As someone who dug up his old Xbox 360, I was so frustrated with my new setup being too advanced, and the Xbox 360 being meant for TV screens with built in speakers, and almost no support for headphones, I found this as a blessing from god, thank you Jose!

Solid guide! I was following another tutorial for setting up my Steam Deck with my laptop as a monitor, but due to being new to OBS I didn't have everything set up right. And because of this, I was getting delayed audio during gameplay and I was very sad. I thought maybe the capture card I got was not powerful enough for games.

I was looking around for a solution until I happened upon this video and it totally made my day! It appeared that I didn't have the "Monitor and Audio" turned on in the settings and used a different option for the audio stream. Anyways, now I can play Dark Souls 3 more comfortably on a bigger screen without getting a TV!

God bless <3

If your confused, the capture card is Basically acting like a webcam but instead of showing your face its emulating a video output as a webcam

When it comes to capture cards, my choice would be the one with the MS2130 chip that can do 60fps at 1080p in YUY2 color format, all while running on real USB 3.0. Most cheap capture cards use the MS2109 chip which is made specifically for USB 2.0, even the ones that fools anyone into thinking that it's using USB 3.0.

Overall, it's a good video. 👍

I'm surprised something like this isn't built into laptops. They could even have an HDMI port the side of the laptop that has a cable on the inside going straight to the screen for reduced input lag.

I have that same laptop. Lenovo IdeaPad gaming 3. It also has a Ryzen 5 5600h, and RTX 3050 graphics. It's a goated laptop and I love using it so much. It's probably the best gaming laptop you can buy RIGHT NOW.
Edit: I have customized it with a vinyl skin on the lid, so it's colorful, and it has my two favorite characters from an animated series I like stuck on it
