for this be a game capture or window capture?
Sending the elgato audio into obs and monitoring it helped greatly though, so thank you
Oh video capture device seems like the best idea
yes, sorry I was helping someone.
All good, I think I have it figured out, thank you for the tip. Using obs has a lot lower latency than the 4k capture application straight from el gato
Think of 4K Capture Utility as a settings for it, and using other software for rec./streaming 🙂
have you tried OBS instead?
Try this guide see if it helps https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049800232-PC-Game-Recording-with-Elgato-Game-Capture-4K60-Pro-MK-2-Setup

PS5 dont make it easy, The way i worked around that "To the video you posted i assume thats the same issue you have" I just plugged my headsets jack into the back of the monitor, If thats a option for you, Ive been doing that now for the past 3 months or so and never had a issue
the extractor might be the issue. try removing it.
I've tried that already sadly
can you vc?
I'm at work right now, but I can later once I get home at 5pm cst
The video posted is not the issue I'm having if you read my post it says what my issue is and that the video is for reference of my setup
yes I realize it's audio.
oh you meant someone else. lol
I have the HD60X, should I activate it or not?
hey so im tryna capture footage on my Wii, but my audio is coming out hella distorted, any way i can fix that?
okay so update, i changed the screen resolution, and the audio sounds good, but now the video is super distorted
welp i fixed it lol, dont know how
annnd its broken again. this shits a mess jesus lmao
okay so it has something to do with obs i guess

I got an Elgato HD60 S, and i want to put my pc feed into my phone. My phone wont do it tho.
hi guys i have a really simple question. i have a HD60s but want to upgrade to HD60x. I have an AMD 5600XT GPU will this work as it is unclear online. Thanks
hello. im curious if anyone knows a way to "lock" the elgato hd60 pro as a screen so that my mouse cant access it and the computer doesnt try to launch programs on it either. thank you for yalls time 🙂 (dual monitor setup)
Am I in the right place for a question on capture cards?
Here's my question: I bought cam link 4k for my DSLR cam about 2 years ago and somehow it doesn't work. Since it was pass the warranty, I bought another one and this morning it started doing odd black screen flashes and finally it doesn't work anymore. I do own a 4K pro capture card which when I plug the camera, it works. I am worried that it will fry my capture card. Will this create a problem on long term?
- someone knows why the ps5 source is only 2160p and 59fps?
- is it normal that i have to replug the hdmi cables everytime when istart the 4k capture utiltiy for it to work?
I want to have twitch redemptions to change my lights on the strip light how do I get this to work ?
hey fam! I was wondering if anyone one has tried to have two gaming pc's connect to 1 streaming pc (3 pcs)?
wrong channel. please don’t spam channels
Not heard of this, usually dual is enough. Interesting though. may be possible too.
Lol that’s why I am asking. My husband and I both like to play and we want to stream together but don’t want one of the computers cpu take all hit you know?
Understood. Perhaps the Streaming PC can have 2 capture card, and that might be ideal.
This is a really interesting scenario! As Vics has suggested, it might be possible to run multiple capture cards (I would recommend an official support ticket). Alternatively, it may also be possible using the Cam Link Pro, and some “1-in 2-out” HDMI splitters. Note; the audio would have to be captured separately with this setup.
yeah, but Camlink pro only does 1080p 60 so it depends on what they want for passthrough.
Very good consideration! I’d be interested to know if multiple capture cards work 🧐 … I kinda want it too, lol.
I think it's possible as long as the pc can handle the bandwidth
Yeah, this is my gut feeling too. 🤞
Hello everyone.
I'm new I don't speak English well but I have a problem I would like to stream with my ps5 on my pc so I bought an elgato HD60X product.
I see a problem because I have trouble making the right settings on the utility 4K software because when I stream fifa 23 there is latency and jerky images.
Thank you
I’m speck french
Im hoping someone might be able to shed some light on this, I have my dual pc setup, cloning my gaming monitor to the stream pc with an elgato 4k60 pro mk2
Not sure why but when i have streamlabs obs open the video feed is absolutely perfect, when I started streaming the feed goes all purple and green n such, here are some example photo’s
And when this happens all my audio goes all distorted n static
Im sure its been answered tons of times but i cant find material for it online and the instructions that come with these capture cards are comical .
I bought a HD60X and having trouble getting it to show up for game capture HD, it shows up in OBS on both gaming/streaming PC. That being said DO you need that hdmi out plugged in? All the stuff I found online is for the S not the X. I believe I have it hooked up right. HDMI IN going to the graphics card on the GAMING comp, USB C going to the streaming PC. I thought that is what is all needed. Does the HDMI Out need to be used and if so does that just go to the gaming monitor? I tried that and it was just blacked screened.
Hello for whatever reason my Capture card is not being shown in OBS anymore could somebody tell me why it could be?
like when I try to connect it it doesn't even show anymore
and says it couldn't identify my HD60X
Have you tried OBS instead?
you're doing a dual PC?
try a different USB 3.0 port
I use obs studio but you also have to use a video capture (HD60x) from the ps5 to the pc for stream
IN should be connected to the Console/Gaming PC, OUT to a TV/Gaming Monitor. USB-C to the HD60X, and the USB-A to a USB 3.0 on your Streaming PC's MOBO USB 3.0 port.
If a dual PC try this https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049800232-PC-Game-Recording-with-Elgato-Game-Capture-4K60-Pro-MK-2-Setup
Does Elgato 4K60 Pro MK.2 have it own codec to streaming without using GPU resources?
no
hey, hopefully this is the right channel to ask. I am using the 4k60 pro mk.2 and the audio always crackles and pops. On OBS it does not pop. so right now I'm streaming video through 4k capture utility, but I have the sound go through OBS.
anyone know of a fix for the audio popping/cracking? windows 10, 64 gb ram, i7 12700k, rtx 3070.
device firmware is up to date, same for the 4k capture utility.
i should note: sometimes I will open the 4k capture utility and the sound will be fine. no idea why because I don't change any settings.
was there a windows pending update?
no
Hi Elgato community!
have an issue with elgato card 4kpro on my 2nd streaming PC
before firmware and drivers updates, I was able to get 3440x1440 144hz on capture card from my gaming PC via HDMI from iGPU
but now I got only 100hz, and this is seems to be causing issues during recording video. Video is not smooth
it looks like low refresh rate on videos
at the same time, 2 cameras on the same video look good, the issue only with video from gaming PC
my PC is i9-13900K/4090
3 monitors simrig, connected to DP ports, and VR headset connected to HDMI to GPU
and I sending video to capture card from iGPU
issue with OBS and 4k game capture software
I just try to figured out, why video on capture card is pretty bad
stream pc, 5800x 64gb 2666mhz, rtx 3050 and elgato 4kpro

what is the difference between hd60 S and hd60 S+ looking at buying one for my camera to feed into obs, so curious on what the difference is
Yes dual pc. The elgato capture card only shows on the streaming pc so I’m gonna assume that’s where it only shows on the capture app. But when I make a source on gaming pc it doesn’t even show
This article explains the differences, but the CamLink4K may be a better fit for your needs https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034171071-Elgato-Game-Capture-HD60-S-What-are-the-differences-between-it-and-the-older-Elgato-Game-Capture-HD60-S-

I'm having the same issue with the HD 60 x and haven't gotten any help.
i found a janky work around
i run OBS for the audio monitoring and elgato 4k capture utility for the video (for some reason my OBS video feed is blurry, even though I have the right resolutions selected)
it's not ideal but it works
this is my scene settings for obs @dusty otter
and here are my OBS audio settings
Hi i was curious if anyone could help with why I'm not getting any audio out of my screen link?
hi ever since the camera hub update i have been dropping frames whenever i use my epoccam to the point where i cant stream and my game is unplyable
what do i do
before it worked just fine
Are you maybe available today around 5cst to voice chat and I can kinda explain my issue further? I've tried so many things and nothing has worked to fix my audio issue. That only thing I have seen but not tried is downgrading my card driver. That kinda worries me which is why I haven't tried it yet
can elgato take PCIe 3.0 x16 slot?
sorry, I wasn't free due to reapplying thermal paste to my cpu/aio
No worries at all, let me know sometime that you are?
Can anyone help me?
It's says : Game Capture HD60 X must be connected to a USB 3.0 port for proper operation
Oh you just have to make sure the USB port you’re plugging it into is 3.0
How do i get to Streamlabs
i worked now
Got it working?
If you want to use stream labs OBS you’ll have to download it, and set everything up there
I have stream labs
Okay so yeah just open up stream labs, and then add your capture card as a source
Is 4k capture utility still open?
yes
4k capture is probably using the signal for the capture card which is why it’s not showing up in SLOBS
So close 4k capture
okay
You may need to close SLOBS and then open it up again for it to register that 4k is no longer using it
what is slobs
Streamlabs OBS
Idk if it’s still called that anymore but that’s what I’m used to it being
So now I open streamlabs again or what
Yes now the audio
For the capture card?
Yea
You’re not getting any audio now?
Hm okay
Give me a second I might be able to find a video on how to set it up, only cause I’m at work and can’t explain it as well
Okay give this a shot, it’s for the S+ but it SHOULD all be the same
Hope this helps, it’s a more detailed explanation than I can give right now
can you help me just by telling me
Unfortunately I’m at work right now, so I can’t be on my phone much, but the link I posted is directly from the Elgato website and it’s how to set up a capture card
Well the audio is in streamlabs
but I can't hear it for me
You get it?
in the streamlabs audio mixer set your capture to monitor and output
i'll see if i can get a screenshot
@minor hare does that help?
Hi, I'm buying an old Game Capture HD off ebay for a few things, but one thing I'd like to do is VHS digitising. The VCR has a scart output and I've found some adapters to convert it to the S-Video AV that the card has. Will these work or do I need a different approach. I know about the specific product that Elgato makes for vhs but it's well overpriced when I can get a second hand card that will do a lot more. Links for the adapters at the bottom. Thanks!

?
my elgato is blinking red
i have it hooked up to my new pc
its a gaming pc
so its connected to my xbox and pc
i can see my xbox visuals on my tv
but i cant see the visuals on my pc via streamlabs
i know the elgato works because i used it with a macbook before.. my pc just got here today so im trying to set it up on this now
Hello, I have an hd60x and 2 more than capable gaming/streaming pcs that I've been using to stream. Both are able to handle HDR yet when I use my hd60x I have to turn off hdr on my monitor and sucks. It seems there is a way to have hdr on while using the capture card but I haven't been able to figure it out or find a solution anywhere. I currently have my hdr capable main display cloned onto my hd60x. When cloned it makes me shut down hdr... Is there something I can do different to use hdr while i play? It doesn't need to be on the stream/hd60x
I appreciate the suggestion. I've been going back and forth with my support ticket. Most recent "fix" was to update my bios (that was just released not even a week ago) and if anything that just made it worse. I really think the hardware needs a new firmware update. I'm going to keep trying whatever suggestion I'm given but until then I've ordered a EVGA XR 1 Pro in hopes that will truely work out of the box. I hate spending over $150 dollars on something that doesn't work as it should.
elgato hd60x btw
any help would be appreciated
everything is plugged in right
my pc is a gaming pc and a very nice one, brand new.
that is the only variable in this situation. im moving from a macbook pro to a gaming pc, im still using the same tv and xbox
i dont understand why im getting a red blinking light for the pc
brand of pc is omen, geforce rtx
sold for 1900 dollars at best buy
Anyone know about this?
||btw scart is a thing just in europe i think||
If you have an HD 60 x and having audio issues make sure you put in a ticket. The more eye on the issue maybe there will be a fix.
Have you tried turning it on and off yet
Thats how I fix my red light, just unplug the cables from the 60x
I tried that
I don't think that was needed. People help when they can, please don't be rude.
sorry vic you helped me months ago
i remember you
you helped me with my macbook
i was just stating that no one helped me yesterday which is a factual statement and i was just correcting myself. I was not meaning to come off as rude Vic\
I simply was letting everyone know i fixed my problem, and naturally doing so i falsely said thank you to the incorrect persons
If i offended anyone i am sorry but that was not my intention.
I am a direct thinking individual and sometimes when typing i come across in the wrong way
But I called the elgato customer service today and they helped me
so thank you to them
not the discord, i did not receive help here and i just want to reiterate that that is what i meant and i was not trying to spread any hate or ill mannered statements
Thanks!
What I do is enable HDR recording, but I don't Tonemap through the app. I do the Tonemapping in OBS for HDR since it's been a feature for a while now.
I'm avail
i can help with your capture card, but you want to ask about the camera stuff in #camera-prompter
I haven't used Screenlink in a long while. I'll check and see if it's possible.

top one will be a GPU, any of the bottom 3 can be fine, however, make sure the nvme drive is in the top slot, not the bottom so the power doesn't have an issue. I am curious to see if 2 can run at the same time, given 4k capture utility has a dropdown like camera hub to change settings for each device. Sine the experience with Camera Hub allows me to use EpocCam and my Facecam at the same time, I doubt it will be an issue. Maybe Elgato make a new capture card that allows multiple consoles connected at once in the future. If they do this aside from camlink pro, which as @fathom ember stated about audio, I would love to see them do it 4k120hz vrr hdmi 2.1 for each. that would be wild! lol
why not get a camlinkpro, unless you intend to game with it?
I did send a #feature-request to see if Elgato could add an audio tab to control the audio on the capture card maybe in a future update, but for now the workaround is using OBS with 2 sources. 1 for video and mute the video source, and 1 for the audio input and monitor and output the audio input.
Try this guide see if it helps https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049800232-PC-Game-Recording-with-Elgato-Game-Capture-4K60-Pro-MK-2-Setup

yeah but the audio is probably going to the the main issue. if you're looking for just a video feed, like a camera, then camlink/pro but if you're looking for gaming then a capture card is ideal.
Thanks for the response, it seems I just don't have an elgato device that supports hdr recording...
I haven't forgotten, but are you using OBS or just 4k capture utility?
which device do you have?
I use 4kCU for video, and OBS for audio, because 4kCU has choppy audio
HD60X
according to this link, mine is not supported. At least not yet.
https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039722952-Elgato-4K-Capture-Utility-Recording-and-playback-of-HDR-video
you know mine has been acting up recently too. I think it may be an issue with the recent drivers. I'll be opening a ticket too. please do the same with #official-tech-support i think something recently changed and I have issues when using display vs internal as well.
try using just OBS for both. see if that works out better for you. 🙂
Perhaps there is an issue, but it supports it pass through should be fine.
what I would suggest, is putting both your gaming and streaming pc in HDR mode on windows, and then the passthrough should also match.
I believe I just have it set up wrong? I duplicate my main display onto my hd60x and it's windows that doesn't support that configuration. HDR is indeed on for both pc's 100% of the time aside from this issue. I need to learn the right way to set up my capture card
I've tried, but for some reason the resolution from OBS is lower than 4KCU, even though it's set to 1440p. It's not as 'crisp'. I don't know if my settings are wrong
what are your current settings?
are you setting it up in the nvidia control panel to match?
probably, my nvidia control panel has the right resolution for my monitor (1440p)
follow the guide I sent from elgato, but make sure you enable HDR and tonemapping.
what about in 4k capture utility?
also 1440p
let that be set to default
I will follow the guide but this is what I've had, unpictured is duplicating display 1 onto display 3 (display 3 is my hd60x) and duplicating HDR isn't supported by windows
for some reason the default is 1080p
hmmm I'll research a bit more on this.
might want to change that. 🙂
do I change that in nvidia control panel?
no in 4k capture utility there should be options.
It also does not give me the option at all to turn on HDR while duplicating
yeah but you just said to set it to default rather than 1440p, and for some reason it goes to 1080p as the default, it's weird
I'll research it. could be the just for consoles.
what's the max?
choose 3440x1440
once you make that change see if any improvement
yeah that's not good.
checking something
this is going to sound weird, but unplug the hdmi cables, and plug them back in after 30sec to 1 min
ok, should i close 4kcu/obs
I know on single pc without a capture card HDR rec. is possible, as I do that directly in obs with game capture on obs. now dual pc still researching with a capture card, but looks like so far only console have come up for HDR.
let me know when you have everything back on.
everything is turned on
ok cables reconnected?
yup
ok lets see those settings and see if any changes
I switch between 2 PC's for streaming. One is my main that ill stream with when I play console. The other is what I use to stream when I game on my main PC. If its appropriate to ask, what card would you reccomend I use if I frequently switch between PC's to stream? HD60 s+? The MK2 looks nice but I'd probably have to uninstall, reinstall nonstop unless i bought 2
EDIT: Since it looks like the HD60x isn't capable of what I want it to do
that is not normal. reset the capture card to default factory, and we'll play from there with the settings to get it correct.
ok, can I do that from the 4kcu?
if the HD60X can't do HDR, the 4K60Pro MK.2 may not be able too, but I'm checking. this may take a bit to research also I'm going to bed in a bit. I'll message again if I find anythign. If not, please don't heasitate to reach out to #official-tech-support and also ask elgato for a #feature-request for this to passthrough HDR gaming on a dual pc setup.
yes!
Thanks for everything so far! will do
hmm, is it with the reset defaults button? I don't see a factory reset button
If you're into a single PC HDR streaming with OBS use my screenshot to help with the settings.
yes
that one!
ok, done
now what are the settings?
yup, I figured this was a better idea. lol
ok make sure to setup your PS5 on the correct resolution you want to it doesn't auto change it
so I guess I still wanna make the ps5/4kcu take the 4k resolution?
I do, because of VRR passthrough for me. I can easitly get 1440p 120hz
I dont' use the vrr
I just have it enabled, and keep it 1440p
ok I'm having the same issue again lol 😅 let me try to fix this rq
Certain games allow this
oh no
so the souce is 1440p 120, but my output is 144060
k so my ps5 is now set to 1440p 120hz
will obs reflect that now? not sure what to do next
going to bed, but now that we know you can reset and it will work, just make sure it's changes that will work.
So OBS you set it up to the max the capture can do, and it will passthrough 1440p automatically
ok, i think it works lemme check
now if you already have the capture tonemapping don't use my exact settings via REC2100PQ . if you're using OBS to tone map, then this would be ideal.
oh jeez, so yeah it's good now but i have like 15 fps
and I'm running on performance mode
that's odd.
4kcu didn't have this problem 
does your pc meet the specs required?
pretty sure yeah
i7-12700k
64gm ram
rtx 3070
seems like it does
when I put it back to 1440p in obs, it's blurry again, it's like it goes down to 1080p
but in 4k it's good, though there's like 15 fps
seems liek it's pushing 4k30 but not sure, what game are you playing?
hmm... no updated pending or anything is there?
nah
but it's really ok, you can go to bed fam, I'll just use audio from OBS and use video from 4kcu
we'll figure it out tomorrow. Night 🙂
figured it out, I removed the 120hz options from the ps5 and now it's smooth. i don't mind 60 fps tbh so it's all good, even tho my monitor goes up to 165
I am very confused: my Game Capture Pro managed to capture my HD60 Pro but not in OBS, however after reinstalling it doesn't show up at all.
so now I'm getting the "no devices found", despite it having found the device just a moment ago
of course, none of the troubleshooting article steps work or apply
I actually just figured out a fix to my issue today
yep, this problem still plagues me
Is this your first time setting it up?
no, I've had it successfully work before
Been working with a helper on this ticket this whole time, they haven't been able to find any working solutions. Just recently had to send them my computer info for the 2nd time now.
If anyone else has any possible solutions for this issue, please ping me, gettin kinda desperate with the new Zelda game being so close
Case #?
Just a sec, have to go get it from my computer
have you had any software or windows updates recently?
the case number is #2006082673
though 5 minutes ago i finally got a reply to my last info reply, so ill see if what they sent helps
got it, i'll keep an eye on it and you can feel free to ask me if you need help with any steps
alright, ty
Oh Thomas is on it, he's an advanced tech so hopefully that does help
I replaced my motherboard, but again, the capture card worked fine on the Game Capture HD program until yesterday
have you opened a case yet? if not, please open one and let me know the case number so i can investigate further
Just wondering, did the 4K Capture get an update? The reason why I'm asking this is because before I couldn't get sound on my Astro headset from the Nintendo Switch, and now I'm getting sound. I needed the adaptor for the PS5, but I could never heard the Switch ever. So did the card get update that allows for this to happen?
No recent updates would have caused this, it should have worked for a while. Maybe theres a setting you changed without realizing?
No, I haven't touched anything. When it comes to my 4K, it was a replacement from my last one, and this one I have to turn the 4K program on, and then turn the PS5 on in order for ANYTHING to be seen on my TV screen that displays it all. When it shows only in my 4K cap program and not the TV, I have to completely shut the computer down and then restart it up in order for it to work correctly. Other than that, I've never touched ANY of the settings at all. Shoot, my Astro A50's haven't had an update in ages (I don't even know when it gets an update since it has to be on the PC side, and it's never on that side due to being there for the PS5).
Problem: Sound Distorted
System: Windows 10 22h2 , 5800x, rtx3070
Product: HD60X
I'm writing this for @knotty notch as we are not able to pinpoint what could be happening. She's having issues with distorted sound (PS5) which started just recently, before Tuesday (25th) there were no issues.
Normally she is using Windows itself to listen to the audio which comes from the capture card, by setting Windows to listen to the device and output to the headset. When starting up any game on the pc however the distortion starts. When closing the game the distortion is gone.
However the distortion is also present in the audio of the 4K Capture Utility, when no game is running.
Any ideas what could cause these issues to suddenly appear?
Have you tried reinstalling the drivers for the capture card?
Does this only happen in 4KCU, or in other software like OBS or Streamlabs?
Only when I was installing the replacement. The last time I had done a reinstall of the drivers, the whole thing got screwed up, and that was thanks to something on the card not working correctly. Since then everything's been fine till the Switch sound popped up today
in OBS everything is working fine
@fluid mauve @knotty notch Will you guys have time for separate VC's/DM's a bit later?
Depends on what time it is, I'm in the PST zone
I'm CST, its 5:30 ish for me now. Just let me know what times work best for you guys if you're interested, otherwise check out #official-tech-support
That's fine, I'm not worried about it, I was just curious is all. Just didn't expect for this to happen since it's never happened before now.
I checked again, it's also in OBS... for me it's 1 am right now, would it be possible to do it tomorrow
how do I play in 1440p using an elgato capture card? I'm fine if the recording is 1080p, I just want to be able to play games in 1440p though. My monitor is 1440p so 1080p just looks blurry
Im using the hd60 pro
games only allow me to go 1440p when in windowed
otherwise locked on 1080p
I've tried overriding the hd60 resolution to 1440p, though that doesnt change anything
whenever I duplicate the display to display 2 and 4 (2 is main monitor, 4 is hd60) it makes my pc unable to play in 1440p
because I have to duplicate the displays, yes?
yeah tomorrow is fine!
Ty! 🙂 what time would be best for you
5pm your time is 10 am for me, does that work?
that would be perfect, thank you 🙂
how do I use an hd60 pro from pc to laptop ( I want to record games from my pc, onto my laptop)?
I think and external card would be be ideal vs a pcie unless you reverse it and capture your laptop.
if i get a capture card to hook up to my pc for dual pc streaming, do i get the 4k60pro because my main monitor is 240hz, and plug it into my gaming pc
It seems that it was a glitch of sorts. My Astro A50 headset really got affected. I had to restart the headset when it not only wouldn't shut down, but was giving a false battery read from the headset. After I reset the headset manually, I no longer heard any sounds from the Switch through the headset any more.
So I recently got a PS5, that I mainly play 2k on. I use an elgato to stream the game from my PS5 using my PC, but the main issue I’m having is I can’t talk to my teammates or capture party audio, since that audio is either transferred straight into my pc thru the elgato, or into my headphones if I plug them into my PS5/controller. Is there a way to be able to utilize both, so that I can stream using my PC and still capture party chat audio/talk to the party?
I think you need a chat link for that
Yeah Chat link cable is needed
Wait so does that mean, I cant use my wireless headphones at all? And that I have to use a wired pair?
Thats weird, it should work. Let me look into this more.

Im not at my pc atm! I’ll dm you on Sunday evening!
Um, for some reason my Chrome won't translate the page. Event though the whole thing is reading in French, it still won't translate for some reason
i have an hd60 s+ and when i plug up the capture card, it seems to transfer the input fine to my monitor until i launch the capture software. when i do that, it says no signal and suddenly the feed to my monitor stops as well.
i can capture using obs instead but it doesn't seem to be able to capture the audio. video only
are you connected to a usb 3.0 port on your mobo?
yes
Is IN connected to console/gaming pc, OUT connected to TV/Gaming Monitor?
yes
try different hdmi cables
I have this problem
When i enable the source on obs it work for 1 s and after it put me a black screen
I tried with a s10 and it worked Perfectly
is your laptop connected to power/charging?
Yes he is constantly connected to power
And it work perfectly with my nintendo switch
Ello, not sure if anyone knows the issue here as I've literally scoured the internet for answers on this and I've only managed to find a handful of other people who had this issue (two of which happened within the last 48hrs like myself).
I am using the HD60 and mid use my Game Capture stopped capturing displaying as shown in the first image
After doing a whole lot of restarting, checking inside my PC to see if it had been damaged or somehow loosened, everything seemed okay. Like a normal person and from internet advice I went to reinstall the drivers, which many said to uninstall them first - interestingly my driver for Game Capture appeared to be missing (the sound capture was there fine).
I continued to try install the driver regardless and despite this, no driver has appeared within there since, see second image. Like before even if I uninstall Sound Capture it comes back find but Game Capture does not.
From what I'm aware not many people have encountered this that have posted it on the internet but there's been a couple who have reported this since I had the issue, but the only other people I found to have had the issue a while before me never found a solution
So if anyone has any answers or advice that would be great thank you

Software & Version: 4K Capture Utility Software 1.7.9

Question/Issue: **Distorted sound. **
Hi All, I'm having an issue with my capture card recording the sound audio coming from my Nintendo Switch. I am using an Elgato Chat Link Pro to get the audio from my switch to record to my laptop while simultaneously sending it to my headphones while I play. For some time, the audio was captured and worked fine. However, two weeks ago the audio became distorted. I don't know if something switched with my audio settings for my laptop because I tested the same set up on an older laptop and it records the audio fine. I need to know what's wrong with my current laptop audio settings to re-record sound. Can anyone help me with this?
in 4k capture utility yes.
unplug it, and reboot. Plug back in, make sure all cables are secure.
fixed it
by unplugging the power
4k60s+ was defaulted to 1080p60
but 4k capture said there is no signal
even though i just recorded a session in obs

Thanks for getting back to me. I tried this a couple of times and that didn’t fix the issue. I feel like it’s something from my laptop.
I'll be able to help in a bit, working on something 🙂
No problem take your time. I appreciate it!

Give me 5 minutes if possible.
Tried this, I don't have an option for USB. I can VC whenever.
I'm curious to know the fix for this one. I've had issues with distorted sound from the hd60x since I got it. All other elgato products work/worked fine with my set up.
First thing I suggest is checking for any Win updates, drivers & bios updates, then instead of using 4k capture utility use OBS and create 2 sources 1 for video, and 1 for audio. only monitor and output the audio source, and mute the video source.
Can someone please explain to me why my elgato 4k60 has a green screen covering my gameplay?
it could be the settings.
If that helps, also I use OBS to HDR Tonemap, but if you prefer the capture card to do it, you can select enable HDR Tonemapping.
That didn’t work…sound is working perfectly though, just the vid is giving me trouble
This is my elgato 4k60 right now
Does anyone know if its possible for me to stream from a ps3 with a hd60 card?
as long as you disable hdcp on the ps3 it should work with either elgato capture card on HDMI i would say
@mellow breach you can't disable hdcp on a PS3, and we respect the copyright protection - so we can not recommend anything to avoid that on hdmi - but the ps3 can also output via composite which does not feature hdcp if you want to use composite you would need an adapter like that
this only happens with 4k content doesn't it? but not with 1080p60?
i have a question about why my capture card HD60 S+ isn’t working with my Macbook pro M1 pro
it’s flickering and it’s not recording my minecraft at all
I hope this helps! https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360052527791-Apple-Silicon-Compatibility-M1-M2-
I'm looking to get a small laptop to do some primarily retro video game streaming away from my primary desktop PC. I would be using a USB Cam Link for the video capture and just using the laptop for running OBS, Discord, etc. I would not be doing any serious gaming on the laptop itself. Does anyone have recommendations for the minimum specs I would need just for the purposes of capturing video with the Cam Link and streaming?
Hi there! I stream through obs on a mac, using the hd60s+, astro mixamp, and xbox. Currently, im getting a terrible echo. Gunfire sounds bad, and xbox party chat is very noticeable with the echo. Ive spoken with the obs discord folks, and theyve confirmed that i have obs set up properly, and that it must be related to the game capture or mixamp softwares. Does anyone know of a fix here? I was never an issue until i downloaded the wavelink software. I have completely removed it, but the issue remains.
@limber mist I think you might be right. I haven’t tried to lower my base. The issue just started and It worked before on the same setting.
i have a M1 Pro and it doesn’t work and it says it’s supposed to work
im seeing mixed answers about this online.. if using the 4K60 Pro mk2 in a passthrough setup with 4k, what is the maximum refresh rate that it will passthrough?
Its either 144hz or 60hz

I am trying to capture my Xbox series s and mic and be able to hear both of them in my own headphones and can do both just not together so if I have just my mic and soundcard connected to my pc and only have my headset connected to the splitter cable I can hear my mic fine but as soon as I plug in my Xbox controller the sound for the mic goes and I just get game audio unplug controller and of course game audio goes but mic comes back I would believe there is a way to hear both as both do get captured if I do a recording or stream but I can not hear mic as soon as the controller gets connected
i seem to have an issues here dual pc stream setup hd60 pro.. so on the streaming pc i have a headset and it is chosen on the task bar settings.. everything like the browser music etc plays though the headset . so on the gaming pc when i choose the elgato option to direct sound to the streaming pc.. the sound on the streaming pc only comes through the monitor and not the headset.. but all other sounds come out of the headset..
I wish i could answer the other questions... But, does anyone have any idea why my HD60 S is passing through to another screen fine, but won't capture, saying it needs to be connected to a USB 3.0 port even though I've tried multiple USB 3.0 cords, and all the ports on my computer
Hi all! I have an issue with Arma Reforger, when i stream or rec a session the radio communication and the proximity chat don't get captured. It seems like they never exist for the OBS software, it seems like they aren't considered an audio track! From the OBS Discord they said that maybe here we can find a resolution to the problem! I play from Xbox and capture with an HD60s, and stream with OBS! Hope someone can help me, and sorry if this has been asked before.
weird..... are the proximity chat and radio communication considered a part of in game audio, or would they be treated separately by the xbox like party chat on a playstation might be?
the same goes with HD60X
Hi, I was wondering if Elgato HD60X can accept 7.1CH audio from HDMI so I can record that on PC?
@winged dragon sry just stereo
All models? 😔🥲
unfortunately
Does Elgato have sound extractor devices?
to Extract audio before going to capture card
nope, and my experience with them isn't the best
yeah the ones I tried aren't good, that's why I'm looking for an Elgato
even then the incoming audio would need to get downmixed otherwise you would miss e.g. voices and just get background sounds - you can try that one (quite expensive) but i can not confirm that this will work out: Denon AVR-X2700H DAB 7.2-Kanal AV-Receiver
That's the question. It should be...
Hmm..... I see.... I'd have to think on it....
I have a internal elgato capture card which works great but here is the question cause I use that internal capture card to capture my game chat and party chat from my console using the chat link cable? I currently have a Astro a40 tr with mix amp and also I have a steelseries arctic pro nova wireless headset how will I go on about connecting it
if i want to do a dual pc streaming setup, can i get the 4k60pro mk 2, and hook it into my gaming pc and connect it to my laptop?
you could use it as a line in via chatlink/pro
the desktop is your streaming pc correct?
yeah
im jus trying to figure out a way that doesnt involve display capture with obs on my gaming pc or screen tearing
anyone know why my HD60S+ is outputting on OBS as if its 30fps, even on recordings, as shown below, no matter what ive tried it wont seem to go above 30, it looks all choppy in the preview and recordings, game is fine though, just the 4K capture util and OBS are running awful
Hey all, Is there a need for a custom EDID for elgato 4k 60 mk2 pro to work with 165hz monitors? My setup is gaming pc hdmi to streaming pc in of capture card and then going out to my dell 165z refresh rate monitor. When looking at its resolution options in nvidia or windows display settings it doesn't list 1920x1080p for pc resolution. only list 1920x1080p under the uhd hdtv options. Any help would be great. Thanks.
what do you have video rate set too in obs studio set? and what do you have the elgato hd60s+ set too for video rate when you ad it to the source.
So I will run the chat link cable to the line in on the back of my astro a40 mixer?? Or connect the chat link cable to headphone port in front of the Astro a40 mixer
What's the best way to record my series x with my hd60 s but also still get 120hz into my monitor so i can still play shooters properly?
unfortunately according to elgato website here https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360051938572-Elgato-Capture-Devices-and-120Hz-High-Refresh-Rate only these support 120hz These devices support 120Hz input and capture:
Elgato Game Capture HD60 X
Elgato Game Capture 4K60 Pro
Elgato Game Capture 4K60 Pro MK.2
Being you have the hd60 S model it will not pass through the 120hz. Unless someone knows a way of to clone a console monitor your only option would be to return your current capture card and purchase the correct model. Then it's as simple as running the hdmi from your series x to the capture card and capture card hdmi output to your 120hz capable tv. For now your tv will only see 60hz.
Anyone know how to build or find custom EDID profiles for the elgato capture card?
Hey guys,
I'm having a bit of an issue with my Elgato HD capture card and OBS. For some reason, OBS can't seem to detect the capture card as a source, even though it works perfectly fine in the Elgato game capture software.
I've tried everything I can think of - I've uninstalled and reinstalled OBS, updated drivers, rolled back to older drivers, and even formatted my computer, but nothing seems to be working.
If anyone has any ideas or troubleshooting steps that could help me out, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks in advance.
