    Perfect As A PS4 Game Capture Card!!

    Perfect As A PS4 Game Capture Card!!
    Disclaimer: Rig = Core i7-6770, 2800MHz DDR4 RAM and 12up BandwidthLink to Gameplay Example Down BelowFinally gave in and bought the Elgato Cam Link to use as a gaming capture card after some hesitation (I'm frugal). So many other capture cards were half the price of Elgato's HD60, HD60S and Cam Link, but all claimed to do the same thing. After doing extensive research, I settled on this device. Multiple tech gurus pointed out flaws with all the devices (including Elgato's) but nevertheless I honestly still reached a point where I was tired of hearing the phrase "Elgato is the best" at the end of every video.Since this is my first "capture card", I can't make a comparative statement, but what I will say is: The Elgato Cam Link exceeded my expectations and does everything I bought it for. Records gameplay and game audio flawlessly. For those who want to record your voice alongside the gameplay, there's obviously no Mic-in on the Cam Link, but I believe the Elgato software allows you to record an alternate audio input device. Since so many people are switching to USB mics (or XLR to USB preamps) anyway, it comes in handy for someone like myself who has no need for a 3.5mm-in slot.I don't use a camera so I can't speak on using the Cam Link for its intended function. I only use it as a gameplay capture card. Just download the free Elgato software, plug the PS4 HDMI into the Cam Link, then plug Cam Link to a PC's USB 3.xx slot. Record game footage in 1080p60 at the click of a button. There's zero video lag if you use their software's preview function as your display, and it is also a perfect pass-through of the incoming resolution. I select "Enter Full Screen" (see photo) then "Hide Sidebar" and I don't even notice a difference from having my console plugged directly into the TV.If you're like me and prefer NOT to save your captures locally, go to settings (see photo) and disable "Enable Flashback Recording". I think this will free up your SSD/HDD(?) from any work. You can stream directly to Twitch, YouTube & others (see photo) with the Elgato software. I use YouTube as free cloud storage for my personal gameplay videos (shhh don't tell Google or else they'll start charging) and this device made it easy to do so in the best quality.My two complaints about this device (which have now both been fixed) were 1: The gameplay audio channels being reversed. 2: Audio lag.------------------------Edit 01/16/18After contacting elgato, I was instructed to do a firmware update which fixed the L/R audio swap. Hold "ctrl" while clicking the settings wheel in the "Device" section. Go to "Advanced" tab and click "Update Firmware".To nullify audio lag: Listen directly to the recording device instead of computer's playback device. Right click the volume mixer in your Windows OS taskbar. Navigate to “Recording Devices” / “Digital Audio Interface 2- Cam Link”/Properties/ “Listen” Tab (see photo). Check the box next to “Listen to this device”. Select device you prefer to route to from drop-down menu. You should now hear lag-free game audio (pass-through).Now mute the preview screen sound (the laggy audio) by clicking the speaker square BELOW the display screen in the Elgato software. (NOTE: Do not mute the “Game Audio” volume wheel on the RIGHT SIDE of the display window unless you want no game audio recorded.)------------------------All in all, Elgato lived up to the hype and if they release a 4K version of the Cam Link I will most likely be buying it. I'd imagine it would be much bulkier and require an external power source though.As for the CamLink Gameplay Capture Quality: Keep in mind my capture was streamed directly to YouTube. They slightly degrade the quality of uploads, whereas I've never had that issue with Twitch. It still looks like superior quality though.

    5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING. Nothing comparable. Download, plug and play. Make sure you have the hardware you need.
    Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2018
    I purchased this recently because I figured if I already have a twitch account, love PC gaming, and own a Panasonic G7, this was the next logical step. "The Best" webcams reviewed are usually the C920+ series and upwards by logitech for completely plug and play use. But I found using a neewer magic arm (11" - very strong!) and a mini hdmi to hdmi cable, and also a dc coupler battery for my g7, the cost was almost the same. If you have a compatible dslr or mirrorless camera, there is nothing else that is comparable out there. The quality is just so cinematic and beautiful.

    To get the creamy background depth of field and still have the lens be wide enough to fit my face and shoulders, I used the magic arm clamp to clip to the back of the monitor stand (I have the AOC 35" 120hz ultrawide, there's a handle on the stand that is heavy duty metal which is acting perfectly as a clamp/tripod mount for the arm), together with a c-mount "security camera" lens + adapter from amazon which I think I payed 25 bucks for. It's a 25mm manual focus lens and it just far enough away and wide enough to be the perfect webcam lense. I especially like how sharp the center focus is, and how specific the focal length is, so that once you have it focused to your face, you only have a few inches each way before you start to blur out. I like that because it makes the shot look cinematic without the background or foreground being too busy. Over all, the effect is stunning and I plan to create a nicer twitch overlay and continue gaming using it.

    The cam link itself is so easy to use, and I cannot stress enough that if you already have a camera that's compatible, you really cannot do better than this device over any other webcam. Just make sure you buy the right accessories and that your lens is wide enough!

    Stop by my twitch, I might be streaming, who knows, or If you want to check out an example recorded video to see how it looks in action (OBS streaming at the highest bitrate, 2560x1440 scaled down to 1080p 60fps, with the camera/cam link set for 1080p 30fps), my user name on twitch is JobinPlays.

    Cheers!
