Anyone got any recomendations. I know I want a HD card preferbly. I was looking at the usb sticks TBH. I also don’t wanna go to mad with money on hardware, but the software can cost whatever cos I will just get a “trial” version. I want it for recording some battlefield 3 stuff really. I know there are tons of BF3 people on you tube, but I would just like to record me and my mates epic MCOM arms/deffends. Advanced thanks for you inputs.
Er just be advised that there might be some ‘delayish’/low framerate when recording if you have a slow pc. Specially when recording it gets worse as your pc has to compress it at the same time(though I guess you could record it at no compression and compress it later on?). Atleast thats what happened with my dad’s pc + tv card thingy.
use fraps if u just wanna record games, but like joe said …. it’ll probably cut ur fps in half. If u planning on using ur laptop it’ss not handle it (i thought u played on consol anyway?)

Yeah, he means he wants to record what he sees on the tv whilst playing xbox. I guess.

Shhhhh, don’t tell everyone!
will this console output on both HDMI and composite AV/S-video at the same time and do you know which video standard it uses? I know we are supposed to be PAL/25i/50p here but there is a lot of 30fps kit such as cheap cameras. Once you start stuffing this into analogue video kit and then trying to get it into digital video you get into a pickle. It sort of works but you get a jumpy picture or lines in it or other unpleasantness (until your hardware and software are correctly in sync).

I see. Well I don’t use a HDMI lead I use a composite HD cable. Like the four wires green blue red etc. Hardly anything I play runs at anything higher than 40fps,(I know battlefield 3 on console is only 30fps where as PC is 60fps. I have seen some peoples videos on youtube and the gaps in the frames are awfull. They also have shit loads of screen tearing going on which I would like to avoid, but again money is a key factor.
…
For editing software use Adobe After Effects (pirate is your bay) its undoubfuly one of the best softwares for editing out there.
