AVerMedia Live Gamer Ultra 2.1

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A genuinely useful onboard-encoder pick for single-PC streamers doing HDR console capture, though it costs more than AVerMedia's simpler externals.

Blackmagic Design Web Presenter

8 / 10 Expert Rating

Excellent for professional two-camera presenting setups that need to output as a plain webcam.
