About

A budget UVC-standard capture dongle with an HDMI loop-out — the USB descriptor enumerates fine under Linux V4L2, but independent Linux community testing found the internal analog-to-digital signal converter reduces color bit depth badly, producing visibly blurry, washed-out captures with poor detail resolution, plus HDMI control-channel drops requiring the dongle to be physically unplugged and replugged to recover.

Max resolution
1920x1080@60Hz
Requires DisplayLink driver
No

Ports: 1× HDMI (entrada), 1× HDMI (salida, passthrough) and 1× USB-C (USB 3.0, salida al host)

Confirmed with

  • Notebook (generic)

    Works via UVC, but a specific Dell XPS 15 (9520) unit showed an intermittent robotic audio chirp over OBS/Windows Listen even with matched 48kHz sample rates, and there is a firmware bug where disconnecting/reconnecting the HDMI source requires manually toggling the source off/on in OBS to recover.

  • PS5

    Officially documented by Plugable to capture PlayStation systems, but HDCP must be disabled from the console settings first or there is no video signal at all.

  • Xbox Series X|S

    Official compatibility matrices validate extracting the unencrypted Xbox Series X signal, permitting fluid 1080p60 capture.
