Xsplit support and software didn't work for me, so here I am...

Xsplit was choppy and laggy, crap! Both streaming and recording for me, locked up tons of times. For whatever reason, have no clue, Elgato software is smooth and awesome, even on highest setting. I would use that for streaming but I want twitch alerts.

OBS is a lot better, but still getting choppiness

JackOr recommended one of these cards

"C127 Game Broadcaster HD or the C985 Live Gamer HD are interesting for you, with the Game Broadcaster HD offering Composite and Component video inputs through the extra cables. The Live Gamer HD only offers HDMI input so that one is out for older consoles.
(All 3 mentioned ones work fine with OBS)"

I'll have to decide on one, I never planned on streaming, but after trying it out, pretty cool...
 
I think I settled on SC-512N1, I dont want have to risk any lag from the 3.0...

I see they fixed the audio issue with some extra pins, now what's the deal with HDCP, I need a HDMI splitter?

If you can recommend me one on Amazon, please do so....
