    I ordered this from Amazon. It’ll be here tomorrow. Planning to hook the HDMI cable from my Roku and put it in this device and then take the component ends and plug them into my Hauppauge HD PVR 2 Gaming Edition. Thing is I’m not sure how the audio is supposed to travel. My Capture device does have a digital audio input and so does my PC but my Roku I don’t think has one.

  2. The HDMI cable carries audio as well as video. The converter outputs stereo audio (two cables, red, white) as well as component video (three cables, red, green, blue). Your PVR2 has inputs (via a pigtail adapter) for all five of those.

    Here is what my Hauppauge looks like that I put into my Hauppauge.

    Here’s the adapter I ordered to convert HDMI to component.

    I’m just confused when it comes to this stuff. I’m wanting to pull the audio and video from my source into these devices and have them show up on my capture program so that I can record both audio and video. I am just very confused.

  4. Connect the outputs of one device to the corresponding input of the next. Outputs are where signals come out of a device. Inputs are where signals go into a device. It's a simple as that.

    That much I understand but I’m still rather confused. I’m sorry. I know I’m annoying.

    Im almost starting to wonder if the issues I’m experiencing are HDMI Cable related. None of these issues started until I was forced to start connecting my capture device via HDMI. I have been told to try swap out my HDMI cables. I don’t have a lot of them. I do however wonder if that’s the issue. I know they make 2.1 and 2.2 HDMI’s now. My capture device is older. I’m wondering if maybe some of the HDMI’s are just too new where as the equipment is older. Maybe it doesn’t matter. 🤷🏻*♂️

    It's as easy as shown below, What problems are you having with the setup? any more details? I would suggest get a HDMI capture device and forget about analog component and audio, You will have to get one of those HDMI strippers to bypass HDCP protection, and it could be your problem too with your actual setup.

    Yeah I’m starting to be curious about that too. Very well could be the Splitter I have. It does strip HDCP but Maybe doesn't work all that well.

    I’m trying HDMI again. I don’t understand why after 2 hours or so the video is very choppy. I swapped out what I think is a newer HDMI cable for an older one. Don’t know if it will help or not. I’ve been told to try different HDMI cables but the thing is, I don’t know what ones to replace and what ones to not replace. I have some of them but not a ton. I’ve been buying them for years as my devices have required them. I’ve mainly only captured via component cables though. Just recently I had no choice but to start capturing with HDMI. Maybe my graphics card needs replacing?
