What killed it, well after reviewing some PS4 gameplay I noticed that it was having audio issues, like it would allow some sounds but not all. It was almost as if it was receiving a 5.1 audio output but was missing the centre channel. Even though the PS4 was set to stereo.

After trying various cables, configs, and boxes. I narrowed it down to this box. Not sure what killed it, whether it’s just old, or that it’s been powered on for over 5 years straight. But its long service will never be forgotten in the hours of Netflix and Disney Plus it passed through to my recorder.

    I never used these. I do get a complimentary amazon prime subscription, so can I use a capture card to screen record/rip 4k content from prime?

      In theory yes. Some only work at 1080p, depends on the unit and the streaming service you use. They’re like 9 quid though so no real loss if you buy one and it doesnt work for your particulars.

        I have a decent gaming PC, amazon prime video. Is there a way I can verify that it records 4k? I’m also looking to upload/seed this somewhere.

          You should see it in the resolution of the file as it would scale it down. It depends if there is a re-encode chip or if there is a pass-through facility. Your PC card should also tell you what the incoming signal/resolution is.
