Video Recording Consoles

Hey guys

Just wondering how would one connect up their game console to a computer and record video footage of the game??

My PC is a few years old now, P4 2.8 and 1gig ram. The video card is a WinFast A340td 128mb with DVI and TV Out. Is it up to the task? I wanted to record some Gamecube/N64 footage.. Just wondering how its done

Cheers

Your computer is good enough to do it... but you need some hardware and software first.

What I use is a pinnacle DC10 plus capture card.

I use this alongside Avid Liqid 7. (This can be used with Pinnacle 8 if you can't afford and expensive program) I capture it into the program with Avid (or pinnacle) and edit it there.

For sound input, I used converters to convert the L and R audio connections to plug into the line in to capture the audio as well.

This seems a bit complicated, but that is the way I do it. Maybe somone else has an easier way of doing it.


PS: Here is something I made in Pinnacle Studio using captured video from my gamecube.
