Unable to increase resolution to 4K resolution with Elgato HD60 S+

Wed Jul 26, 2023 6:55 am

Hey guys I have been trying to increase my capture resolution to 4K using my Game Capture HD60 S+ (Elgato) but it seems Mirillis Action is only picking up a 1080p output

I know it isn't a capture card issue because I have the correct settings on my capture cards software and it outputs 4K just fine

What do you guys suggest? I also have used the "default" capture resolution but it still doesn't fix the issue and continues to output at 1080p

Hello.
Elgato HD60 s+ accpets 4k as an input and can passthrough 4k. But it encodes only in 1080p.

I can understand how frustrating that must be, especially when the capture card itself seems to handle 4K correctly. I would probably double-check whether Mirillis Action has a separate recording resolution cap or if the input source is being detected as 1080p instead of 4K.

I think this is a frustrating issue, especially when the capture card is already confirmed to be outputting 4K correctly. The excerpt suggests that the bottleneck may be within the recording software's capture settings or compatibility with the HD60 S+ rather than the hardware itself.
