This guide will allow you to use your Elgato 4K60 Capture Card on NixOS through a virtualised copy of Windows.
Prerequisites Elgato 4K60 Pro PCI Capture Card. Must be in a PCI lane that is grouped separately. Read more here. Windows ISO with a version that supports Elgato’s 4K Capture Utility. Installation Install the following packages. I use home-manager for this.
spice spice-gtk spice-protocol virt-manager virt-viewer win-spice win-virtio Set the following settings in your NixOS configuration.
By following the steps below you should be able to “proxy” requests from an external server, such as a VPS, to an internal server using WireGuard while retaining the original source IP address. I am personally using this to connect to a Minecraft server under a Pterodactyl Wing on my home server using my VPS’s IP address.
On Server Open the port for WireGuard (51820, UDP) on your NSG or firewall if you have one.
Recently while trawling Facebook Marketplace I came across someone selling an Olympus Pen EE-2 alongside some other items. I’ve been wanting a half-frame camera for a while so I thought, “why not”, and bought it.
Once it arrived I was relieved to learn that it was still in amazing shape, with no scratches on the body and only minor marks on the plastic. Of course it remained uncertain as to whether the camera was still in good working order mechanically, but this was a good start.
