   Video Capturing
  Hi guys I am trying to figure out how to capture video off my Playstation 3 and record it on my computer. I have researched a bit but I cannot seem to find any answers. Anyway I was wondering if you guys could tell me if my graphics card could video capture. It is an ATI radeon 4650 1G. Also if it can't can you recommend anything that would help me capture video? Thanks alot!   
  From your other thread:Quote:Original post by Joseph LeoThe Hauppauge HD-PVR allows you to record up to 1080i resolution from RCA (Yellow - Red - White) as well as Component (Red - Green - Blue - Red - White). I think that would be one of the best choices if you are concerned about resolution. Hauppauge makes cheaper products as well but they only record in 480 resolution. But again that's only if resolution is a concern to you.You'll have to get a cable or box that converts HDMI to Component (better than RCA) or find a capture card that accepts HDMI input as that's the only way to get video off your PS3.The other alternative and slightly more roundabout way is to simply record the video off your TV onto DVD and then rip the DVD onto your computer[edit] I just remembered that the capture card may not be the best option, since they usually have a built-in buffer for DVR purposes that you can't disable (at least Hauppage does, I have one of their cards). This means that all video sent through the card will be delayed by 2-3 seconds at least.Perhaps you should see if you can find a way to convert HDMI to S-video, since most graphics cards have an S-video input, then you can plug the sound into your audio card's input and record off Fraps or some similar program.   ;  Can't you split display cable to mirror on two display devices? Then you don't need to worry about the lag on the card, just play on your TV, and off load to the computer for recording purposes?   ;  Possible, but may not be worth the extra $$$
