This wonderful little device makes it possible for you to connect the console to a laptop display for playing games.<br \/>\nBut not just any laptop, a USB-C laptop. These days, a number of laptops may only carry USB-C ports. Some may also have USB-A ports, but no HDMI in port. In fact it\u2019s probably harder to find a laptop with an HDMI in port than you might think. And that\u2019s where this device comes in handy.<br \/>\nThe Genki ShadowCast is the latest device from Human Things that was successfully crowdfunded. Following the success of devices like the ConvertDock. It also just went on sale starting today.<br \/>\nWhile this allows you to use the laptop screen to play games, it also works as a capture card. Which makes this perfect for anyone that wants an affordable solution for capturing gameplay footage for video uploads. And since everything happens on a laptop you should be able to use the webcam for streaming. Or you could just connect a DSLR and use that instead.<br \/>\nThe Genki ShadowCast works with more than just the PS5<br \/>\nNot everyone has a PS5 just yet. But, maybe you\u2019ve got a PS4, an Xbox One, Xbox Series X \/ S, or even a Nintendo Switch. The ShadowCast will work with any of those devices for the same purpose. It even works with other HDMI devices.<br \/>\nMuch like the ConvertDock, the ShadowCast is a small device. It has an HDMI plug on one end, and a USB-C port on the other. So all you have to do is plug the HDMI into your console or device, then plug a USB-C to USB-C cable into the other end, and connect it to your laptop\u2019s USB-C port.<br \/>\nYou don\u2019t need external power for this to work, but there are some things to make note of. The ShadowCast does support 4k video source input from consoles, but the output is only up to 1080p. 1080p resolution should be just fine for most people, but if you\u2019re expecting to get 4K from your PS5 while using this, you\u2019ll be sorely disappointed.<br \/>\nYou can pick up the ShadowCast in two different variations. One with a USB-C to USB-A adaptor, which costs $49.99. Or one without that adaptor which drops the price to $44.99. If your laptop doesn\u2019t have any USB-A ports, then you can go for the less expensive option.<br \/>\nGenki ShadowCast<br \/>\nThe post This Cool Little Device Lets You Play PS5 Games On Your Laptop appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Genki-ShadowCast-PS5-Nintendo-Switch-Xbox-Series-X.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"913\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you ever find yourself in a position where you can\u2019t play your PS5 on a larger screen or monitor, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":7507,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7506","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bez-kategorii"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7506","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7506"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7506\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7508,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7506\/revisions\/7508"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7507"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7506"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7506"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
