  • 2 x HDMI cables.

Setup Steps


 

1) Connect your Xbox Series X|S to the HDMI In of 4K Pro via an HDMI cable.
2) Connect the HDMI Out of 4K Pro to your TV or display via an HDMI cable.
3) Plug one end of the second HDMI cable into the HDMI OUT port of the 4K Pro.
4) Open 4K Capture Utility or OBS Studio to start capturing right away or add 4K Pro to your preferred streaming software such as XSplit, SLOBS, and more.

 

ℹ️ Note: To capture 4K60 HDR with 4K Pro, a 4K60 HDR capable TV or monitor is required. To use 1440p 144hz, a 1440p 144hz capable TV or monitor is required.

 

Troubleshooting - No Audio is Captured


 
4K Pro hardware can't capture Dolby, DTS or other multichannel digital audio formats. It can capture standard stereo audio. 

Stereo audio may be called Linear PCM.

When using 4K Pro, Linear PCM is the correct audio setting for the Xbox Series X|S
