I am giving you a HUGE thank you, I have been sat here for the last 2 hours wondering if i've bought the wrong HDMI splitter then I find this video and you have the exact same one as me, and watching your tutorial made me realise I put the wrong cable in the Input and Output for my Elgato Card. So thank you very much, you actually saved me!
I do like it when people find my video and helps them, it makes it so worthwhile doing it. So thank you for watching! 😊And thank you for your kind words.
@@gods_andmonsters Thanks 1st for quick reply & do you know of a way to bypass this, if it’s constantly is recording all of video to onboard HD? Would it then need to be uploaded to RUclips or other platform? If so, can I just hook up an external like 4TB Hybrid SSD? Not as fast as a SSD but much faster than a traditional for a fraction of the cost. Appreciate it 👊
@@LifeHacksAndMoneyStacks I have not used the Elgato for some time but I'm pretty sure that its software settings there is the option as to where you wish to store gameplay.
I've got a HDMI *switch* that takes multiple HDMI sources and outputs them to one. This doesn't bypass the HDCP protection like a *splitter* does. That's an important difference that caused me a bit of confusion. Also make sure that your chosen splitter actually does bypass HDCP protection, not all of them do. Just a note to anyone in the comments.
@@ScarecrowsSpookyGameplays I didn't need to record anything. I proved that it works and it worked for me. Just because I didn't hit the record button is a minor detail.
I connect mine different , I have a 3 way HDMI 3d splitter, HDMI cable from ps3 to input of splitter, then output one of splitter HDMI cable to TV , then second output of splitter HDMI cable to USB capture card , from capture card to laptop, works perfect , my capture card is one in one out , no splitter in capture card
From my my understanding of it - yes. And so does the capture card. I had more problems with my capture card because it wasn't recording audio at first but that was because I hadn't set my laptop up with permission to share audio. It took me a couple of weeks to find a video on what the problem was. This is prior to buying the splitter though.
In all honesty, I don't know. I'd imagine that an Elgato is supported by an Imac or Dell. As for the HDMI splitter, I took a gamble and it paid OFF. That's about as much help as can offer. Sorry. Thank you for looking at my video though. By the way, this still works for me and no issues.
i have the same splitter and manage to get video on the elgato software and also to OBS but i get no sound, anyone else had that issue? did you solve it?
Does the audio have any delay, static or crackling sound to it? I've got the HD60 X which utilizes the same 4k Capture software from Elgato, but audio seems to be an issue. Although my video is perfectly fine.
What splitter did you use? The same as in the video? I have an HD60 X too and have been trying to get it working. If you can share how you did it and how to fix audio issue that would be great.
i havint seen or played on a ps3 in 15 years your setup is almost like mine i was thinking about showing how i live stream and rec gameplay should i tho 😃
Mine wont send a signal from the Elgato to either TV or Laptop.. splitter seems to work fine, Elgato knows it has power, and tv reacts...but no picture and goes back to acting like there is othing plugged into TV... just goes to blue screen.. Ans also nothing shows up on PC.. think My elgato is dodgy.
It's difficult to help others when I can't see their setup. Try unplugging and starting again. I got really lucky with this otherwise I would have given up trying. Best of luck.
@@gods_andmonsters Thank you man, about to try again.. I went and looked at the place I ordered my splitter from.. it was not HDCP bypass, so assuming thats the problem. Ordered another and back here to make sure I'm settting it up like this again. Much appreciate your video.
@@gods_andmonsters Thanks so much mate !!!, it was the Splitter, it's working !!! Been putting it off for over a decade, time to start remaking those old tutorials so people can actually see them properly !!
First of all takes some steps back. Did you have a black screen before you introduced the splitter? If not, go over the setup again and see IF you have gone wrong. Also, just check the various HDMI I ports in your TV settings. Check each one to see if a signal comes through. That's the best I can without seeing your setup. Best of luck.
No i didn't I have one of my HDMI Cables connected from my Monitor to one of the outputs of the splitter, the 2nd one connected from my PS3 console to the input of my Splitter I'm using an OREI HHDMI splitter btw@@gods_andmonsters
@@dragozillasaur813 I wish I could help you further but I'm afraid I am unable to offer anything further based on your description. Maybe, (just try it) start again. You MAY HAVE mistepped somewhere?? Good luck. 😊
@@dragozillasaur813 Maybe, it's the splitter itself not allowing the signal to pass through. I've just checked and the HDMI splitter I am using in the video is still available on Amazon. Is it an option to purchase that?
Maybe something in the settings to your capture card? Unfortunately it's hard to diagnose every problem that somebody has. I thank you for looking at my video though. Good luck!
Hi ya.. great video! what was the other thing you had (not the splitter) is that a capture card? do I definitely need that. My child wants to start recording his games and I’m lost. Is there a cheaper one incase in doesn’t work out lol 😂
The device itself doesn't. I use the Elgato HD 60 S. I plug in a USB headset into my laptop and through the Elgato software I record my voice. I hope this helps.
In all honesty I haven't recorded much when using this. I'm still playing and record games from PS4 and PS5. I plan to record Silent Hill Downpour which I have for PS3.
@@Herozonex200 I only thing I can suggest is do a little research, look at the reviews of what other have bought. Make sure though it can bypass the HDCP.
I don't know but I think it would. OBS is just another piece of software to capture gameplay. I have used OBS alongside my Elgato capture card and it works great. As long as everything is linked up correctly with the HDMI splitter, it should work.
@@yAsH-zt9oj How did you have it setup for recording ps3 gameplay off OBS? did you need the capure card or only the splitter since OBS is the capture software? PLEASE let me know your setup!! :)
@@Serbbrah I had to use both to finally get it to work, I did exactly like it's mentioned in the video. Also it's better if you use a secondary monitor too because sometimes when you boot it for the first time the display doesn't show up but when you connect it to a monitor like in the video it works well, you can always disconnect the monitor after.

Check all connections and also check your HDMI ports on your TV. I can't sure bbuut it could a mi's-connection somewhere.
@@gods_andmonsters I will have to retry today, I’m trying to record jailbroken content!!!!
@@hexticdev I got really lucky with this working first time round.
I tried this exact splitter and it didn’t work
Which capture card is this? Does it have to utilize HDD space on your laptop or can it directly be uploaded to RUclips or such bypassing local HD?
The capture card is the Elgato HD60 S+. Yes it does use the laptops HDD.

When does the actual recording come into play...?
@@ScarecrowsSpookyGameplays By using the Elgato capture card, which is connected to the PS3.
@@gods_andmonsters, you didn't record anything. You only displayed it on your pc. That's not the same as recording.

Hello,
Does this splitter needs to extract audio? Or the capture card will do that for me? Thank you

Also buddy, will this work with an imac or a Dell laptop.

Try checking all connections or starting from scratch? I understand people's frustration when it doesn't work right away.
whats the name of the hdmi splitter because the one that ive bought does not work!
The multibao HDMI Splitter. It's in the video and I show it on the Amazon website. 😁

My chromebook os isn't compatible with the elgato software 😢
That's a shame. I had to upgrade my laptop to be able to run and the Elgato properly. Don't give up though.
I looked up the capture card and it’s so expensive
Anywhere from £60 to £100!
