Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It's still worth noting those limitations, as if you need the 4k recording, the camlink pro is probably the better route to go. The recording limitations aside, this product works very well and will allow you to use your favorite camera along with you...  Read More

Download the avermedia recentral 4 and install. The official capture software is superior to elgato’s, both in smoothness and ease to use. I am someone who has been using extrnal capture cards for awhile, but i always seemed to have some nagging issue...  Read More



Cons

Upon installing the capture card would appear undetected. There was something sticky on the manual with some scuff marks on the actual device.

Obs only uses what's made available through directshow. No resource goes above 35% usage (ram). The game freezes daily in there. Selecting 'highest fps' and 'match output fps' while outputting at 240fps does not cause the card to input 240fps into obs...  Read More

The tape on the dust sleeve was already removed and there were no ties for the cables. The signal couldn't be found and without doing more tinkering this card is now a brick in my computer.

Quality


Its great for 4k60 recording and high framerate recording aswell


Capture quality is fantastic no complaints there


The active signal resolution is always incorrect the firmware fails to update and the avermedia support is unresponsive


One of the biggest problems ive had with these kinds of devices is the latency

Price


Do not go the cheap route because thats were your audio and video issues come in at


The price is decent for this and the input latency was minimal which is a plus


Truthfully this card really shines when you stream at 4k content not sure about 1440p but for the price i couldnt say its worth it

Shipping


Fast card and does exactly what it needs to do

Packaging/appearance


This one i took it out of the box opened my pc case and popped this card into the open 1x slot plugged in my camera and viola


The recorded video looks great im using it for recording more than streaming

Competitiveness


Now i know that after this product came out elgato released the camlink pro which allows four inputs but at the time this was t...  Read More


Like most people i was brainwashed into assuming that elgato is the better product i guess because theyre a bigger company


Better than competition it has some glitch problems when you turn reccentral on and also my frame rate drops when i use obs bu...  Read More

    One of the biggest problems ive had with these kinds of devices is the latency


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I wish i could capture an hdmi device in a window and play it from there


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I had hoped that this would have a negligible latency


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Unfortunately the latency is high enough that action games arent able to be played directly from obs


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The video from the capture device was almost 0


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The latency is small enough that turn based rpgs are playable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It confirmed that the capture stream was around 5 frames behind
