Here's the Tutorial on El Gato Game Capture Windows - Turning Stream Command On or Off- What to do

The control to turn on Stream Command is in the Preferences.

Go to the Capture tab, and check the "Enable Stream Command" option.



Please Note:

When Stream Command is on, then you can use Image and Webcam overlays, along with the gameplay video stream.

When Stream Command is off, you can still stream gameplay video, but without the use of Image or Webcam overlays.

Windows - Video Encoding and Stream Command

If Stream Command is turned on, then software transcoding will be used. That will take up more resources than if you stream with Stream Command turned off.

When Stream Command is turned off in the Preferences, then hardware transcoding will be active. That will use less resources.

Version 2.1 of Elgato Game Capture HD for Windows contains Hardware Accelerated Encoding options that can be used for Stream Command.
