This streaming setup has been a complete nightmare this weekend. I copped a capture card from Amazon on Friday, the Rybozen 4K Ultra HD ($40) and the picture worked, but I could not get my voice to work in game chat, or gameplay audio to work when streaming using Streamlabs (or recording). I've tried every tutorial on YouTube, searched endless amounts on this, and could not get the audio to work, just picture. I finally read that PS5 cannot accept USB inputs to stream and my Turtle Beach 600 Gen 2 is USB only. So I figured my headset and the capture card is giving me the issues, plus the capture card was cheap, and it has two 3.5mm jack outputs which was a bit confusing. So I went to Bestbuy copped an Elgato HD60X because its the most raved, talked about, legit capture card out, cost me $180. Plus it only has one 3.5mm jack output which made more sense to connect. Also copped the HyperX Cloud II Pro Wired 7.1 headset and a bunch of AUX cables.
Long story short, the Elgato did NOT work. AT ALL. I got no picture from it, just a constant error that it could not find the video. I tried everything, and nothing worked. No picture, no audio, nothing, $180 vaporware. There is 4K Utitly software for it, but only Windows, no Mac, (Im running a M1 MacBook). I decided to try the Rybozen again because at least the pictured worked. I used the Hyper X headset because its 3.5mm jack and I was curious on how they sounded vs. my Turtle Beaches and the HyperX worked, lol. The audio worked during a stream with no issue on the Rybozen.
Spend $300 on hardware, headset and cables and the only thing I needed was the headset. Jesus
Bruh, I don't know the first thing about streaming set-ups but it seemed like the first post was, "I have an incompatible headset for PS5... what to do?"... Second post, " a compatible headset was the solution..."
Return all that stuff you don't need and then.... Wooosah....
