This method works great with old iPhones using a cheap $20 lightning to HDMI adapter, and the CameraVision app. Also, if you want a detailed technical review of this capture card, you can check out my blog post:

- wlesieutre 6y agoHow does this setup perform for latency? You have a phone app displaying the camera input, iOS compressing that video stream to send it out over Lightning, the Lightning-to-HDMI dongle decoding that stream to HDMI, then HDMI pulled in on the capture card. If you run it side-by-side with a real webcam, can you notice that the stream is out of sync at all?
- KMnO4 6y agoFWIW, out of sync video isn’t too much of an issue for video calls. I’ve worked the past 8 months with 800-1200ms latency on video (satellite) and 25-50ms latency on voice (VoLTE) combined. The only issue is when someone is annotating while sharing their screen and moves too quickly.

- guiambros 6y agoCoincidentally I just got one to use as a console for a Raspberry Pi. It works well, but bear in mind it introduces a ~650ms lag, so anything interactive (e.g. typing on a keyboard) becomes noticeable. But for $13 you can't expect much more. Even a $200 Elgato HD60 S+ has 280ms lag, so 15x lower cost for half performance seems a good deal.
