Here is a closer look at Elgato Game Capture 4K60 S+ (10GAP9901).

About

The rare standalone recorder that hits true 4K60 with HDR to an SD card, no PC required to record — but changing bitrate/codec settings requires extracting the card and hand-editing a settings.txt on a computer.

Max resolution
3840x2160@60Hz
Requires DisplayLink driver
No

Ports: 1× USB 3.0 Type-C (datos/PC), 1× USB Type-C (energía), 1× HDMI 2.0 (entrada, sin encriptar), 1× HDMI 2.0 (salida, passthrough), 1× Audio 3.5mm TRS line-in and 1× SD (UHS-3/V30)

Confirmed with

  • Notebook (generic)

    Standalone mode configuration is entirely PC-dependent despite being marketed as PC-free: adjusting bitrate, codec (H.264/HEVC), or container format requires removing the SD card and manually editing a settings.txt file on a computer — there is no on-device UI. HDR-to-SDR tonemapping is not available in standalone mode.

    Confirmed — caveat
  • Steam Deck

    Does not work when paired with a MacBook Pro M1 Max as the recording host — a Reddit user reports OBS is unable to recognize the capture card at all when trying to stream Steam Deck gameplay through it.
