But if you’re using it on next gen pro consoles like the Xbox One X or PlayStation 4 Pro, just keep that in mind as it’ll affect the colours in your final recording. If you’re just using it for the Switch, this won’t matter. It’s also not HDR compatible, so if you’re using it with a device like a PlayStation 4 Pro, you won’t be able to view HDR output. This means while you can view footage at 4K, it doesn’t record at that quality. It is not a 4K capture device, but does support 4K passthrough. (I managed 56 Mbit/s on my Switch footage at RECentral 4’s highest settings.)

When connected to a PC for streaming or recording, the bitrate for recording can be set manually up to a maxiumum of 60Mbit/s. The MicroSD I used was a 32GB SanDisk Ultra microSDHC you can purchase for $10 from Officeworks so the lower bitrate here is to be expected. The variability here is to be expected, and will depend on your PC or MicroSD performance. Video captured on the Nintendo Switch via the easy plug-and-play MicroSD mode had a default bitrate of 13.41 Mbit/s, while footage captured on the PlayStation 4 Pro via the PC connection recorded at a stronger 38.9 Mbit/s.

The GC513 records footage at 1080p and 60 frames per second. Helpfully, the program also provides an indicator as to how much content you can record based on file size and PC storage. You can monitor FPS in real-time in RECentral 4 as well as your RAM and CPU usage in the lower right corner.

It’s a minor feature but a very nifty one if you’re planning on using the software to stream. Placing a brightly coloured cloth behind you (it doesn’t have to be green) will give you the best results here. I tested it with a red beanbag as my backdrop and it did a fairly reasonable job at removing it - although it did take part of my nose with it. This is a very handy feature, particularly if you don’t have a green screen. It also comes with a helpful Chroma key feature which allows you to remove the background from your webcam during recording as long as it’s a flat colour (or close to it). In the image above, you’ll see me using the webcam integration to auto-impose myself in the world of Animal Crossing for a test stream. It means you can plug the device into your console, hit the central button and get recording right away.Īs in OBS, multiple scenes can be set for a prettier looking stream. In this mode, the GC513 can record footage directly onto a MicroSD card without the use of a laptop or PC. The MicroSD setting is one of the most useful, and what makes the GC513 so handy. The GC513 has three separate modes available - MicroSD, PC and Transfer. After this, the connection worked just as simply as on the Switch. To remove this, it was a simple matter of switching HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) settings off in the main menu. One additional complication is all footage came through as copyright protected on the PlayStation. Instead, I had to reloop my set-up and take the PSVR out of the chain. Initially, I tried to loop the device through my PSVR headset but since it doesn’t allow HDR passthrough, I wasn’t able to record footage that way. Hooking up a PlayStation 4 Pro was a bit more complicated. It took 2 minutes from opening the box to setting the CG513 up for recording. I primarily used the GC513 to record footage from my Switch, so it was a simple matter of plugging the device into a power source (via USB) and looping an extra HDMI cable into the chain. I worried initially the GC513 wouldn’t integrate well into my set-up, but it was seriously simple, to the point where it made me feel stupid for fretting over it.
My gaming set-up is currently a mess of crossed HDMI wires, too many power plugs and a whole lot of charging cables.
These are the only instructions the AVerMedia GC513 comes with - a simple diagram.
