Title: Game capture cards
Post by: Geckco on February 06, 2012, 03:17
Anyone know any good game capture cards under 70$ that are good quality? Game capture cards, is how gameplays of mw3 bf3 other console games get on youtube, or saved on the computer.

you want HD or S video/RCA? Theres around 30€ here USB capture cards which use RCA audio and S video. those are usually bad quality, in youtube worth of like 420p. I dont know is there really HDMI capture cards anywhere.

Well, there are a few products out there, one that is renown for this, the Dazzle Video Recorder.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815144044  <  For HQ

There are a few others but I recommend the Dazzle since I use it. You'll also need some splitters...

That dazzle is fine, I owned it at one time, its usually between SD to HQ

In order to connect it, I suppose you use a HDMI cable to play, but for it to work with the dazzle, you have to use the 3 connectors, Video Left and Right.
