messing around with capture cards was the worst part of the process for me. I wasted hours of time fiddling with cards that never would have worked anyway. That was before I starting asking around the forum, which I should have done much earlier. I promise it gets better after this part.

I think there is a recommended list on here, and I think the Mirabox is on that list, which I bought on amazon for maybe $25.

From my experience I would avoid the cheaper USB sticks completely.

I am using a Pi 3A+

These loop-out grabbers don't support CEC, are USB 2.0, are poor quality, and no hardware brightness, contrast, saturation and hue control.

I have a RULLZ here for testing.
