Hello, new on the forum.

I don't plan to stream on twitch yet but I'd like to record my gameplay and capture the audio of the game and my mic.



Here is my setting :

- Screen 1
=> connect to the elgato

- Screen 2 + Computer
elgato is connect to the computer with the HDMI and the USB-3

- Elgato HD60 S (The Screen 1 is connect to it)
=> connect to the switch


- Ground looping isolator
=> input to the switch
=> ouput to the chat link

- Chat link elgato
=> input to the Ground looping isolator
=> output to Elgato HD60 S

- Headset
=> connect to the Elgato chat link

- A usb Mic
=> connect to my computer


I found a way to display the game on OBS but with no sound.
I can hear the sound on my headset when I'm playing but on the record file it shows only the image, I can't hear my voice neither the game audio.
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? thanks in advance!

Here is where I am at the moment....

when nothing is connected to the audio switch the OBS works fine.
So the image and the sound of the Switch go trough the capture card (Elgato HD60 S) and to the computer.
I can hear the game audio only if I plug my headset to my monitor and the problem is that is too loud and I can't change the volume.

I think it's possible to find a better solution.

Someone post that on reddit :

This is what I do:
Video: Switch to Capture Card to PC & Monitor
Audio: Switch to Aux Cable to Ground Loop Isolator to Audio In on PC to my headphones
There is an video delay due to the capture card. No biggie. I just delay my webcam, microphone audio, and aux cable audio by 625 milliseconds (which is about enough to line up with the video delay of the game). All audio is routed through my PC. This way, my headphones pick up game audio, alerts, music, etc. The sound I hear is real-time and matches my monitor, the sound on stream is manually delayed and matches the delayed video being recorded to the PC from the capture card.

If I didn't use the aux cable, the switch would have just pushed the audio to either the monitor (so not to the PC, not being recorded or going to the stream) or to the PC (thus being delayed itself due to my manual audio delay matching it up with stream video, thus being off from my monitor video).

Let me know if you have any idea,

Thanks in advance
