You can now buy a capture card for $15/£11 - 1080p 30FPS

[MRORANGE]

You can now buy a capture card for $15/£10 or even less., this blows my mind, I was watching this video and decided to take the plunge and I'm actually impressed.




I picked up one, being super wary - but at £11 it was worth a punt, I needed it for meetings with my Fuji camera and was interested to see how it performs and boy it's really good.

It's just amazing how streaming has bought the price of these cards down so much., I ended up using OBS to play Mario Odessa and it was very playable.

Man, we've come so far.

 

[bakalhau]

Well I guess the 180p resolution fits the price tag!

 

[EssBeeVee]

idk if 180p is good unless its 19200 x 180

 

[zombiejames]

180p? Finally, I can capture my GBA.

 

[Deleted member 10726]

Wow 180p would be perfect for watching these recording on my GBA.

 

[neoak]

180p?

 

[Citizencope]

Not a lot of P's

 

[ryushe]

So... no link?

 

[Kinggroin]

You meant 1080p. But it's still funny, and a lot of people are gonna make the joke.

 

[Deleted member 135]

Do these strip/bypass HDCP?

 

[Flandy]

Would be good enough to capture that battlefield 1 glitch on PS4 where it lowers the resolution to 90p at least

 

[Satonaka]

Who needs 8K when you can have 180p

Edit: in case anyone is actually confused the card streams at 1080p and it's the first hit on Amazon

[NateDrake]

Can almost hit XBCDE undocked native resolution of 376p with that device. Impressive.

 

[RockmanBN]

That's alot of p right there

 

[Lukar]

Given the price, I was expecting the 180p to not be a typo.

 

[Transistor]

That's all the P's I need

 

[WhiteNovember]

Tz... 1000 jokes about the 180p, but none about Mario's adventure in the ukraine

 

[KhandoleezzaRice]

That's neat, I've always been interested in one but the price has always pushed me away. The thread is going to be filled with drive by jokes about 180p though lol.

 

[AlexBasch]

All 180 of them.

According to the video it's available at multiple retailers (eBay, Amazon, AliExpress). I can't find anyone selling it for as cheap as $15 though, most seem to hover around the $50 range. If you click the video there are some affiliate links available, or if you go to Amazon and just search for "Capture Card" it's somewhere on the first page.

That is what I have ready myself.

I bought one of these, or something similar to it , the other day off of ebay. It is supposed to arrive this weekend. This quarantine got me thinking about doing a thing on the Arkham games and I need it to record some stuff off the Arkham Knight that the PS4 blocks from recording itself. So hopefully recording in small bursts will get me what I need.

When you say you have played Mario Odyssey with it, do you mean you used it while streaming, or you put it on OBS and where playing with your PC monitor ?

I bought an Avermedia and i regret it a lot because it has a LOT of input lag. I was wanting to get into Speedrunning but unfortunately i would have to play on the TV while streaming on the PC.

Ideally i would like it if this one had such a low input lag that i could connect the switch to the capture card and then play on the OBS window

Blame OP

he messed up twice xD

but its 1080p/30fps. all the amazon links/ebay says 30

 

[Sixfortyfive]

USB 2.0 capture cards are inherently trash, but a $15 price point makes a strong argument for some use cases.

It's advisable to play off the TV via a splitter or passthrough no matter what capture device you're using.

Though, if you *have* to play off the capture feed for some reason, avoid any capture device that is either USB 2.0 or has built-in hardware encoding. Those are the devices that tend to lag the most.

I assume there's a decent amount of latency? I am bad at working with delays in OBS

 

[Borman]

Actually the latency is quite low all things considered. But it is only 1080p30

I actually just finished watching that video review, which is pretty decent. He clocks this card's latency at about 48ms, which is pretty solid for a USB 2.0 device.

Definitely looks like an appealing entry level capture device.

Not into streaming but would like something for screenshots of older console games on PS2 and older hardware. I guess this could be a cheap way to do that.

On the PS4 you have to activate HDCP from the system settings. On the PS3 it's on all the time.

It's HDMI only. You'd need a converter or different capture device.
