looking good. the "music" is a little distracting, but the video is crisp and clear. I'll have to ask what hardware he's using to get it that nice

Looks to me like a remade Call of Juarez.

Just a few notes.

Technically, the only requirements for using this card are Hard Drive write speed and Hard Drive space.

To record in:

Compressed:

480i: 5.1 MB/s write speed

720p 60fps: 5 MB\s

1080i 60fps: 13.1 MB\s

Uncompressed:

480i: ~20 MB\s

720p 60fps ~100 MB\s

1080i 60 fps ~120 MB\s

There is very little quality difference between uncompressed video and compressed. You can download a program like HD Tach or HD Tune to benchmark your hard drive and find your average write speed. Mine on my Terabyte I bought last winter was about 70-80 MB\s. The 350Gig I bought several years ago was in the 50s.

The video I recorded was recorded in 720p compressed. 10 minutes of gameplay at 720p compressed is about 3.5 GB. An hour was about 17 GBs. Takes up lots of space.

Using Sony Vegas or Virtualdub, you can re-encode the video, with some loss in quality, so you aren't uploading Gigabytes to youtube. The video above was 900 megs. Took 3 hours to upload on our home connection. I am going to upload another tomorrow. I was able to get the filesize down to 500 megs, with very little drop in quality. Actually, the quality might be better since I made a motion blur mistake while rendering the video above in Vegas.

Re-encoding the video is where your other computer parts come into play, mainly your CPU and RAM. It took my computer 1 hour to render both videos. Here are my specs.

CPU: E8500 Overclocked to 3.8GHZ

2 Gigs of RAM at DDR2 800

Worse specs than that will take longer to render, better, less time. 4 Gigs of RAM probably helps a ton.

The Blackmagic was $180 off of Amazon. PS3 component cables $20.

If you have to look that much into a player they are not worth the headache any UF clan will tell you that period

Sometimes you meet the person after the fact. How could you tell then? This might be a way.

When i vanish from the leadeboards its not for minutes though, for example i play a domination match, i go say 47-13, i check my leaderboard and i go up like 100 spots, i leave it and back in again, im not there, do it again, im there. It happens sometimes, not all the time, there are times the leaderboards are just messed up and they wont load.

He has been missing for 7 days and counting.

i haven't read it yet, i think i'll wait til the nxt one comes out and that way i have 2 new books to read after I re-read all the ones before (i go thru them very fast, i'm a tested speed reader). I did hear that he didn't do Mat justice, but that Mat has a larger role in the next one, so we'll see

I read 1-12, then started again recently. On book 5 right now.

Another thing i dont usually hear about it either, most people dont care about the leaderboards anymore because of the hack, but i do recall hearing here and there people i know say "where i go? im not in the leaderboard anymore"

I'd wager that every single person that this has happened to just "happens" to be 10th, level 70.
