Hi everyone!
So I've been meaning to create a gaming channel, so I bought myself an Elgato capture card (the HD60x to be precise) to record some of my consoles, including a PAL PS2 FAT (it seemed like fun to circulate some PAL footage online).
But this is where I ran into problems. See, the gameplay records, but the footage is choppy! Now I've tried recording PC gameplay with it and it went just fine, but the moment I tried it on my PS2, it was laggy!
First off, I tried ratchet going commando (50hz interlaced - 480i or 576i I dunno). I saw that the footage was quite slow and stuttery, so I moved over to Jak 2 (60hz, 480p progressive scan)
And even Jak 2 progressive was stuttering (not nearly as much, but still) as opposed to leaving it interlaced. Heck, even without changing to progressive, whilst switching to 60hz, there wasn't any noticeable improvement on the footage (unlike the somewhat tolerable improvement of progressive scan)
Any ideas?
PS: I tried out all the obs settings I could think of. But none of them made any noticeable difference (not even bumping down on the quality).
I want you to keep in mind that: no, there was no noticeable lag or delay in the gameplay itself, and yes, I've played with the lowest latency possible.
My setup is:
PAL PS2 FAT
PS2 to HDMI (component to HDMI stick)
2 HDMI cables
ViewSonic XG2405
Acer nitro 5 (Ryzen CPU, RTX 3060)
