AVerMedia Live Gamer HD 2 - PCIe Internal Game Capture Card, HDMI and 3.5 mm, PassThrough, Ultra Low Latency,1080p60 Uncompressed Streaming Technology for PS4, Xbox, Switch Live Gamer - (GC570)

Easily installable drivers, easy to understand how to pull it up in ReCentral4 or in OBS. I do have one small issue though that is nothing bad. When my PC restarts, the blue LED on the side turns on and blinks until windows boots. You can turn the LED off in ReCentral4, but it turns on at pc restart. Does not work with Linux, which makes me a little sad, but I mainly use Linux for messing around in. The light on the device will continue to blink when on Linux so it is a bit annoying

Yes, it works for video capture. I had to replace my 15 year old AVerMedia capture card because it doesn't work with windows 10/11, and my windows 7 machine died. The older software, super simple to use and didn't take up half the screen with menus and buttons and everything else. This horrible software, 1/4 the left screen is menus and the bottom 1/4 of the screen is 2 buttons. I also at least once a week have to unplug the source cable and plug it back in. Didn't have to do that with my older capture card.

Meh!! No better than 20 dollar external capture.

I installed the card relatively easy but it simply did not work. Moment I inserted it, I could no longer boot into windows as stream pc monitor was not registering any signal. I tried plugging into in/out hdmi on the card itself, then back to hdmi of my tower, nope, not a peep ... Returning it... BTW: I have gaming G-Sync 1440p 165hz monitor, and was hoping to get to stream into 1080p60, but apparently I could not test it since it did not work... Looks like for my setup I need working capture card first, then OBS on both machines so I can tell gaming PC to project into 1080p60 (not stream) and then send that projected signal into capture card so there is no issues w my gaming monitor and refresh rates...

On Windows this device works as intended. On Linux, The device constantly resets, and has no HDMI audio.

Was a good capture card.. Until when I upgraded to Windows 11 24H2, my capture card started flickering, I went on the site to see if there's any fixes, and it says this. Guess it's obsolete e-waste now. What a shame, paid good money for this too.. Wish I knew how old it was before I bought it back in 2023.

Pra mim é a melhor placa 1080x60 que você pode conseguir, qualidade excelente, delay 0 e preço "justo" para o padrão BR

I have been looking for a capture card for a while to live stream to YouTube, this worked perfectly for what I wanted. I streamed for over 4 hours and I didn't have any problems, the metal shroud keeping the card covers seems to work well as a heat sink. Just make sure your computer has good air flow and you should be good. I used StreamLabs and never touched the AVerMedia software, so I won't be commenting on how well that performs. The "Live Gamer HD 2" is the PCIe capture card, plugged in really easy. No drivers / updates required. Literally worked right out of the box so it was just plug 'n play. The HDMI pass through worked wonders, I couldn't actually feel any input lag which was nice as you do get a bit of an input delay when passing through a capture card. Huge plus on that front. Solid 1080p 60fps image quality from the nintendo switch, I had no comments during the live stream about any problems with the image quality and I watched some of the footage back and it does appear that the card DOESN'T compress the picture quality which is a good thing. You don't lose any detail in the image but does put more stress on your hardware to process it. This leads me onto my next point, people gave this 1 star because they don't know what to do or don't know how these devices work. You DO need a high end computer to live stream a decent bitrate - high resolution image. You can't expect a lower end desktop to encode the image for a live stream without problems. The best thing you can do is drop the bitrate in your streaming software until you get a smooth image, this does mean you will be sacrificing image quality the lower the bit rate though. I have attached an image of the live stream, this was recorded at 1080 - 60 fps - 6500 bitrate and this is AFTER YouTube ran it through processing and the image quality is still fantastic.

Habe nebenbei die Elgato HD60 (USB), die Avermedia HD1 und noch bissel Terratec SD-Kleinkram. Von Elgato war ich bissel enttäuscht, da die HD60 leider recht stark komprimiert, sieht man sehr gut bei schnellen Szenen in Doom 2 (Map mit Rot/blauen Pixeln, hier extremer Matsch). Aber auch super beim Gras (direkt der Start) bei Shadow Warrior 2. Auch im 720p Modus ist starke Kompression angesagt, wer also 720p streamt/recordet, sollte die Karte in 1080p lassen und per Software downsamplen. Direkt in der Elgato-Software war die Quali etwas besser als im OBS, wieso auch immer... Ebenfalls hat Win10 das Problem, immer auf 59,94fps zu forcen anstatt glatte 60Hz (Win 7 kein Problem), was der Elgato ebenfalls nicht so mega gut schmeckt (ganz leicht ruckelig). Hauptproblem war dann aber die CPU-Last von 30-35% auf 1080p60, gerade in OBS. Das Delay war ebenfalls nicht toll (ca 350ms) __________________________________________________________ Die Live Gamer HD2 macht dagegen alles komplett richtig (CPU last 10-17%) Toll ist auch, dass man HDCP" deaktivieren kann (Software an, Haken raus, Software aus, OBS einschalten). Diese Option fehlt der HD1 leider, somit kann ich nicht direkt vom PC capturen, bzw. nur über Umwege. Ein Problem was alle Karten haben ist aber, dass sie niedrige oder "krumme" Auflösungen nicht wollen, dagegen hilft aber ein einfacher, günstiger Upscaler für 30-60€ ;-) __________________________________________________________ 2 Mankos, die mir aber kein Stern Abzug wert sind: - Das Bild ist etwas zu scharf, schärfer als bei der HD1, Desktopaufnahmen (Text) sollte man somit etwas smoothen nach der Aufnahme. - Kein Encoder onboard, das wäre noch toll gewesen und auch gerne 50,- Aufpreis wert. (Die HD1 hat's noch) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Was ich mir für die nächste Version wünsche, Wichtigkeit in absteigender Reihenfolge: - Freesync Support (ab 29Hz, zur Not LFC) - Support für 144Hz, besser gleich 240Hz (kann gerne intern auf 60 gesampled werden, Hauptsache es darf anliegen) - DP-Eingang - HDR Support (dann mit Freesync 2) (Für den ersten Punkt, würde ich die nagelneue HD2 sofort wieder gegen ne Neue eintauschen *lach*)

Mi ha stupito parecchio, funziona eccellentemente. Pochissimo Delay (quasi nullo). Ha anche un ingresso jack da 3,5mm per gestire tracce audio separate e l'illuminazione LED rossa aggiunge un tocco di classe.
