Maybe it is in "Hardware -> Display and Monitor -> Displays"

Originally I had a Pluggable NIX USB3 HDMI capture device which was very compatible but had its issues. Honestly though there were plenty of workarounds to the issues and I'd still be using it if I hadn't got the HD60 S+ on sale.

With these "plug-and-play" (UVC) streaming devices, do you need to muck around too much, or do you just select them as a video / sound input source in OBS Studio?

they are also heavy in price but make up for it in performance

*edit* to be fair they do have kernel module support and some support articles
but their firmware blobs only have windows & macosx downloads.
by the number of streamers with mixed reviews and some have completely sworn off elgato capture cards because of quality and reliability
so yeah i cant really recommend anything. only capturing i do is from a laserdisc rca to hdmi!

The pluggable NIX I had to mess with a lot to get it set up right. The elgato was pretty much plug it in and select it as a video device on OBS.

Umm I use a magewell USB HDMI capture(Magewell USB Capture HDMI+)(they even mention linux support on their website) - it shows up as a UVC device - no drivers needed. I had some issues with it - as in it only worked reliably on a base USB 3.0 port - 3.1 and higher would cause random lockups of the capture(replug)(solved it with getting a usb 3.0 pcie controller card).
I've since switched to a black magic PCIE based capture device that does need their libraries but it works fine with obs. I still use the magewell one as well.

The Blackmagick hardware does seem to have great Linux support at least!
