Pros & Cons

Pros

  • ✓ Accepts 4K HDMI input and mirrors it to a TV through the loop-out port while you record
  • ✓ UVC/UAC class compliant, so OBS and other protocol-compatible apps see it with no driver install
  • ✓ USB 3.0 bus powered - no wall adapter or power brick to carry
  • ✓ USB 3.0 male-to-male and HDMI cables both included in the box
  • ✓ All-metal matte housing spreads heat better than sealed plastic dongles on long sessions

Cons

  • ✗ Capture resolution tops out at 1080p even though the input port takes 4K sources
  • ✗ No capture software bundled; you supply OBS or another UVC-compatible app
  • ✗ Single HDMI input, so two consoles need an HDMI switch or a second card
  • ✗ macOS is not listed in the stated compatibility - only Windows 7 and later plus Linux

Manufacturer description

The Naivaunsin capture card is a plug-and-play HDMI dongle that sends your Nintendo Switch or other HDMI game output to a PC over USB 3.0, with no external power supply required. It accepts up to 4K input and captures at 1080p, while the loop-out port keeps a full-quality feed running to your TV or monitor so you play with real-time feedback instead of a lagging preview window. Because the card is UVC and UAC class compliant, it appears as a standard camera and audio device in third-party software that follows those protocols, such as OBS, on Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 or later, and Linux - there…

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this capture card work with the Nintendo Switch?

Yes. Connect the Switch dock's HDMI output to the card's HDMI input, then run the included USB 3.0 male-to-male cable to your PC. The signal indicator at the HDMI port lights up once video is being captured.

Can it record in 4K?

No. The card accepts 4K HDMI input and passes it through the loop-out port, but the capture stream to your computer is 1080p. Plan on 1080p footage even from a 4K source.

Do I need to install drivers or extra software?

No drivers. The card is UVC and UAC compliant, so Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 or later and Linux recognize it as a standard camera and audio device. You still need your own capture app, such as OBS or another UVC-compatible program.

Will there be lag while I play?

The loop-out port sends the game picture straight to your TV or monitor in real time, so you play off the passthrough display rather than the software preview. Any latency you see in the recording window does not affect the loop-out feed.

Does it need its own power supply?

No. It is bus powered over USB 3.0, and the power indicator at the USB port lights up when it is connected. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0, though USB 3.0 is what the card is specified for.
