So far so good.

I have had this for a number of years. It has been a real workhorse to convert my XA11 camera to a web cam used in Zoom meetings. It does run hot when connected to the computer and the camera.

The best single HDMI capture you need.

This is a great capture card that does exactly what it says, effortlessly. It negotiates all resolutions and frame rates, and the handy app allows you to see all the information about the incoming hdmi signal, and adjust any parameters if necessary. The loop-thru is perfect for capturing a console or PC before sending it to a tv/monitor as normal. The only worrisome part is the USB3 Type-A to Type-A cable that it comes with is not common. If you lose the cable, you likely will not have another one just lying around.

Great HDMI Capture Device

This is an excellent HDMI capture component. It arrived well packaged from Adorama. This device worked exactly as advertised and was simply plug-and-play without any issues occurring. It is a great device for converting HDMI to a USB input.
