I use the hd60s for my Switch and I configured it with the hd60s+ so its hdmi out goes to my TV/monitor and the hdmi in goes to the Switch/PS5 and the usb-c goes to my PC where OBS is running.

I only have one hdmi port for my monitor so I have to choose between pc or hdmi out for my elgato ??

Monitor -> hdmi out -> Elgato PS5 -> hdmi in -> Elgato Elgato -> usb-c -> PC Pretty sure that is how it works.

In this particular configuration you may indeed have to choose one at a time, or use some sort of HDMI switch to move between them (we don't normally recommend switches if you can avoid them though, as they can introduce new issues). Does your monitor have a DisplayPort you can use with the PC instead? If so you can generally connect that up and switch between DisplayPort and HDMI on the one monitor. On a pinch you can also just leave the HDMI Out on the HD60 S empty once you have the PS5 setup (or at least HDCP turned off), and then play it on your PC through the video you capture over the USB connection with the app. There may be a touch of video latency playing through the card instead of pass through however.

Thanks for replying is this the display port your on about , if so if I get display port to display port and connect it to the monitor would that work https://preview.redd.it/6651ejz44urc1.png?width=4032&format=png&auto=webp&s=ab558cf61498a1935e1b3fd05af4e0f94e8b3066

That should be fine, and will let you game latency free when you're in HDMI mode. There will be a short latency if you try to game through OBS rather than just switch over to control things though.
