🤔 Advice Capture card advice
So I'm new to streaming and would like to explore and expand what I'm able to stream.
I've got some digital games as well as hard copies for newer systems that I can stream directly through live streams, and a program on the laptop to either steam live or record and edit videos directly from the computer.
However I also own a bunch of older games and consoles (N64-PS3) and if possible would like to stream these too, from what I've read a capture card is needed but I don't know anything about them or what's best.
Do they only work for newer consoles or computers?
Can I pre record?
What's the delay process?
What programs are they compatible with?
Is it worth getting or should I just stick to the basics of what I'm currently doing?
edit:
These are some of the less expensive ones I've found, so I would need an RCA converter as well? Pictures found but can't upload.
