Magewell USB Capture HDMI Gen2 - 🎥 Ultimate USB 3.0 HD Video Capture Dongle Model 32060 Review

It was good. The supplied USB male-male cable was defective and had to be replaced with a new one. Also, the device gets very hot during use. We'll try to mitigate this by testing it with FLIR and putting the heatsink on the hotspots.

I was looking for a device that would allow me to operate my GoPro Hero4 Silver like a normal camcorder with OBS (Open Broadcaster Software - [.]). GoPro instantly became a video source with no setup or driver installation required on my MacBook Pro. OBS saw it with no problems. I'm glad I bought two of these, I have a DSLR that is also commissioned and Magewell seems to be just what the doctor ordered. It's nice and compact, which helps with the portable studio I'm building. It does get a bit…

The best thing about this product is that it works without any fuss. You connect the camera via an HDMI port and a USB cable and you have a very high quality webcam. With good lighting, your zooms/hangouts/skypes will look like you're a model in the studio. With more and more business transacted through video, it's like dressing up for success. All video conferencing software and OBS will recognize your camera perfectly. On the downside, as others have pointed out, the metal body gets so hot…

My YouTube viewers often ask how they can use their camcorder as a webcam. Most camcorders do not support this feature through their USB connections, so an additional device is required. The Magewell XI100DUSB HDMI device seems like the best way to do this at the lowest cost. In fact, the device works so well that no drivers are needed on a Mac or PC - it just shows up in any app looking for a webcam. In this video I test it with Skype, Google Hangouts on Air and Quicktime Capture. Each of…

Magewell USB Capture HDMI Gen2 is good hardware. Take any device that exports HDMI and turn it into a webcam via USB. The picture quality is excellent - I keep getting compliments on the video quality. The setup utility is pretty easy to use. I originally gave this item 1 star. Why? Out of the box it didn't work on modern Linux. The configuration utility actually works on Linux, but works with Wine. More importantly, the device didn't transfer video over USB 3 on Linux. While USBv2 worked, its…

In our house of worship we installed Wirecast streaming on iMac (2.7GHz, Quad-Core i5, NVIDIA Geforce 640M, 512MB GDDR5), two Blackmagic Design UltraStudio Units Mini recorder connecting PTZOptics Gen2 20X-SDI (via HDMI) and Canon HD camera (via HDMI). I purchased this USB 3.0 HDMI video capture dongle from Magewell to add a ProPresenter HDMI output (primary top display) to an iMac via a USB3 port. I had no trouble connecting the device to the Wirecast software, but as soon as I started…

I started the Capture Dongle right out of the box. A few days later I was live streaming a 4 day event and streamed over 40 hours in that span. The device has excellent plug and play capabilities. I found and downloaded the driver because the sound wasn't working on my computer's USB 3.0 inputs, but that didn't solve the problem. The device will become VERY HOT in a moment. Of course, when it gets hot, it slows down. The inputs also seem a little loose, and if I moved the device during use, it…

I bought this to use my GoPro Hero 7 Black and/or Canon DSLR as a webcam and also to record videos that I am editing and publish. I teach online for some courses. The device does exactly what it promises and delivers excellent image quality. However, I use an external microphone (Yeti Nano) instead of the built in microphone in my DSLR or GoPro and there is a significant delay between audio and video capture. On my Canon 5D Mark III DSLR the delay is about 0.5 seconds, but on the GoPro Hero 7…

After installing a utility that would allow the device to be monitored and updated, I tried various applications with this one to try and get it working. It was recognized and responded by the USB drivers and utility, so the hardware appeared to be working. But everything I tried to record video only worked for a few seconds and then just shut down. Sometimes restarting the recording application would allow me to try again, but usually I had to physically unplug it from the USB bus and plug it…

I bought this so I can use my GoPro Hero 7 Black and/or Canon DSLR camera as a webcam and record videos to edit and post for some of the courses I teach online. The device does exactly what it promises and delivers excellent image quality. However, I use an external microphone (Yeti Nano) instead of the built in my DSLR or GoPro and there is a significant delay between audio and video capture. On my Canon 5D Mark III DSLR the lag is around 0.5 seconds, but on the GoPro Hero 7 Black the lag is…

Well designed, well made and works great! This is what you need for those of you looking for a plug and play HDMI video and audio capture device (running on Windows 8.1x64Pro). It is very small and works without special drivers or software. I use it with the Livestream Studio software and it works without any problems! +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Rating update May 22, 2017: I am changing my rating of this product from 5 Start using 3…
