I use streamlabs OBS
I have a second button that I used originally as a test, and pushing it turns the media on/off
What is the button type you're using? Source? Is the We'll Be Right Back an image, video file?
That'll do it
Also, I can't fugure out why I can't mute the game/mic with hotkeys at all
Depends on how the audio is coming into the scene. Audio Device or via a layer?
You may need to use a Source/Audio Mixer button rather than hotkey
That'll do it
Though I can't figure out if the game audio is being muted when I push the button. . .
Again, depends on how the audio is being brought into your scene. If you're using Audio Monitoring, then it should be muted based on if the source is visible or not.
But if you're using WaveOut/DirectSound method then they route through Desktop Audio
How do I know which method I'm using?
Do you hear your game with SLOBS open?
yes I do
Oh wait, sorry. I just assumed this was with a capture card
It is
Ok, right click on the capture card layer. Then go to properties and scroll down to the bottom where it says Audio Output Mode
Is it set to Capture Audio Only?
It's set to DirectSound
Ok, then that's why. Streamlabs OBS instead of sending the audio from the card into your scene is sending it to your computer's default output (Speakers, headphones, etc)
So the audio is handled like any music or other audio you play on your computer
Aah, Ok
So you could turn off the layer, or you could mute the Desktop Audio option in the audio mixer.
Alright
Or maybe two different layers, one with muted audio and then another and swap between them. Might need to get creative.
I see, thanks
Another option is to set the mode from Directshow to Capture Audio Only. Then go into the Audio Mixer and set the capture card layer to Monitor(Mute Output). It functions the same as before, except if you mute the layer you should also stop hearing it.
Also one more thing: I doubt it's available, but is there a Freeze/pause function (like if you push the button, it stops the recording and makes it a still image, then a second press resumes recording?
That's not yet implemented in the native support, but might be possible through a hotkey.
Hmm, how so?
Oh maybe I misunderstood you. OBS Studio does have a pause function where it stops writing to the file and the you can resume. Helpful if you know you're going to be capturing lots of not important video. But it's not a freeze frame. Also looks like SLOBS doesn't support pausing recordings yet.
dang, alrght
thanks for all the help, though!
I now have a 75% perfect "WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK" meme button!
Would be interested in seeing how it looks. Throw up a clip whenever you get a chance.
You could probably get more creative using nested scenes with different filters I bet.
Will do! I'll also post when I go live in the self promo page
That works too 😉
also where's the filters? getting a tint of color will help to sell the feel of the meme :3
or is it just a picture with some opacity?
Right click on the layer and go to Filters. Then you'll probably want to try color correction
But I don't believe there is support for toggling filters. So you may need to go with the different scene for all these changes.
Then the multiaction can switch to the different scene, then switch back perhaps
now that you guys were talking about recording, is it possible to set flashback recording to similar as for example on ps4? if i capture a 10min clip and after that a 5minute another clip, it would only capture the 5min instead a new 10min which now overlaps the first recording?
Game Capture HD supports different times for a hotkey to write that clip to disk. But 4K Capture Utility currently uses the normal timeline method of scrolling back in time to capture.
But I think OBS Studio offers a similar function called Replay Buffer
that would be sweet feature, to save up disk space and afterwards going through multiple 10min clips for that 10second highlight.. 😛
oh yeah, is there any way to add/remove delay between actions in a multi-action? There is a slightly noticeable bit of time between the "WE'LL BRB" words and the tint
yes there is
ooh, how do I do it
you dont see this ?
nope :?
The Multi-Action needs to be selected to see Multi-Action specific options
you need to go into .. yes what he said ^^
ooooooooooooooh my b
there it is
Hmm, it seems to not have shortened the length of time between action 1 and 2. . .
you need to set the delay in milliseconds
It is in milliseconds by default
how long of an delay you want?
none, the fact that there is a delay IS the problem
ahhhh
or is that not fixable?
it is strange, how long is the delay?
@south bronze Any tuning available on the users end for reducing delays in MultiAction?
Less than a second, but still noticeable
How many actions are in the list right now?
4 on the on half, 3 on the off
My keylight is on a different network than my computer, i can control from my phone using the app but not on the computer, the stream deck shows as lost connection, what can i do
Pretty sure they need to be on the same network to work correctly.
@low crescent @cunning latch We have a secret preference to reduce the delay between actions in the Multi Action. Please note that this is an experimental feature. You can play with it in Stream Deck 4.4 and would definitively like to get feedback.
On macOS you can set the delay between MultiActions to 20ms by executing in the Terminal this line:
defaults write com.elgato.StreamDeck MultiActionDefaultMSDelayBetweenActions -int 20
On Windows, you can achieve the same by adding a DWORD MultiActionDefaultMSDelayBetweenActions with a number value greater than zero in the registry @ HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Elgato Systems GmbH\StreamDeck
@pale hinge you'll need to get the computer on the same network as the phone and Key Lights
OR you can connect your hone up to the same network as your PC and then reset the Key Lights to connect them to the network that PC is on. But if they're on different networks they won't work
@pale hinge Does Control Center also show them as missing?
So Mixer thinks it's on your end for the issues for the StreamDeck not staying logged in? Would that be a possibility of why it randomly 1-2X a week wants me to re-auth?
It happens to a lot of users in all different apps. I highly doubt it's a StreamDeck problem.
@south bronze what's a DWORD?
Is PC the star?
yes
or Mac rather
PC
That's why
Actually wait no
I've just realised my setup is the same and it works
on my phone its fine though
i just got the gigabit switch yesterday
phone connected to router, so it makes sense
I'll show you my setup
This is what I have that works
I think the reason mine works is both go via the router
Try swapping the router and switch around to work like my setup
So with your setup, basically try this
i think that would cause a problem cuz its going to go thru non-gigabit router
I have problems with my camlink 4k. It was working just fine two days ago. Yesterday iv launch obs and there where no black square. which always was there before launching my camera. Tryed everything to unplug and plug again. every usb port that i have is 3.0 iv tried to delete from obs scenes camlink. and add again. it worked BUT WITH FPS Like 15 maximum. Everything was laggy. And when i restarted obs again it dissapear. HELP. Cant stream.
You probably need a gigabit router then
Thank you @worldly sigil
@pale hinge does your modem provide IP addresses to your PC correctly? Like 193.168.x.x?
Anybody?
Sorry not to familiar with camlink. Id recommend calling elgato

Ok, because if your modem is handing out IPs than that back end router should be switched to WAP mode that would keep everything on the same network
hey there, anybody here who can help me with setting up a dual pc stream using an elgato hd60s? i cant get my gaming pc sound to play on the streaming pc, thanks in advance
Ok question.....so I have my Yeti X Pro set to a "Mic/Aux input under Audio.....or I can add it into my scene as a source...is there a preference. I was able to get sound. I add to hit the gear icon for my Mic/Aux input and change it to output
got it
Is anyone able to tell me why this is happening with the elgato 4k60pro mk2? In game it looks fine but the 4k capture utility and OBS both look like this randomly.
@frozen vortex Just to make sure I'm understanding, this is inside of Game Capture HD or is this OBS?
@fair vine Make sure you're on the latest driver: https://e.lga.to/drivers then reboot. If it remains, probably something worth emailing in about.
I'll make sure I'm updated, thank you! @cunning latch
Does the HD60S+ go natively into OBS on Mac OS X?
Can anyone help me, My elgato is not picking up any game audio from my xbox, I watched a video under their FAQ section and it was just explaining how to get voice from xbox, but as im talking though my pc it wasnt applicable.
@tawny pulsar HD60 S+ is supported natively inside of OBS on MacOS no need for OBS Link or Game Capture.
yeah, at this Point i'm scratching my head. Any ideas on how to get game audio to work? For some Reason Its not picking it up.
@grim radish Do you hear audio on your TV right now?
On my PC but yeah, I hear audio @cunning latch
@grim radish I'm a little confused, so let's back up. Audio from your Xbox is not being picked up inside of your capture software. But you hear audio on the PC? What software are you using?
You're using headphones/headset on the PC or on the Xbox?
hi there, not sure if this is the correct place to ask but i have a elgato hd60 s, and i have a weird setup where im trying to game on my laptop and stream to my pc (personal reason / experiment). I thought by connecting my hdmi cable to the elgato hd60 s and then connecting the elgato hd60s to my pc using the usb 3.0 would be sufficient but i dont get a display on the obs on my PC. do i have to include the hdmi output from the elgato hd60s to my PC as well somehow or am i doing something wrong? also sorry for cutting in LORD Kaltani
I'm using the latest Elgato software. My problem is when I record my game on my xbox, the game audio is not recorded but the image is. So essentially the video is silent. My set up is i'm using the pc to talk to my friends either though skype, Discord or Xbox App so I CAN record their voice and mine so we are all good in that department. @cunning latch
Ive got my astros a40's connected to my PC and xbox, but again i dont using the controller to talk
All good 🙂 @winged bobcat
ok nvm i got it to work lol. i just had to had elgato capture program on both pc and laptop somehow and it magically worked. bless technology
@winged bobcat That shouldn't be needed. If you're using OBS, Game Capture doesn't need to be installed at all typically. The issue of no signal inside of OBS with a two PC setup would come down to configuring your displays to clone/duplicate.
not too sure tho, i did notice tho i didnt actually need to have the elgato capture software on the streaming pc to be running to capture video, however, i do need it running if i wanted the audio from the laptop to be captured on the PC
I’m trying to use the Elgato Cam Link and Elgato Pro Dock to connect my Panasonic LUMIX GH4 DSLR to a MAC and using it as a WebCam/Video input for video conference calls (zoom/Skype) and live streaming.
It recognizes the cam link but there’s nothing coming from the camera and it says it’s outputting to TV mode. Any ideas?
I have a 2PC stream set up. The stream PC had a HD60Pro and i just got a camlink for it to use my nicer camera. When i try to use the Camlink at the same time as the HD60Pro i get terrible quality on the stream from the HD60Pro and if i try other USB ports for the camera, i get the camera display freezing. Any Idea how to fix the quality issue?
Hi, I set my Elgato to capture a game on my iPad but the colors are completely different and I can't set them well, I lost hours in the "image" settings in Game Capture HD app on my MacOS. The ipad is the 2018 model, 12.9 inches, while the mac is an imac 2019 top of the line..can anyone help me? I don't know how to get the "normal" game colors.. I use obs as streaming software. however, already from the application, we see that the game has a different color. thanks
I don't know if this is the right place to ask but it is a little technical. Can Stream Deck's Twitch message command read text from a text file? I'm trying to set up a shoutout button that writes "!so {Raider_name}" into my Twitch chat. I have a script that writes the most recent raiders name to a text file, so if I can get the command to read from that file it would make shoutouts for raiders pushing one button.
@lofty lark Currently that is not available for Twitch chat, however you can have OBS read a text file as a source and show and hide using Stream Deck. If you want Stream Deck to read text files to chat, I'd recommend submitting that in our #feature-request 🙂
Many thanks @signal musk I'll pop that in as a suggestion 🙂
oh hi, I have recently acquired an Elgato Stream Deck and am attempting to control OBS.Live. I installed the StreamElements OBS.Live action list in Stream Deck and have checked for the latest OBS.Live and checked the Elgato Remote Plugin under tools but I am getting an error in the Elgato Stream Deck software saying to "Please start StreamElements OBS.Live to use this action." The Stream Deck Actions for OBS work fine. Ideas?
Hi.
I'm considering getting the Elgato 4k60 Pro mk2, however I'm wondering about the min. requirements. It says on the webpage cpu should be i7 gen6 or Ryzen 7.
I have a i7-5820k (6c/12t). Will that work?
my streamdeck multi actions and control centre lags even though im sitting around 30% cpu and gpu usage (r9 3900x and 2080ti)
sometimes it misses to do things such as hotkeys or hide sources too
I have an elgato HD60S and for some reason if I leave everything plugged in and try to stream right away my audio gets all staticky. So to fix this.. I have to stop the stream unplug everything. Plug everything back in. Open OBS first and then turn on the XBOX.
Please send help lol 😂
Do I need a new one or something?
alright so how do i get streamdeck to open different apps and webpages on different monitors? as for example if I want obs on the left and others on the right one?
@vagrant sun would you be able to show an image of the iPad compared to the preview window? Just a phone picture should be enough. Is it faded, too contrasted?
@inner flare I have the GH5, so I'm not sure if it's the same on the GH4, but there is a specific HDMI Output menu where you can control the output resolution and fps. What resolution and fps is the camera set to?
@vocal wasp You'll want to look into the "Windows Mover & Resizer" plugin from BarRaider on the StreamDeck More Actions menu.
combined with multiactions you should be able to make one button move a bunch of windows around after opening them.
thanks, already on it @cunning latch
is there a way to use multi action to activate other keys on streamdeck?
You create a Multiaction, then, copy the another keys inside the multiaction
i would like to put another multi action in affect within multiaction, is there a better way to do it other than copy all the keys. and apparenty you cant put multi actions in another
@solid vapor
don't believe that's currently possible. But worth a Feature Request.
So I'm trying to setup chat message for youtube live streams and when I go on my Youtube tab all it says is error and when I try to use the chat button it will just show a Error sign
it would be nice if someone would help me out
If you need official Elgato support please go to http://e.lga.to/help - this sounds like it'd require that anyway
Because I've never seen that error before
Hmm, any idea why it's saying this for adding a Google account?
I think I might know why is because I have 2 Youtube accounts with an email one is a "brand account" and one is a "personal account" because when you make a brand account it makes 2 and I think that they dont support brand accounts which would suck because thats the main reason why I got the stream deck.
Mine worked WITH a brand account
hmm
So you have made a brand account aside from your other one?
Because there is a whole process on getting a brand accound
Yes, I logged in with my brand account
ok yes
hmm
so idk why it wont work for me
So it lets you send messages on live chat with the keys?
Because if this is the right way to make live messages then idk why its not working.
Ok
The HDMI port on my GPU seems to not work, would I be able to use an DisplayPort to HDMI with the mk2? Or would that cause any issues? 😄
elgato is working on software, but not my xbox one X? any fixes
works on other consoles fine
i have a 720hd game capture card and all of a sudden i have no sound at all from my ps4 to my obs, any ideas?
I need help with me HD60s
Hey guys, are there any people recording with external drives? mine is too slow for my settings, so i wanna get a new one for christmas
Why not record to an internal drive
wanna be as versitile as it can get
i record on my laptop and my pc
so i wanna have my material on both devices
Hi I'm new and just got a stream hd60. I just want to capture gameplay somehow. If I can't do that then stream it somehow. The website I can't find anything about it on there and YouTube isn't much help either. That or I just looked in the wrong places. Just a point in the right direction would help please.
is there a stream deck mobile for android?
I do not think there is support currently, but I will pass this along.
Is there an easy way to capture two cameras to a 1 PC set up? I.e. two camlinks?
two camlinks should just work fine
but the camlink doesnt encode so make sure you got the power available
To add to that, make sure the software you use likes more than one camera.
Does anyone know if there's a specific reason that the minium requirements for 4k60 Pro is set to 6th gen i7??
Probably cause if your streaming 4k60 you'll probably need something like that
I'm asking since I have the i7-5820k which is performance-wise stronger than the weaker i7-6xxx cpus and I'm considering getting one of the cards
Doubt that's the reason but that's what I can think of
Sounds reasonable @cobalt sphinx , I really would like to know if my i7-5820k will be able to support the capture card capturng 1440p144 and then stream in 1080p60...
And since I have to order it I don't wanna gamble and perhaps have to return it 🙂
I think the only issue you might have is that even if it worked it wouldn't be a supported CPU support wise. I would say your best bet is to give them a call when support starts in 4 hours or so and ask them.
@storm gyro ^
@floral jetty Maybe, problem is it's probably a US office right? I'm in EU 🙂

@past crane @worldly sigil for the YouTube issue you all received please do file a ticket. There is an issue with YouTube API right now and this would be the best way to track it.
@floral jetty I was just helping him. It works fine at my end.
You got the not verified alert on your end as well? That part is an issue as well.
Ah no, that was due to a PEBCAK. I authorised with my brand account (and not my account that wasn't authorised for streaming) and it worked fine
I'd forgotten to change my authorisation in StreamDeck after I moved my YouTube over from a separate personal YT account to a Brand account
Hey everyone
We are aware that both Game Capture and Stream Deck are currently down for YouTube. Our team is actively working on it and we will send out an official update when we have one. If you want you can check for updates at http://twitter.com/elgatosupport
Alright one last reach before I return this. I know the 4k60 mk2 isn't compatible with AMD cards, but is there any indication of support of it in the future? Trying to go 1440p with signal and it gets wonky, so I went with the bypass method, send signal into card, then out to monitor, but I'm only getting a 60hz option in some games and not 144hz.
Any other suggestions are helpful. Otherwise I'm marking my 2-PC stream setup with Elgato 0 and 2 for attempts.
Hey Sonuchi have you reached out to support?
I haven't, but I'm going to assume since the requirements on the site only say Nvidia graphics cards, they won't help me because I use AMD.
@open lintel if I rememebr rightly the 4k60 mk2 uses NVENC technology (which won't work on AMD GPUs) and therefore it isn't possible to do it with an AMD card. I believe that's why they only list NVIDIA cards on the site
@worldly sigil yes that is correct. I just watched video from EposVox.
or rather, last night.
I doubt they'll add support for AMD VCE. Not even sure if it's possible with firmware updates
yeah. I'm just returning this.
a bit disappointed, but oh well. not a solution for me.
I don't know of any card that'll do it with AMD GPUs, so you may just have to get an NVIDIA card 😦
I talk with a few at AMD often. One uses the Avermedia. Guess I'm going that route.
Oh is this for the stream PC? The way I read it I thought your gaming PC was using AMD card? @open lintel
@floral jetty both PCs have AMD
surprising enough, if I push a setting change in the 4K software, it forces my display to look weird when I duplicate or extend in my gamign PC.
that's just on my gaming PC.
So it's the gaming part you have issue with not encoder?
this also causes the video input to the 4K software to layer the video input to a 5x5 array.
yeah a bit of both, you could say.
Well for the encoding are you using CPU or wanted to use card?
Let me throw a few scenarios I did while streaming for AMD last night:
I'm using CPU.
for all instances.
Ok because the Nvidia GPU requirements I'm pretty sure are only for using nvenc not for anything else
The HDMI source shouldn't matter if it's Nvidia or AMD cards I would think
i thought so. 🙂 but I'm still baffled by why the capture card behaved so weird last night
I would say call support to get some help but yeah I think it should work fine.
ok
I'm going to throw some of the scenarios up here really quick just so others might be able to relate.
Ok, also let us know what support says.
Scenario 1: Gaming PC duplicate display setup
- Results -
27 in 1440p 144hz monitor runs at 1440. 4k60 card only detects 1080p60, game (COD:MW) only sees 1920x1080 resolution. Changing EDID in 4K software didn't do anything. At the same time, would randomly force incoming video to a 5x5 array the signal.
Scenario 2: Gaming PC extended display. Display 1 is 27-inch mon. Display 2 4k60 mk2.
- Results -
Can configure each to 1440p, but 4K software will only if you change EDID to 1440p. However, this forces monitor resolution to look distorted and blurry, with a possible different resolution forced to it. Also, changes in 4K software pushes to 5x5 array if you attempt to switch back between resolutions.
Scenario 3
Run Gaming PC to 4k60 mk2 card, bypass then to monitor.
- Results -
Can configure 4K software to read source as 1440p. Pushes bypass as the same. Game (COD:MW) sees 1440p, but monitor Hz is only 60 and not 144.
and do you know if all of your hdmi cables are 2.1?
if that's the latest from what I'm doing a quick search one, not likely.
yeah no. I don't have 2.1 @floral jetty
sorry are they all 2.0
from my understanding you need at least 2.0 for 144hz 1440p. I would say test each cable separate to make sure they all work at that. As the weakest link will lower everything.
sounds good. I'll check that out as well. Thanks for the input!
np
oh you are look at the MT umm i didnt check that on. let me see
they are actually both grayed out for me
umm whats the url
Weird
I cant really explain how this is possible cant be because of the Browser
Used several
All have the same problem
try doing incognito?
Nope
mine show as grayed out for a second than go clickable
i wonder if it knows im in the US and still directing me to that server just with the language change.
what location? what partners do they have at the bottom?>
I could purchase this card
Uhm I am from germany
And you mean the partners on the right lower corner?
yeah
All I see is Twitter, Youtube, Instagramm, Facebook and Discord
oh that makes send because you can't click the buy now
um if you try to go to elgato.com/en does it allow you to try and buy
Nope the site is english now but everything is still gray
Strange. i saw alternate.de had them in stock amazon was out of stock.
I see
Yeah I tried amazon but I couldnt get one
Maybe I will try alternate
Oh
It even would be on time
Well...I mean all I want is a Greensscreen
So I guess I will just take it
Thanks alot for your effort!
np!
My elgato streamdeck wont stop displaying the elgato logo
Even though I got a profile
Can someone please help? I am not having any luck getting some OBS questions answered. Worst experience ever when I went to there discord asking questions,. I really would like some help answering questions. I am willing to pay. I have wasted so much time looking for help

hey I just bought an elgato 4k60 pro mk2 and does it work with 144hz monitor or will I have to clone my main monitor so I can play in 144hz and not be capped at 60hz like I was with hd60
4k60 pro mk2 supports 1440p 144hz passthrough
Would I just plug my HDMI into my gaming computer and into the in port on the elgato and take an HDMI that's in my monitor and plug it into the out port and then it will allow me to play at 144hz and capture it and also do I need to download the 4k capture utility on both PC's
@open lintel Do you know the driver version you have installed for your MK.2?
Please confirm in Device Manager
If you're on 1.1.0.186, please try updating to 1.1.0.187.2: https://gc-updates.elgato.com/windows/drivers/4k60-pro-mk2/download.php and rebooting. The grid issue you mentioned is often fixed with this driver.
@molten rampart If your monitor supports 144hz over HDMI, then just connect it into the HDMI output of the 4K60 Pro MK.2
how would I know if 144hz will work over hdmi
@frozen vortex What OBS issue were you having? Had you posted about it here before?
@molten rampart What is the monitor model? Usually the specs list will say.
its 144hz with display port
so how would I be able to use it at 144hz if you would know
@limber jewel Sounds like the software isn't recognizing the device right now. Try another USB port if possible or reinstalling the software.
The device will show a logo when it's powered but isn't talking to software.
@molten rampart So you know that it doesn't support 144hz over HDMI?
yes
Unless Windows or your GPU has problems with it, it should perform the same.
ok thank you
also one more thing should I have the 4k capture utility on both my gaming and streaming pc
Only needed for the system with the card installed.
ok thank you
hey I have a problem now that I have my elgato connected my game wont go over 144 fps its capped there
Well the framerate isn't limited by the monitor or capture card, but can be limited if you're using Vsync which would be locked to the refresh rate
Which game are you running?
@cunning latch do not, but I'll report that when I can.
@cunning latch I had 1.1.0.186 updating to 1.1.0.187.2 via link and will try tomorrow.
@open lintel Sounds good. Also looks like we got your email in earlier today. So I'm sure an agent will be following up with you on the other issues in COD:MW.
Sounds good. Thanks for reaching back out. Did notice the output source was still still showing 1080p59 after duplicating displays. Will further test tomorrow.
So source is showing 1080p59 and output is 1080p59?
does anyone know how to capture game chat with elgato capture card (not xbox or ps4 party) or like a way where my elgato can capture the fortnite voice chat
This is console chat? I think Fortnite might have it's own audio settings outside of the console's own options.
I'm not personally as familiar with the options on console. But I remember Fortnite having its own chat output options. Can fire it up to see though. You may just need to make sure it's sending chat to the TV to be captured.
Are you using a Chat Link or just connecting the console with an HDMI cable?
@cunning latch i do have a chat link
when i plug it into my controller i can't hear a single thing
with my headset
I have a gaming monitor so not sure @cunning latch
So if you connect just the Headset into the controller with no Chat Link, does audio come through there?
And when going through the Chat Link, that's when you hear nothing. Just to confirm, you're connecting the longer connector into your Game Capture device, correct? Using only the shorter ends for the Headset and Controller.
Not sure then. If you're indeed using the shorter connectors for the headset and controller connections then it's possible the problem is the Chat Link. This a new one you're using?
i had it for a while
@cunning latch i also have a wireless headset too
does that have a problem with chat link
Well no as long as the Headset can turn off the wireless function and be used wired.
But there is a warranty on the Chat Link, so I'd probably email in about it. http://e.lga.to/help
ok
Did anyone know why my keylight stand extend is stuck ? how i get this working ?
Hi there! I've just ordered my StreamDeck XL and am in the process of using the software to build my profiles before the StreamDeck arrives! Is there any way of me changing the software to show all 32 keys before my streamdeck arrives?
@graceful osprey Not something the software supports right now without an existing profile. Once the XL is connected it generates a new 32 key profile.
No worries, Thanks for the heads up!
Hi there. I am using the Game Capture 4K60 Pro and this keeps happening about 10 times an hour. What can i do about it? https://clips.twitch.tv/SpinelessCarefulWombatDAESuppy
@ruby talon Please install the latest 1.1.0.187.2 driver here: https://gc-updates.elgato.com/windows/drivers/4k60-pro-mk2/download.php and reboot your system. Should clear this up.
Thank you <3
I am having a issue with my Elgato HD60Pro the audio is showing in the mixer on SLOBS but I cant get audio to my headset anymore, it was working fine but it stopped out of nowhere, is there anyone that can help me troubleshoot it??
so I basically still don't know how to setup a dual pc 4k60 pro mk2 since when I do, I need to mirror my screen
anyone that can help me, without mirroring?
Hey, i'm trying to connect my elgato capture card to my mixer profile and i'm not sure if i downloaded the wrong thing but it just won't let me connect to mixer. Keeps saying "something went wrong with the auth app" and i don't understand what it means.
Hey everyone. I have my elgato hd60 hooked up and SLOBS is showing no game sound being captured but it captured game sound in the game capture software. I googled it and followed some monitoring steps and nothing.
anyone around able to help me out? ive been stuck for days and just found this discord
Hey everyone, I’m having so issues with the Elgato with the Xbox if anyone is familiar with OBS and audio would appreciate the help.
Hi I'm having trouble setting up my capture card, after jumberius tutorials and videos I'm still having problems on 2 very capable pcs. Any help is appreciated
I’m unable to stream in 1080p on my switch, what’s going on?
I'm observing a weird issue on my mac (Catalina) where the property inspector in the streamdeck software is not showing so I can't set anything other than the name of the action. I removed it entirely then did a clean install but it still doesn't appear. Works fine on my other mac so I'm not sure if there is an incompatibility with something else... I know it loads HTML somewhere so maybe the port is already in use but I don't know which one so I'm not sure of to start approaching the problem
Exemple of the problem with the Hue plugin
When I'm tapping the new action I have a yellow exclamation mark triangle, but on already configured actions it works fine even though I cannot configure them anymore
I need some help on better understanding with this.
How does Decoder and Encoder work because my video gets these blur pixels?

hi there.
i SOMETIMES have a problem with my Elgato HD60S.
like i dont have any sound on the HDMI Passthrough.
sound is avilable for the Capture on my PC, so my viewers can hear stuff, but the sound doesnt go through to my TV.
and if it happens, it doesnt matter if the input is captured on PC or not.
unplugging and replugging doesnt help.
next time (like next day) i try playing/streaming, it works.
any ideas how to fix that?
I'll try to help some of y'all in a bit. Taking care of IRL stuff. If it's an urgent matter feel free to contact support using the links up above.
@south bronze what questions do you have with setup?
only the first one basically
2nd is the same xD
I hear people stream without mirroring
but if I try that, the Elgato is a 3rd monitor instead of capturing my game pc
Yes you either have to use the pass through option. HDMI in to elgato HDMI out to monitor. Or mirror.
@floral jetty Do you know anything about these settings?
Slightly, I don't really use game capture. Are you recording or streaming? Wheee are you seeing the blur.?
I record on there.
And for some reason when I watch the vid after I record, it cuts to another scene or I see pixels
blurs.
What are your computer specs. And what capture card wlare you using
@floral jetty These are my specs and I am using Elgato HD60 S.
And does it have a graphics card besides the Intel onboard?
How do I check?
Right click the start button on bottom left and go to device manager. Check display adapters
Ok, and if you click the drop down for encoder what do you have as a list
I'll check
@floral jetty
not sure about that UHD 620 chip.
but the "intel HD Graphics" a few years ago already struggled during 1080p Video playback in a media player (is what a buddy told me)
if possible, you should try to use your CPU for encoding. i at least know that OBS/SLOBS can do that. not sure for elgato game capture software though
and that's not what Shady meant.
i'd say he meant your initial screenshot with encoder and decoder. the dropdown in there
^
@south bronze How do I do that?
lets see what encoder options you have available, as shady asked ...
maybe there is something that used the CPU instead of GPU
Hold on
@south bronze
ouch.
not sure if the software encoder would do the job, but that'd be the only other option with this capture software
as i mentioned, i dont use the elgato software. so i am not familiar with it.
i use OBS for streaming and i know it has (in my oppinion) better options
....
I have OBS all up to date
you can try setting it to "software (built in)" and see if it helps
You know any recommended settings?
Alrighty
These are my settings for output
Pick software up above it would use the CPU instead of graphics card.
Sorry didn't see above just quick glanced
yea, x264 encoder. that's good.
i was about to post my own settings, but other than the bitrate it should be mostly the same.
in the advanced settings you can set the CPU usage level for more fine adjustment
so the RECORDING ecoder (bottom half) should be set to Software (x264) as well.
@south bronze Software built in didn't help on encoder in my Elgato software
It was lagging a lot
shouldnt be 
maybe x264 plusadvanced setting in OBS could help.
but then you'd have to record through OBS, and not the elgato software
Yeah that's fine
Any changes?
not there. in "output", the checkbox "enable advanced encoder settings"
Oh okay
This right?
yea, but i expected the same options down on recording, that you have for streaming
let's try recording through OBS as the settings are right now ...
Alrighty
also ...
can you check the CPU usage while recording? see how many % of CPU capacity is used?
It's at 21%
and? does it work or is it laggy too?
No it doesn't lag, but when I played it back it did.
@south bronze
Have you had this issue before?
nope
that caused by your recording?
Yeah
After I recorded. Do you know how to get out of it?
Because I sat here for two hours and the percent on my pc didn't change
without further information, that can be many reasons.
with 21% CPU usage it is unlikely a problem with resources or temperature, but you never know.
other possible things might be Ram or virtual memory.
or many other things i can't think of.
also, i am not a windows 10 expert. and as i said, never had that. especially not for recording or streaming
Ah okay
with an i7 CPU it shouldnt be a problem.
but if your cooler is cluttered with dust, it MIGHT overheat even at 21% load
as i said, i can't possibly say if that's the case or not.
just one possibility out of hundreds
@floral jetty so how do I connect the way the pass through works?
I just connected the Elgato to my monitor
I only need to know how to connect the 4k60pro mk2 so I don't need to use mirroring
what are you trying to record? @south bronze
Ok, so from your gaming PC you should have an HDMI going out to the in part of the elgato, and an HDMI going from out to your monitor
I have 1 cable from my gaming pc GPU into the elgato 4k60pro mk2 INPUT and from there 1 cable from the Elgato OUTPUT to my gaming monitor
And does any of your monitors work on your gaming PC?
Might need to go to graphics settings and set the second screen up. Need to configure it to extended
Does the stream PC see anything in game capture/obs
yes
Is your monitor set to HDMI input
K
I think I switched over to EDID internal
but now on display
do i need to set it to extend?
since its only 1080p120?
or does hdmi only support up to 120?
Is it connected to a 1080p monitor?
HDMI does support it but need a specific version for the faster soeeds
Also your monitor needs to support that speed over the HDMI cable
What monitor are you using
acer xf240h
yikes
isee
so better to go mirroring again and buy a new monitor..
thanks for all your help!
Np
Anyone know how I can open google chrome incognito mode with my streamdeck with or without a link?
I want to install one of the internal capture cards. Do I simply place it in the PCIE slot in my motherboard? Thanks
Has anyone been able to find an alternative route to stream their ps4 audio to the HD60 PRO while also having a mic plugged into the ps4?
Hey everyone. I have my elgato hd60 hooked up and SLOBS is showing no game sound being captured but it captured game sound in the game capture software. I googled it and followed some monitoring steps and nothing.
It just took me a long time to fix this @south bronze
Right Click on your Game Capture under sources > Click Properties -- Make sure that the "Use Custom Audio Device" is unchecked
@south bronze Yeah, it is unchecked. Incoming cringe picture.
The bar moves just a hair to the left of the mouse pointer but no further
Actually, this
Hi guys I need some help. I had my HD60 working awesome on my last PC never had an issue with it. Recently upgraded to a better PC but I keep seeing this on the capture screen? I've tried different cables etc, uninstalled and reinstalled the software but no luck, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Have you tried updating the drivers for it? @rugged nexus
I did yes, and 30 minutes ago re downloaded the software for a fresh install
Has anyone tried the GoPro Hero 8 Black with the cam link yet?
@rugged nexus What are the specs of the new machine?
And definitely try other USB ports on the system, front and back. If the newer computer is much faster then it's possible there is some problem with the USB controller behavior.
@south bronze Is your audio coming through an HDMI cable or Chat Link?
Is the audio very quiet in Game Capture? Does it also show it low there?
@dawn tiger Yep. https://youtu.be/GD_Av3YeTws?t=53

Worked it out @cunning latch I tried all the USB ports like you mentioned one by one and in doing so I took out the bluetooth dongle for my xbox elite controller to try that one and the picture instantly cleared up! Can confirm the BT dongle was the issue, have tried it in a few other ports. Thanks heaps for your help 🙂
hi
sorry for sayinng the discord sucks, i was frustated over working on this card for 2 days that i still cant get to work right.. both PCS are more than capable of handling the set up, but when my game capture goes to the stream pc, its lags within obs, causing my stream and recordings to lag, it does this whether the preview is off or not, im sure i have a setting wrong somewhere and would love some assistance.. thanks in advance.
what are the specs on the streaming pc
I'm building a streaming PC for a friend. What type of storage do I throw in there? SSD, HDD or SSHD?
SSD, IMO
I do SSD for my core stuff, OS, OBS, smaller apps, then I have a SSHD for game storage
@pulsar flume The PC is intended for a dual PC setup, so it's gonna be used solely for streaming
For what I've heard, SSD's wear out quickly if you use them to save recordings on them
for long term storage sshd/hdd are good. youll want ssd/nvme for os/programs, if editing videos maybe a nvme/ssd drive for the work folder as well.
Yeah, I don't use my SSD for storage just to run applications.
Yeah same
I've been running a few SSDs and it's been okay for me (knocking on wood)
My SSHD saves all my recordings
I just don't think he would care for the speed from the SSD as he's only gonna touch the PC a few times here and there
So: SSHD > HDD?
1000%
Aight
I only push the SSD because they're not super pricey anymore, so SSD is still budget, but if you're just running one storage device, yeah SSHD
His budget doesn't cover the SSD + HDD combo. So I think I'd rather just throw in a fat SSHD
Ahhh I see, then yeah that's where I'd go with it myself
hey guys so hd60s is showing up in windows settings but not in obs settings, anyone know why this could be ?
@eternal stratus "Windows Settings" Where in Windows settings?
But try reinstalling the HD60 S driver: https://gc-updates.elgato.com/windows/drivers/hd60-s/download.php and reboot.
Like Device manager?
alright reinstalling seemed to fix it, thanks @cunning latch
just gotta figure out how to stop the audio from doubling on my monitor's speakers
since I already set it to monitor audio through obs
@eternal stratus Probably related to the Capture Mode in the card's properties in OBS.
Are you using Monitor (Mute Output)?
I am indeed
Stream deck multiaction switch is not "resetting" to state 1
fixed: you can't have a "switch profile" action in the multiaction switch
that's in a multiaction not the 2 stage multiaction
Aaahhh, yeah, I get it, yes, thats not possible yet, but I think is a good idea
you should comment it on #feature-request
Hello, names Borg. I have an issue with my HD60 S , No power is getting to box. So I am not able to dL anything from my HDMI. Any help would be nice. Did standard self diagnoses to no avail.
Hello guys, I am having trouble with sound. I have the 4k60 pro installed into my pc, I for some reason can't hear game audio, but within the elgato software it shows that it is receiving sound
@south bronze have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting the device ?
my resolution is all messed up on my hd60 pro
I have lag with my elgato . Like every 2 min a little lag
Stop the picture
Any help with setting?
Is there anyway to make Stream deck recognize the state of for example a scene??
Like if I'm on brb I want my mic to be muted in voicemeeter too, but when I switch to another scene like "game" I want it to unmute the mic again
@south bronze Does the computer show the HD60 S as being connected?
@south bronze Can you show an image of what the issue looks like? Does it look ok on the passthrough?
Is there anyone that could help me with a audio issue with my HD 60 Pro in streamlabs obs?
@storm gyro maybe you can set up a multi action button that does both?
^ That's what I have for my friends D&D stream, a "go live" swaps to D&D unmutes mics, then a "break" button which takes us to break screen, mutes audio, and turns on a 5 minute counter.
@ruby gyro Yeah, but it needs to somehow check the state of the OBS scenes, so when BRB scene is not active it should umute the mic again, I know this is possible to do in a competitors software
Thing is, it has to mute the mic in Voicemeeter, since it's a dual pc setup, and only one audio source in OBS (stream mix)
I wonder what the max weight the Multi Mount with the Flex Arm kit can hold
That’s what multi action is...allows you to set up one button to do@multiple things

very specific issue with trying to set up a 2 pc stream setup
where the gaming pc is playing at 1080p @ 240 hz
@rustic nymph @cunning latch yes than no. Says I need to hook it up to a 2.0 or better usb so tried that by hooking to a 3.1 than it complained that it needed a 3.1 or better, hence the Unconnecting of all the wires rebooting, reinitializing, and all that fun.
@south bronze hmmm.... It said 2.0 or better when connecting it?
What software are you using it with?
@ancient spruce I messaged Anjel about this. He's the agent on your recent case.
But I'll need to talk with the other Tier3 who were working with you before to find out what the other options are.
Of course others are free to try and help, but I'll see if theres any other info I can come up with.
@cunning latch using it with OBS Studio
@floral jetty the issue i had before if u search for my name is still happening
just ended my stream cause of it, no sound going to stream
it's really frustrating I was also playing a tournament, now im not streaming and im not playing the tournament either just because of this shitty issue that never gets fixed
anyone on? otherwise ill just have to post everywhere that im not able to stream
Please do not spam other channels @zenith totem
If you do not want to wait for a response from a community member in this channel you can always file a ticket located in the pins.
@pulsar flume which channels is that?
What do you mean?
You said I was spamming other channels or something, I was just wondering what channels am I spamming hah, take ur time i just posted that im not going live again because of this issue im having rn
ill just have to post everywhere that im not able to stream
I read this as you saying you were going to, if that was not the intention that is a mistake on my end.
No worries, I thought it was obvious that it meant me posting to my socials and so on that I'm not being able to stream, basically letting my audience know about it.
@zenith totem sorry in meetings at work. If this is for the sound capture issue, I would say contact support since you have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times.

Hi everyone! I'm asking for a buddy because he has an older machine. He's using an i7-3770K with 16GB of RAM and a GTX 770 that's only being used to stream Xbox One. It's worked fine with the old Elgato HD, but with the delay it's a pain for him to constantly adjust delays to sync the input with different scenes.
I recommended the HD 60S+ and the new 4K Pro MKII but I know the HD 60S+ recommends a 4000 series Intel, and the 4k version suggests 6000 series Intel or newer. If he's using the card more for 4k passthrough, but still only streaming 720p60 or 1080p30 and using NVENC, would that be an issue on either card? I'd like him to be able to keep the same card for when I upgrade his machine next year and didn't want him wasting money on a cheaper capture card.
As long as he's not recording/streaming 4k he should be fine right?
I have a question, and I've been using the elgato Game Capture HD software and it's worked almost flawlessly, but would using OBS instead stop some of the slowdowns and hitches that I'm noticing on Game Capture HD? It's very minimal and I'm still happy with the product, but not sure if those hitches should be there because I've seen a couple streamers play their games flawlessly as well.
Let me know if I'm doing anything wrong, I can screenshot settings as well.
What's your ticket number? @nova swift
@south bronze Looks like Overscan. I forget your issue, but guessing you're capturing a PC? The PC may be assuming the capture card is an HDMI TV and is scaling up the image automatically.
In your GPU control panel you should find a TV/Monitor display scaling menu.
where do I go to repair elgato software? I know there's a button but I don't remember where I could find this button at
this thing, how do I pop it up without having to keep redownloading it ?
it's called set up wizard, but not sure where I could access it
@south bronze Well I'm not sure. I'd probably email in about it so our team can grab some log information.
When I go to stream the output looks like this the elgato is like split
I connected my Elgato HD60 S to Nintendo Switch and OBS, and the video is silent.
@rustic nymph The installer I believe is currently the method for repairing. But you should be fine to close those two applications listed and hit retry and it will go through and look for missing files or corrupted data.
@molten rampart Oh it's like wrapping around on the top? Which model of card is this? I think you've posted before but I don't recall.
@pale sleet Are you using a headset/headphones with your Switch?
no
I did and it didn't work sadly, I called and I put pc gaming and I can hear game audio perfectly. Whenever I switch to advanced settings it goes mia as in no sound
@cunning latch
could someone help me with my audio on internal capture card
fixed somehow
@pale sleet Was going to say to make sure it was on HDMI audio since it sounded like there was some static.
But glad to hear it may be cleared up now.
@marble hare Which model of card are you using? And what software are you using it with?
im using the hd60 pro and im using with streamlabs obs, im not able to hear the sound but its going out to the stream @cunning latch
@rustic nymph You already called into our team? Do you need to use Advanced? PC Gaming should work for 90% of setups when sending audio to through the card.
i cant hear the game sound for some reason, but if i put the monitor to on but mute output it doubles into my main audio feed
so the stream will hear it twice but i can hear it
@cunning latch I honestly don't know if I do, but I don't see a problem with pc gaming just curious to as why advanced settings stopped working now. Yes I did, I got am email for request of utility report
Advanced just has some more intricate changes for some special setups, but switching to it may have changed your output devices or toggled off the audio being sent to certain outputs.
everything was left as it was before and it was playing fine, im not sure what to do next since i followed forums in elgato and via youtube and had no luck fixing it
@cunning latch its the 4k60 pro mk2
@marble hare Check your HD60 Pro properties and on the bottom is it set to Capture Audio Only or DirectSound/Waveout?
There appears to be some temporary issue tonight with streaming to Twitch through Game Capture HD. You may see a 404 error. But you can still stream using RTMP.
Inside of Game Capture HD, go to your Live Streaming module on the right. Click on the + icon to add a new account. Choose "RTMP://".
You'll have a new window with three options. The name you wish to call this Streaming Account, the Stream URL/Ingest, and Stream Key. Name can be anything you want.
For the Stream URL, choose a url from here: https://stream.twitch.tv/ingests/ When entering the url, it should look like this.
rtmp://live-mia.twitch.tv/app
You can grab your stream key from your Twitch Dashboard.

@twilit silo That should be fine.
lol heard, thanks. I figure he can dial it back to lower quality settings that I know works in slobs - use nvenc @ 6000kbps at either 720p or 1080p30
But keep in mind that if you reach out for support, our agents may just say "it's unsupported" . Since the specs don't need the requirements. But definitely leverage NVENC as much as possible.
But you know, they're following protocol and all that.
It's more for the 4k hdr pass through with near real-time game capture so all his other stuff is in sync
Oh I get it. I can't argue with that
Next year I hope to convince him to upgrade but he just bought a new house/new pool so he's not for dropping a lot on a new rig right now
With the source running at 4K HDR, the card is taking 4K scaling to 1080p, and tonemapping from HDR to SDR. So in the end the video coming from the card is no more than 1080p60 in normal SDR. So similar performance impact of an HD60 S.
If he upgrades, definitely CPU/Platform. Early USB 3.0 is just so dodgy.
Ryzen is heckin cheap for the performance 
Is the tone mapping done on chip or through the cpu if he buys the 4k pro mkii?
Yeah I just built my 3950X rig for streaming/gaming now 🙂
I'm jealous, trying to find one in stock.
Okay cool. Is the HD 60S+ also on chip?
HD60 S+ and 4K60 Pro MK.2 have on-hardware tonemapping.
I drove the 60 miles to a microcenter on SoCal and waited on launch day
okay awesome thanks
Aren't you guys in socal? I met one of your employees out here like 3-4 years ago
Only other card which supports HDR is the original 4K60 Pro, but it was all software tonemapping which makes HDR playing and SDR streaming trickier.
Corsair/Elgato HQ is Fremont, CA.
Though I'm remote in Florida.
Yeah for sure. I'm hoping he just buys the internal one for future work anyway. My pci-e one runs much better on Ryzen.
Nice! That's where he's at. I'm not too far from Freemont.

Hi. I have the HD60 S. But my monitor is fairly old. It only has DVI and VGA ports on it. I’ve tried using a HDMI-to-DVI adaptor. But my monitor doesn’t receive a signal from the device. Does the device support this type of conversion? Or am I going to need a newer monitor with a HDMI port?
someone that can help me with voicemeeter banana, i think i messed up everything...
anyone else facing continous usb disconnects?
I'm struggeling with OBS, Elgato HD60S and my switch.
Says I have to use a USB 3.0 port (which I'm using).
If someone has some experience with it, I'd happily take a one on one tech support
can someone help me
@rough jackal Could be a problem with the cable or port? Does it do this on other USB ports on your system?
USB 3.0 Port fixed the Problem 😉
Will both my elgatos work if I have 2 plugged into my computer one for my xbox and one for my pc
@molten rampart what models of game capture devices?
elgato hd60 for xbox and 4k60pro mk2 for px
Yep, those two models together should be okay. There were some issues and you had to use a separate driver for some models a few years ago.
Currently, if using latest drivers...
HD60 S+
HD60 Pro
4K60 Pro
4K60 Pro MK.2```
Can all be used in multiples.
Oh, I've got a supported one then for multiple use 🤔
You can also use one HD or HD60 with many of those listed above. Essentially those two older models can only be used one at a time.
So I am having a problem. I just moved and setup my whole computer station and I decided to use 3 of the same monitors on my gaming pc and a previous monitor for my stream pc. I used to have 2 and one hooked up to my stream pc. The issue I have now is when ever I connect the HDMI cable from my capture card to my gaming pc graphics card one of my monitors shuts off and when I try to mess with the settings to change it in display settings and NVIDIA control panel my pc freezes for a few minutes. Disconnect the HDMI cable and all 3 monitors work the way I want them too. Any ideas?
Hello everyone! Is anyone online to help a noob with a setup issue? I believe I have everything plugged in correctly but after an hour of troubleshooting I can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
I'll start by saying I have an HD60s. I HDMI'd my Nintendo Switch into the HDMI IN, and connected the HDMI OUT to my TV (We'll call this "Monitor A"). I connected the USB that came with it into my computer's USB 3.1 port (I've tried all the other ports as well to be sure 3.1 wasn't broken). The Elgato device flashed white, white, red. I opened my Game Capture HD software (on my 2nd monitor which we will call "Monitor B" Monitor B is set to duplicate Monitor A so I can see what Monitor A would show despite having changed its input over to my game console) and in the top right it states "No Capture Devices Found". I tried a variety of troubleshooting steps such as resetting the PC, resetting the elgato, changing out wires and ports, I even went into device manager and unticked all of the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" boxes on my USB 3.0... I wondered how I was receiving video and audio of the console through Monitor A if on Monitor B I can see that the elgato isn't working properly according to my pc's device manager. In the Device Manager it states "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
There are no compatible drivers for this device.
To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver."
For the life of me I could not find a driver for the elgato. I downloaded every video capture software I found on the elgato website and installed it all. Nothing works. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here?
is the Canon EOS Rebel T5 compatible with the CamLink?
if anyone knows please @ me
or dm
Hi i need help with conecting elgato to obs. I have downloaded obs and obs link, but when i open obs link it says "please connect a capture device" please help me!

okay no worries no worries.
@quaint pike This is the HD60 S or HD60 S+?
Does 4K Capture Utility or OBS also not see it?
Hello everyone.
I am using dual PC setup:
Streaming PC - Elgato HD60 Pro (OBS)
Gaming PC - Focusrite Solo (Mic + Headphones)
My issue is that I cannot move ingame audio + discord + microphone from gaming PC back to streaming PC.
@cunning latch Nothing see's it, i've tried everything, 4 hours.
4 hours of my day spent on tryna figure it out
@primal widget check the top pinned message in this channel.
Sorry, message not tweet. My main job is our twitter.
Can you verify the version? Go to the i button on the top right
then About Game Capture HD
This sort of window.
Then try installing the version from the link like before. That version in the message isn't publicly shown on our site yet. Still in testing today.
ohhh
So we're sending it out to specific people who experience this problem before broadcasting it out.
Yea, should be fine to install it right ontop.
@clever crescent There is a Corsair Discord server: http://discord.gg/corsair Could maybe ask there.
@cunning latch ayyy got it up now, ty!
@primal widget It's working?

now it's just like, not being read
at all
like before I was literally streaming smash
I turn it off for a sec
I plug everything back in
and suddenly no capture devices found
same with obs too
well, it actually reads the capture card
but it's just a black screen
Passthrough showing up?
passthrough?
HDMI output to your TV
oh
you mean the white glow it has for a sec?
yeah I got that
and the output is to my tv
still nothing
oh
WAIT A MINUTE
got it nvm
@cunning latch it won't let me join the corsair server
@primal widget sorry was busy with something else. Is it working now?
Merged is fine unless you're having problems. But if your passthrough display definitely supports your source, Internal should be fine
@south bronze Which Elgato model do you have?
I have my elgato as a clone of my monitor
If you're just cloning, then Internal is fine. Are you cloning at 144/240hz?
for streaming so i can get 144hz because my monitor doesnt support 144hz hdmi
But 144hz over displayport?
yea
Are you currently having problems with this setup?
Well for internal EDID, just set the EDID mode to internal. and set the EDID mode to 1080p or 1440p depending on the monitor.
1080p will allow for up to 240hz, but will make sure the GPU sends nothing more than 1080p. 1440p up to 144h.
ok thsnk you'
The EDID is essentially the identification of a monitor, it tells the device what sort of signals it can support. By choosing those EDID's you can force the 4K60 Pro to appear as a 1080p 240hz monitor or 1440p 144hz monitor.
On default, it still supports those but the GPU may think "Hey this is a 4K 60hz monitor, we should upscale our video and send 4K." So you can end up in some situations where you're fighting against Windows and your GPU. Selecting the EDID helps ensure the system is sending the right signal.
So it's not required to set those, but can help.
hi there, having problems downloading the stream deck app from the website. stops at 0.5/90.6 MB. Any suggestions?
Windows or Mac? @slender steeple
windows
Try downloading an older version like this: https://edge.elgato.com/egc/windows/sd/Stream_Deck_4.3.3.11845.msi
Then try doing an auto update within the software.
i tried thst also, same problem. also dl the control centre with no problems
stopped here, will fail soon
Does it happen in another browser?
wait one
I mean, try it in Chrome, Firefox, etc instead of the one you're using right now?
Or I can just upload the file here.
looks like it might be your end, it downloaded fine here
yep that work thanks.
It finished downloading?
Hey guys im running my stream decks on windows 10 to obs, after an update a month or so ago pressing the obs scene change buttons on my stream decks they dont swop the scene from preview to live and i have to manually do it in obs on my stream pc. Its making streaming very difficult, lol. Any ideas?
@young tapir What version of Stream Deck do you have installed?
Hey, so I was streaming with my new elgato hd60 s+ in streamlab obs and I noticed it having an audio delay when I move around on my xbox. Any way I can fix it?
oh sorry i have 24.0.3
Hi all can someone show me how i get the streamdeck kill counter etc to show in stream
@young tapir Well that would be OBS, head into Stream Deck settings, under the first tab 'General'. What is the version there?
Durp sorry 4.4.1.12187
Ok, when selecting a source, you should have a dropdown menu on the bottom of the window asking you where want to push an change.
"Studio Mode"
Program would be what you want
Not Sure if its correct here but i got a question:
I know the elgato 4k60 m2 (which i got) can do hdr. But i wondered if that is really "useful" for streaming on Twitch or Videos on YouTube.
Cause i read that it looks bad for viewers without hdr Monitors (which i guess are the most). So is there actually a real Use for it?
How do I set up discord audio to record?
I want to record the game while talking with someone
And want both to be recorded
@molten apex If you're streaming, the HDR is "tonemapped" to SDR so your viewers will see what the game would look like normally, relatively speaking. It's not 1:1, but close.
My recordings are set to 1080p60 in the 4K Utility software, but when I just move around in my game and look at the preview window, then to me it looks rather choppy. Could this be because my eyes are used to the 240hz monitor, which I've been gaming on for years now or?
Or is the playback always rather choppy and the smoothness is added is "postproduction" and when it finally hits Youtube or something, it's smooth and nice to watch?
Another question: 4K Utility says the source is 1080p239. This doesn't mess with anything? What I mean is, it shouldn't say 240?
@cunning latch thanks! Read that it looks kinda washed out for the viewers. So i was worried. But then i will look out for a hdr Monitor
@molten apex It will be washed out if it's not tonemapped, essentially since it will be showing the entire range of brightness. That's the super simple explanation.
But unless you're recording HDR, you don't need to do anything special the MK.2 does this process on the card, so you can play in HDR and any software using the card will look right.
@south bronze can you confirm the driver version by going into Device Manager > Sound, Video, and Game Controllers, and right clicking on the 4K60 Pro Mk.2 and going to Properties > Driver tab.
@grave ledge Sometimes 240hz is like 239.99 or some fractional. It's not uncommon.
Does the final file look choppy?
@cunning latch Final, as in all edited? Or when I look at the playback after recording
Meaning the just the file straight out of 4KCU
It comes out rather choppy
@grave ledge What are your capture settings in 4KCU and specs of the system? If you turn off flashback recording and just let 4KCU idle, does it seem choppy
I know you guys do not own OBS Studio, but has anyone here found a fix for the new updates removal of the NDI source? - THEY ARE NOT RESPONDING.
Rough, you have to redownload the NDI link...but not my ELGATO is flashing red. 😦
Okay, so I’ve downloaded the OBS Studio update and redownloaded the NDI plugin. Now when I connect my legato hd60s, it flashes white then red one tome. OBS studio does not see the device but El Gatos OBS Link does see the device. I cannot get the device to connect in OBS Studio. The hd flashes red every few seconds. I’ve also unplugged all of the usb device and have completed an SMC and NVRAM. I’ve also reset several times. Any solutions?
Hey, so I was streaming with my new elgato hd60 s+ in streamlab obs and I noticed it having an audio delay when I move around on my xbox. Any way I can fix it?
Does anyone here happen to own or have experience with the 4k60pro rev 2 capture card? I just bought one..... hooked everything up running duel pc as to not be confusing with what I'm going to say...... if I run the hdmi 2.0 line out of my gpu into the in of the capture card it works as soon as I use a 2.0 hdmi switch using only 2.0 cables both of them worked without switch.... it shows up on the computer as a monitor and I clone but no signal through the elgato utility or other utilities..... tried it with ps4 as well.... works without switch, with switch no signal..... I know there is communication happening because computer still picking it up

Hi all can someone show me how i get the streamdeck kill counter etc to show in stream
Hello, I want to set up my HD60S with my ASTRO MixAmp Pro TR for xbox/pc so I can hear game audio/party chat through the headset along with PC sounds. I have a separate mic for stream chat.

@south bronze Ok, looks like you're on the latest. have you had a ticket open about this issue? That looks like something the team would want to look into.
@sharp owl Mondays are busy. You're changing the resolution on the gaming PC to 4096? Is that the native res of your monitor setup?
@hard sun @floral jetty Yea, you should be able to go into Xbox Settings, Volume and Audio Output, and change Party Chat Output to Headset & Speakers.
Speakers being the TV speakers, AKA HDMI output to the capture card.
@cunning latch where in gaming pc!? in the game or!?
@sharp owl I mean in general, this isn't an option your doing on the capture card, right?
You're trying to send 4096x2160 to the card. Is this the resolution of your monitor? is 3840x2160 fine?
Hey, anyone online to help a noob with setup on my HD60s?
I posted on here last Friday night but was overlooked when everyone came online.
I'll repost it so no one has to scroll back that far. Hopefully someone can help, been looking forward to streaming with it.
vvvvvvv
I'll start by saying I have an HD60s. I HDMI'd my Nintendo Switch into the HDMI IN, and connected the HDMI OUT to my TV (We'll call this "Monitor A"). I connected the USB that came with it into my computer's USB 3.1 port (I've tried all the other ports as well to be sure 3.1 wasn't broken). The Elgato device flashed white, white, red. I opened my Game Capture HD software (on my 2nd monitor which we will call "Monitor B" Monitor B is set to duplicate Monitor A so I can see what Monitor A would show despite having changed its input over to my game console) and in the top right it states "No Capture Devices Found". I tried a variety of troubleshooting steps such as resetting the PC, resetting the elgato, changing out wires and ports, I even went into device manager and unticked all of the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" boxes on my USB 3.0... I wondered how I was receiving video and audio of the console through Monitor A if on Monitor B I can see that the elgato isn't working properly according to my pc's device manager. In the Device Manager it states "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
There are no compatible drivers for this device.
To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver."
For the life of me I could not find a driver for the elgato. I downloaded every video capture software I found on the elgato website and installed it all. Nothing works. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here?
I am having an issue with the game capture HD program, I can see the stream button when I load it up and have no accounts linked but once I add an account for it to stream to the stream button disappears and I can't go live. I haven't a clue why or what I am doing wrong so pls help ;-; I just wanna stream
Hey guys, Xmas came early for me and got my Elgato HD60S+ 2 days ago and as expected it's a great product it really lives up to the expectations that being said even though I downloaded the 4k capture utility I use OBS to record with it but the quality looks a bit off and don't know how to fix it and I was wondering if anyone could help me
Thanks in advance
@queen raft Have any details of your setup? What are you capturing?
Is the source at 4K, 1080p, HDR, SDR?
I'm capturing an Xbox one
But I investigated and my specs aren't that good so I already solved
But thanos
Thanks
My keylight is haunted.
Its off, but for some reason, it occasionally blinks.
Like around every 15 to 20 minutes
This is legit scaring me LOL

It is doing it in the brightness I configured it in though, thats not really bright.
Hi! i have a question
Gaming PC:
CPU: i7- 9700K
GPU: RTX 2080 Super 8GB
RAM: 16 GB
Streaming PC:
CPU: i9-9900
GPU: No Graphic card
Ram: 16
Elgato: 4K60 PRO
Using Program: OBS
i have 3 monitors, 1 monitor i connect to gaming PC 240hz , 2 monitors connect with streaming pc, my question is!!
*How to setup hdml cables with elgato!
- Can i stream with out graphiccard on my streaming pc!!
- how to setup in OBS for 4k straming pc
@sharp owl I can answer ur first question
HDMI from ur GPU to "HDMI IN" in the capture card
HDMI from ur main monitor to "HDMI OUT" in the capture card
Ur 9900k does have integrated graphics btw, so yes you can. If I was you, I would switch around the i9 for the i7 in your gaming PC. They both use the same integrated IGP
@grave ledge so i connect b4 HDMI from GPU to HDMI IN, in the capture card
Display port from GPU to Gaming Monitor and another HDMI OUT from capture car to Gaming Monitor, what do you think!!
@sharp owl Yes, if you use displayport for your monitor you just use that. And then yes, the HDMI port in your monitor to the capture card. Make sure you manually switch to displayport on the monitor. Mine kept switching to the HDMI input
@grave ledge so how to setup the resolution!?
@limber jewel So the Key Light is fully paired and controllable through software right now?
Also no. Everytime I boot up my PC my Streamdeck doesnt work.
It just shows the elgato logo
Rebooting the streamdeck software does not fix that issue
@cunning latch
But we lately have WiFi problems and those hit the studio hard. So that might cause the issue
I have lost 97% of all wifi signal in my studio.
The ISP is soon coming over to check it out.
So now that I think of it, I think its a WiFi issue.
how can mac users change their sound to analog for the hd 60s plus
@lavish heath Not sure (I don't use a mac), but will check into it. But the option should appear inside of Game Capture HD.
What software are you using to capture
I use obs Studio. Everything I’ve seen it says download the 4K capture card to set the audio settings, but that isn’t compatible with Mac. @cunning latch
Hey guys, quick question (and apologies if this is the wrong place to ask) - Is there any reason the Text system option has a 500 character limit? I am using this at work for email macros and the 500 character limit ends up being quite small... I realise I could do a multi action but it seems fairly long winded just to input text into an email. Thanks in advance!
(Should mention this is a Stream Deck question)
Well, the Canon EOS RP can't do a clean HDMI output with a EFS-S lens.
found that out the hard way
@rare kraken what info is it putting up on the display?
I can get the grid style, but think it's not a full 1080p
(I think I can hide the 3x3 grid)
Yeah to remove the displayed info (I have the EOS R) you have to keep pressing the info button until it is all hidden
But you have to be in video mode, not photo mode
yep, I have most of it hidden, aside from the 3x3 grid
I have it off there, but still shows on the live view
anyone use the astro mix amp with the hd60s for xbox one?
@humble stump yeah, but with a streaming pc & the HD60 Pro
Seems odd tbh @rare kraken - my HDMI output is totally clean even though the little flipout screen shows No card in camera and the AF box tracking my face
What do you have the HDMI Output set to in the settings
Nice!
i was hearing myself/party fine, but people watching said there was a static sound and in an attempt to fix it...i cant hear my own voice anymore in recordings. i have the astro mix amp's aux plugged into the line out of my pc for pc sounds. i have the streamport of the mix amp plugged into the elgato. i have the optical and usb cables plugged in from the mix amp to my xbox....
@humble stump you want party chat in the recordings as well?
I don't, or at least not with the recordings straight from the game capture program
well, when i'm streaming and playing with friends i don't want it to sound like im talking to myself
What I do is connect the stream output on the MixAmp TR to my PC audio input
in the MixAmp settings (Command Center app), I just send the Xbox Live party chat through that channel
If you want to record your own voice too, you can add your headset mic into that channel
but then to record everything, I typically use OBS
(I actually use the 4K Capture Utility so that I can record clean gameplay, then OBS to stream/record with party chat, my own mic, webcam, etc.)
i don't care much about recording. i meant i just want to be able for the stream to hear me and whoever i'm talking to.
With the 4K Capture Utility, you can use it to send a NDI signal to OBS so you can then also use the "clean feed" into OBS (else, elgato devices can only be used once in one program only)
@lavish heath Try going into OBS Studio's settings, then under Audio go to Mic/Auxillary Audio and see if Game Capture HD60 S+ is an option.
You may need to add it as an additional audio source that way.
@humble stump Do you use the mic on your headset for audio for your stream? or a separate mic?
for me, almost everything routes through VoiceMeeter, except for the game sound which is sent via HDMI to OBS
i use a different mic for the stream so i dont have to bother everyone else when i'm talking to someone in the chat
so I can adjust via VoiceMeeter or OBS independently
i use voice meeter as well
sounds like we have a pretty similar set up then, aside from the fact that I have another gaming PC setup with another MixAmp, lol
i have two issues now. one i cant hear myself in a party during test recordings for some reason.
if you skip to like 2 hours and 17 minutes its a prime example of the sound issue
ahh, so you mean your mic isn't showing up in XBL Party Chat
(via the on screen display)
it is. my sound was coming through and so was theres like i wanted, but theres weird static
ohh, it's only on the right channel
I only had in my left bud
left channel sounds completely fine
I'd recheck the cable
unplug, replug
change cables possibly as well to test
what was the other issue?
i can try that if i have more laying around but the big issue now is that if i do a test recording (trying to recreate my issue) i can no longer hear myself even when the mic is lighting up in the party chat
i'm talking, but theres no sound
and this is via talking through your XBL headset?
is your side-tone turned on for the MixAmp?
(that's for if it's the XBL headset mic)
the xbox side of stuff is what is causing the static. my other mic is directly in my pc
i believe it is turned on i can check
i think the mix amp updated so something may have changed
i even turned it all the way up. no sound.
i can hear menu audio and game sound just not my voice in the test recordings
@rare kraken
@hallow moon does the hdmi signal turn off from inactivity?
The screen on the camera will go off after 30 mins, but the camera will stay on indefinitely if you have the dc coupler
It wont stay on via usb charging - too slow
Using the Elgato 4K60 Pro Mk.2, what is the best way of using it, if I want to:
- Stream and record locally in 1080p, and be able to have the recorded gameplay with or without any overlay
- Be able to exclude my mic from the locally recorded gameplay
- Exclude Discord or music from the recorded gameplay
Thanks @cunning latch I’ll try that tonight
@grave ledge OBS and setup a recording profile
@exotic tiger Can you elaborate?
you ahve two scenarios listed for stream and record locally
one as is and one without overlay
those require two different methods to accomplish
and depending upon what your priorities are you could do 3 different things
to go with the simplest method, hit stream and record at the same time
here is what my record tab looks like
i do single PC streaming
