I've used this powered splitter for my consoles so it's worth checking out: HDMI Splitter 2 Way Hdmi Splitter 1 in 2 out 1080P Full HD for 3D HDTV SKY HD PS4 Xbox360 Elite Virgin + Blu-ray Player DVD HD Camcorder HTPC Laptop Satellite https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00LM4IJ60/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_31QRAb66SC3Y1
As for converting to vga, I use something similar to this: Active HDMI to VGA Adapter with Audio, Benfei HDMI to VGA Converter Gold-Plated Cord with Audio for Laptop, XBox 360 One, PS4 PS3 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01KLKQN9U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_k5QRAbJNE3GC5
I've Jerry rigged enough setups to know the hassle, hopefully these can help :-)
Shouldn't be that hard to find. I have this brand and mine works fine for PS3 capture. If it doesn't, return it and try a different one.
Okay, so I've had a quick look and it seems like this is just a normal set up.
PS4 -> HDMI Splitter (here's a cheap one)
HDMI Splitter Output 1 -> Blackmagic Intensity
HDMI Splitter Output 2 -> Your Monitor / TV
Blackmagic Intensity plugs into your PC as normal, and your stream from there.
You'll need 2 Monitors/TV's (one for the PC and one for the PS4)
You'll also need 3 HDMI cables.
Let me know if you have any issues.
Not sure if you are in the UK but I got this as I wanted a splitter to go to my capture card and have a direct input to the monitor to ensure the picture quality was good. In other words it is a one in two out splitter. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00LM4IJ60/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The Helo sounds a bit pricy for me for sure, lol.
The USB point worries me. Here's what Device Manager has to say since I struggled with physically discerning them on my laptop.
I won't be doing any facecam stuff so not concerned about that (nor would I try to stream by pointing a camera at the TV :P)
>All the other Capture devices can be found in between $10-$40 bucks on Amazon. (Retro Consoles)
Very good to know, any specific recommendations there?
> You get no lag with the Elgato card during pass-through viewing, but if you do experience some lag, just split your HDMI Output that leads to your Elgato, and send the split to your TV.
Yeah, I don't tend to notice lag it seems. Still I just wanted to try and be sure about that. Would I be looking for something like this?

This is what I use, works like a charm.
I use this one and it works great I can see picture on my tv and my monitor at the same time no lag at all
HDMI Splitter
I have the same setup and have not noticed any input lag or reduced image quality. I bought this splitter and has worked perfectly for me.
The only annoyance is that you have to manually tell the PS4 to use the full RGB range when playing on the monitor and limited when on the TV.
