So if you use a PS3 (not applicable to Xbox or PS4) in combination with this game capture card, make sure you have a TV or monitor with built-in speakers, if you want sound while gaming!!!Īnother small downside is that you can't edit that much in the software itself. There was no way to solve this, so I had to buy a monitor with built-in speakers. (but sound for recording in the software). Because you use the component port on the ps3, I could no longer connect my external speakers and therefore had no sound while playing. I used a monitor screen without built-in speakers and external speakers for sound from my ps3. If you forgot to record a beautiful moment, you can go back to the missed moment and simply record it! Note that recording + streaming downscales the resolution.įor the rest, you can edit the recorded videos in the program by cutting, renaming, and uploading directly to eg Youtube.Īnd which is also a big plus. You can record with live commentary and even stream at the same time. Now that everything is set up in connection and you can start recording. As a result, your image and sound will go to factory settings and you can adjust the PS3 settings. When starting up the PS3, press and hold the power button until you hear a 2nd beep. I use this game card for a PS3, because of this I had to put it on something else for image and sound (see quick You will also most likely need to adjust your console settings. This was the first time I was asked when opening the software. When you open the software you will have to change a few settings depending on which console you use. (The link to the download on the site is also on the quick start guide)Īs a result, it was ready for use within 10 to 15 minutes. The software is also very easy to download from the elgato website. You have connected everything correctly to 1,2,3, especially due to the quick start guide that is included in the box. When I started connecting it, I was surprised how easy it was. For this I had an HD PVR and it needed 3x as many cables.

I think it's a very nice plus that you need so few cables. I also found in the box a quick start guide, USB cable, HDMI cable, PS3 cable and a component cable. When I opened the box I was amazed at how small the elgato game capture card HD is. The box itself already looked very nice in terms of design. This allowed me to read and test everything calmly. I had it within 24 hours of my order thanks to the fast delivery from coolblue as always! And this on a Sunday. If required for PS3, TV or monitor with built-in speakers!! Few cables and capture cars itself is also small
