>>4497089>>4497190>>4497924>>4498248She's somehow able to get two HDMI signals, either finally using the passthrough port or having an AV passthrough on the TV itself, but she's still hooking everything up wrong.
The recommended PS4 streaming setup with the GoXLR is:
>(video) PS4 HDMI -> Capture card (to OBS, video only) -> Monitor>(audio) PS4 Optical -> GoXLR -> headphones/OBSThis way she can monitor both her microphone and the game lag-free with one pair of headphones. The only catch is having to add a ~100ms audio delay to the GoXLR output channel in OBS to sync the game video with audio.
What she's actually doing is:
>(video) PS4 HDMI -> TV AV passthrough -> capture card >--OR-- >(video) PS4 HDMI -> capture card passthrough -> TV>(audio) PS4 HDMI -> capture card -> OBS>(audio) PS4 -> TV headphone jack -> headphones #1>(audio) Microphone -> GoXLR -> headphones #2/OBSSo likely she has no idea what she was doing, bumbled into an uncomfortable but working setup, and is too afraid to change it but also don't want to deal with it for a Switch game.
What she could be doing that works for any HDMI capable console:
>(audio) Console HDMI (capture card passthrough/splitter) -> Monitor aux out -> optional ground loop isolator -> GoXLR -> headphones/OBS>--OR-- >(audio) Console HDMI -> optical audio extractor -> GoXLR -> headphones/OBS>(video) Console HDMI -> capture card (to OBS, video only) -> monitorThe aux cord method is what Ame uses now on the Switch except she's sending video to a portable monitor that's probably still a little laggy. From what we know, unless Gura is relying on the TV for AV passthrough, she already has all the parts to do this setup.
My hope now is that getting a possibly useless splitter will get her to look at the back of her monitor and remember the aux cord advice that she read a while back.
