Recording Game Play

[CpDude05]

i need to find a cheap but good way to record game play. I don't really need the sound of the game, but it would be good to at least get video. I don't want to spend anything more then 100 dollars. Any help would be great. If you recommend a product, could you please give me a link to were i can look in to it. thanks

Do what my clan leader does get your video camera and recored your tv like that.

Try an external capture card such as Dazzle DVD recorder. This is what I use and a few other guys in iLL use this and are quite happy with it. It runs for about $50...

With this you'll also need a distribution amplifier to split the connection. One to your computer and one to your TV/Sound system. I got mine for $50 but here's one for around $20. Enjoy.

When I bought mine they were only like 4 bucks and even at that time the most I seen go for was 25 bucks. I can't believe the price jump on these.

 

If you look around and search "Gamebridge" you may come across one for less than 20 bucks.

 

After you buy it you will need to buy some other cables to hook it up to your PS3/Xbox and they enhance the video quality also.

This is what I use:

Simple, not a load of knowledge needed to run it, and since it's connection to your comp by USB, you can pretty much put it anywhere if your cable is long enough

damn. my cable is definitely thick enough, at least.

is it all analog or do they have atleast a componet one? hdmi?

I point my video camera at the tv screen and I'd wager that my video is about as good, if not better, than what most guys get with their video capture cards.
