Here is what FIXED it for me!!! (This video did not help my specific issue, but I accidentally figured it out) *** Windows "Microphone Privacy" settings were turned OFF. *** When I enabled them for another app, my OBS started detecting/playing audio from my Switch!!! GREAT video by the way, even though your stuff didn't help me at first, I LEARNED SO MUCH!
OMG YOU JUST HELPED ME BIG TIME! OBS keeps on mysteriously changing my settings every now and then! I have been streaming for some time now and suddenly this problem happens! THANK YOU!
Hi Philminator, Thanks for the video! I have a question regarding 2:09. My audio has the slight crackling that you mentioned included in my recordings. Does this happen for you and were you able to fix it?
@@Philminator I have an Xbox 360 and I wanted to record it. It turns out I found that the audio monitoring must be set to "Monitor and Output" instead of "Monitor only." Would you mind explaining how muting the output disables external source audio EN-FREAKING-TIRELY!!! I spent hours looking for solutions yet I stumble across the opposite of what you told people to do which ended up working for me. Does muting the output have more to do with internal PC recordings or something?
WE HAVE THE SAME SET UP WITH THE SAME INTERFACE THANK U SO MUCH I WAS TRYNA TALK TO MY FRIEND IN DISCORD BUT MY DESKTOP AUDIO WAS PICKING UP THE GAME AND IT SOUNDED ALL DELAYED OR DOUBBLED WITH GAME AUDIO BUT NOW ITS GONE THANK U SO MUCH U GOT A LIKE AND A SUB
Thank you! After installing a new driver for my Scarlett Solo it stopped having sound in OBS. It turns out it changed the device name and I had to reselect it as shown at the very beginning of the video. Thanks!
Didn't work for me but what worked is changing the "audio monitor settings" setting (whatever you have enabled for the channel) back to something different and then again to the one you had before.
hey, so i use a hd60 pro and i have chat link pro hooked up to my controller but every time i hook my chat link up it turns off the capture cards audio in obs, and also my mic echos for everyone too with the chat link
Not working. Tried so many different things, Audio only works if I unplug the headset and chat link cable at which point it only plays though the monitor which sounds horrible.
Yeah this didn’t work for me. Here’s the solution that worked for me. SOLUTION: For all the console players, specifically those who play on Xbox, do this: - go to settings - go to Volume & Audio Output - go to Additional options - make sure ‘Mute speaker audio when headset attached’ is unchecked. By unchecking this option you will be able to get audio from your Xbox. This makes sense since the Elgato receives the audio via HDMI, however I owned previous capture cards that worked even when I had this checked. You’re welcome. It took me forever to find a solution online but this is what worked for me.
im so confused i did that and it still does not show for me, obs tells me that my elgato is inactive in the audio mixer. It used to be there too and just vanished and im so frustrated
HELP: ( My most recent video shows everything ) My elgato audio shows on the meter in obs and also has it’s own track but when I finish my recordings the audio is empty on the gameplay audio track
I followed this EXACTLY and it still doesn't show audio. My recording works, but as I record the bars that bounce to show audio is coming through do not exist (like, there is no color, they just stay grey as though they are off). I can't figure this out and I'm lost
I have an elgato 60x. I have tried everything to fix my audio. Unfortunately out of nowhere my console in game audio disappeared yesterday. I've restarted my computer, I've restarted my xbox. I've Uninstalled obs and reinstalled because I thought the new update was the cause. No fixes and I still have no console in game audio. Any advice??
@@whatiscrossfade23 I fixed it by resetting my audio settings on the Xbox. However I still can't get in game voice audio on my stream. Regardless of changes to the settings like speaker/headset audio change, and so forth
I don’t know if you’ll see this but I just recorded some footage and i could hear it through my headphones and it was showing the audio working but when I looked at the footage there wasn’t any gameplay audio coming out
that screen that you open at 1:45 for the properties - i do not have that many options. I can only see the Device section and nothing else, any reason why that might be? I have a macbook pro m2
I was streaming literally the other day, the next morning i go to stream and the game audio is not working. nothing was changed. When i pull my chat link cable out it works but i cant use my headset. Nothing was changed.

Unfortunately computers are complex, and at times issues of any kind can be a pain to figure out. There's nothing I can think of that it could be off the top of my head, without being there to see it for myself.
See what I mean? Computers are weird. Let me share a quick story with you about my new computer. It has bluetooth built into the motherboard. Sometimes, it vanishes when I'm in Windows, and a reboot, or full shutdown and restart does nothing. You know what makes it work each time 100%? Shut down PC, remove power plug from computer. Wait about 10 seconds. Plug the power cable back into the PC, start the PC, and boom, bluetooth is magically back.
I just posted a video about my audio issue, I've somewhat fixed the sudio problem but my elgato is only picking up the sound of voices in songs or characters dialogue and every now and then it will pick up the sound of my xbox scrolling through games. But it wont pick up music or in game sound effects I've tried everything so far but it only fixed the issue of not hearing people talking in game.
I literally tried everything but no audio or mic sound is working. I'm on PS5, Astro A40 using Elgato. I have chat link and it's setup correctly on Streamlabs OBS. Please help!
Here is what FIXED it for me!!!

Hi Philminator, Thanks for the video! I have a question regarding 2:09. My audio has the slight crackling that you mentioned included in my recordings. Does this happen for you and were you able to fix it?

Yeah, sadly over the computer like this, it's practically impossible for me to figure out what it could be.

I have no idea.
I tried everything on this video, as well as 4 other tutorials, and so far nothing has worked.

I followed this step by step but I still don't have any audio from my Elgato HD60 S. Been troubleshooting all day. Not sure what to do from here...
did you ever figure it out?
@@CYNDEREAPERMan, this was 3 months ago. I don't remember how I fixed it, but it is fixed now lol. 😅
@@DrSpaceCapeTV LMAO man I’m having the same issue right now glad you fixed it though
@@CYNDEREAPER Best of luck.
Thank you that really helped ❤

Very odd.
My elgato in my audio mixer is not moving at all
Do you still answer comments? My OBS won't capture my audio still, have you figured out more about it? Can it be because my PC doesn't have speakers?
Do you have an oulder version or the more recent version of obs?
@@DroidXYZ I tried both, but apparently it wasn't OBS, my PC just sucks 😅😂
@@Descaped damn, that sucks
What if this and nothing else worked?
I’m still not getting sound it’s not even moving
Same here. Ever figure it out?
Didn't work.. Used to work, it doesn't anymore after two months of not playing on my elgato whatever is the reason after five videos I'l getting tired
Ya it’s been frustrating for me quite often over the years. So many weird issues I have to this day
