Magewell USB Capture HDMI 4K Plus video capturing device

SKU CH-2GKJ-G9D6M

Captures HDMI 2.0 4Kp60 4:4:4 video with embedded audio and provides loop-through HDMI output plus headphone audio extraction

  • Capture 4Kp60 4:4:4 video via HDMI 2.0
  • Pass-through HDMI signal to a display while recording
  • Record embedded HDMI audio alongside video
  • Connect a microphone for live commentary
  • Monitor audio through headphone output from HDMI source

HDMI 4K capture and loop-through

This Magewell USB Capture HDMI 4K Plus device captures HDMI video up to 4K at 60 frames per second with 4:4:4 colour sampling and passes the signal through to a display. Embedded HDMI audio is captured alongside the video, while a separate microphone input allows live commentary to be mixed in. The integrated headphone output provides direct monitoring of the captured or extracted audio stream.

Streamers and creators needing 4Kp60 passthrough

The unit suits broadcasters, educators and gamers who require a single-box solution for recording or streaming 4K HDMI sources such as recent consoles while maintaining a zero-latency local view. It is not for workflows that demand multi-channel audio capture, internal PCIe installation, or SDI connectivity, as the hardware provides only HDMI and analogue audio interfaces.

HDMI 2.0 4Kp60 4:4:4 input support

The defining specification is the HDMI 2.0 interface capable of accepting a 4K 60 Hz 4:4:4 signal, which determines whether a source device can be captured at full resolution and chroma fidelity. If the source outputs a higher bandwidth format or requires a different input standard, this capture device will not be compatible.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Magewell USB Capture HDMI 4K Plus and what step is often missed?

Connect the HDMI source to the input, link the loop-through output to a display if needed, plug the USB cable into the host, then select the device in your capture software; the step often missed is confirming the software is set to the correct 4Kp60 4:4:4 input mode.

What maintenance or replacement will the capture device need later?

The unit has no user-serviceable parts or consumable filters; keep the HDMI ports and USB connector free of dust and ensure the firmware stays current through the manufacturer’s update tool for continued compatibility.

What limit appears first during sustained 4Kp60 capture sessions?

Continuous 4Kp60 4:4:4 capture over USB 3.x is typically limited by host controller bandwidth and thermal throttling, which can cause dropped frames before the device itself reaches a hard ceiling.
