HDMI 1.4 Pass Through with Near-Zero Latency
With 1080p 60Hz (1920×1080 @ 60Hz) HDMI pass through, a splitter is not required for capturing all of your exciting gaming moments.
Plug your console or PC into the HDMI input port, and your display into the HDMI output port, for latency-free and hassle-free pass through. So you won’t need an HDMI splitter just to get a video feed to your display.
Note: Monitor modes above 1920×1080 @ 60Hz are not supported via pass through.
Supports USB 3.0 and USB-C Connections
The NIX capture card includes both USB-C and USB 3.0 (USB-A) cables, so you can connect to virtually any modern Windows, macOS*, or Linux system with USB 3.0 (or higher) ports.
USB-A is the traditional rectangular USB port. USB-C is a newer standard with an oblong oval-shaped connector found on more recent computers. Thunderbolt 3 ports also function as USB-C ports.
USB 3.0 is also listed as USB 3.1 (Gen 1)/USB 3.2 (Gen 1) by some computer manufacturers. USB 2.0 connections will limit capture quality.
* Mac systems can be used for recording other platforms but are not compatible as input source.
Plug and Play, Not Proprietary
By utilizing built-in drivers in your operating system for direct capture, you don’t have to take away from battling it out online trying to manage clunky additional software or drivers.
With the lowest resource usage around, the NIX capture card doesn’t waste precious memory capacity or CPU/GPU performance to capture your gaming footage.
Compatibility Details
The NIX capture card is able to capture HDMI output from popular gaming consoles such as PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch!
Note: macOS, and platforms which require High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP), such as Blu-ray/DVD players, iPadOS/iOS, Roku, Netflix, etc, are not supported as sources. Older consoles such as the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 require HDCP on their HDMI outputs and are not supported.
The capture card uses Frame Rate Up Conversion (FRUC) to take input from the source platform (PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4) and upsample the video to 1920×1080 at 60 frames per second. In some cases streamed text may appear smaller in appearance compared to the pass through display.
