This could also just be with the ezcap172 using OBS Studio and not using their ArcSoft Software. Tearing for this device was definitely visible. I did see some quality discrepancies that I wasn’t too impressed with. I was able to record it through OBS Studio without any hiccups. Plugging it in was no issues the driver was able to be seen It worked horribly for a previous review and now all of a sudden it decided to work perfectly. Next on the list was the ezcap 172 and this one I don’t get. This one is one of my favorites I seem to use for quite a few experiments that I perform, but – generally on my Windows 8.1 PC.Īnd that’s where I had a problem, the goal is to have the device work with free video capture software and I am constantly using it through other software.Ĭonnection was through OBS Studio and recording quality was fine, but it appeared to have mild tearing which doesn’t show up using its own ArcSoft ShowBiz software or through Magix. At the time I bought the device, I had bought it under the name of ezcap 172.
