Screen-recording is nothing new, but this little guy called 4K HDMI Grabber from Taiwanese audio/visual products maker Pengo, touts compatibility with all latest 4K enabled gaming consoles, including Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Playstation 4, and Playstation 4 Pro. With Pengo 4K HDMI Grabber, you are free to use any UVC-enabled application to capture and stream with software of your choosing, including OBS, XSplit, and Bandicam.
It is a true plug-and-play device with no need for driver or whatsoever and supports multiple platforms, including Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Mac OS 10.10 or higher, as well as Linux. Heck. It doesn’t even require an external power supply. Sweet! All you need is a USB 3.0 and you are all set. And it promised it won’t suck the life out of your PC. Pengo said its video processor is powerful enough that you do not need a powerful PC to grab lag-free video stream.
Other notable features include supports 4K@60fps 4:4:4 video output (up to 1080p@60fps via USB), captures audio/video HDMI source, support multiple input resolutions, a fan-free noiseless design, ability to record extra audio channels, and separate headphone and microphone jacks. All the aforementioned features are packed inside a minimalistic, all-aluminum enclosure in titanium gray that measures just 65 x 85.6 x 15.2 mm (2.6 x 3.4 x 0.6 inches) and tips the scales at mere 91g (3.2 ounces). You can find Pengo 4K HDMI Grabber on Amazon, priced at $249.99 a pop.
