This is not something I know a lot about but my 7 yr old has started getting into livestreaming... And by that I mean he wants to emulate the couple of minecraft youtubers that we deem "safe", but because of privacy concerns, he just streams on facebook to half a dozen family members who pretend they're watching and send him a couple of messages of encouragement.
I've been using OBS, and plugging the PS4 into an elgato camlink 4k. It sort of does the job, but I have to turn the settings on the stream down to 1080 30fps to get a decent frame rate. If I buy a proper capture card such as an Elgato HD60 do I actually gain any quality/framerate ? Are they essentially the same thing? I've been googling and I don't really get what the difference is. Is there some processing going on in the HD60 that a camlink doesnt do?
