First thing is first, what OS are you working with? If it’s like this blog with windows 7 elgato sort of left their software in a usable but buggy state continuing with windows 10 which is a little annoying. First thing you could try is check your device to see if it’s transmitting a hardware ID. To do this, right-click on your Elgato device, and click properties, details, and select hardware ID from the drop-down box. It should give you a vendor and product ID in a string.
If it reads something like VEN0000 or VEN???? That’s really bad. That means it’s not getting an ID. I had this happen when I used a USB cable from an old camera with my elgato.
Not enough shielding. Next I would try to go into device manager and wipe the slate clean. Click on your Elgato device and click ‘uninstall’ there should also be a check-box to state that you wish to remove the drives that go along with this device.
Check that and click OK. Reboot the computer and your device should return as-if it was plugged into a fresh PC. Anyhow, hope it helps and let me know! Initially I was looking at the AverMedia Game Capture HD because it has the ability to transcode and store your captured game onto a SD card that you can later download to your PC. This is super handy if you don’t want to eat CPU cycles or your PC is far away from your gaming rig and you just want to show something off. I settled on the Elgato because when doing video comparisons it had the best quality picture behind it, and to top it all off, it was the cheaper 60p capture card I could buy (I paid $105 for it a year ago). It needs a PC for transcoding, and it does eat some serious CPU cycles as it does it so ideally you want to have this hooked to your twitch or streaming laptop as you are on your badass pc or console.
