Review on YOTOCAP YT-294: PCI-E 4K Video Capture Card with HDMI Output, Full HD πŸ“· 1080p 60p Recording & UVC Plug-and-Play Support - Ideal for OBS Studio Live Streaming by Farhad Cantu

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy plug-and-play for computers and accessories

Works great with OBS Studio 64-bit. Drivers are installed automatically via Windows 10, the card shows up as a camera in Device Manager. You can go to OBS Studio and set it as "Video Capture Device" and you're done. It really is a painless process. I use it to record videos from Oculus Rift. I can't use it as a recording facilitator, but what I was able to do was duplicate my displays on the source device, output that video over HDMI from the source and onto the YoCap card. I'm only recording and outputting from the monitor, not via HDMI, but I need that to display Echo VR. My source machine is definitely taking more resources to render another display, but this is the best workaround for minimal latency.

Pros
  • Hands-free mode
Cons
  • Annoying
