Capture Card for HDMI Sources
The NShi USB 3.0 capture device records HDMI video at up to 1080p 60fps from consoles such as PS4, Xbox One, Wii U and DSLR cameras. It accepts 4K input at 30 or 60Hz and 1080p at 120 or 144Hz, while output is limited to 2K 30Hz. No drivers or external power are required; the unit appears as a webcam on Windows and Mac OS.
Passive Operation and Power
The aluminium enclosure runs without a fan, drawing all power from the USB 3.0 bus. Typical draw stays well below the port limit, so no separate adapter is needed. Silent operation means no audible noise during streams or recordings, and the low-latency path keeps gameplay responsive on the HDMI loop-out.
3.5 mm Microphone Input
A single 3.5 mm TRS jack mixes external commentary directly into the captured stream without extra software routing. The card works with OBS, Potplayer, VLC and major streaming platforms out of the box. Buyers needing XLR microphones, multi-channel audio or 4K 120Hz pass-through should consider other solutions.

Questions about this item
How do I install the NShi capture card and which step do people often miss?
Connect the source to the HDMI input, plug the USB 3.0 cable into the computer, then select the device as a webcam in OBS or your streaming software; the step many skip is setting the project frame rate to 60 fps so the 1080p60 signal is not down-scaled.
What maintenance or replacement will the NShi capture card need later?
No internal parts require servicing; only the USB 3.0 cable and the 3.5 mm TRS microphone jack may wear out after repeated insertion cycles and can be replaced with standard cables.
What limit appears first during a long streaming session with the NShi capture card?
The output caps at 2K30 Hz, so even though the HDMI input accepts 1080p120 or 144 Hz, sustained capture is limited to 30 frames per second at the higher resolution.
