Review on Wiistar 1080P HDMI Game Capture Card - HDMI to USB 3.0 Type C Live Video Capture, Game Capture Recording, HDMI to USB 3.0 Adapter Grabber for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux by Alex Prince

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Darker image, artifacts and VERY heated.

This recorder is worth its price because it has a pass-through connection. On a Mac, it's automatically recognized as an external webcam and works with Zoom, Teams, FaceTime, OBS, and Quicktime. However, it heats up to very high temperatures during operation, the image streamed to the Mac is darker than the image streamed through other interfaces, and the image quality is lower, with some noticeable banding in the shadows. When it came to the pure acquisition, I was lucky with LEADNOVO, the results of which are shown in comparison. However, it lacks end-to-end transmission, which is important in some applications. (I kept one of the two Wiistars I bought for myself for an application where we need pass-through and returned the other.)
