Reddit mentions of AVerMedia Live Gamer HD 2 Full HD 1080p 60 Record and Stream Multi-Card Support Low-Latency Pass-Through Real-Time Gameplay PCIe Ryzen Support (GC570)

If you are curious about getting a capture card, Amazon has both the the AVerMedia Gamer Live HD 2 and Portable 2 for $99 right now. Pretty good price for a 1080p60 card as the comparable El Gato and other such competitors usually run $150+.

I picked the Live HD 2 the other day and have been messing around with it. Quality looks sweet once I dialed in OBS with both streaming and recording. Plus, it's also an excuse to finally get my Ryzen 7 1700 to flex its muscles outside of gaming. Setup was pretty straightforward, but I am noticing some quirks as I try to get the audio to pass through to my headset instead of my current noisy headphone port to line in setup. I may even start recording more of my trash league X rank Rainmaker shenanigans as I always forget to use the built-in recorder in the heat of the moment.

Thing is the issue happens even when I'm just previewing using either software, so it's not like I'm trying to stream in that moment. Recording locally shows the same. Very frustrating. I ordered the AVerMedia Live Gamer HD 2 off Amazon to try it out later today. If it works as it says on the tin then the Elgato is going back and getting a scathing review on every outlet I can find.

Have you looked into a capture card? The Avermedia Live Gamer HD2 takes the strain of streaming from your cpu and puts it on it. And it’s $120 right now on Amazon. Here

I did not realize I failed to respond to this beyond that. I apologize for that.

In terms of capturing game footage, you need go for a capture card. I would personally recommend one that is PCIe-based if possible. Could be any of these (all are Amazon US listings, check your local country or elsewhere if applicable):

• https://www.amazon.com/Elgato-superior-technology-hardware-encoding/dp/B076ZQBN6R?th=1
  
• https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-Multi-Card-Low-Latency-Pass-Through-GC570/dp/B06XRF732W
  
  If you are on a laptop, these obviously won't work, so you are stuck with this.

  Then (assuming you have a webcam), in order to reconcile game footage with you and your friends playing, using a streaming software like OBS (or other variants like OBS Studio and Streamlabs OBS) means that you won't have to go back and do it in a video editing software like VEGAS Pro or Adobe Premiere, but it's good to have those to splice and export videos in the preferred format for places like YouTube.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06XRF732W/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1520942817&sr=8-9&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=pc+capture+card&dpPl=1&dpID=51Co-SLRLUL&ref=plSrch

I use OBS most of the time, Shadowplay is good too but will not work with Open GL games. Also if you are ready to invest some money i think full versioin of Bandi cam is worth it. You could also invest in a Capture card like the Live Gamer HD or the Live Gamer HD 2 I think they are both awesome depending on what your buget is and they can compress the video without the need of your processor x.264.

I would stay away from Elgato and look at AVerMedia:

https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-Multi-Card-Low-Latency-Pass-Through-GC570/dp/B06XRF732W

Should be out next week https://www.amazon.com/AVermedia-Technology-Multi-Card-Low-Latency-GC570/dp/B06XRF732W/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1491476051&sr=1-1&keywords=gc570

So you can start by using OBS https://obsproject.com/ to manage your sources. You can stream the sources to your server of choice using a guide on youtube. I can assist you later today on my discord if you'd like.

​

The sources can be organized within a "Scene", which can be changed on the fly with pre-defined hotkey combos you set.

​

An Elgato Stream Deck would indeed be a useful device to very quickly change to the scene you are looking for in an elegant way, and integrates into OBS.

​

You can then use either 2 capture cards to send the scenes from the first two pc(let's label them)

​

You have the Final Destination PC, (Webinar-PC), where you would send the sources from the Second PC(Software-PC) and the First (Presentation-PC.)

​

The capture cards will be located within the Webinar-PC and you would send the output display into those to cards.

​

Then within OBS, add two "Video Capture Device" sources and select each capture card.

​

If you are only doing 1080P, you only need 1080P Capture cards. Any higher and You'll need a set of 4k capture cards.

​

As for the cards themselves, you can use the Avermedia 4k card https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-GC573-Live-Gamer-4K/dp/B07DHSZC4K/ref=sr_1_5?crid=24SJC8MKYPOC5&keywords=avermedia+capture+card&qid=1558123394&s=gateway&sprefix=avermedia+ca%2Caps%2C145&sr=8-5

​

or the Avermedia Ultra 4K https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-GC573-Live-Gamer-4K/dp/B07DHV47HF/ref=sr_1_5?crid=24SJC8MKYPOC5&keywords=avermedia%2Bcapture%2Bcard&qid=1558123394&s=gateway&sprefix=avermedia%2Bca%2Caps%2C145&sr=8-5&th=1 if you don't have a free PCI-E card; though using these will need access to a USB 3.1 (Gen 1) Type-C port on the Webinar-PC

​

If you do not have that, you can use a https://www.amazon.com/Warmstor-Adapter-Converter-Support-Charging/dp/B073H1QVJZ/ref=sr_1_20?keywords=type+c+to+type+a+3.1&qid=1558123593&s=gateway&sr=8-20 converter.

​

You do need to be aware of the USB bandwidth in that case, however. 4k raw footage exceeds the data throughput of 3.1 gen 1, and requires USB 3.2 Gen 2 2x2 speeds(20Gbps) as it can get up to 14Gbps. Or firewire.

​

If you only need 1080P https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-Multi-Card-Low-Latency-Pass-Through-GC570/dp/B06XRF732W/ref=sr_1_3?crid=24SJC8MKYPOC5&keywords=avermedia%2Bcapture%2Bcard&qid=1558123758&s=gateway&sprefix=avermedia%2Bca%2Caps%2C145&sr=8-3&th=1

​

And USB https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-Multi-Card-Low-Latency-Pass-Through-GC570/dp/B00005141S/ref=sr_1_3?crid=24SJC8MKYPOC5&keywords=avermedia%2Bcapture%2Bcard&qid=1558123758&s=gateway&sprefix=avermedia%2Bca%2Caps%2C145&sr=8-3&th=1

​

As for your Camera, What kind of camera are we talking about? Webcam? DSLR? Mirrorless? Depending on the type depends on what you need.

Check eBay if you want to save a few bucks. Lots of people think they’ll be the next big thing, then give up when realizing how much competition there is.

You may also want to look at avermedia ones (personally I think they perform better than elgatos). The one I have is about 100 bucks at the moment: https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-Multi-Card-Low-Latency-Pass-Through-GC570/dp/B06XRF732W

I didn't know we were comparing certain bodyparts here, but okay...
This is the 3rd link on the image and it is NOT what you linked:
https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-Multi-Card-Low-Latency-Pass-Through-GC570/dp/B06XRF732W

Now, are you able to assist me with my issue or not?

Edit:
Now, I've scrolled quite far down on that amazon link and now see the image you are refering to, however, my search didn't point me in the direction of any requirements in either metadata info etc. neither was the information available at AverMedia's own website as far as I can see.
