It's just that it's very time consuming and I'm afraid I don't have that much freetime on my hands - just beeing realistic here. This is not because I'm not believing in myself or it's impossible. I'm sorry for letting you guys wait and disappoint you, but I'm afraid I cannot make it happen. You can expect news about the Kickstarter project and during the past days, I've read about PCIe reverse-engineering and driver development and of course the HD60 Pro itself. I have lots of time on my hands over the weekend. I'm doing this for the community and I need your support. Lots of people are asking for it, therefore, I've decided to start a Kickstarter campaign to give you guys this opportunity.

That beeing said, I have gained alot of experience in the process of reverse engineering the Elgato GCHD and I am sure, that I'm able to get the HD60 working under Linux aswell. The driver is extremely low-level and very specialized, therefore, there is no way for me to get the current driver working with the HD60, without having one for reverse engineering. The HD60 will need to be worked on from scratch, as a different hardware is used and different features are offered. If you change a single line of code, weird colors show up or the driver completely stops working. Please note, that not even the new revision Elgato Game Capture HDs (non-HD60) are working with this driver, eventhough the differences are marginal.Ĭurrently, nearly 10k lines of code are needed, to set up the device (I'm sure, I can cut it down / refactor lots of parts, but ye, it's currently 10k). The HD60 is a completely different device and therefore currently not supported by this driver.
