Fantastic video, thanks for staying on top of this. Now if only Elgato would speak up, but based on my own personal experience with them it seems they only give attention to their "Sponsored Partners". I may have missed this but does the latest Mac update to Sonoma 14.5 break the ability to see the card in OBS? I've been holding off on this update until I get confirmation.

DO NOT UPDATE!!!!!!!! I have just updated to 14.5 on one of my Macs and the 4K X isn't even seen by the Elgato Capture Device Utility and therefore OBS does not see it either. Yes, Elgato need to speak up about all these issues and also warn user if a particular macOS update is going to cause problems. Or Elgato should be on top of this and releasing updated software when there is a change in macOS. Cheers, Dave.

If you go back to OBS 30.0.2, you can select between 601 and 709 today. After that OBS version, you lose the choice for 709. I also verified this on another capture card (Shadowcast 2 Pro), so it wasn't just the Elgato. I'm in my return policy for the 4k X and I'm still thinking I'll return it just due to the MJpeg recording at 4k. What's the point of having a 10gbps device if it's not using the bandwidth? Elgato needs to have explicit information about what their device can and cannot do on macOS since it's advertised for the platform. I shouldn't have to be scouring KZitem to find people testing specific features Elgato say works great and then to find either it doesn't or uncertainty. This is a huge mess for a $230 device. I still appreciate your videos on the device though.

ADVICE NEEDED... I have tried every video on youtube to seek this out and still the issue remains: I keep getting laggy recordings...Im using a 2019 macbook pro, Elgato 4kx, LG C2, PS5 and OBS , I have even tried setting everything to 1080p @120hz (even the output resolution on the ps5 at 1080) and recordings still come out noticeably glitchy! Videos on youtube show that you should be able to play the game watching the mac screen from the capture card because the lag is suppose to be so low!! when i watch playback on OBS, there is still a lot of lag! But Im sure im missing some minor detail someone/myself has missed out ??

While the issue sounds like your encoding settings, the 4K X has serious issues anyway with Macs, especially Apple Silicon ones. So it may simply be an issue with the 4K X.

@@colin.restall It sounds like you are having very similar issues to me. There's nothing we can really do, we need Elgato to fix it. Cheers, Dave.
