Review on HornetTek HDMI USB 3.0 Video Capture Device - Full HD 1080P ๐ŸŽฎ 60FPS USB Video & Audio Grabber for Xbox PS4 - Black (Zoom Compatible) by Dustin Lannan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great with Linux and OBS! Small annoyance with the default resolution.

So far so good! This works as expected for capturing 1080p screencasts from another computer with OBS, or capturing on the same screen (mostly seen as looping and screen mirroring). My only complaint is minor and it seems that the default/preferred resolution is low, meaning I can't record the entire boot process as smoothly as I'd like. But that's pretty minimal, and for regular desktop recording, the 1920ร—1080 selection works just fine. Oh, and it works great with Linux for both output and capture.

Pros
  • *****The latest version of VLC Player does not support video recording. Please use an older version of VLC Player (version 2.2.6) to record videos with VLC.***THIS DEVICE DOES NOT RECORD HDCP COPYRIGHT CONTENT. FOR PS4 PLEASE DISABLE HDCP IN SETTINGS*** Record video and audio from HDMI sources such as video display or camera sources
Cons
  • Slightly torn
