Viewing Retropie Gameplay through SSH/Putty?

I bought one of these HDMI Capture devices

Interesting. I tried one of those once, but sent it back because it added approx. ½ second delay to the picture. I presume yours doesn't do that?

That said, my Pi is set to 1600x1200 pixels. Maybe your resolution is lower or more widespread so the device is able to process it faster?

@joesnow81 Yeah, I have a little Toshiba Satellite that's six years old with just two gigs of ram. I'm overdue for an upgrade anyway haha. I was hoping to find a way to just add a mic through the 3.5 inch jack on the Pi but I'm not sure how to enable that for a twitch stream. Any ideas @Global-Moderators ?

There is no delay for the audio or video between my pi and the output captured on the laptop. It's pretty seamless. There is about a 2-3 second delay between the output and twitch but that is to be expected I guess when streaming directly across the web.

@joesnow81 Curious. What the screen resolution of your Pi?

Sorry for the delay, for some reason I don't get notifications of replies via email.

I don't actually know :-)

If you know how to check let me know and I will give you all the settings I have

@joesnow81 The easiest way would be to enter tvservice -s in Retropie's command shell. My output for example:

state 0x6 [DVI CUSTOM RGB full 4:3], 1600x1200 @ 60.00Hz, progressive

@Clyde The current resolution is also shown in the Runcommand launch menu -

@mitu I actually managed to miss that in over two and a half years of Retropie. 😆
