Question / Help Elgato On Mac?

Unfortunately Elgato doesn't provide Mac drivers that work with OBS, so you can't add the Game Capture HD as a video capture device. You'll have to run their software in fullscreen and capture the window instead. Support won't be added until Elgato releases proper drivers. It's possible that Jim could get QTKit working, but that has several challenges associated with it.

They don't have AVCapture drivers, but they may have QTKit drivers. Problem is that QTKit is deprecated and 32bit-only, and hardware manufacturers are making it quite difficult on us developers by only supporting the older APIs if they do indeed only support QTKit.

so how would i stream using elgato
Well what i've done works! I got a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter and used a second monitor. You put GamecaptureHD to full screen while your recording programs are on the other screen. Hope this helps!
