Weird color range

- Elgato Game Capture series are not supported.It seems there are product-specific initialization issues. You still can try ScreenCapture (Desktop Capture) in WinIkaLog with the bundled softwares, or purchase XSplit premium license. - Though I won't spend my time for Elgato hardwares, looking for someone can develop a workaround. I have a modified version of OBS (on Mac) that can redistribute WiiU image to IkaLog, as a proof of concept. It needs the knowledge of C, Python, basic knowledge of image formats/codecs, and enough experience to modifiy OBS by oneself. Let me know if you are interested in.

Requirements to work with CVCapture:

  • Must have a driver for Windows.
  • The driver must support 32bit applications.
  • Must be operable from OpenCV VideoCapture.

Products for MacOS X

  • These devices should work with IkaLog.py on MacOS X.

  • I'm looking for someone can develop extended version of OBS that allows IkaLog, broadcasting, and recording simultaneously. I have a modified version of OBS (on Mac) that can redistribute WiiU image to IkaLog, as a proof of concept. It needs the knowledge of C, Python, basic knowledge of image formats/codecs, and enough experience to modifiy OBS by oneself. Let me know if you are interested in.

Requirements to work with IkaLog on AVFoundationCapture for Mac:

  • Must have a driver supports AVFoundation.
  • AVFoundationCapture is very early stage of development. Devices not listed on the table above may not work without modifying the code.
