EL Gato is way overrated I have owned several EL Gato products including a stream deck, a capture card and most recently the Wave 3 microphone. At one time paying a little more for EL Gato products seemed like a good choice, but with my experience it has not been the case. Over time all of the above products let me down with compatibility issues during software updates and poor tech support. The wave 3 sound quality become so bad I just got rid of it after less than a year of use. I tried everything, wasted a lot of time and in the end it just didn't do the job. That's kind of been my experience with all EL Gato products. Sad but true. I wouldn't buy from them again.

Streamdeck now requires an account to use plugins. No thank you Bought a streamdeck couple of months ago and been enjoying it rather well. Not used freqvently but it has been working. However today I've noticed they now demand that you create an account JUST to add plugins for the Stream Deck software. Elgato didn't require account before. Why does Elgato feel the need to track and datamine everything we do? I will problably start looking around for alternatives.

Successful digitisation of VHS tapes with Elgato Video Capture dongle I bought an Elgato Video Capture dongle from PLI Computers in Melbourne Australia and it has worked really well. I was able to copy all my VHS tapes over to my laptop without any issues at all. Loading the software was a bit cumbersome but once it was on the laptop it was literally plug and play. Well worth the money.

They hung up on me My elgato HD60S has never worked right, despite my PC being a beefy god. Today it completely shut down, no signal. I've replaced all the cables, followed all the troubleshooting on their website and did some extra on my own. When I finally gave up and called their support (At 11am MST on a Thursday) the robot said no customer support agents were available, and to call back later, then HUNG UP on me lmfao. Unprofessional company who will literally ignore you if you have any problems with their overpriced junk parts.

Warranty is not covered if you buy from 3rd party I have my card under warranty 4k60 s+ i bought it from ebay and power adapter was lost I wanted to buy a new power adapter but the support said its only covered under warranty and they dont sell it so far so good later i was informed that my card is under warranty but due to me buying it from 3rd party they said they cant replace it and they cant sell me a new power adpater not just a bad company but bad service too worst of the worst out there i regret buying it PS it took them 14 days to inform me the result
