So I recently received an Elgato Game CaptureHD 60 S Early Access. I decided to put my old Elgato Game Capture HD to good use and plug it into my Eken H9 Camera. Problem? I can't show the 2 elgato's simultaneously in OBS Studio. I've tried installing 2 different versions of the elgato GC software, but installing 1 version removes the other, even in a different folder. So my question to you is: Is it possible to use 2 different versions of the Elgato at the same time? Or could it be because of the early access version I have?

Elgato HD 60S is plugged into my PC, while the HD is plugged into a USB Hub.

Is there still something in the works for using 2 El Gato HD60's simultaneously? I want to run one as the main screen off of my xbone and my boyfriend's sceen from his as a smaller side window. Note: 2 xbox ones and 2 el gato hd 60 to one PC. I think I read somewhere you didn't have the drivers figured out to use 2. ATM we're using a webcam to capture his screen whilst streaming and it is driving me crazy.

No, the HD60 cannot do this due to driver limitations.

The only devices that can be used together or with the HD60 are the HD60 S and the HD60 Pro.

Is this something that is in the works? We have three HD60's so if this functionality is in the works then we can wait. Basically I want to know whether or not I should start saving my pennies. XD

Also I apologize for the thread hijack here, but I just was looking for clarification in the event I did need to upgrade.

The HD60S and the HD60 PRO both can work with more than one at a time correct? Is there a limit? For example could you use 4 of them simultaneously on the same machine? (Assuming of course the machine was up to the challenge hardware wise of course?)

Also I have seen you answering similar questions to this over and over again, so thank you for being patient and taking the time. :)

With the HD60 S and HD60 Pro you can have up to 4 connected to one computer. I actually tested 4x HD60 Pro and 4x HD60 S at the same time. Kinda crazy.

As for multi card support for the HD60, no update there.

@LtRoyalShrimp as I well understood, a HD can be used simmultaniously with a HD60S, to stream using the El gato Software. Right? Thank you again for all you aptiente and support. El gato company should really feel happy for having ppl like you help us users. Big up!

Hiya @LtRoyalShrimp!

I have an Elgato HD 60 PRO installed into my PC and an Elgato HD60S. I would love to use my Canon camera with the HD60S and Gameplay via the pro. I actually did that, using the link you provided and it worked like a charm!

But when I'm live streaming, and switch my HDMI source, OBS will crash. So I went and installed a more recent Elgato Firmware. Ever since that, I've been unable to find the Elgato HD60S option in OBS.

Would appreciate any support! =D
