Gameplay Capture

[Glen1992]

Just wondering what people are using to capture there game play i am going to order a Roxio Game Capture HD Pro i think on the 13th does anyone else have this ? if so what do you think of it and if not what are you using

[Daffy]

Order either the Elgato Game Capture HD or the AverMedia C875, the other alternatives are using horribly bad compression techniques that leads to bad quality.

Ah thats sucks both those are a little out of my price range at the minute might have to hold off till i can afford one of those then

Yes, I have the Elgato and the quality is great. But it doesn't matter much anymore because YouTube has reduced processing time and pretty much halved the quality of uploads. So in the past 720p on YouTube looked like 720p on a monitor but now the quality is quite bad. So I would just go for whatever is the best for the latest generation of consoles. I think Avermedia has a newer device, a YouTube comparison is usually best.

Daffy's right. Go for the AverMedia Live Gamer Portable if you have the choice .

[Daffy]

Daffy's right.

So gonna sig' just this part

Please

For the AverMedia C875, is the video stored in the device, or do you need to by an external hard drive? The other AverMedia CC I was going to get had you buy an external to store it all.

Not completely sure as I don't have an Avermedia Trialz but I would recommend the Elgato profusely! It's great with that flashback recordy thingy majiggy 

[Trialz]

I would, but my PC is too far away from my console and i have enough ethernet cables and wires on my floor as it is. Thats why Id really like one. 160 aint bad as long as it doesnt need an external hd. I look into it more though Thans Nitro

[Nitromanic]

I think you'll need an SD card or an External HD to record with the avermedia but don't take my word for it like I said

[Trialz]

Takes an SD card, Now the problem is how big of one should I get? I only have 2gb ones and they are not good enough I dont think.

[Nitromanic]

I'd look at getting at minimum a 32gb one if you want to record properly haha!

I bought that like 1-2years ago, it sucks. Really. Couldn't make work the software since I'm on 7. Get an elgato or avermedia.
