I live this card!!! It's better in fine detail in 1080p than the Elgato HD60 and the price and just literally everything!

The only caviat is that if you want to use your camera as a capture device you'll have to download their software, as soon as you have and made two clicks on your mouse it just works!!!!

No need to look at the software again if you're using OBS etc.

Excellent card, better than elagsto's offering and far more functionality than CamLink!!

By far the right choice in every respect!

Absolutely awesome card! Better than my roommates Elgato

So, the Live Gamer HD 2 is an amazing card!
Ive had zero lag whatsoever, and I've had Xbox one, switch, and other stations connected to it and all my streams have been 60fps with zero loss in frames.
I highly recommend using OBS or streamlabs, do not bother with RECentral. Also make sure you watch a YouTube video to get the audio to work properly.
It's very easy to install and easy to use.
BUT, I have noticed one pain in the butt; when I shut down my pc with a console plugged into the card, the video does not appear after I reboot my pc. Luckily I found a fix: make sure you unplug the consoles HDMI before turning your pc back on. After you've loaded up, then plug the HDMI back in and all is well.
For overall quality and price, this is better than my roommates Elgato SD60 USB capture card, hands down!!!
If you want to save some money and don't mind plugging and unplugging your HDMI each boot up, then this is your card!
Buy it!....... Seriously, DO IT!

It is touchy little thing.

It is no passthrough. You can turn HDCP bypass on, it then refuses to record, keep that in mind. However, it works, and has low if no latency. However, the software it comes with, is not the best, I would highly recommend not getting it and just using OBS studios even if you mean to local record, trust me, it works better and is cleaner then R4 the AverMedia wants you to use.

The next issue I ran into is, audio recording. For the first many months I had the card, I could not record HDMI audio; I HAD to use line-in. HDMI was always busy being used by something else. My PC crashed at some many months later (unrelated), and the issue has fixed itself... Sort of. Now I can record HDMI audio but not line-in. Line-in is being used by something. I don't know why. Still, I record from HDMI audio out from my PS4, PS3, PS2, Switch, Wii-U, Wii, soon I am not going to try and fix this in case I break HDMI Audio. Just be warned it is not as simply as plug in play if you get unlikely like me.

Es la mejor compra que he hecho en Amazon

Me encanto, porque lo compre a $3,813.70 en descuento y ahora esta mu cho mas barato que eso!!!!

Compralo, llevo como 7 meses con ella y la he usado para grabar mis juegos y mis sesiones de trabajo como programador, es lo mejor que hay.

Graba a 1920x1080 (1080p) a 60 FPS que es loq ue la gente usa mas seguido en 2019.

La calidad es grandiosa con OBS (Open Broadcaster Software), es el software con el que grabo mis videos y esta genial.

No graba a 4K, pero no me importa. Tengo un Nintendo Switch con el que grabo Zelda Breath of the Wild y me encanta, no se que mas decir, compralo.

Love it for streaming

I bought this because it is what sodapoppin uses, and it works great. I love that it is pug n play into the PCIE. There is a a couple ms delay if you are wanting to play using the monitor and program; but if you use the HDMI by-pass to a TV or second monitor then there is ZERO delay. Not a fan of the AVermedia software, I just use OBS for streaming.

Great card if you get past some software bumps

Great capture card once you can get it working. I came from a razor ripsaw and got this to reduce cables and desk clutter once my rispaw died.
I had a few issues with getting sound to work, and had to remove and reinstall the card to get sound at all. Once I got sound it was playing through my speakers at all times even if I was not using a program to capture gameplay. But once I turned it down in windows it was great. Just issues with user friendliness. I don’t think it’s an actual issue with the card. Only hardware related issue is sometimes you get an audio delay building up over time. By the end of a 3 hour stream my audio delay could be as much as a full second.

Pros : clear crisp image, no latency, easy to install.
Cons : software/adjusting settings is not user friendly. Sometimes you get audio delay over time.

Overall: totally recommend buying this card.

I'd give it 4.5 stars

It doesn't deserve a full 5 stars because of one minor annoyance. When plugging in my Xbox One X to the HDMI input of the card, the HDMI output image quality was fine, except it was darker than it should be. The feed in OBS and AVerMedia RECentral was clean and not darken. I had to use a spare HDMI splitter to remediate this problem.
Xbox to Splitter, Splitter to 1. Screen, 2. HDMI input of Capture card.
I wish I didn't have to do that...but at least it works well this way.

Works well with Nintendo Switch also.

I needed to resolve an issue I was having with a HDMI -> USB capture device.

I installed this card, changed the input device in OBS and set the display on my Macbook Pro to a supported resolution and voila.

Very crisp video, quick installation and easy to use.
