    Could you tell us exactly which simple USB HDMI capture device you found that works well in Linux?

    I’ve been looking for one myself.

      No problem! This one right here: https://a.co/d/5o60f87

      I must admit, it’s a little weird that it connects with a USB A to USB A cable, but it works great. Takes 4K input, has pass thru, ouputs 1080p 60 fps to OBS, no driver was needed. Just worked. Be sure to set it up in OBS to use YUY12 color space (emulated) and make sure your consoles have RGB range set to “limited” as this little guy doesn’t play well with expanded/full. Don’t worry, the image quality is still great. I streamed FFXIV and Zelda with it recently. Look at twitch.tv/littlecolt for my recent streams, they are all on this thing.
