[00:00:00] You
[00:00:30] Thank you.
[00:01:00] You
[00:01:30] Sorry gamers the Elgato sounds really bad give me a second it sounds like you are being
[00:01:49] electrocuted by Emperor Palpatine.
[00:01:54] I have an unplugged, replugged, but I'm going to need a minute to try to get it to work.
[00:02:00] Give me a second here.
[00:02:54] I'm going to try to finish this ranked cable smash on.
[00:02:57] Anybody else's Elgato just starts sounding like you're being struck by lightning permanently
[00:03:02] when you turn it on?
[00:03:04] Yes.
[00:03:05] Yes.
[00:03:06] Does everything wrong?
[00:03:07] I think I have the one Elgato that works.
[00:03:10] Are you live yet?
[00:03:12] I am live, yes.
[00:03:13] Okay.
[00:03:14] Well then I won't say what I was going to say about the company Elgato.
[00:03:19] Which is that it's awesome, but...
[00:03:21] They're awesome.
[00:03:22] on the show positions in this company that need to be disclosed that's right
[00:03:30] Personally, I like having a I like having a light that's connected to the internet
[00:03:33] And so if my internet craps out for like a second the light goes out too. It's just our future. Yeah
[00:03:39] It's what's really cool is I love that too because with mine if the internet goes out
[00:03:43] It just sets I keep that light at like 20% but then it goes to a hundred percent. Yes. Oh
[00:03:49] That's so it's so nice when that happens
[00:03:52] Yeah, yeah, the default the factory default for the Elgato key light is 100% is cornea searing
[00:04:00] Frying your shit to a crisp. I used to have I gotta fix it. I just dream
[00:04:04] Oh, yeah, I mean, they're they're coming in hot. Give me a second here to troubleshoot this
[00:04:09] Otherwise I could stay and chop it up for for an hour easily
[00:04:13] So true there is a light and it never goes out anybody have any idea what could be causing this horrible crackling noise
[00:04:19] points. Someone was saying something about the Switch 2 and HDMI. Someone said something
[00:04:31] about it. I would love for you to type it again now that I can read it well.
[00:04:49] And they are gone forever.
[00:04:51] Crackling seems to be gone for now.
[00:04:53] The troubleshooter.
[00:04:54] Get ready.
[00:04:55] Get ready for this.
[00:04:56] Get ready for this.
[00:04:57] I'm turning the switch on.
[00:05:07] Seems fine for me.
[00:05:08] You think so?
[00:05:09] To me, it kind of sounds like one of the most unpleasant auditory sensations that I've
[00:05:14] ever experienced in my entire life, but I might be alone in that one.
[00:05:18] Change the audio settings and then change back, okay wait, wait, wait, wait, that could be big.
[00:05:27] Do you have any more information about like in what piece of software I should change the audio settings?
[00:05:48] Nobody knows. Probably the Elgato. Thanks for your help.
[00:05:51] I forgot this is why you don't troubleshoot in Twitch Chat.
[00:05:54] I know there is one hero in Twitch Chat right here, and the problem is that all of our heroes,
[00:05:59] our nation's heroes are like, I don't know if I should type, it might just make it worse.
[00:06:04] And all the people who know nothing are like, let me get in with my help.
[00:06:14] We need the heroes to have more confidence, bro.
[00:06:18] Change resolution on the switch from 1080p to 720p and back, mostly pure orange, you're
[00:06:26] today's hero.
[00:06:28] In the switch itself or in the OBS source of it?
[00:06:42] In the switch itself?
[00:06:45] If this works, I mean, listen, if it doesn't work, you're not evil, because this seems
[00:06:50] helpful.
[00:06:51] But if it does work, it's guaranteed VIP.
[00:06:53] Let me put it that way.
[00:06:58] System settings.
[00:07:02] Display.
[00:07:09] I'm going to turn off HDR output, just in case.
[00:07:18] I'm also going to go TV resolution, 720p, exit.
[00:07:25] And then I'm going to go display TV resolution, 1080p full HD.
[00:07:39] And then we're going to put it on the switch one dock a couple of times accidentally, which
[00:07:56] is not probably what you're supposed to be doing.
[00:08:02] And then we're going to open up the piece of software.
[00:08:12] Not only sounds horrible, but it's also not receiving any video.
[00:08:20] I think honestly, normally this advice is annoying to me, but oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, hang on.
[00:08:26] I do think we should change cables, maybe, but Algado forms, say, open Algado.
[00:08:31] OK, well there's a problem.
[00:08:32] Because Elgato is deprecated, the Elgato GameCapture HD
[00:08:35] software, as of Windows 11, I cannot open the Elgato Game
[00:08:39] Capture HD 2 software, because it doesn't exist anymore.
[00:08:43] But let me see if they have that setting in the remaining
[00:08:46] piece of software that you are now compelled to use.
[00:08:52] It's going to sound horrible for a second.
[00:08:55] Device Settings, click Device Settings, flip, convert.
[00:09:01] Standard definition is 640 by 480 and then change again.
[00:09:09] Sadly, sadly no setting, I'm sorry to say.
[00:09:17] Okay, we try a different cable thing.
[00:09:22] Give me a moment.
[00:09:23] We actually should have the ability to get a different table.
[00:09:37] We can at least eliminate another variable.
[00:09:53] Okay, that was easy.
[00:10:08] And we try again.
[00:10:13] Please, please, please.
[00:10:20] Not the cable.
[00:10:21] Sadly, not the cable
[00:10:24] Okay
[00:10:38] There's also no video which is a problem
[00:10:44] Wait, wait, we got disable enhancements.
[00:10:50] Go to settings, sound advance, all sound devices, select your Elgato, turn off audio enhancements.
[00:11:00] Change sample rate on the audio device.
[00:11:02] Here, let me give the boys an update for just a second.
[00:11:10] So sorry guys, I made the mistake of rebooting my PC last night and Windows update might
[00:11:18] have caused an issue with the Elgato software.
[00:11:26] I'm in the troubleshooting minds and hope to be out soon.
[00:11:40] All right, and then, can I get the DevKL message one more time?
[00:11:47] I can pull it on myself.
[00:11:51] DevKL, Disable Enhancements, Windows 11, go to Settings, Sound, Advanced, All Sound Devices,
[00:12:08] your Elgato device. There it is. Turn off audio enhancements. I'm there. I'm there 100%. The
[00:12:31] only thing is I don't see an audio enhancements button on it. All sound devices. Select your
[00:12:37] Elgato device, it's on an input device right there.
[00:12:41] I see it.
[00:12:49] They've given me exasperated person
[00:12:51] drinking a cup of coffee as an emote.
[00:12:54] Here's what I see.
[00:12:55] I see audio, set as default sound device,
[00:12:59] format, input volume, microphone test
[00:13:04] microphone test and test mode for microphone processing and that's all I see.
[00:13:15] The other thing I'm thinking I could do
[00:13:22] is um
[00:13:26] device manager, disable, re-enable device
[00:13:28] and then re-enable the device, restart the PC.
[00:13:40] Wait, DevKL said something.
[00:13:46] DevKL. When was the last time you rebooted?
[00:13:52] Yesterday. They said install Linux.
[00:13:54] DevKL, you're lucky you're staffed.
[00:13:55] That's all I'm going to say.
[00:13:56] Okay, streets are saying right click on, okay, one second, audio.
[00:14:00] They're also saying that in the Discord, they're saying three of them are having issues right
[00:14:07] now with their Elgato.
[00:14:10] So it's not just me, Rook.
[00:14:17] So now we restart the process with DevKos message.
[00:14:27] Settings, sound, advanced, all sound devices.
[00:14:41] Elgato Game Capture HD60S, there is no right click function on it.
[00:14:45] I'm afraid.
[00:14:46] There's no, you cannot right click to open a context menu.
[00:14:49] Because increasingly, Windows is like,
[00:14:55] even the advanced settings are like,
[00:14:57] you're too stupid to be trusted to do anything with this.
[00:15:04] There is no properties tab, I'm afraid.
[00:15:05] The properties tab has been deprecated as of Windows 7.
[00:15:16] I'm thinking, oh brother, first thing I'm going to type is, oh brother.
[00:15:23] I'm going to restart and see if that fixes, otherwise I might be out of ideas.
[00:15:31] All right, Chad, I'll be back in probably under five minutes.
[00:15:34] I'm going to try one more reboot and see if it helps.
