I read a previous post about potentially sending VIDEO and AUDIO out from a patch through the jit.qt.

 object. That post was concluded saying HDMI output was treated as an additional display snd the VIDEOOUT object wasn't necessary. In my case, I would like to use the ELGATO CAPTURE CARD to bring that signal into the WINDOWS machine for recording in OBS. My question is how can I send video out via the HDMI port of my MACBOOK PRO? Is there any potential pitfalls in this process I should know before purchasing the ELGATO?

- small device / portable
- no need for a computer 
- handling is simple
- analog/digital audio in/out 

Thanks for your input but way to expensive.

This is a question for the makers of your capture card. In theory you plug your display output of your computer into the card and it acts as a separate output device (same as any monitor or projector).
