Hello peeps
I have a bit of an issue
I'm planning on buying a capture card
I'm a small time streamer
But I use a single pc set up
I was wondering if I can actually use a capture card
I stream pc games but the capture card would be for console
Can I buy the ones that go into your pci ports or should I get a USB one?
My set up already has an rtx 2060 super connected and my motherboard is the ASRock H310CM-HDV/M. 2

tender quartz
#

as long as you have usb 3 you should be fine with external, thats what i use. but really i guess it depends what console you are streaming.

river minnow
#

So the USB one should be the one I get then?

#

I plan on streaming PS5/4 and Switch

#

Right now I only stream PC

@steep briar its a 2 pc setup

#

hello guys, i just connected my Ring light to my computer. can i leave the ring light on, and turn it off in control center. or do i manually turn it off ?

tender quartz
#

@river minnowit depends on what resolution you are playing and streaming in.

river minnow
#

I play at 2k but stream 1080p

#

On PC games that is

cunning latch
#

@dapper tundra You can do either. But with the light switched on, but off in the software it uses a very small amount of power. I think it's less than 1 watt for running the electronics.

#

Oh that should be fine. Thank you crest!

@cold radish For MSI installers, this can sometimes be caused by permissions problems on the user account since it's installing to a temp directory first.

You can try this batch file to repair certain windows services needed for MSI installers. http://files.elgato.com/thcdownloads/egc_test/msirepair.bat

even still. i get the same installer is no longer responding

Hey everyone! I updated my Xsplit but my stream deck can't seem to realize that it's open (ie. can't use scene shortcuts on stream deck). Is anyone else having the same issue?

#

so i've connected my hd60s to all 3 of my usb3.0 ports but it still is telling me it needs to be connected to a usb 3.0. anybody have any ideas as to why this isn't working? please ping me for response.

@wintry leaf Try out some of the other suggestions here: https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041082531-Elgato-4K-Capture-Utility-A-USB-communication-issue-has-been-detected

If it continues, we'd probably need more information over an email ticket.

#

thank you. i'll check it out

#

@opal valley I'd also try the suggestions above. Could be USB or HDMI related.

But if it doesn't help we can always collect more info in a ticket to investigate if the device is the problem.

#

@silk turret Just viewing the output of another PC in a window? Not doing any capturing?

HD60 S+ can accept a 4K signal, but if it's 4K60, 1080p60 is sent into the PC. 2160p30 is sent right on through.

If you want 4K60 in the software, that'll be 4K60 Pro or 4K60 S+. 4K60 Pro for lowest latency.

#

@dawn marsh I have some instructions I can send you over DM about solving this.

do you need to use wave link software to enable low cut filter and clipguard @glad apex

@frozen vortex youll need to use the wavelink software to do most anything.

hey yall Im at a loss ive been trying to fix this for hours since I received my card at 12. I plug in the elgato to a 3.1 usb (this prob doesnt matter whatever 3.0) and then it connects, it shows that its connected to a 3.0 usb for a SPLIT second in devices settings, then it disconnects. after like 10 seconds it says that the device is not recognized. "Device descriptor request failed"

sorry if this question has been asked 100 times a day

Yesterday Xsplit updated for me and now Stream Deck will not work with xsplit anymore. I tried uninstalling both and reinstalling them. But every time I try to put a new scene up it says "please launch xsplit broadcaster" even though it's already launched. Is there an update that needs pushed through for stream deck?

So, I'm having this issue with my Elgato Capture Card but it's kinda weird and when I try to look it up I can't find anything on it

Basically, I like to have my elgato hooked up to any console I use so I can hear the audio come out of my computer (So I can listen to the game and watch videos or hear notification sounds from discord). The problem is, when I have the capture card hooked up and hook up the output to my second monitor, after a while, I can't switch my second monitor back to my computer screen without unplugging the elgato. It doesn't happen when the console is just directly hooked up to the monitor and the only way to fix it is unplugging the elgato from my computer which leads me to believe that's where the problem is. Does anyone know of this issue and a possible fix for it?

@dusk escarp In OBS go into the Properties for the HD60 S+, at the bottom click "use custom audio device", then click "Line (Elgato Capture Device)". There's also a Digital Audio Interface listed there, but that should be the HDMI audio. On your xbox or PS4 you'll want to make sure it's set to send the game audio and chat out that headset port.

Hi, I'm having an issue with random action: it works fine if I use play audio for each action,selecting a different one each time. However, I've tried using BAR Raider's "image settings" actions, to allow me to randomly pick an image to be displayed (each action is set to a different image). However, with this, only the first one in the list is ever selected. I'm not sure if this is a stream deck issue or a 3rd party plugin issue - is there a log that will help me please?

If I just want to play PlayStation games and stream them on PC with elgato and OBS. Should I buy a powerful CPU? GPU isn't needed as much?

I dont think you need too much if doing just console

#

My cousin wants to get a powerful GPU but I was saying CPU is what matters for console streamer. Need confirmation for you elgato PC pros

rich torrent
#

I mean you should be fine with Ryzen. If you go intel then gpu

remote river
#

This what he wants to get. I said why not a i9 better CPU to do things while streaming.

rich torrent
#

For the record, ryzen does multitasking better than intel

remote river
#

He wants a MAC trying to help with these details. The main topic is if he should max his CPU than get a decent GPU.

rich torrent
#

which cpu he got in mind?

cunning latch
#

If they're getting a Mac, please have them go with an HD60 S+ if they're looking at capture cards. It has the best mac support of any of our cards currently.

Needs no special drivers or software to be used.

@edgy oracle that\s weerd, did you select monitor only mute output_ If you did change that. Other then that check if the audio device is muted or not.

Hello, so I recently just bought the Samsung Odyssey G9 ULTRAWIDE (5120x1440), I have an HD60 S+, and I noticed that HDR + the 5120x1440p resolution are not available when I play my games. I started looking into the 4kPRO, but I wasn't able to get an understanding rather or not if that supports this resolution passthrough or not. Currently i'm forced to play my games at 3840x1080 i'd rather, play at my full resolution when i'm streaming. Any and all help regarding the proper elgato etc. would be welcome thanks.

Any reason why my Stream Deck keeps saying to launch Streamlabs OBS even though it is launched?
@spice sky Uninstall and reinstall the Streamdeck software. Usually this happens when the installer doesn't install the Elgato OBS plugin properly. As their plugin handles all of the interface with OBS (as far as I'm aware) if it isn't installed right/working then the SD software won't see OBS as running.

Similarly, if you installed OBS to an alternate location, it'd be possible that their installer may not be 'smart' enough to go find where it's installed; you'd have to check if the plugin exists in the default OBS install location, and copy it over if that is the case.

@cosmic vine Ok uninstalled and reinstalled stream deck and it's still not working. It's set up in preferences and is listed under account. When I click open streamlabs it takes me to a streamlabs page to donate to myself , and I'm logged in at the top right, Should I uninstall and reinstall slobs? It refuses to work and I can't set up anything to do with streamlabs.

Hello guys! I'm new here. I am using the Elgato 4k60 Pro Mk2 for my streaming pc. Yesterday I updated to the Firmware and Drivers to enable the RGB 4:4:4 output. Since then, my capture card (XRGB) will be laggy in OBS with the new profile and i set it back to default. After setting it back to default, it will be laggy after around 1 hr of usage and I have to deactivate and activate it to be smooth again. Any ideas?

#

Wondered if anyone else has gotten the same issue before, I tried recording content from my Switch into OBS, but every now and again the game capture software will just cut out and leave me with a black screen. It's sort of as if I had unplugged the power USB to the actual HD60. Not sure if this could be just faulty equipment, or something a little deeper.

What cable does the HD60 capture card use to connect to your PC? I can't seem to find an answer as to what that cable is anywhere on elgato's website

vivid harbor
#

HD60 S, HD60 S+, or HD60 Pro?
If you're talking about the HD60 S versions it is a USB3 C to A cable

idk, mine just says HD60 on it

Even the box it came in just says HD60

#

Gotcha, looks like the HD60 is an older model with a USB 2.0 cable

USB mini to A

Awesome. I need a longer one, which is why I'm asking

#

You can go about 16 feet without an active extension

Gotcha. I probably only need like 10 feet at most

I don't need it to go too far, but I need a longer one than what it came with

vivid harbor

Makes perfect sense

It looks like it

but, that's the beauty of Amazon

if it doesn't work, return it

just look at the connection on your HD60 (non-S)

So I I've had this HD60 Pro for a bit, but recently its doesn't receive any signal. I've reinstalled drivers and software multiple times and even the card itself. For some reason, audio seems to pass through but never video. To get it to work fully again I usually have to fully power down my PC and after some reboots, it eventually works again, but then the next time I open my PC its back to not receiving a signal. Any ideas?

#

oh and its not cables, ive tries multiple ones

Dang, maybe try reformating cables, possibly using a HDMI splitter?

@dusk escarp In OBS go into the Properties for the HD60 S+, at the bottom click "use custom audio device", then click "Line (Elgato Capture Device)".

Hello maybe someone might have experience with this. I have this weird zoom in effect on my monitor for some reason my set up is console hdmi to elgato then that hdmi to a monitor. I use a Mac for the streaming portion. The stream itself is fine it’s just my end when it comes to my monitor zooming in. I have overscan off on my Xbox and my monitor does not have overscan. I’ve tried this on a tv as well and the same problem occurs.

#

All my drivers are up to date I have and elgato hd60s and obs link so I can use streamlabs

I’ve tried changing aspect radios on my games and it still remains the same my monitor doesn’t have a aspect ratio option so

When I first set up wave 3 and wave link, I was able to hear my alerts from Streamlabs OBS, now I can't. I just followed the article on elgato's site, and it still is not playing the sounds.

cunning latch
#

@south bronze Can you explain further what you're looking to do? Instant Gameview means the latency is low from the capture card.

#

@bright lark 1440p144 and 1080p240.

Are you experiencing issues doing this?

south bronze
#

I understand that, but the USB 3.0 makes that possible, I dont have a USB 3.0 port on my pc, i was wondering if i turned that off would i be able to use the capture card?

cunning latch
#

That would not be possible, unfortunately. The way we provide low latency is by not encoding the video. We're sending uncompressed video which is huge. USB 3.0 is required simply due to the bandwidth needed for the video to enter the computer.

#

HD and HD60 had big delays since they encode the video before sending it to the PC.

#

Also if your PC doesn't have USB 3.0, it very likely is too old to meet our system requirements.

south bronze
#

I see

cunning latch
#

@burnt trellis If it's fine in the software, it would still lead me to believe it's something with the monitor. does it have per-input settings?

Do you have another monitor to test?

So what does RTMP do when you try it? Just doesn't begin the stream? Provides in error?

south bronze
#

would it be better to buy another elgato but instead a hd60?

cunning latch
#

What are your current system's specifications? CPU, RAM, video card, etc

lucid marten
#

It allows me to "start" streaming, but just spins for a long time. It eventually crashes.

#

3.2 Ghz 6 Core Intel i7
8 GB 2667MHz DDR4
Intel UHD 630 1,536 MB

#

The only thing that changed between one of my streams was that I installed the Stream Deck desktop app. After that I noticed the issue. I've since removed the software, but it still won't let me stream.

cunning latch
#

Sorry I meant specifications for @south bronze But that also is helpful :p

south bronze
cunning latch
#

6cores though, good.

#

@south bronze That system I think should have USB 3.0 given its age. But our recommendation would be to upgrade. The HD and HD60 were discontinued years ago.

HD60 S is our current entry level card.

And the i3-2100 is nearing 10 years old at this point. I wouldn't be able to recommend the HD or HD60 either for that level of system, even if you found some on the market still.

#

@lucid marten Which specific GCHD version do you have installed. Is this 2.11.11 ?

lucid marten
#

@cunning latch Yes, 2.11.11.

south bronze
#

gotcha 👍

lucid marten
#

Downloading an older version now.

#

When re-downloading though, it keeps the stream profiles/keys intact. I can't seem to find the file to delete. I've searched in ~/Library &/Library.

#

Tried versions 2.11.11, 2.11.10, 2.11.9, & 2.11.8. No luck with any of them.

cunning latch
#

Hmm. ok Mac isn't my area of expertise, but I'm asking about these symptoms in a support chat.

lucid marten
#

& I fixed it. I use Restream as my platform. For some reason I needed to sign into my Twitch via the Stream Command section. Using my 2FA app wasn't working either. I needed to request an SMS for some reason. After that, it seems to be working. Will report back after I re-install the newest version.

cunning latch
#

oh...

#

Interesting

lucid marten
#

So I re-downloaded the latest version of Game Capture HD 2.11.11 & the stream button is greyed out, until I select Twitch & then select Restream. After "going" live I get an "Could not log in to the streaming service.
(Error 500), Please make sure your username and password are correct.". I'm 100% putting these in correctly. I re-logged on to Restream & unlinked & linked both my Twitch & YT accounts for good measure. I then removed Restream from Game Capture & re-logged in as well. Still getting the error. 😦

#

I'm just streaming to Twitch now. Sad I can't use Restream. Hopefully someone can figure this out.

Hey guys, got a bit of an issue with my 4k60 S+ that arrived today.

#

Trying to hook it up from my PS4 Pro to my PC and I get a signal on my monitor but I can't get a signal on the TV when the PS4 Pro's resolution is set to 2160p - YUV420.

#

If I drop it to 1080p then it gives me the signal on my tv too but obviously it's not the quality i'm looking for.

Hi - I have a Wave 2 and everytime I use one of the online meeting apps (Teams, Google Meet etc.) it takes control of gain in Wave Link and reduces the volume of my voice. I don't have a projecting voice and find it disconcerting to hear myself get quieter! The moment I increase gain I literally watch it being reduced in real time. Is there anyway to prevent this from happening so that whatever gain I set stays put?

tender quartz
#

@grim hedge you need to disable the auto gain or autovolume control in those applications

grim hedge
#

Hi @tender quartz I would but I've scoured their settings and that doesn't exist

tender quartz
#

i definitely exist in teams

#

and discord

#

oh my bad

grim hedge
#

OK. I tend to use Google Meet to be honest and haven't seen it there - but I appreciate if it's at the client end it's not for this space so I'll toddle off and Google it 🙂 Thanks for your help

tender quartz
#

you are right, it doesnt exist in teams

#

so what i did in teams is put the stream out as the input to teams

#

because the stream out doesnt have a gain control

grim hedge
#

Yeah, I know there is a lot of control in Discord, but in the meeting apps it seems to be automatic. If I use a standard mic though it doesn't happen.

#

Oh - that sounds like a great solution!

tender quartz
#

its worked for me so far

grim hedge
#

Brill - I'll definitely give that a go. Thanks for your help 🙂

tender quartz
#

no problem

#

@grim hedge just remember to mute everything but mic from the stream output during calls.

grim hedge
#

Yes - good advice!

vivid harbor
#

that way they can't hear you sneak a game in 😉

bright lark
#

@cunning latch cloning the 1440p 144hz and recording at 120hz will be my plan.

boreal kernel
#

Guys, with the HD60 Pro, what honestly is the latency? I have the buffering set to disabled but I can't seem to figure out the latency, 150-166 is all I seem to get it around but sometimes it looks synced, other times it looks off?

cunning latch
#

@bright lark You'd get some stutter since you can't evenly divide 144 by 120. Running the game at 120 would be smoother.

If you want to natively record 120fps, you'll be using third party software like OBS. You'll need to set the 4K60 Pro to 'Highest FPS' for OBS to input it.

bright lark
#

@cunning latch does this also work if I were to use 144fps instead of 120?

cunning latch
#

When using a capture card, the key thing is the refreshrate. The capture card only sees the refreshrate, not the underlying framerate. Since each refresh is a new image sent from the GPU, source, etc

So doesn't necessarily matter the fps of the game. But the game or clone setup ideally should be set to 120Hz for the smoothest capture for 60fps streaming or 60fps recording.

limber basin
#

So after ordering new 2.1 cables for my 4K60S+ and trying them out, i'm still getting no signal on the TV (I get a picture on the monitor when using the 4K Capture Utility). HDCP is turned off and i've tried playing around with the settings but it will only display on both if i change it down to 1080p.

#

Admittedly my TV is a bit older, it's an LG 4K TV from about 7 years ago which has no HDR but still outputs 2160p - YUV420 just fine.

#

It's a shame, because I was hoping that this device would make life a lot easier for recording but it looks like i'm going to have to return it.

Hi guys,

I found problem when trying to stream a game using Elgato. My device is HD60S+ and Samsung Galaxy S20+. I found some of my stream scene was missing. And then I change my phone screen resolution from UHD to FHD and it works. The question is, is there any other tricks because I realize that my stream quality isn't really good ( I mean, I can't stream in higher resolution than 1080). Second questions is, when is Elgato HD 60S+ support Game Capture outside the 4k Utility?

cunning latch
limber basin
#

Not yet, in the process of doing it now. Was hoping that someone here might have had some advice before I did.

cunning latch
#

It's possible this requires a firmware update. But I'd leave that to once the team collect more system information and information about the card to see if anything points to what the issue might be.

limber basin
#

Ah ok

tender quartz
#

@dreamy crane streaming in 1080 takes a lot of processing power, what are you using to stream

dreamy crane
#

@tender quartz I use PC sir, but capture my phone screen

#

yes, what are your pc specs

dreamy crane
#

i7 9th generation
GTX 1080 ti
16 GB of RAM

#

ssd I mean

tender quartz
#

what software are you using to stream?

dreamy crane
#

OBS Streamlabs, sir

tender quartz
#

have you set up your bitrate?

dreamy crane
#

Yes, I got no problem when I streaming from my pc. The problem is when I streaming using my phone, I captured the screen and then output to my PC. Some scenes was missing, and then I change my phone resolution and it never happen again. But now my stream quality doesn't look really good.. I wish I can stream with my phone native resolution

tender quartz
#

ahhh i see

dreamy crane
#

I use 2 PCs when I streaming a PC games.

tender quartz
#

well UHD should still be over 1080p

dreamy crane
#

The pc streaming looks good, I can record in 4k and stream in 2600 pixel

tender quartz
#

nice

dreamy crane
#

I googling, I saw people can use Game Capture with HD60S+ on Mac but not with windows

tender quartz
#

well i think i missunderstood the problem and dont think i can help. i dont have much experience with streaming a phone screen

dreamy crane
#

It's ok sir, for now my problem is solved, but like I said before, my stream quality doesn't look good enough

@desert nova We have people over the phone who can walk you through an issue if you need one on one help: http://e.lga.to/phone

@zenith totem Unfortunately that's not possible right now. Closest I could think of is to use our SDK to develop a plugin with Stream Deck.

#

@south bronze Are you capturing a PC or something like a console?

@bright lark I've said it supports 1080p240 1440p144 passthrough and capture like three times for you. 4K Capture Utility only supports capturing at 60fps. Even if the input is 240hz.

For over 60fps video capture you'll need some third party software like OBS Studio. You'll need to set your canvas FPS to that higher FPS though. And the in the properties of the 4K60 Pro layer, set the Resolution/FPS mode to Custom. Choose the input resolution. And set FPS to "Highest FPS"

So 4KCU will do 720p60, 1080p60, 1440p60, 2160p60 regardless of the input framerate.

You can use 4K Capture Utility for one card and OBS or something else for the 2nd 4K60 Pro. But only one instance of 4K Capture Utility can be open at once.

@warped lantern I can send your some firmware instructions for this over DM.

#

@grave hazel Could you post a screenshot of this?

obsidian ingot
#

Mine's a regular HD60, will that not be possible then?

cunning latch
#

HD and HD60 operate fundamentally differently, which is why in OBS Studio we have that little helper software which runs a small version of Game Capture essentially to feed video into OBS.

#

So unfortunately here, the HD or HD60 can't be used with VLC directly.

obsidian ingot
#

Aw damn ok

#

Thank you though

bright lark
#

Do you happen to know why the 4k capture utility puts the hard limit on 60fps recording? I've tried to understand the reason behind it but it seems odd to restrict your own hardware with a software limitation.

grave grail
#

Hey guys

#

I just installed the 4k60 pro on my streaming pc. Would it be smart to run my GPU as the primary encoder in the 4k utility software as opposed to the CPU? Asking bc I run 4K utility when I’m streaming, (not necessarily recording) and I believe it uses responders from the cpu while streamlabs is trying to encode with the cpu.

south bronze
#

@cunning latch sorry, I wasn't clear. I'm capturing from a console using my pc. Considering the wii was never designed to be recorded in HD, could that be the issue?

cunning latch
#

@bright lark That's just what was developed. Don't believe it's any specific limitation, but it will take more development time to open up that limit.

But other software that captures from Directshow devices can do higher fps recordings right now.

#

But keep in mind that much of the software is with console capture in mind. We have an open feature request for high FPS capture though.

#

Maybe with Xbox Series X coming out it will be moved forward.

I don't mean to be rude. But i was just wondering if i could get a little help?

Hello there. I want to use Elgato to capture my nintendo Wii. I wanna play a gamecube game and i use Wii2Hdmi to plug it into Elgato. But when i open it. This happens

#

Also i should probably say that i have used Elgato for a while now to capture my Nintendo Switch and i have had no problems

lone trail
#

Hello?

#

If you are busy let me know and i will wait. I just kinda want an answer so i know i am not doing something wrong or being ignored :D

grave hazel
#

@cunning latch it's hard to see exactly what I mean unless you know the games quite well, but basically everything is either too dark, washed out, or slightly green, or a combination of the three. We've tried messing with every setting we can find in 4k Capture Utility but it seems to do something random every time we change a setting

cunning latch
#

@lone trail Sorry, I'm switching in between various tickets right now. That particular adapter has had a spotty history if my memory serves. Notably audio problems.

But looks like it's sending an interlaced signal to the capture card. Does it provide any other modes?

#

@grave hazel And you said this happens even with HDR disabled?

#

Any issues with the TV/Passthrough?

lone trail
#

Oh that is fine. Please take the time you need to respond. I just had to make sure ,:D. But may i ask what you mean by other modes?

cunning latch
#

Does the Wii2HDMI adapter have any buttons on it? Or you just plug it in and then that's it.

lone trail
#

There are no buttons but the only things are these. I don't use the audio thing tho so maybe that can be the problem?

grave grail
#

I feel like all of my questions are getting skipped over.

#

Not a single person here has answered my questions in the last 3 hours

grave hazel
#

@cunning latch no problems with passthrough at all, and yes it happens with HDR disabled

#

it's much worse with HDR though

#

but I don't really want to have HDR off when I'm playing

south bronze
#

hlw

cunning latch
#

@grave grail Almost always better to use GPU encoding than CPU. Which is why we have 4K Capture Utility defaulting to GPU encoding.

#

For streaming, CPU makes more sense unless you're using a much newer RTX card.

#

@lone trail I'd try connecting a 3.5mm analog cable from that audio port into the analog port on the HD60 S you're using.

#

I think I've suggested that workaround in the past. Unsure how good the audio from that converter is though.

#

@grave hazel I still think I'd need an image. But if you think the device is faulty, go ahead and email us here: http://e.lga.to/help

Run this utility: http://e.lga.to/reporter It will make a zip file called SupportInfo on your desktop. Attach that to the email form. Hopefully we can then see what the issue is in some tracelogs.

lone trail
#

Oh dude that might be it actually. I plugged my earbuds on there and the sound was perfect. I sadly don't have a analog cable here that i can use but if it worked with my earbuds then i bet that is the problem. Thank you very much :D.

cunning latch
#

My guess is that the converter doesn't handle converting the analog sound from the Wii to digital very well when that game is running for whatever reason. Those Wii2HDMI converters are pretty generic I think.

if the issue is only audio and the audio coming out of the port is good. Shouldn't be too tough to make it work with a couple extra cables.

lone trail
#

Yeah that makes sense. I will try it out when i get an analog cable and if you don't hear any of me again. It most likely worked :DD

#

I need help

cunning latch
#

@grave hazel Hmmm. I'm not sure what may be causing this. If you've reset all of your other settings in the Picture Options in 4K Capture Utility settings then this may be an issue with the device. HD60 S+ doesn't use a driver provided for us so there is nothing for me to have you reinstall.

Still would suggest the email and supportinfo log file. Agents should then be able to find something.

#

@tight spire HD60 S isn't able to be directly used in OBS on Mac. They'll need to use Game Capture HD or use a tool from us called OBS Link: https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360031363132-OBS-Link-Setup

HD60 S+ works directly in OBS on macOS without any special software.

Ok... I've tried reinstalling Stream Deck with OBS closed... still isn't picking up the Elgato SD plugin for OBS (on v 26.0.2).

I'm getting really ticked off right now . . . It seems half the time when I get SD software updates, it completely uninstalls the plugin off OBS and doesn't work even after reinstalling SD software. If I can get it working again I may just NEVER update the software ever again.

Ok I even tried uninstalling, Restarting my PC, and then installing fresh, still no go. "Elgato Remote Control plugin is missing." -- If only someone had the .dll available that'd fix my issue I think...

The 4k60 Pro - is that HDMI 2.1?

Can’t find specs online anywhere - website only says “hdmi port”

@grave grail when you use capture card - do you HAVE to have OBS or Elgato Capture software open to hear the game or does it play through regardless?

better going for a monitor

tender quartz
#

@west path im sorry, I'm not trying to be mean. I'll explain.
When using a TV the console is doing the graphics processing. The TV is just showing the picture. Using a computer is the same way. The gpu is sending the picture to the monitor.

Now when you use a capture card. You take the picture info from the console. Convert it to data to send over USB, then the laptop takes that data and the gpu turns it back into something the screen can display.

All of these conversions take processing and all the processing takes time. And even though it's a little bit of time, it adds up. And if your laptop gpu isn't very good it becomes pretty large.
This Is fine for streaming because the viewer isnt interacting with the game. But trying to play with that delay is terrible if not impossible.

west path
#

yeah I understand, and my GPU is junk, so it definitely wouldn't work very well lol

#

you've probably just saved me 40 or so dollers

bleak portal
#

Hey guys. I'm currently having a problem where a game isn't being picked up by the wavelink software. Anyone know of any trouble shooting for this?

tender quartz
#

@bleak portal some games audio doesnt allow to be routed(it should show up under what ever is set as your default audio out in windows) this is usually system sounds in wavelink. i would make sure that you have followed the set up guide on the elgato site. then you can try earrtrumpet as suggested by the elgato FAQ .

bleak portal
#

It does show up in the list within windows audio settings and I can assign it to an input in wave link, it just doesn't come through that input

tender quartz
#

yes, so as i said , some games audio cant be routed.
you can try to route it using ear trumpet.
or
you can set the default output in windows to be a wavelink channel (i use system sounds) and then set the game output to default in the windows settings. this will force it into the wavelink channel

bleak portal
#

For system sounds, it doesn't allow me to change the output to anything, it's just stuck on default

tender quartz
#

you need to change the default windows output, to a wavelink channel. it will be the very first thing, near the top left of the window that allows you to change the games output

#

all the sounds on the computer will be sent through what ever is set on the top line.

bleak portal
#

So like this?

tender quartz
#

so if you have that set to a wavelink channel you can force games into wavelink that cant normally be routed

#

yes

#

so your game should show up in the system channel in wavelink now.

you may need to restart the game for this to take effect

Ok

#

Hot damn it worked. Thank you for the help dude. Much appreciated

tender quartz
#

just so you know, you may wat to disable windows system sounds and notification sounds as they will also play through that channel @bleak portal

#

small price to pay

#

for working game audio

#

or just turn that system sound slider all the way down while streaming

Will do. Again, thank you

One last question. I guess it's best to route all my games through the system channel correct?

tender quartz
#

thats up to you. i try to route all my games through games, but sometimes a few wont work so im forced to use system.

anything set to "default" on that windows setting page will go through what ever is set in that first line at the top

My spotify integration has been acting weird now for 3-4 days. Sometimes my play/pause works and sometimes it don't, not sure whats wrong. I tried reinstalling and downgrading to an older version of stream deck but nothing seems to work. I also have tried revoke approval and and reconnect my spotify but still no fix.

Hey guys, my elgato hd60 pro goes fully no signal after I alt tab from game like 2 times. Only restarting streaming pc helps. It’s not “no signal” for a sec

Is there anyway to use the Credits from StreamLabs command on Stream Deck for a moderator or administrator? I have a Twitch account and we have multiple people stream to the channel from all over Illinois. It is not feasible to share the account and password with them but I would love for there to be a way for them to use their Stream Decks to run the credits like I do. Right now its like 7 or 8 clicks to get to that page and requires so much more extra work instead of just adding it to a Multi Action on the SD.

worldly aurora
#

@tender quartz no. it seems since a windows update but ive checked everywhere i can think of

@drifting radish Unfortunately not. But it's the CPU. AMD APU's (A6, A7, A9, etc) from before Ryzen are all below spec for our products.

Thanks for the feedback. My laptop is also Windows 8, but I should have other machines with the reqs

Feel free to post those and we can take a look at them.

4th Gen Intel i5 (Quad Core) is what we tell people to look for. So this would be like an i5-4670 or about that. Or modern Ryzen is excellent.

anyone know how to fix a wave 3? not appearing on any inputs anywhere after being asked to install something by elgato support

we dont know what that is lol

I have tried emailing them straight after i did what they told me to do

#

@uncut elbow is the usb port usb 3? if so do you have anything else plugged into the other usb 3 ports. sometimes if they share a controller it can cause issue

uncut elbow
#

The thing is my pc doesn’t have usb 3.0 ports

tender quartz
#

well is part of the spec for the capture card is usb 3.0

uncut elbow
#

At least I’m pretty sure they don’t

#

Damn

tender quartz
#

you need the bandwidth of 3.0 for the data

uncut elbow
#

So there’s no work around?

tender quartz
#

you might be able to buy a usb 3.0 pcie expansion to plug into

#

but you need usb 3.0

uncut elbow
#

How much are they

tender quartz
#

or buy a new motherboard lol

idk youll have to look that up

and make sure you have room for one on your motherboard

Ok so my windows 10 regular computer runs the game capture

hi guys
I'm having a problem starting ads with streamdeck as of 1-2 months
my twitch profile is connected fine and it would work after restarting the streamdeck program, but, today, I tried that, and even after restarting, it didn't work, had to use the default /commercial xx command from the chat
anyone having the same issue?

Hello! Here is something I need help with, so I have my main game open wich obviously produces sound that gets picked up and I have this scene that I switch to from time to time ( a minigame for viewers ) that produces sound aswell. I wanted to go to that scene while the sound of my main game gets blocked. I heard this is possible with a streamdeck?

#

Should there be a quality difference between the screens of a StreamDeck XL and a regular Stream Deck? Moving buttons over to the XL, and the colours are... Different.

opaque mist
#

The XL feels like the screen just isn't as colour correct as the regular Stream Deck, grey isn't grey it's more, orangey/grey, and whites aren't white... Is that normal?

tender quartz
#

@opaque mist I think the xl may have higher res screens, I can't remember currently but the colors should not be how you describe

opaque mist
#

@tender quartz Hang on, I have a pic... The XL feels like it's using a lower quality panel or the colours are off, it feels too orange/warm

tender quartz
#

@acoustic talon ive had that issue since the software update last week

opaque mist
#

So here. On the XL you can see the grey is... not grey @tender quartz

#

Apologies for the not so great quality picture, but it thankfully still clearly shows the difference.

tender quartz
#

Interesting. I'm not at mine right now but that doesn't seem right

opaque mist
#

@tender quartz That at least makes me feel a bit better, I was sat here thinking I was going crazy, and trying to explain the issue is tricky, as they would surely use the same kind of panel/screen, so the contrast should be the same and colour temp is a weird subject. I'll stay here and see if anyone else can help but I'll go ahead and throw a support ticket in just in case.

Thank you 🙂

acoustic talon
#

I've seen other people saying the same, that the colors are washed.

#

@acoustic talon ive had that issue since the software update last week
@tender quartz was driving me nuts already, I would restart it before every stream and it wouldn't work, now even after the restart? 😔

Has anyone had issues with the HD60s & Nintendo Switch when trying to capture at 1080p60? Specifically the pass-through to my monitor is flickering every few seconds. The OBS capture preview and output is perfect. I have tried replacing all of the HDMI cables, switching USB 3.x ports and restarting but no luck. If I set the output on my Switch to 720p, everything works fine. Does anyone have advice on something I could have missed?

Hello, I currently use the HD60 Pro Capture Card and it does 1080p 60fps.
With the 4K60 Pro can I get 1080p 144fps in obs? Or it's just 1080p 144fps pass-through and in obs I will still get 60fps.

Thank you

Alright. I heard back from ReStream support & we confirmed it wasn't a a connection issue on my end. Support said it's an issue with the Elgato Game Capture HD software. The "Go live" button is still greyed out. RTMP & the ReStream account options provide the same result. Separately streaming to other individual accounts works fine.

More info:
I've reinstalled Game Capture HD multiple times. I've tried the 5 latest versions as well. I unlinked & relinked all accounts with GCHD & ReStream. I've deleted all Elgato files from my ~Library. Lastly I've used MacOS 10.15 & MacOs 11.

Really hope someone at Elgato can figure this out. I really wish I could multi-stream again.

tender quartz
#

@lucid marten if you have not you should put an official support ticket in with elgato since this seems like a complex problem

Alright @tender quartz. Thanks for the heads up.

My 4K60 Pro is dropping signal, it started this today. The only thing I changed on my computer was disabled MCE (I re-enabled it to see if it fixed the issue and it didn't).

I've tried every possible fix. I've tried different cables. I've hard reset my PS4. I've tried doing the cold boot fix. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers and applications. I've tried all kind of settings, and nothing works, this problem seems to persist.

I did get it from Amazon, on Prime Day, I got a Like New warehouse deal. It did work for a few days perfect, now I have nothing but issues with it. It does seem to be software related as this problem is not carried over to my TV, my TV doesn't blink out a No Signal warning at random. This seems to be just software. It happens in both the 4K Capture Utility and OBS (more so here).

I've also came down to the conclusion that it could be my graphics card, it is a GTX 960, not a 10 series card, but my CPU is the i7 10700k, I have tried running it both off my CPU and Graphics Card, both result in the same. I have even tried the inbuilt software which also brings up the issue, I'm at a lost here what to do.

Here is a video of the issue, captured from the 4K Capture Utility software.

https://youtu.be/X9t3RkPNPrA

#

it is also MK.II card. In the last slot of my PCIe, x4.0.

tender quartz
#

I don't think 960 meets minimum spec

tulip valley
#

that's what i been thinking, the only issue is that it did work flawlessly for the first few days i have had it

#

i didn't change any settings at all between then and now, besides disabling MCE on my board, but that really shouldn't have caused this

#

i am getting a 3070 soon hopefully, but im unsure if it will fix the issue ive been having

#

this issue only popped up today

#

ok

#

from what i can see

#

i have been having the exact same issue as what someone else had on one of the subreddits

#

whereas it recorded ok at 1080p setting on ps4 (this is not preferred by myself as i use a 4k tv), but struggles when the ps4 is set to 4k, the issue is that i have had 4k set for last few days, and it worked

is there something wrong with Elgato sound capture? All of a sudden it has just stopped sending my gaming PC audio to my streaming PC... It makes no sense. My streams have been fine up until yesterday and then my chat informed me I had no game sound

#

i seemed to have fixed it by stripping the elgato software completely off my computer

#

both the updated driver and 4k software

#

using streamlabs and it doesn't seem to be cutting out, will let know later if it remains like that

#

nvm discovered its only showing my ps4 in 1080p

reinstalled the 4k software, seems to be working, but that could differ later

seems to be good, working after a restart, will update if the problem comes back

#

Still needing help

tender quartz
#

@whole hearth sorry I meant to reply earlier but fell alseep(I am sick)

The encoder on that card is for recording to an SD card I believe

#

You probably don't need it

#

If you don't know what it does

whole hearth
#

Oh ok and do u think I should get 4K for the 140 or is 60 ok

tender quartz
#

I do not know

cunning latch
#

@whole hearth The hardware encoder in this specific instance isn't something you need to seek out. Mostly just for information here letting you know there is a hardware encoder. But the hardware encoder here is why it doesn't have instant gameview. There is a small delay between what comes in from the console and what shows up in the video preview in the software.

The hardware encoder is needed in order for standalone SD-Card recording to work. If you're never going to use standalone recording, then the HD60 S+ is probably better for laptop users who aren't doing 4K recording.

#

@tulip valley If you're never doing HDR, then a 960 is more than adequate. It can do 4K 60fps encoding just fine. 10 series is needed if you're doing HDR recording.

Does running the PS4 in 1080p mode result in better stability? Does it cut out more at 4K?

#

@wheat fractal 4K60 Pro can passthrough and capture 1080p up to 240fps. Keep in mind though that our 4K Capture Utility software is only setup to capture to a 60fps file. So you'll need third party software to make a 120, 144, or 240fps recording.

If you're using OBS, you cans end 120, 144, 240 into OBS. But you'll need to setup OBS to actually record that to a file.

Hello I got an Elgato HD 60 S yesterday and after 5 minutes of using it, it gets very hot, how can I cool it down?

#

Hey gang, so I got a new computer about a week ago and have had an Elgato HD60S for about a year now. With my old computer, it worked absolutely fine. When I’m trying to make it work with my new computer, I get constant disconnects within 15-20 seconds, sometimes followed by a “the usb device malfunctioned & windows can’t recognize it”. I’ve tried literally everything, watched every troubleshooting YouTube video, and nothing.

I thought it was the cable at one point to so connected the usb to usb-c to my surface laptop and it works fine, video and everything.

I noticed that when I connect it to the laptop, I get the white status lights that flash to let you know it connected. But when I connect it to my PC, I get pink(?) lights.

Hey. Ive had this problem for a while now, Whenever i alt+tab out of any full screen application(Game etc) my elgato ''source'' turns into this green flickering mess, As you can see in the picture. This occurs both in the 4K capture utility and im Streamlabs OBS. Im using a elgato capture card 4k60pro mk2. The fastest way to fix this is to tab in and out a couple of times until the screen returns to normal. Also as you can see, the windows search bar is in the middle of the screen, this also happens sometimes with games. Wich means the game gets split up into 2-4 different borderless windows. Cant really find anything on the internet about my problem 😦 please help!

Hello,
i stream PS4 games and to get my game sound in my headset i use elgato chat link cable.
now when i play i reposion myself in my chair. that way i move the controller and then i get small noice in my headset.
most of the time i rest my arms and hands on my legs. and i still get the bad static/feedback sound for a few seconds.

The sound does not come on stream.
i try to give the cable some room and my legs so it does not get stuck or bend.
i bought already 4 new ones. and my first new one is starting afther a week with the same problems.

has someone else had this or can help me a bit.
it is irritating me a bit. and i can't believe its just a bad made cable.

I do not have my controllers charged while i play/stream. maybe casual but then i am not useing the chat link cable.
so that can not be the problem.

Sorry for my bad english.

Hey. The last couple days my HD60S+ has been dropping my game audio at different parts during the stream. I'll be playing and everything will be going smooth and then I'll glance at OBS and notice theirs no audio being detected from my HD60S+. It only recently started happening and is seemingly random. Any common causes of this I should be aware of? I'm pretty new to all of this, so my current fix is to remove and re-add the source, at which point it goes back to working correctly.

I just got an elgato game capture HD with some of the cables including the chat link cable. My monitor doesn't have a headphone port so what I want to do is stream gameplay from my PS4 and Switch where I can plug my headphones into the chat link cable to hear the audio, and for the viewers to be able to hear the audio as well. I looked online and saw that I had to put the audio input to Analog Audio in order for the software to hear it and to hear it through my headphones, but that does not work at all for me. I did all that on my ps4 and I can't hear audio through either the software or my headphones connected to the chat link. I want to stream using the elgato software itself since there is a 2 or 3 second delay for the game capture HD and the webcam delay is the same. I attached a photo showing my elgato game capture HD with the audio cables connected all the way through my ps4 controller. Any help would be appreciated thank you.

#

is there any way i can be able to listen to my my switch audio without it coming out through my desktop audio?

#

because it comes out from both the video capture device and my desktop audio, making it display the audio twice at the same time when i stream/record

Might just be me, but it seems NVIDIA Broadcast Mic Noise Removal doesn't work too well with Elgatos 4k Capture Utility

Hello.
I'm in need of help.

I'm using Elgato Game Capture HD 60 S to capture the Nintendo Switch game screen.
The screen appears on software, but not on passthrough screen.

I've checked the wires and everything is working fine.
I tried changing the resolution from 1080p to 720p but that didn't work.

The weird thing is that if I have my desktop computer off and then turn on my Nintendo Switch, the passthrough monitor turns on and the game screen shows up without any problem.
So I tried to turn on my computer from there but as soon as the computer boots up, the passthrough monitor turns red and doesn't show the game screen.

So from there, I tried opening up the software on computer and it shows the game screen on it but not on the passthrough monitor.

Does anyone know if I’d be able to use a 4K60 Pro with a Ryzen 3 3100 and a GTX 1050-Ti. I only want to stream at 1080p 60Hz. I just need the 4K60 Pro for the 1440p 144hz passthrough as that’s what my monitor and the Xbox Series X will output. Please @ me or PM me if you know. Thanks

Hello, I'm having some issues, I have a Stream Deck XL and I was having issues installing the update so I uninstalled the software and I went to reinstall it and I keep getting an error saying I can't install it.

(this isn't that important, but i was just wondering)

#

If I get a USB mic such as an Elgato Wave, is there an easy way to convert it to XLR for an audio interface?

@opal badge Click on the Gear icon, click on the Profiles tab, then click the Plus button

@silver agate absolutely not. I mean. Technically you could push the audio from your pc audio out then get a 3.5mm to XLR adapter and plug your pc into the the mixer or XLR input. But make sure it doesn't have phantom power or you're going to ruin your pc.

The key to remember is the mic doesnt work without wavelink and wavelink doesn't work without the mic. They are one.

#

@opal badge it doesn't look like your streamdeck is plugged in/being detected by the software

quiet saffron
#

@opal badge I've not seen that message, but if it was me, I'd think that the stream deck wasn't attached?

anyone have the el gato 4k60 and is it good but it allows 240hz correct

#

hey, i just got a capture card today and i want to start streaming, but it keeps saying "Game Capture HD60S needs to be connected to a USB 3.0 port to function properly." can anyone help me with this please?

paper gorge
#

i rly want to stream but this problem is being annoying

lucid needle
#

is it definitely plugged into a usb 3.0 port? worth checking

paper gorge
#

it's plugged into my laptop...

#

i'm not that good with tech stuff but the port is blue inside, so i think it's usb 3

tender quartz
#

blue port should be good but is not always a correct indicator, you should look up your laptop model and verify you have usb 3 ports

lucid needle
#

@paper gorge what laptop do you have, i can check for you if you are not sure how
