How to stream Switch without capture card Reddit

First, I recommend using OBS over Streamlabs. Despite that whole Streamlabs controversy having blown over, I just really like OBS's power user settings to give more control.

But more than that, the second reason I'd use OBS over Streamlabs is the fact that I use my OBS to play MY Nintendo Switch too. And I use it BECAUSE of the fantastic low latency.

Just project your preview window and you'll have a nice playing experience that you can even Alt-Tab and it won't interrupt the full-screen projection.

UsbStream has been renamed to SysDVR-Client, if you have the old version on your pc, delete it before extracting the new zip.

RTSP Streaming has been implemented in both SysDVR and SysDVR-Client, this implies the following:

Audio and video are finally properly synchronized.

Random stream desynchronization (lag) should be finally solved, it can still happen depending on the player and connection stability but pausing and unpausing the stream is enough to fix it.

Native support for many more players and other software such as OBS, live streaming from SysDVR has never been easier.

As now streaming requires a single player instance the GoLive feature on discord works as expected.

Unfortunately due to RTSP caching latency may have slightly increased, some players allow to disable it but not all, in the end is a stability/synchronization vs delay compromise (if you prefer less delay most of the previous modes are still available but not recommended)

While RTSP works fine mostly, some players like vlc don't really play nice with it, mpv is still the recommended player

The following streaming modes have been added:

Direct RTSP from SysDVR : it's possible to connect a player to the switch in the local network without any extra setup. This means you don't even need SysDVR-client, just type your switch ip address in mpv on your phone/pc and you're good to go !

TCP Bridge : video and audio data is sent via network to SysDVR-Client and it's relayed over RTSP (this has a few advantages over Direct RTSP as explained in the guide)

RTSP mode from USB : video and audio data are sent over USB and streamed via RTSP on the local pc

The old TCP streaming mode has been removed in favor of TCP bridge, it had major synchronization issues, in case you still need it it's still available in older versions.

Simple answer: no. The switch doesn’t have the capability for it. Probably going to have to opt for an el gato or setup a really good tri-pod to TV setup some how.

If you're looking for a cheap way to capture your Switch, I recommend this 30 dollar device. It's USB2.0 so it is limited to 720p@60fps or 1080p@30fps, but it works just as intended for my personal streaming/recording needs. I bought it on a whim and it turned out surprisingly solid.
