yes I do I have

I uh [ __ ] ass I go for my I just do

my gaming PC so I go from

my switch to the in and then the out

goes to my main monitor yeah that sounds

about

right I'll use then I'll use Elgato 4K

capture and then I'll use that for audio

and then I'll switch my main monitor to

the actual HDMI input so the frames are

better yeah look hooray hooray what you

want to do is grab the

HDMI and then plug it into the

back oh is he giving like a tutorial

right

now okay okay okay it in dumbass

terms HDMI into

input into input on my streaming on

Elgato yeah why are you doing it onto

your streaming I have to I'm streaming

for my streaming PC and then I'm gaming

on my main monitor I think you might be

better off just running into your gaming

PC and then using the 4K capture utility

and then putting that up on your main

screen and then cuz your stream PC is

going to capture whatever you see on

your screen on your M your gaming so why

don't you just do that do you have an

Elgato in that one no but I have an

external

Elgato does anyone else

from switch to the stream PC Yes mine is

what problem literally just tell me what

wires HDMI from the switch into the

input of the Elgato okay and then now

stop there stop there all right [ __ ]

holy now what so either a you can watch

the game through your game capture which

is simple you can plug in the HDMI from

the output into your uh monitor [ __ ] and

then watch it through there which I

recommend cuz the might will display

port from your computer to just an HDMI

correct but then how do you display that

on OBS it should it should be good it

should just be game capture the person

that joined if I explain it anymore

it'll be yep you'll overwhelm me and
