Recommendations
- Check Elgato's site for details such as your camera's maximum resolution, whether it can output a Clean HDMI feed without on-screen data, and whether it can stay on and active for an unlimited time.
- If you are recording video at 4K resolution, do a short test recording to check whether your computer can support the high resolution.
- Otherwise, the Host or Producer should reduce the Studio's default recording resolution.
