i WILL say, would be NICE, but not strictly NECESSARY, if it cam with one more HADMI cable, lol
totally didnt end up getting an extra HDMI cable when i ran down to best buy to get those and a switch, that bestbuy didnt even have
totally understandable

yeah, my current/planned set up is to have a cable with a coupler coming out to the side from the cards input, and another coming out to a switch then monitor from the out put, the other leg of the switch is connected to my GPU
nini
would it generally be a bad idea to use a streamdeck profile i get off of reddit
idk if they can be used malicously or not so i thought its best to ask
I need help, I’m not able to install wave link
God i hate compromised accounts seen like 5-6 compromised accounts this month
#question-of-the-day I create most of my content on PC or the Switch2. 
I would try asking in #wave-audio
#question-of-the-day I create content solely on my PC
#question-of-the-day I'm primarily a Windows user, though I do dabble in Linux from time to time and have been seriously considering releasing some homelab tutorials for it. As for platforms I publish to? Just YouTube and Twitch. I don't see myself going to Kick if I can help it.
That would be pretty cool!
There's one topic that I've had a few people ask me about at the local hackerspace that I kinda stumbled into myself (getting HTTPS for your self-hosted services)
Might as well share my approach since it's a known pain point with this sort of stuff
#question-of-the-day Apple os and iOS
#question-of-the-day YouTube.
#question-of-the-day youtube for content, tiktok/twitch for live streams
diddy kong
#question-of-the-day i stream on my macbook pro primarily on tiktok, and also on twitch. trying to branch off into other avenues like youtube. also working on creating more video content!
#question-of-the-day i streamed to twitch and YT before but i stopped... partly cuz there wasnt any good games and i was too tired after school
It depends on the content Shorter stuff usually hits way better on TikTok, but commentary and verbal 1-liners with audio seem to do better on YouTube and honestly Instagram is crap-shoot for me
Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't
Have a amazing Sunday Fam! 🙏

Good afternoon! 👋
Good Afternoon!
is anyone else having issues with wave cast 1.2 that released today? it thru everything off, got it reconfigured and sound is static and skips....when is the wave xlr pro dropping
my wave cast usually works but now wont connect to my streaming pc says "No remote PC found" is there anything I could check or fix to help me?
now im getting no sound, they updated it and it's broken
I’m having a similar issues but with a capture card. I can’t get my sound to capture.
I have the same problem..
Is there a way to revert the update to 1.1?
Same since the update that released. It was working fine before the update.
my wave cast hasnt been connecting to my streaming pc since yesterday any fixes??
Is it up to date on both pcs?
im an idiot 😭 thank u so much
No problem, had the same issue. Tho when I updated it then came the choppy audio unfortunately.. :/
No, you’re not an idiot. You’re just learning.
I love the Gato tag ..super cute!!!!
Yaaaas :3
I’m finally hopefully starting on my homework for the day...

is there a way to send my gaming pc audio to my streaming pc while getting my streaming pc audio in my headset on my gaming pc on wave cast and wave link
I’ve been having this issue with my Elgato , to when I’m on my deskstop and no game is playing. It’s show 1440p 60 but as soon as a open a game it’s goes to 1440p 144hz and says “no signal “

To answer the #question-of-the-day
Have you heard of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV?
#question-of-the-day fighting, SUPER SMASH BROSSSS
POKOPIA!!! NOOOO I had just forgotten about that game HAHAHA I just can't justify buying a Switch 2 for only one game 
If there is any game to do it for, Pokopia is that game. 
Totally understandable though. Lol
yeah I was really tempted haha
I love that it's like a mixutre of Minecraft, Animal Crossing, and Pokemon aaaaa
The best games put together!
Mario Kart World is also on Switch 2! Final Fantasy 14 is coming to it. But yeah the game isn't going anywhere if you grab stuff later - though Switch 2 might go up in price again.
Also the thing is huge, I took it on my recent trip and it's too wide to comfortably use on the airplane tbh. Should have bought the Switch 1.
You mean the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, with an expanded free trial that now lets you play for free up to level 80, through the award winning Shadowbringers expansion?

Im sending audio from my gaming pc to my streaming pc through elgato wave cast but how do I also get audio from my streaming pc like spotify/stream alerts back into my gaming headset on my gaming pc
OMG!!! I forgot about the warlock class. I'm gonna start the season out strong!
Homework.
i just got the elgato wave 3 and its kinda hard to set up can anyone help or give tips?
how come people can hear through my mic and there is some echos
would ask for help over in #wave-audio for better visibility and maybe there is something about setting it up in community resources in the Elgato Content
#question-of-the-day For the previous two, YouTube is my main platform and mostly playing driving games, because that's what I do content on.
#question-of-the-day spotify
#question-of-the-day wave cast
#question-of-the-day the amount of debugging and fixing up behind the scenes without pushing to github for my other devs to see
#question-of-the-day I Coded my own overlays and coded the functionality of my channel point redeems but basically no one uses them, as well as my own tts system
#question-of-the-day I hand do all of my graphics and overlays. I'm very lucky to have a powerful PC that can render everything :D
anyone know why my audio is suddenly only recording on the left side of the headphones, i havent changed anything and i dont know how to fix this
#question-of-the-day the LUT’s that I make.
#question-of-the-day i’m most proud that i’ve got my canon camera setup with my live scenes❣️❤️🔥😛
Hi.
I wanted to see if there was a plugin I could use to control the microphone input level (adjusting volume up and down) that works with either Stream Deck, Stream Deck Mini or Stream Deck Neo (edit: or the pedal).
I tried downloading the Wave Link plugin and got told to get the Wave Link app/program. I installed but it just crashes/shuts down. A window shows up, empty, and then it dies.
When reinstalling it says it is already installed, but does not show up under programs you can uninstall with Windows.
*I did notice that on the Elgato site under Wave Link my devices were not listed as supported. But it feels off that the program doesn't work at all even if so.
Bottom line: Is there any plugin I can use to control mic volume?
Sorry if posting in the wrong channel.
This would be for #stream-deck
Volume controller plugin is the one from Elgato that can change the levels and mutes of system audio devices (instead of controlling wave link)
Probably could have typed that into the marketplace search box, eh? 😎
Thx found what I needed!
#question-of-the-day Probably lighting. People will notice if lighting is bad, but they don't always notice when it's well done and how much of an impact that has on the visual of stream overall. (thank you to my brothers/parents for going in together to gift me 2 key light airs back in the day)
Yeah, it's lighting and audio.
When it's right, nobody notices.
And then when they get their first camera or mic and come in with questions about.... I just spent X money on this and it looks/sounds bad...
Yeah, because the streamer you follow who is using the same mic or camera also put a lot of effort into refining their lights and room acoustics, and without that, every mic and camera will sound bad.
And all the magic software filters aren't going to replace good lighting and acoustics. No matter what Nvidia says...
Hey @bronze kettle I won a Facecam a little over a month ago and it still hasn’t arrived. Is there a way to check that it didn’t get lost or anything?
Hey Shizzy, please create a ticket via #contact-moderators with your twitch username and screenshot of the DM for confirmation.
I can check on the status for you once I'm available to. 
Done. Thanks. 🙂
Absolutely!!! Spot frickin’ on.
And now I’ll be able to have so much better control of my audio after your help today 😂
<@&918989469279993877> I'm proud to have 6 TB of highlights of LoL recordings mixed with BF6 recordings highlights (only juicers)

I have a Sony A7III Mirrorless Camera, and an Elgato HD60 internal capture card.
If I ran an HDMI from the camera output into the HD60, would I be able to use the camera for streaming purposes like that?
A capture card is just that, a capture card. It should be able to capture anything you put an input to it. Just make your camera doesnt have an auto shutoff . or time out, standby because I know some dslr cameras do have this feature.
That was a weird emote
*capture anything within its video range
I literally hit something wrong and my phone took that sentence ^ and apparently inferred that I wanted an emoji.
Hehehehe
And it came up with….
Aerial tramway…
Is anyone able to help with my HD60 X? I'm currently lost
10€
Hey it's me again stupid question can I use an elgato to screen record or I guess game capture I can think of the word right now but a PS2? I'm worried cus the 2 different connections (3 colors vs HDMI whatever)
Idk what elgato I got but uh it's the white one says game capture Ned on it
It can capture hdmi video/audio as long as the source doesn’t have HDCP.
The heck is that
I am a very dumb and literate with like game capture whatever so you're going to have to define it like a caveman for me 😭
Probably faster if you type it into Google
It's basically DRM built into HDMI
Well it says I need an analog to HDMI but even if they do that my PS2 is connected to the TV and it doesn't do HDMI so like how is that going to like show
Sorry if I'm describing this horribly 😭
All current Elgato cards only have HDMI, but you can get a composite (3 colors) to HDMI adapter and it should work
So like I was planning either thru DC or obs record the TV screen of PS2 gameplay. I want to upload images but I guess there's no channel for there to make this clearer
When I have the PS2 on them on AV mode but the capture it I would assume I have to be on HDMI mode which is whatever so
Okay that did not copyright
Big link lmao
My phone screen is bugging out 😭
But yeah that sort of adapter will work to connect it to a capture card
Like it I think I understand like like how it works I'm just like I need a beer two different modes for HDMI versus AV because the PS2 uses AV
ok I guess im confused cus OBS only shows the TV connected if I have it in HDMi mode, PS2 uses AV, with the adapter where would I plug it into..?
vus the back 3 color slots are taken by the PS2? see my confusion
You should be able to plug the PS2 with adapter into the input on the Elgato card, then connect the output to the TV in HDMI mode
is there somehwere I cnan upload images? ths would help me explain a lot better 😭 also I am not understanding sorry
Should be able to upload a pic in #capture-cards

Have a amazing Sunday Sunday ! 💖

hi, can someone please help? i want to change the colour on my 4k capture card i want it more colourful but cant seem to do it can some help please.
What do you mean "change the color on my 4K capture card" also #capture-cards for better visibility
thank you, well what i mean is i want it more colourful how do i tune each colour font i done it on the hd60 but it seems the better vision i cant get the hang of thanks again
can you show us what you mean exactly. I'm trying to visualize what's requested.
Like on the hd60 capture card I would go to settings then picture and there would be 4 bars what you can move up and down brightness, colour, contrast and hud but on the 4k x capture card can't seem to find that option do you get what I mean and thanks for helping @barren kettle
That's part of the app you're using, not the card. It's not currently part of Elgato Studio (though will likely eventually get added as it's part of the previous 4K Capture Utility). It's available in filters with other apps like OBS though.
If you mean more colourful in particular you're probably talking about Saturation
thanks, I was away. He's referring to the the color, saturation, etc... Studio doesn't have that, but filter is correct in other apps.
Thank yous so much for your help hopefully elgato does an update which I can use and yes OBS does do this but currently using a different app but I am in the middle of sorting my OBS app out thanks again people much appreciated
Does the cam link 4k also work with the logitech c922 webcam? I assume not since there is only talked about cameras themselves.
logitech software would only work with this aside from the native built in windows/mac os controls.
Camlink adapts cameras with hdmi output to be used as webcams.
A device that’s already a webcam is… already a webcam.
Ok thanks
yw!
Hello!, I've been using the ElGato Facecam (WHICH I LOVE) for my streaming, and when ever I boot up marvel rivals it lags really badly then crashes. Anyone had this issue and find a resolution?

Heyo Vic!
idk its probably cause marvel rivals is loading shaders everytime maybe try loading up the game and letting the shaders load first then go live?
#question-of-the-day for me it was playing Destiny and having fun playing with friends on Playstation. 
#question-of-the-day for me it was the release of Diablo 3 and playing together with the StreamerHouse crew aswell as DatModz back in the day (2012 and forward).
I feel so old

#question-of-the-day I busted my ankle and was bored of watching Netflix. So I bought a PS4 and decided to record my gameplay.
Thus, theshowdannyp was born! That was 10 years ago.
#question-of-the-day my buddies just wanted to game online, and I went down a rabbit hole due to suggestions. Next thing I know, through trial and error, I made content to help others, and game, talk about the products I use, and built a great community.
#question-of-the-day I was already playing games with friends. Why not stream it and see if people like what I’m doing? Literally no harm in me trying as I use all my Elgato products for other things outside of streaming as well
#question-of-the-day meeting new people with similar interest
I started streaming because I wanted to experience games I’ve never played growing up with a community who loves the games already. It’s been so wholesome and also… they all seem to like me playing spooky af games which has been fun haha
Plus everyone likes my Starfield elgato mic so why not show it off too hehe
i'll try ❤️
#question-of-the-day when our twins were born and I gave up my job to raise them, I had no time for gaming. I was exhausted, running on no sleep but “gamed vicariously” through watching Twitch streamers. When my kids were of the age that I could think about gaming again, I decided to stream to “return the favour” in case there were other gamer dads out there that could no longer game but were looking for an outlet for their gaming cravings.

What is teh problem?
yes
ahaaah
wat you having problem too?

Good morning! 👋 ☁️
Anyone know of a Wall Mount mic arm Adaptor that fits the MK.2 Wave mic arm?
Only things i can find is a post from like two years ago where someone made a custom one, or there are Etsy products for them but for the low profile ones and not the MK.2 which wouldn't work unfortunately.
Any Standard wall mount mic arms annoyingly only fit a 12mm pole and the MK.2 is 15mm. Plus i do not yet have a 3d printer so unfortunately can't do my own.
Starting to think i may just need to get the Desk plate flange mount and drill some holes into a standard metal bracket to get the job done
Anyone else counting the days when the wave pro comes out...?
Yes, … but take your time…
hey can someone help me with the elgato hd60 x im about to strike a nerve
Ask over in #capture-cards for better visibility.


Hi… I have a question, i buy a camera el gato 4k facecam, Unfortunately this product is now damaged, it was left in white led light and does not start, I am trying to contact technical support but I have not received any timely response, could someone help me on this issue any admin in charge?

That'd be a question for #camera-prompter if you're looking for community help while you wait on support.
That said I'd maybe rephrase the question when you put it in there - I'm not sure what "it was left in white led light" means here - I'm assuming a typo?
(Also the admins aren't generally support staff so aren't what you're looking for there usually)
Thanks sir
I'm live now
wrong channel. you can post in #live-now
okay can someone help me
im trying to use my elgato card to stream my witch 2
but i can only get the visual on meld studio

👆
do you need 2 pcs to do what im asking?
@sacred solar
anyone here? I have people waiting for my stream and im freaking out here 🙁
#capture-cards and I can proabably help.
omg thank you
Meld Studio doesn't do project, but you'd need to use passthrough.
ty, I was side tracked with stuff.
If i get the wave link 3 mic with wave link software, is there a way to change output to speakers via shortcut or something?
yep, using a stream deck
No way without a stream deck? 😄
not with a shortcut no, click the dropdown in the app for where you want to monitor the audio through
Damn, yea i have to test. Ordered the mic and lets see if i get used to it or stay with my audio interface
thanks !

Thx
Ask over in #capture-cards for better visibility but it's really late so there might not be many folks about.
may i know when will the wave xlr pro?? Will release in store for indian consumer..
They haven't annouched the final date for it in any markets yet, just Quarter 2.
#question-of-the-day Multi-action for sure, change scene, fade music, game and mic audio, pause/un-pause alerts, start/end stream, all at the press of a single button, Stream deck is the best piece of kit I've purchased, no competition
i really want the SD+ (not the +XL, that will be way too many buttons to put stuff on
I have the XLR one, def my favorite SD! I have had 2 MK.2s, a Neo, and now the +. After getting one, I learned the dials do much more than just volume control. The dials, screen, and slightly larger buttons has made this my main one
i wonder what plugins i have installed will work on Dials
Also have the GALLEON 100 SD, which is a SD too lol, amungust a slew of other SD compatible devices like my Scuf controller, Corsair mice, keyboards, Mobile, and the EDGE
Currently have 10 things within my SD app haha
10 decks?
i got 3 possible SDM instances (split view on my iPad) and 1 MK 2... thats it
and VSD of course
i wonder who has the most Stream Decks in here
For me it's a K55, VANGUARD 96 PRO, 2 Scimitars, Scuf Envision, GALLEON 100 SD, VSTs for 2 screens + XENEON EDGE, SD MK.2, and SD+
I'm sure someone has like 10+ dedicated SDs lol
yeah
more than likely staff. lol
I want a Galleon...

Get one!
can't right now. I have to behave with spending.
:c
I KNOW!!!! 🙁
lemme check how much Galleon costs in my currency
3 890kr for a Galleon... dayum
$500 CAD here. It's not a cheap board - if you don't need the Stream Deck display, the Vanguard 96 is usually about half the price and uses the same MLX Pulse switches, with 5 G-Keys that are Stream Deck programmable on the left edge (and one co-pilot key that's been taken for a 6th by defualt). The Vangaurd Pro 96 is the same thing but with Hall Effect switches. Not quite a full Stream Deck like the Galleon but depending on what you're doing with the keys it might fit the bill.
I've also seen the Vanguard on sale a few times
#question-of-the-day currently actually my own plugin for mouse control
It's been so so useful for speeding up a bunch of workflows
I only want the Galleon for Diablo IV
You can use any of our Stream Decks instead since its very likely using hot-keys
Love my vanguard 96
Galleon is like $500 Australian 🤣
And not worth it when I’ve already got like two stream deck
Just contemplating if upgrade to the new Elgato devices or if I stick it out
Would be nice to have onboard effects processed by the device itself
I'm waiting for XLR Pro myself I think so I can run my consoles into the Line In via Chat Link
Been contemplating upgrading from my hd 60s to something newer they’ve got a sale on at the moment for the 4K S but not X
Ah, 4K S would still be a notable upgrade from HD60 S. 60 S has no high refresh rate or resolutions above 1080p at all.
4K X usually goes on sale a few times through the year though, if you think you'd need the HDMI 2.1 modes later.
Yeah would’ve been nice if the X was on sale but it’s like $300 at the moment I think here in Australia from what I’ve seen
yeah, 315 USD or 435 AUD in my country 😛
Hahah
something to consider when it eventually goes on sale for me whenever that may be
I bought the HD60 Pro when it first came out, but never used it since I upgraded to 1440p monitor at basically the same time XD still unused in box hehe
I have to eventually try out the new wave link I haven’t kept up with it
Do like now you can use any mic etc cus before I was using alternative software but was tacked on with garbage
I know!!!
my hd60x does not display my ps5 on my monitor anyone know how to fix
#capture-cards is the place to ask 🙂
support gato 10/10, excelent service !!!
hello everyone do you guys have any problems with the stream deck + not working with discord? i have my discord chat set up so i can adjust microphone volumes for my friends but sometimes it doesn't work at all. it says NO USERS FOUND or CONNECT TO SRVER. I've deleted the plug in many times and reinstalled but it still seems to not work after a couple of days. any help is really appreciated

Is it Worth buying the xlr dock mk2 over the physical Wave XLR mk2? If I already own a stream deck plus and the original Wave XLR? of course you lose out on the mute functionality the MK.2 dock misses out on but obviously can be rebinded of course
Honestly it's pretty much personal preference, if you're only ever using it with the one PC. The dial does allow some basic hardware control on Wave XLR compared to the Dock which is all Stream Deck/Wave Link controlled, but if you're always going to be running it on PC or mac with the app, that's not usually an issue. Beyond the hardware mute, and direct dial settings you already noted they're pretty much identical performance wise (though Wave XLR does allow settings to be saved to the hardware if you're switching it betweeen PCs or something, Dock is software config only excluding DSP iirc).
That'd be a question for #stream-deck community help channel. I can't say I've run into it personally, but I've not really used that plugin too much lately either.
Noted thanks 🙂
Hey guys does Gato sell a webcam mount I want a higher angle looking downward
Look at the master mount gear on the site, there's a few things that'll work like the poles, desk stand or even wall mount
This wave link software makes me want to take a drill to my pc
real 😭 still has a long way to go even despite it's apparent huge upgrade

I am just trying to meet some new gaming friends. I am in my 30's and just trying to meet people who like to game. Struggle with Anxiety, Depression and Bipolar and I only say that because I may come off as introverted or antisocial, but I am not. I love talking to people and I really enjoy gaming but usually when in voice chat just prefer to talk about winning the game.

im so lost .
Hi so lost. I’m Galactic. Nice to meet you!

Exhausted still. Need to start homework for the day. Finals week is this week.
time to study!!!
No kidding. 🤣🤣

im having issues but idk if its the capture card or the hdmi - usbc adapter
and reddit is 0 help xD
That'd be a question for #capture-cards if you're looking for community help.
Though I don't recall seeing a question about USB-C adapter on the reddit today either - may have just missed it, been a busy day.
When you post in capture cards though, please describe what the actual issues you're seeing are, what capture card you're using specifically, and what device you're actually capturing from (eg laptop, handheld like a Steam Deck, iPhone, Android, etc).
i fixed it
sometimes saying the question outoud helps xD
Hi there.
I just want to ask the community a question.
I recently notice that every time i start up my computer, my input will automatically set the volume to 0 in the windows sound setting. I am using a third party mic, passing through wave link 3.0 and set the mic to the a Chat Mixer (Where discord and default communication is set).
Is there anyone experience this bug or is just windows?
There may be some app or windows setting changing your device volume.
Wave devices have gain lock which prevents this.
Hi everyone! Sorry if this is the wrong section. I'm having an issue with Wave Link 3.0: whenever I go full screen while screen sharing on Discord, my friends hear an echo of the stream's audio. This only happens in Discord. It seems like Discord is capturing the audio coming from the interface into the system, which shouldn't be happening. Any ideas?
Yeah that’s a discord issue, since they don’t give you an audio source option for the full screen stream.
Workaround are share a specific app, or if you tell discord to share a device, that screen will allow an audio device selection. Then you can create a mix in wave link to use for the stream.
(Use OBS virtual camera to create a device for discord to share.
It's a pity, of course. It's surprising that so few people talk about such an unpleasant issue. I have one more question then. Is there a way to switch the microphone from stereo to mono mode in Wave Link? I've tried using plugins, but unfortunately, they didn't help. It's also a minor detail that's easily fixed in other programs, but I'm just curious if there's a way to convert the sound directly
I mean, I talk about it all the time… as people come here wondering what the heck is going on…
But yes it would be nice if discord just set an audio source option. They used to…
Anyway, yeah currently wave link doesn’t support multi-channel interfaces correctly and the workaround for now until they fix it, is to use a plugin that can pan a signal to move it back to center.
Somebody put up one in the marketplace called mono-something —I forget the exact name— it has a lot of yellow in the interface.
I have one called protility that is free and you can find by google easily.
Question, can eq presets be used with wave link 3.0?
The eq plugin is the thing that saves and loads presets.
Wave link hosts plugins.
Appreciate you. I think i have just been dumb and expected the presets i had on the previous wave link to just be there. 🫠 so just a matter of redownloading the preset i believe?
If the preset files were removed is something… then I guess you would have to download or save them again.
But open the ui of the eq plugin and click its menu to load a preset. Same way you did it in other wave link versions.
🫡🫡 will give it a go. Thank you!

Anyone know how I fix my game icon's vanishing, it disappeared randomly last night mid stream...
Iv no idea where to find the red icon it had to replace it.

BUG in the latest update of WaveLink for MacOS.. Ever since doing the update, the WaveLink window continues to pop-up on its own at random.. VERY annoying, every 5'ish minutes or so I have to close it again
As JnTracks replied to you earlier in the #wave-audio channel, bugreports go on the reddit thread, and please don't crosspost 🙂
lol how dumb.. I'm glad we have a discord where we can't report issues..
I'll see myself out of this then
As Ochatach says this is community help - staff are sometimes about but for reliable reporting put it on the Wave Link megathread on Reddit or reach out to #official-tech-support as staff don't regularlly monitor the Discord for issues.
Sigh. Just got my Facecam 4K delivered today. Elgato: "UP TO 30% OFF NEXT WEEK"
me when i purchase something and the company throws a 20% off deal: AW COME ON REALLY (insert company name here) YOU JUST GOTTA PUT A DEAL RIGHT AFTER I BUY THE PRODUCT?
I mean, what's the return policy on things delivered with 7 days.
A good question to politely ask Elgato sales support, I think. Tell them basically what you told us. Be gracious; see what they say.
"Hey support, send me 30% back or I'll post myself crying on the internet in 4k60."
lol perhaps not xd
Nah, it's all good. Just such incredible timing...
I would still ask them :3
I did the same when I ordered my Macbook Air, 2 days after delivery it dropped 240 euro in price, asked the store if they could do something so I wouldn't have to send it back to order the same laptop again
Urgh, I don't wanna have to speak to Jeff Bezos.

allo
He just bought it. Now put it on sale.
What if we released an old product.
Nope, I'm not buying anything the rest of the year.
UNLESS
it's a rug... or maybe socks.
Or one of the marketplace neon signs >.>
I mean, my test lab always needs more gear. It's hard to troubleshoot the older cards without one on hand 😄
i still need a capturecard and more lights
I need lights too tbh
My rug alert went off.
What’s going on here, people; is it time?
I may or may not have evidence
Elgato Week kicks off May 18 and runs through May 24, with savings up to 30% on Stream Deck, capture cards, cameras, lights, and audio gear. We'll be live on Twitch all week to answer your questions and run giveaways.
Shop the deals: https://www.elgato.com
Get the Elgato Drops plugin: https://marketplace.elgato.com/product/elgato-drops-42a3c160...

I'm saving cause I have too... not want too.
I agree with Arcsane. I could always use gear, and test.
yikes... maybe.
I love the hop!
same
im trying to get a plug in for my stream deck and it keeps endlessly having me sign in
try a different broswer or clear your cache etc...
So I just got a 4ks game capture and I need help setting it up with my ps5 which chat would I use for that
That'd go to #capture-cards . But there's also a guide at https://www.elgato.com/ca/en/explorer/products/capture/how-to-set-up-game-capture-4k-s-with-playstation-5-and-playstation-5-pro/ specifically for that setup.
I’ve tried that and for hours I’ve- wait I’ll text you there
<@&581565551495741448>
Why, yes. Are you a bot in need of a sucker like me? I sure would love a GFX artist.
/s pls no ban.
That's a lot of Stream Deck!
Had to make sure nothing was shown…
Yes!!! 
No button to inquire about the Area Rug? For shame.
Also, where's the SuperMacro to @ brito and yell where's my rug at XD
Hello, I have a problem with the capture card and I need some advice. The blue light is on and the screen in the obs is dark.
Capture card questions go to the #capture-cards communith help section. When posting ideally add some more detail - what card you're using, what you're capturing with the card (eg PS4, Xbox, etc), if you're on mac or PC, and if the card works in the Elgato Studio app , or is black there too
Hahahahahahaha!
not yet...
Is there an issue with downloading any of the apps? On this page -- https://www.elgato.com/us/en/s/downloads
I'm on MacOS Tahoe and using either Chrome or FireFox. I select my product from the download list and Mac button on the right is already selected but nothing is happening prompting me to download it. Instead I am presented with a CTA for "Test beta software", why? How come I just can't download the app for product I need?
Looks fine to me in Firefox.
Try cleaning cache and cookies in the browser. Might need a full refresh
If still no go, check with #official-tech-support - could be a regional CDN hiccup
i cant wait to upgrade my stream deck + to the giant version 😄
i would love to but i'm not even sure that it has been released in Australia as yet. Can't find it anywhere!
#question-of-the-day I found it simple and practical for me and called it just default and for the mobile one (Stream Deck iPad) 1.1 and (Stream Deck iPad 2) 2.1 😅
#question-of-the-day alas I am boring lol. My profile names are very utilitarian
#question-of-the-day my Profile names are very descriptive, CameraControl, LightControl, WoWMacro1-3 etc :3
#question-of-the-day I’ll let uk when I get mine!
#question-of-the-day on some profiles yes
#question-of-the-day yes and the most used is “Main” and “Games”
#question-of-the-day Oddly enough, I have one profile for OBS Studio, named OBS Studio, and another profile for Streamlabs Desktop, named Streamlabs Desktop.
I know, I know. Wild, right? 
How do i fix my elgato software from green screening and distorting to normal
I am having an issues with my stream deck and discord. Everytime I try to use the mute/deafen buttons on my stream deck it pops up on discord asking to "Authorize" so I click "Authorize" then the pop up goes away. I press the button again and the pop up appears again. What is going on?
Hi!
Do many people experience issues with the new Wave 3.0?
no
Awesome, thank you. It’s easy to get skewed reports online
just bought the Galleon 100 SD 🙏

Turns out Razer advertising their keycaps as resistant to years of wear for the paint chipping, only to have not only the paint chip, but also the stem breaking on the left arrow key, then trying to get replacements for the keycaps under warranty only to be told that "wear and tear" isn't covered was the last straw
why in god's name am I banned from the Corsair discord
?????
it's been literal years i cannot remember why
I'll try to track it down, surely they have a reason in a bot somewhere
very nice got mine a few months back! so good!
okay so one chat with the mods on an alt later (not my proudest moment) and turns out I was just generically banned. No logged real reason. Fluke maybe? Either way the ban was removed so we chilling
Nice! How does it type?
good good
And I'm guessing that the stream deck keys are just the membrane ones?
the ones on the vanguard 96 pro ones are slightly better imo
not the scissor keys?
yeah its literally just a streamdeck+ in a keyboard
💀
at least the SD+ has 4 knobs & a touchribbon
wait no SD+ is 8-key
what???
meh
common consensus: the SDXL+ is DIABOLICAL.
oh yeah it is
36 keys? 6 knobs? 1.5x touch ribbon? jesus christ
I'm using the SDXL as-is and even 32 keys is plenty for what I do
im fine with just my galleon lol
fair nuff
i have a xeneon edge too tho
you figure out a way to nuke the copilot button from orbit tho?
i am not a big fan of clankers 🥀
yeah for me its just a windows key
I reckon that might be useful for lefties? I guess?
im left handed and i just my keyboard like a normal person lol
holy crap microsoft actually respecting my wishes for once?
in literally any other circumstance I'd send the image
but you can just rebind the copilot key to search for once
might actually be useful - or I'll just use iCUE and Windhawk to neuter copilot button presses in general and make it a macro or smthn idk
...
this is the FLAGSHIP (pun intended) Corsair keyboard, and it's webhub only?
😭
still wild tho
how else am I gonna get that sweet sweet wallpaper engine sync 🥀 (joking)
ikr? you'd think they'd have a start minimized in tray option
Does your iCUE NOT start minimized in tray? I thought that was the default
hi so is it necessary to buy a elgato capture card and stream my video from my pc that has a RTX 5060 to my laptop and then stream on yt (high-demand games) ( i believe this doesnt count as tech help)
Kind of up to you.
The most stressful part of it all is encoding which es essentially free on GPUs since it uses silicon separate from what renders games… but compositing the scene together with OBS or whichever app does load the computer a little, depending on how complicated it is.
That said, I play VR so every % of performance is meaningful to me, so I have a second PC for recording or streaming.
(And VR also encodes video to send wireless to my headset, so I’m quite stressful on the encoding chip)
Please remove that, links like that is only allowed in #introduce-yourself
<@&581565551495741448>
#question-of-the-day no but i use numbers icon on stream deck button to switch pages and profiles

Good evening! 👋
Ended up buying a wave xlr mk2 looking forward to replacing it with my original wave xlr
The new post in #1290796142019219457 does NOT have any elgato devices so it breaks the post guidelines
Also it’s self promo I think

Good morning!
I woke up at 6:30 to play TTS with some buddies until 8:30am. Terraforming Mars!
it was fun
we had to save the game for next sunday morning.
this is a favorite of my wife and me.
(the physical one)
our table needs to be bigger

Love my new wave xlr mk2 I got last night on Amazon
Probably could’ve stayed with my mk1 but dsp and other new features were too good to pass up
Plus was on sale so 🤣
I can't wait to upgrade either ;3
my buddy flipped it this morning. lol
nice!
I love when my elgato software still doesnt work after getting help from elgato support 🙂
This is a community server. If you want community people to help you, we can. But if it is something that support is still helping you with, it’s recommended that you just stick to the communication with support. #official-tech-support
I did go to the support team and the help i received over the phone didnt really help
so im going to them again hoping for a different result
and i know this is a community server
Elgato: Just downloaded and installed the latest driver. 3.1.1. And in the second time since I bought this equipment in November, an update has messed up my setup. How can you you guys get this right? This is ridiculous and your incompetence is truly amazing. How much did you test this ? Not enough. My streamdeck + no longer works right.
oh, and I cannot post in your "official-tech-support" channel.
Read the channel please. It has all the links you need to get in touch with official support
Has anyone recently did the firmware update for the Elgato MK2 2.2.2? I just did the install tongiht and it changed all my settings and now the exposure seems to be impossible to set even after rolling back the updates multiple times. Any help is appreciated before having to open a ticket.
When does the sale start.. ? 👀
Happy Elgato Week!!
It started ?
yup, its live in the UK
I don t see anything on amazon co uk 👀
seems to be only on the elgato website
Jaaaaas 
sale time!
I was watching the video
She walks in and asks what hes doing
"Im just watching these deals"
the next post loads
#announcements message
I thought this image was the video that the audio was still going
Huh this is staying on screen pretty long
Hello, can somebody help me with audio routing issues using an elgato capture card on obs? if no, where can somebody help?
cheers
No sale on key light is unlucky, I need that
do you have to get this drops plugin to vote lol
Nah, I just clicked on the website 🙂
oh damn, key lights arent in my region rip
well yes the bundle for 2, not just for 1
Elgato stream today 
Is the new stream deck + xl going on sale?😔
Probably not in any region no
Vesa 3d printed mount for a Monitor Arm!
Sometimes I wish Twitch chat would let you post photos
That is pretty sweet. Is the schematic free to dl?
nope. it's printed and created by Naaackers
He does a lot of beta stuff, and pretty cool dude.
Ty for the info!
naaackers makes the most convenient 3d prints for the elgato products. I have his clip for the mic.
He’s really awesome!!!
So is AkosinCreations
definitely super creative with what he prints to make the products work better.
Yes!!!
so i'm having an issue with my video card with it "not recognizing my device", yes I tried to put in the support ticket but the number thing isn't working
hey, does anyone offer help screening a stream for audio and quality?
like jumping into a live stream and helping fine tune the settings?
Number thing?
But if you're having issues with a capture card, best to ask in #capture-cards
anyone else having spotify plugin issues today?
The sale for The 4K60S is the 20th to what day?
<t:1779292800:F>
is there any fix to not being able to update my stream deck xd? i think ive gotten that update message each time i started my pc since 2-3 months back, pressed install each time but didnt care checking
but the version number it says i have is very old in comparison
Yes, if you're on an early verion of 7 there's an issue where the auto updater quietly fails on some setups, If that happens go grab the installer from www.elgato.com/downloads and run that to update past the problem verison and the issue should go away
does that reset my buttons etc that i have, cuz i had this happen one time before and it was super annoying
No it shouldn't. You can back up your Stream Deck profiles if you want to be safe though. https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360048424432-Elgato-Stream-Deck-How-to-Back-Up-and-Restore-Profiles
Heads up, Stream Deck 7.4.2 is out
Anyone knows when the wave xlr pro is available for buying?
we're all waiting for it
Sometimes in Quarter 2, so like the next 5-6 weeks.
hey i just downloaded the elgato wave link 3.0 i set up my mic and headphones and it worked i went to shower came back and every app that i have put there i cant hear nothing from(like dis chrome my own mic which i wanna test if the plugins make it sound better etc.) if you know how to fix pls ping me
try rebooting wave link 3.0
i tried and even restarted my pc but still cant hear any sound from the apps that is chosen
do you have your mix selected via the ear icon and the speak/headset connected
im preety sure yes i can hear all the pther sounds on my pc just cant the things that i have the wave link and it is the right mic and headphones
You don't have the apps muted by chance do you?
no
theyre all at full volume
screen shots help
ok
Hop over to #wave-audio to share screen shots.
ok thanks i send my full wave link ss in #wave-audio
You're welcome.
hello i have done the wavelink 3.0 update today and i have directed Discord to my voice chat channel however i can only hear the actual app nouises like conecting and disconnecting but not actually the voices of the poeple in chat. Ony the app sounds. Any ideas?
Discord's Voice and Video settings override Wave Link / Windows Mixer. Set the voice and video output in Discord to the same Wave Link channel from inside the app's own settings.
i have done this also. Can here the sounds in the correct channel. But no voices. I can see the vccoices green icon when they speak in app but no voices to wavelink
It’s a 1 day sale?
my bad, I misread. The sale is the whole event, dependent on stock.
Ok
will the Stream Deck + XL go on sale?
choppy audio ever fixed? i've been literally working on this nightly and can't get it figured out. if my audio is set to "all audio" on the game pc it's super choppy. if i set it to just my game (Fortnite) then it sounds fine.
but obviously I want to be able to hear everything from this pc.
i've had this thought since i purchased my elgato capture card, but wouldn't it be an incredibly profitable and sought after situation for elgato to make a server-hub or profile system so that people could set up keyboard controllers and controllers for their trusted friends to be able to connect to elgato servers -> local elgato app -> elgato device -> wired controller connection to actual console? the electric engineering on that wouldn't be too complex, the same way that 3rd party controller manufacturers have been able to make chips and circuit boards for multi-use bluetooth and wired controllers for pc/xbox/ps/switch for years. i for one would be incredibly interested even if i needed to pay a monthly or yearly fee. there are a lot of people i know i would be interested in seeing playing coop nintendo switch games, coop vr games, and everything else which two or more people could do if you invited them over to play console games, but at the complete convenience of just the guy who has the console and whoever is paying for the service.
not that i'm one to know the correct market timing for sales and all, but it makes sense to me that significant profit could be made by releasing this with a sale on capture cards and maybe a free trial of this service alongside them
i've been curious about this since the literal day that i got my capture card and it's always kept in the back of my mind as a totally doable thing which is a whole new way of playing games and i can see game developers having a whole new realistic market because of it
just wanted to share it here, hopefully get some credit, but most importantly see it seen

Been awhile, just wanted to say good morning and happy hump day
Can anyone explain the difference between 4K Capture Utility and Elgato Studio? Which one is better?
Elgato studio replaced 4kCU at some point like a year or so ago.
Ah, okay. I wasn't sure and couldn't find info anywhere about it. Thanks!
Studio is still missing some features from 4KCU like Flashback recording, but is bulit on a new engine with high refresh rate support, has newer firmware files, supports newer hardware like 4K S, and doesn't run into issues with the new NVidia drivers like 4KCU. Typically Studio is the better option unless you need the flashback recording or voiceover at the moment (and those later ones will likely make their way to Studio too, based on what the team's said on stream.
I don't know why the video looks a bit dark washed out in the software and enabling HDR just makes it look very washed out. Is there any way to fix that?
That's a question for #capture-cards . It'll help to know what specific card you're using and what you're capturing, and if your monitor on the computer is HDR enabled or not.
Alright, thanks
Thanks! Just sent my request their way!

I'm so mad at myself I bought a 4K S not knowing there was gonna be a deal😭

you can report to #contact-moderators
thanks! he sent no DM so maybe it's nothing sus

can someone help me?
i just bought a elgato 4k x capture card
and for the power cable
i have to plug it into my streaming pc, not my gaming pc.
but the issue is i dont have a usb c power outlet
i only have usb
what can i do? i got a usb c to usb converter but the issue is it shows a diff color (meaning the power is too little) so is there something i can buy?
can anyone help me?
would a Anker USB-C to USB 3.1 Female Adapter (10Gbps) cable work?
USB c is a connector. It’s just the shape of the connector.
And that’s a data cable, not just power.
But yes, a cable with the connectors you need is the preferred option (usb C on one end and usb A on the other, in your case)
But an adapter will work if it’s wired for enough data speed. Needs that 10gbps or faster.
wait so
if i get a conveter to usb c to usb
it will work
the color will be blue
vs orange
If the speed is enough.
The color is…. Kind of a suggestion at best
yeah but i want blue
Manufacturers might not follow the convention
i think that means its not giving enough power
so i should get a usb c to usb?
ur saying but it has to be 10Gbps
USB C to USB A. 10gbps or faster
usb is usb a? right
i dont know that much about pcs LMAO
can i send a video here
or no
The rectangular connector you’re calling “usb” is usb a.
There is also B and a few others even less popular.
USB A is the typical one from years ago, still popular on most computer motherboards.
USB C is the new type that all phones use, is typical for charging now… etc.
They are both usb connectors.
Get a usb c to usb a cable with at least 10gbps speed
ahh
ok bet
i was thinking of my cable that ends of usb cs
and then i get a add on where you plug the end of the cabble into the converter thing it in and it "turns into" a usb a
USB c is the new universal connector.
All kinds of things can use it, from power only, for charging, to high speed data, even display port and thunderbolt can run over a usb c connector.
Depending on how the cable is wired.
there's also Micro-USB
is thats what its called?
That’s why we have to specify,,, you need it to be a 10gbps or faster, with the connectors your need
Micro usb. And mini usb
but the best option is
Were different from each other. (And garbage)
getting a new cable
with one having usb c and then usb a
ima go to bestbuy now
so i get a
usb c to usb a
how many feet*
does it matter
We like a cable instead of an adapter, because the adapter is another point of possible failure.
good point
so a usb c to usb a?
with 10 gbps
and higher
Yes. Verify the speed.
Some cables could be just usb 2.0 speed or maybe don’t have data wires at all, if they are for charging only.
So check the speed
ok bet ill make sure to ask the guy to give me 10 gbps or higher
but that should work right?
Yup

be back in 15
and ill let you know
so ima get a usb c to usb a cable thats 10 gpbs or higher
And I didn’t even realize this was general chat.
Ya welcome, everybody!
this is right right
i wanna make sure
i dont wanna go to best buy again 😆
Yes

⚠️ Since last update, Wave Link window randomly opens by it self 😩 (ps. I use Stage Manager).
also
☎️ Calls through FaceTime can't be heard loud enough. The mic somehow goes down in volume. I check every single setting, and the volume should be loud enough.
Wave Link Version 3.1.1 (2484)
macOS 26.5 (25F71)
Wave Link questions go in #wave-audio or you can follow the links in #official-tech-support to reach out to the support team.
The randomly opening thing is a new bug folks seem to have hit on 26.5's update though. Team was looking into it - at least one user reported they had to downgrade OBS of all things to stop it, but otherwise should be fixed in an update.

Heyo! 👋

is there a channel for creator collab?
1951FF 
Stream Deck
Why 
#question-of-the-day Stream Deck Mobile, free, useful, cant go wrong with it, its like a trial for a physical Stream Deck!
For me: Make controlling the stream or recording way more efficient! Espeically those full screen games that don't respond well when you tab out to control things.
#question-of-the-day wave:3 ya need good audio.
#question-of-the-day Stream Deck Neo (especially when it's on sale) gets you the most bang for your buck regarding buttons if you're on a budget! Seconding Wave:3 bc audio is key
like exactly what i thought but was too lazy to write that
#question-of-the-day wave3 - good audio is priority one
What's going on? I can't log into my Elgato account or reset my password.
Okay, I can get into the main site. Is the marketplace down or something?
#question-of-the-day Either the Facecam or the Wave:3. It's a bit of a tossup for me. Both products are excellent quality with wide compatibility.
#question-of-the-day it’s a tie between the Wave 3 and a stream deck. The convince of being able to remotely control your scenes without having to have OBS (or similar platform) as the only source is amazing. On the other hand, the Wave 3 mic has been one of my best investments for not only streaming, but online meetings and voice calls in discord and on my computer
The Wave:3 is wonderful for video conferencing. I can log in with confidence that everyone will hear me clearly.
It’s almost too good sometimes. It can hear my baby monitor going off and it also picks up my 3D printer. And yes, I do have all of the filters on, haha
Yeah, same. Whenever I stream on Linux, I have to remember to turn the mic input down.
Hey yall I really need some help setting up a dual pc streaming setup, but I am really lost in what I need to do and no video is helping me at all
#question-of-the-day you can have all the RGB you want...
If you don't have good camera lighting, all of it doesn't matter.
My suggestion, the keylight
#question-of-the-day id recommend the stream deck, dont know how many times this product has made my life easier from switching applications to controlling pretty much everything.
The Stream Deck XL was legitimately a game-changer for me. I have a full:
- Soundboard setup, running via the Stream Deck software itself (not Voicemod or Soundpad!)
- Discord control system, including buttons to mute/unmute friends close to me and to see chat indicators
- Media control system including my Wave Link output sources, volume, and Spotify
- Dedicated Medal clip and long recording buttons in there too, since I'm mainly there
- Section for system stat readouts, with binds to go to Task Manager, the NVIDIA App, or AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition, depending on stats
- **AN ENTIRE PANIC BUTTON FOR IF SOMEONE COMES INTO MY ROOM UNANNOUNCED THAT, IN ORDER, MUTES MY EXTERNAL MIC, MINIMIZES EVERY WINDOW, MUTES AND DEAFENS ON DISCORD AS SEPARATE ACTIONS, PAUSES ANYTHING THAT MAY HAVE BEEN PLAYING, SWITCHES TO AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT DECOY PROFILE, AND LOCKS MY COMPUTER **
- System tools section to run scripts to fix some common issues I have with my programs
- Power options section to easily shutdown, sleep, hibernate, restart, or lock my PC at the press of a single button
- Area of widgets to track the timezones of close friends to figure out what time it is for them
I'd certainly say it has made my life infinitely more convenient
And that's without any knobs or screen widgets! Now that I have the Galleon 100 SD, I have access to knobs and screen widgets, so sky's the limit there!
The best advice I can give though is such: if you're considering a Stream Deck, use the Stream Deck Mobile app on your phone with a stand. It's a phenomenal way to emulate something like the Stream Deck Mini for completely free, to try before you buy. From there, consider your needs.
If you were getting by just fine with those 6 keys, but want to be able to use your phone at the same time, Stream Deck Mini. Need more space? Stream Deck with ribbon keys (thank me later, the regular keys feel mushy because they're membrane). Need knobs, a touchribbon, additional USB ports, or even an XLR input? Stream Deck+ (with the USB port or XLR input stand if you need that). Need even more space? Stream Deck XL. Need THE ABSOLUTE MAX with all the space of the Stream Deck XL and more, and knobs and/or a touchribbon? Stream Deck XL+.
Are the knobs on the XL+ just for audio?
No you can use them with tons of different plugins and features
like what?
Anything can be bound to the left, right, or push just like any key, or they can have stacks or wheels of actions to be scrolled through.
Kinda not emotionally ready for the last stream today... The streams have been helping me get through the day at work... Next week is going to be quiet without elgato in my ear
Anyone keeping up with the streams have they hinted at all about when the wave xlr pro is actually coming out
Q2, so soon (TM)

StreamDeck app on mobile devices. You can use up to 64 keys (with the paid/Pro version).
how to import save.wavelink in 3.0 ?
And if you use a iPad you can use split screen to get 128 buttons
👍
getting my XL tomorrow. hope to get it to control my Yaesu FT710 radio.
Hope everyone has a great weekend
Discovered a slight pickle I'm in with my PC. Wanted to add USB-C slots to plug more devices in, but I've already taken up the one main PCI-E slot for my 4K Pro, lol
I will say, it's less of a pickle than I first thought, but in short I was trying to figure out where to plug in my new Facecam haha
Good news is that in a pinch you can replace the cables on any current Facecam with a USB 3.0 or faster USB-C to USB-A cable.
Nice, I'll keep that in mind! I also have the SD+ so at some stage I'll confirm if that will work, but I can definitely figure it out from there (humorously, the USB-C slot I do have is occupied by the cable for the SD+)
Needless to say it got me thinking a lot about what cables I need lol
Note that the cable for the Stream Deck+ is only USB 2.0 (unless you have the one with the hub built in). Most of the decks only need USB 2.0, and the ones that need 3.0 usually need it for power rather than data
is there any way to disbale the light on the mk2 webcam? I set up the prompter but the light on the camera sticks out the entire time
Fair point! To clarify, I mean the USB Hub for the SD+ haha
I think I just saw a plethora of Stream Deck XLs used in Biggin Hill for F1 remote production, I don't think I can put an image on this chatroom but it was very interesting 🙂
Not in general chat but you should be able to post in #1290811392873594970
Well have a Good saturday hope yaall doing great!
Can i connect my, Stream deck mobile with a cable to my pc for more stable connection?
I know the option exists, never tried it though
In theory I know it works with iPhones, and I imagine it's the same with Android
In practice, good luck getting the iOS USB drivers to work
anyone else using the toggle audio devices plugin and having issues where it doesn't swap? since its elgato week i was thinking maybe if there was a plugin thats better that the code would work for it might be worth checking out
#question-of-the-day I would say the discord plugin for one of the twitch streamers I watch, she was so happy when I told her about it
but for me, the twitch one where i could send messages via a button
i have the elgato 4k X and my xbox wont let me do 1440p and 120hz at the same time
Yeah. I did that last week during my show and it worked pretty well.
Hey everyone. Just got an elgato 4k and I'm having some issues with connecting it from my switch to my pc. Where is the best place to get some help?
thanks
You’re welcome.
#question-of-the-day smart profiles
I see people that don't even know they exist and they are SO powerful, immediately being able to have a contextually aware profile when you focus an app or game is so good
Yeah it works good but im thinking of buying one but im not a streamer but i need a bigger than the mobile one
HAPPY HAPPY Sunday EH! 🙏
you can unlock more buttons in Mobile with SDM Pro (there is a one time purchase if you want)
Ehh mabye i will buyi t
Hey !
Is there any way I can talk to a moderator about the stream deck?
There is a feature I requested YEARS ago and that I am still waiting.
it was only added partially, you can set wallpapers in the stream deck app but I always asked if it was possible to put an animated picture instead of a still image as this wallpaper. It would be incredible if we could display a website too so we would be able to display anything. It could be wired to external services and events etc (like signal or open rgb).
I asked for this like 3 or 4 years ago. Many times but never got any awnser. Would you mind giving some info on if this is even possible or planned ?
Thanks !
Mods have no control over feature requests actually getting implemented or not. That decision is entirely up to Elgato.
You can always resubmit your request here #feature-request
The mods here are only responsible for moderation of this Discord.
Yea maybe mods are not the right ones. But is there any devs or person on the elgato team I could speak to directly on this server ? Cause I aleready submitted this 3 years ago and mulitple time with no response never 😥
They are all off for the US Memorial Day holiday. All you can do is resubmit you request using the #feature-request channel.
Again, I can’t speak as to why your particular request was never implemented. They don’t share that with us.
yea you know i'm not in a hurry i waited 3 years, i can wait 3 days 🙂
Okay thanks !
You’re welcome.
Hey guys. I bought Elgato 4k PRO for my Alienware Desktop before the Memorial Day.
I'm not getting 4k Webcam because it has 4k30fps, so I'm sticking to my 1080p60fps for my webcam.
The Facecam 4K is 4K60
True, but it has HDR in 4K30.
Are Elgato marketplace accounts separate from our main Elgato website accounts?
So I just spent $250 on the Elgato 4KS and when I hit record it just crashes instantly. Anyone have any tips?
CAD or USD?
Oh, got it. Never mind. I forget Australia's currency is also dollars.
I thought you got scammed for a sec.
What are you recording with?
How about OBS?
Any progress here?
Oh dear god it looks like crap
This is why I'm so reticent to use OBS, I have no idea why it looks so low res and washed out
I don't think OBS is picking up the HDR
Oh, you have to set up HDR manually in OBS. https://www.elgato.com/us/en/explorer/products/capture/record-hdr-gameplay-with-obs-studio-and-elgato/
Here's the article I used.
But if you leave the OBS settings as they are and disable HDR on your console, it'll look fine.
That's just how HDR looks on sRGB. Washed out and dull.
Haha ok I was able to fix that and then encountered so many more issues
Mainly now the audio is echoing and repeating on every recording I make.
This is why I was hoping to just use Elgato Studio.
And the frame rate is terrible even though I manually adjusted it myself
Yeah, OBS is something you have to spend a lot of time with to get it dialed in for your specific needs. I suggest joining their Discord. It's quite active and they can provide way better assistance than I.
There's one other thing I'd like you to try.
Oh, I can't do embeds here. I'll just ping you in another channel.
@valid rampart when is partnerships open... its been closed for 2 years
Don't tag admins, it's clearly stated in the rules. When partnerships open it will be posted in #elgato-partnership, no question about it will be answered.
can u paypal me 10000 dollars than
Time to prepare the bank for the XLR pro... Who's ready?!
All my stream decks are animated. GIFs do it at least for screen saver thing where the wallpaper normally would be. Maybe could work for yourself,m
?**
i really want to be able to have animated wallpaper and ideally it could be controlled by a plugin or we could put a webpage so we can put anything. Right now only still images are working for the background
Might be better to look at the xeneon edge. Putting a webpage would require an active page at all times and the stream decks aren't built for what you're possibly asking them to do and would look horrible given the break up of buttons. Xenon edge does have a widget for web pages if that helps
does anyone have any recommendations for microphones if youre sharing a room with another person? i really want the elgato wave 3 which i have returned once where i tried the wavelink software with that AI noise suppresion thing on max aswell as discords noise suppresion. the mic sounded really nice but i was concerned that it would pick up too much noise but now i see that it went down from 170 dollars to 115 dollars on amazon and i kinda wanna buy it again. can anyone recommend me something else which is also high quality but not too much money thats a dynamic mic instead?
oh it has to be white aswell ❤️🩹
i bought the fifine am8 which sounds fine but it just feels cheap so i dont really wanna keep it
For a room with someone else, you need a dynamic mic as close to you as possible kinda with as low gain as possible to prevent anyone else from being picked up
yeah i realized that but what would be a good option? id be willing to pay like 150
Wave DX is amazing ❤️ love mine so much
my dynamic one rn doesnt pick up much noise around me which i love
ill go check it out! thanks
hey, in the video im watching about the mic i hear a constant buzzing sound, does this also apply to your mic?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-jXb4eqO0g
Nope
If you're the same room and find the dynamic is still picking stuff up you can also go with either a headset mic or something with a very narrow pickup like a shotgun or hypercardioid.
yeah thats understandable, thanks for helping me and ill probably get the wave xlr
do yall have any tips if i do get it? like stuff to enable in the software or wtv
