literally got this camera and link today. thanks guys!
If you experience freezing for the camera feed when you add your camera source in OBS, you will most likely need to purchase an expansion USB PCI-E cards, as a lot of motherboards dont play well with the CamLink.
NO WONDER MY IMAGE LOOK PIXALATED !!! YOU GUYS ROCK !
Thanks just picked up the camera this week I had a feeling I might need a dummy battery thanks for confirming!
quick straight to the point fixed the problem thank you.
So it doesn’t overheat like everyone says, if you’re just using it with the camlink to stream right? And what is a dummy battery lol? And does it come with the camera?
Does the cam link transfer audio also? What if there is an external audio for better sound quality like an rode mic?
Do you need to install some driver first before using the camlink?
How do I connect my audio Rode Filmmaker for live-streaming if my camera Sony A5100 doesn’t have a mic socket? Through my computer?
DO i need to get a dummy battery? cant i connect the camera to a USB charging hub/port instead just like you normally charge it?
The camera will not charge while turned on.
Can the camlink plug into a macbook usb-c with an usb-a to usb-c adaptor and work fine?
Can you do a video setup with game capture hd60 s + cam link 4k to make they work togheter?
O M G this is SO helpful, thank you so much!
How about changing setting when you go back to the normal usage/filming of the camera? any tips?
My camera would be shutdown after 30 mins (highest value for shutdown when doing nothing) how I can fix this?
Powered by dummy battery.
How do I get the A5100 do deliver 3840x2160 (4k) to the HDMI output? Currently it delivers only 1080p, nothing more.
My a5100 video freezes every now and then when I'm streaming. Is there a way to fix it?
Very helpful thanks! What's the name of the music in this video!
hi, when i choose these settings it does not let me go below 4k as an output but i want 1080p, any ideas?
It’s not working it’s saying it needs to be a still imagine I’ve done everything I can ?
did you ever figure this out?
Using this camera with Camlink will create a video delay in OBS? I'm asking because I have a Hero Pro 7, and there is a video delay of 2 to 3 secs. Also, the FPS even set at 60 looks like a 20 FPS in OBS
To remove video delay on GoPro, turn off image stabilisation
alguien sabe porque mi camara se apaga depues de 30 minutos apesar de haber apagado su configuracion en el sistema de la camara? y como lo soluciono.
Just bought Elgato Cam Link 4K, streaming/recording with OBS and camera enters in sleep every 5 minutes. Any help ?
what camera is it
Can you substitute the Elgato Game Capture HD S+ for a Elgato Cam Link for youtube channel video's without gaming? The Cam Link has been sold out for sometime and those that are available are 400+ USD.
If so before making an investment I want to make sure I am current to use this. Effectively I would need to purchase a micro HDMI to HDMI cable (A5100 to Capture Card), USB C power adapter (power the unit and prevent me from having a USB C to 3.0 cable) to power this unit, and a HDMI to USB 3.0 (Capture Card to iMac). I know that sounds a lot but if I can score one for 200 that's still cheaper than the 400+ for the Cam Link 4K (with a A5100 it would only ever get 1080p which a okay). Thanks for the future assist.
you can use any capture card for a camera. As long as it has a hdmi input. Make sure its atleast 1080p30fps or 1080p60fps.
I have a canon 2000d, I keep it on in video mode and I connect it to the cam link ... after “x” minutes my camera goes into standby and therefore I ruin the live streaming.
How to do?
Telling us is does, doesn't answer the question "How to do?" All I see are different time settings for auto sleep, no off.
Any update on a solution for this?
Gracias por el video, a question, what is the correct shutter speed, 1/60 ?
For 30 FPS = 1/60 60fps = 1/125
What about the overheating issue? Does it still overheat during a stream?
pretty sure that only happens when recording but im not quite sure
I have the same question
If you use a dummy battery, it doesn't overheat.
@@drumtravelfun thanks bro
Can I power the camera through USB instead of using a dummy battery?
no
And it just freezes and no fix
how long does the original battery last with continuous streaming?. Anybody has tried it?
Mauricio Misraji around 45 minutes
Ok so I got this setup with a dummy battery, but the camera still turns off every 30min due to the "Power Save Start Time" feature. It seems impossible to disable? I even tried the Open memories Tweak hack. Do you have any solutions?
Have you find any solutions for this issue? Seems like auto shut off every 30 mins is a bummer! :(
Does the a5100 use micro or mini hdmi?
micro
Does an A5000 work with cam link?
not working
Hi, what resolution will I get in my Zoom call, using this camera via OBS?
For A5100, up to 1080p
But does this setup work with Wirecast and OBS?
did you ever get an answer to this? (OBS)
Why does the combination of the Sony A5100 and Camlink 4K cause a 2015 15" MacBook Pro's CPU to run high? Rhe fans get so loud so that they are picked up by the microphone. The settings are as suggested here and elsewhere. I've emailed and tweeted at Elgato but they're not replying... maybe it is a known issue they can't fix?
Maybe try different video formats supported by camlink. The UVC drivers for mac aren't the best and doesn't use gpu to decode h.264 video format provided by elgato. Try using nv12.
Anyone found a way to turn off skin smoothing completely without pressing record? (or do digital zooming)
There is way can’t recall what need to be off on the top of my head

Cam Link 4K worked one night of streaming and now OBS Studio does not get an image from it...... junk !!!!
i get 24fps for some reason?
We're sorry you're experiencing this. If you haven't already, please file a ticket at e.lga.to/help so our support team can look into this.
why is my view become dark and deem?
Why shoud you have a dummy battery
1. it makes your camera cooler
2. uninterrupted power, of course you can just plug usb, but as what i said it will make your camera a bit hotter,
Why does this video contain such loud, horrible "music" (noise)? What kind of joke company is Elgato?
Anony Tube What? I don't know if I'm being fooled but there is nothing wrong with the music, and what does that have to do with anything about the brand and products?
@@mikehillproject I am not even using a headset. Why would I?
This horrible noise ("music") has just nothing to do with the product, so annoy the viewers with it?
Do you play music during your meetings at work? No? That's exactly the same thing.
