Mirabox USB3.0 4K HDMI Video Capture Card, 1080P 60FPS HD Game Capture Device Cam Link with HDMI Passthrough Work with DSLR Xbox PS4 Switch for OBS Twitch Game Live Streaming and Recording

I use OBS to create broadcasts, live and recordings, were the speaker (or me) talk about something technical. This often includes slides and demos where the presenters laptop, or a physical unit like a Raspberry Pi is used to illustrate and demonstrate the point of the talk.Without this unit, you end up using a camera to film a canvas - the result is that the audience and viewers barely can see what's happening. It's easy to get out of focus, and to get both the presenter, demo and slides into focus.With this, the presenter gets full access with NO change to the presentation format. No software needs to be installed - all you need to do is plug their HDMI out into this unit, and then plug the output into the projector, TV or whatever is used. You then plug the USB into the computer running OSB - and it shows up as a video source - clear as a day. You can capture any device that outputs HDMI this way - and if there would be anything I could complain about it's that there's only one input channel. Not a real bit problem.The only odd thing is that the status LED on this unit keeps flashing. It works fine but the moment there's a signal it starts the blinking game. Since nobody sees it, no worries - but it would have been nice to know what that blinking did, vs. a fixed/steady signal (that I never see).Big pro here is that you do not need additional power input. One less cable to drag around. And it could not be simpler to use.

As a person who loves to play video games to relax and forget about reality, I decided to record my games and do a little live streaming. When I opened the box, my first impression, nice color scheme, gray with red trim. It was compact, light weight, firm and of good quality.The box had a USB cable cord and warranty card too. I searched for detailed instructions, because this is my first time, but there were none to be found. I read the warranty card and it said to watch a video for setup and if there are further questions call Amazon.The set up went fine as a first timer. The HD Video Capture works as described. The recording inside was clear and outside it picked up cars driving by. The images show good on my laptop and tv screen. Audio was good and there was minimum lag time. No frames were dropped during streaming.I was satisfied with my purchase and the performance overall was good. I will definitely get my money's worth.

It was very easy to set up and run!

Not really a bother since I'm doing commentaries, i.e. don't need game audio, but it is disappointing I cant just upload gameplays

I tested this little capture card out with my Switch and my PS5 with some mixed results.The footage recorded fine and looks fine as long as you aren't looking for 4k. By 4k, I am assuming they must mean it will pass through 4k if you are using a 4k source and it is going to 4k display. Using my M1 Mac and an older Macbook, I was not able to get it to record at 4k.That makes this a bit of a limited use case card. If you only need 1080p capture, then you're good to go with this--so, it will be a great cheap option for the Switch or a previous gen console--not so much with the PS5 of Series X.All in all, it is a simple to use device that worked. It just doesn't deliver on the 4k.

I bought this to stream games off of my Switch and it honestly works really well! Setup was originally a little tricky but now it works like a dream! People are honestly shocked when I tell them I stream with a $50 capture card, you really can't tell by the stream quality! It will occasionally freeze up while running OBS but I'm pretty sure it's a problem with Streamlabs more than this.

I bought this only because I wanted to view my xbox one x in 4k while I was streaming to twitch, but no luck. Will either return or give to someone that wants a 1080p out display. Very misleading product name. Company continues to ask that I change my review to 5 stars by offering a credit of up to 45 dollars. Sorry but not going to change it because it's not a true product description.

Amazing product and works perfectly does the job indistinguishable from the high end capture cards itS perfect
