How to use

Connect the HDMI output of your camera or other video source to the device's HDMI input, then plug the USB Type-A connector into your computer. The device will present the HDMI source as a webcam to compatible streaming and chat applications; select it as the video input in your software. Ensure your camera is set to a clean HDMI output mode (if applicable) and that audio is enabled on the HDMI output.

Recommendations

For best results, use a camera or source that supports stable HDMI output and set the camera to a resolution supported by your streaming software (720p or 1080p). Verify Windows drivers and app permissions if the device is not immediately recognized. Avoid excessive cable tension and use a direct USB connection to the PC rather than through unpowered hubs.
