EOS R7 Does EVF go blank when connected to a video capture card?

Hello! I was wondering if i buy a Micro HDMI to HDMI wire with a video capture card and connect it to my mac, would the EVF turn blank when i connect it? I am planning on taking photos of an airshow this weekend and hoping to get the behind the scenes of photographing the airshow. Thanks!!

RY2,

Check your manual and see if it addresses something called "HDMI Info disp". It may be in the section under shooting movies.

I have a T8i, and it's in the menu settings.
