SAN FRANCISCO, California – April 19, 2013– Elgato announced today that Elgato Game Capture HD is the first game recorder that supports YouTube’s newly introduced Live Streaming API. Gamers with a streaming-enabled Youtube account can broadcast their gameplay directly from inside the Elgato Game Capture HD Software – no matter what game they’re playing or what console they’re using.

Seamless streaming experience

“The new Live Streaming API makes YouTube the most integrated platform for gamers to connect with their audiences,” said Adam Steinberg, Vice President, Marketing at Elgato. “We’ve been working closely with Google to provide commentators and pro players with a seamless experience for recording and streaming gameplay on YouTube.” Elgato Game Capture HD makes it extremely easy to broadcast gameplay on YouTube. With just one click, gamers can start live broadcasts that include audio commentaries. What’s more, Elgato Game Capture HD simultaneously captures the stream for later editing and sharing.

Tailored to gamers


Elgato Game Capture HD uses H.264 hardware encoding to record high definition gameplay from Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 in HD quality at up to 30 Mbits per second. At the same time, gameplay is passed through to the TV via HDMI with no delay. Elgato Game Capture HD doesn’t need a lot of cables or even a power supply – the hardware connects directly to the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 using a single cable. Thanks to the unique Flashback Recording feature, Elgato Game Capture HD remembers the gameplay that has preceded it, even if the record button wasn’t pressed. Gamers can simply go back to the start of the scene they want to record and begin recording retroactively. The Elgato Game Capture HD also allows for social interaction and sharing. With just a single click, live gameplay can be recorded for sharing with friends and fans on YouTube, Facebook or Twitter. It’s even possible to trim gameplay videos for later editing using a video-editing program.

System Requirements 


Live Streaming via YouTube requires a streaming-enabled YouTube account, and the public beta version 1.3 of the Elgato Game Capture HD Software, available at gamecapture.com/youtube.

Pricing & Availability


Elgato Game Capture HD is available from Elgato (gamecapture.com), Amazon, the Apple Online Store, and selected other retailers for US$179.95. Elgato Game Capture HD software is available as a free download at gamecapture.com/download.
