Streaming Equipment

[Mikkelmann]

I just wanted to make a small thread showing you guys what equipment to stream from your Wii or Gamecube. If you want to play on your T.V you need to be next to your T.V. This is not a guide thread teaching you how to stream this is just giving you the things you need to stream. But I will make a thread teaching you how to stream.

I.Streaming Software​

You can find a bunch of these on the internet but these are the ones I recommend and I'll have one for Mac and PC.

PC
Open Broadcast Software
Xsplit
Mac
Wirecast
Flash Media Encoder/Camtwist
II. Capture
Cards​

You can get a lot of capture cards but this is the one I use and a lot of the ones people use to stream. These should have audio also.

MonoPrice USB
Elgato Game Capture

Splitters
and Composite Cables

Streaming Guide​

That's the thread but if I missed something tell me . I'll make a streaming guide later also.

this is quite nifty. I wish someone that's not me would compile the various options for streaming smash.

Hey! This is great! I have the Elegato HD Capture, but it only has HDMI in. How do I get my Gamecube/Wii to have HDMI out to go into the Elegato HDMI in? Thanks!!

This can be fixed by getting the wii2hdmi converter

but if your elagto has an S-Video looking out put you can just use this
https://www.elgato.com/en/online-store
scroll down a bit till you find "Component Adapter" hopefully this helped you and ask me if you have anymore questions .

What's your opinion of the Hauppauge HD PVR 2 Gaming Edition? I really only got it because of it's HDMI and Composite hook up capability without purchasing extra equipment, and it seems to work great for recording game play from my Wii U and GameCube. It also have it's own streaming capability with it's own program called "StreamEez" I had no prior experience with capture cards, so I just got what seemed easiest to use. Did I jump the gun? Should I have gotten the Elgato instead?

I never used a Hauppauge before but from what you been saying it seems really good. I always suggest Elgato to everybody but if what you're using is working then I think it's a great capture card. If you have any more questions or need an opinion please let me know and I would be happy to respond.

Hey i was looking into streaming melee but i only have HD "gaming" monitors at the moment and was wondering if input delay would make melee unplayable or even be noticeable in any way

 

[iAmMatt]

I'd imagine that an elgato wouldn't work with a gamecube or wii, seeing as it requires an hdmi cable.

I know there's a thread on this somewhere, but I can't find it for the life of me. It has something to do with a converter of some sort. Alternatively, you could run melee on an emulator just fine with an hd monitor.

EDIT: I'm dumb, an a/v cable would work -_-
Either way, is it worth dropping $160 for it, or should I just go with the cheapo Monoprice usb capturer?
