What the product is

The KEHIPI YC-Z52 is a compact HDMI-to-USB 3.0 video capture device that accepts a 4K 60 Hz input signal and delivers a 1080p 60 fps stream to a computer. It draws power from the USB port, requires no driver installation and works with Windows, Linux, macOS and Android. The aluminium-alloy shell measures 2.18 in by .92 in by .42 in and weighs about 30 grams, making it easy to carry for mobile productions.

Who it suits and who should look elsewhere

Streamers, educators and gamers who need to bring an HDMI source such as a camera, console or set-top box into OBS, Zoom or VLC will find the plug-and-play workflow straightforward. Users who must record or stream at the source's native 4K resolution, or who require multiple simultaneous HDMI inputs, will need a different capture solution.

The specification that decides fit

The key constraint is the maximum output resolution of 1920×1080 at 60 Hz despite a 3840×2160 at 60 Hz input capability; if your workflow demands 4K capture, this device will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

What are the exact dimensions of the YC-Z52 so I can check if it fits behind my laptop?

The capture card measures 2.18 in long, 0.92 in wide and 0.42 in thick, making it small enough to tuck behind most laptops.

Do I need to install any driver software before connecting the HDMI and USB 3.0 cables?

No driver installation is required; simply connect the HDMI source to the input and the USB 3.0 output to the computer for immediate recognition.

Will the aluminium alloy casing need any thermal paste or fan cleaning over time?

The passive aluminium shell dissipates heat without fans or thermal paste, so no internal cleaning or re-pasting is ever needed.
