[m3talh3ad1994]

@BethsoftTrailers Fallout 3 is 100x better.

[runeman464]

@m3talh3ad1994

*Sigh*

Pay better attention to his comments. Don't bag on a comment mentioning Fallout NV before you read whether it's saying that NV is awesome or not.

[krazykyuubilv2]

@BethsoftTrailers that's fallout 3, he's playing broken steel DLC i believe

[smorinator]

I have a hdmi cable I don't use the composite cables any more. Can I use easy cap with it

[SOAPYL96A1]

@smorinator nope you will never record with a hdmi cable until the next hapauge comes out its a plain hdmi passtrought u need the cables

[LivestPhenom]

Thx for the vid.. Helped me out a lot

[LinksGamingHammerBro]

PLZ respond: Can we use any systems cause I just wanna record my Wii, 360, and Gamecube

[r3b3link]

@LinksGamingHammerBro As long as the system has Component Cables then Yes (not sure if Gamecube does, but Wii does and if I'm not mistaken you can play Gamecube games on Wii).

[japballin808]

[Tavesta]

Big Booty Bitches :o

[118windsor]

hi, ive been looking for a cap card for ages, and im look for a cap card to record S-video and play in s-video, are there s-video capture cards like dazzle and easy cap but dont need slitters?

[ryowatanabi]

ok this is what i have....

--a computer

--a console

--cable with red and white on 1 end and green on the other end(but this is audio only...)

--a cable with red, yellow, and white(the ones you insert) at both ends

--a cable with yellow and white (inserts) on 1 end and a jack on the other end, the size of a headphone jack.

--thats all....can i do it????

[r3b3link]

@ryowatanabi you still need a capture card. Sounds like you have all the cables though.

[ryowatanabi]

@r3b3link ok...like a dazzle or something?? well...i think ill just stick with my direct audio...thanx anywayz

[baxterville3000]

I have the same computer

[brentm204]

hey what do u use to hook up u xbox to ur pc

[GermanMan2084]

@brentm204 if you buy what he says to buy, it all comes with it

[ElomotoGuy]

looks like fallout

[lilfenso]

It is.

[lukenuke75]

i can tell you you do not need the y splitters if you have a tv with a RCA input and output if you do not have input and output buy the y splitters. I am basicly saying if you do not have 3 red white yellow slots buy the splitters

[pressf2forl33tness]

is a GeForce 7000M with an integrated ramdac ok?

[Tuiniuaa]

how did connect ur xbox 360 to ur comp? and do u know how to connect ur xbox 360 to a lap top then?

[drockftw]

I think you can use a simple ethernet cable...

[herps4life]

@Tuiniuaa im only replying to you cuz i cant stand stupid people if you listened to the video or the others you would know, and have fun rendering on a laptop i use a quad core, 8 gb ram, 1 gb graphics card for my hd and its still slow i highly doubt your computer laptop is better than that

[addii578]

hey i got a capture card and i threw the box away i need a serial number to finish the installation for the disc software but i dont have one cuz i threw the box away it says its on the disc but its not so i was wondering if anyone could help

[ClankyMichael]

what did you buy easy cap

[addii578]

no i bought a dazzle but i threw my serial code away by accident

[ClankyMichael]

i have easy cap can't do anything

[bubzuru]

i can help

message m if you still need the serial number

[heartaman2]

@addii578 what capture card and try searching google for a crack

[xparkyx]

if u hav a hdtv do u need all the cables?

[r3b3link]

depends on what device you end up getting. if you have HD I recommend getting a Hava unit or Hauppauge otherwise you'll need to play in SD while recording

[jaidon13]

@r3b3link What is SD?

[r3b3link]

@jaidon13 Standard Definition

[tehL4N]

My computer has a relatively good graphics card, but the problem for me is the ram which is only 2g, i lagg a lot with fraps, what do you suggest I use ? All I need is video capture, nothing special and so it doesnt take up too much processing so i don't lagg and it doesnt affect my gameplay.

[r3b3link]

Depends, are you going to be doing PC capturing or Console video capturing?

[tehL4N]

PC capturing. Mostly FPS games so Lagg is crucial! I know that Fraps lags my computer, takes up a lot and im talking a lot of my processing.

[r3b3link]

in the description there are 2 other PC recording devices. u try those?

[GusDaBus808]

dude wat if you have a MacBook Pro Macbook??? wat is the best for macs???

[yourselff900]

there is a dazzle made for macs for 100 bucks

[juston80]

what about a external hard drive?

[r3b3link]

that works especially well for some cards like the Hava.

[lotro8]

what's the game he's playng???it looks cool

[juston80]

fall out hree with up date maps

[fifthgenerationgamer]

I want to record games from the N64 can I do that?

[r3b3link]

As long as the connectors are the RCA cables (red, white, yellow or s-video). Then yes, it'll work.

[wiimaster7275]

lol why would you want to record videos for N64 thats like so 2 gens ago... like omg noob but nvm thanks for the vid ya shananigan.

[fifthgenerationgamer]

hence the name fifthgenerationgamer

[armo619]

does it work for a labtop?

[r3b3link]

Yes, but check ur specs with the product you plan to get. I had a laptop with my Hauppauge and it worked and rendered just fine.

[armo619]

ok. thats all i need to know. thanx!!

[Kesware5719]

@stinkyringpeice

Thats the Dazzle problem because the Dazzle (all of them) cant record in 720 or 1080i (HD), its a normal high quality capture card but not an HD Capture Card. I don't know enough about this problem r3b3link can tell you more about this.

And dude the 3 RC...Cables doesn't cost 0.24 bucks....thats really new for me oh and you could put that in your video that you must have these things to get a Dazzle running:

Windows XP/Vista/7,Pentium - 1.4 GHz - RAM 512 MB - HDD 1 GB,Sound Card

[r3b3link]

$0.24 is 24 cents. And yeah, i'm not an expert in Dazzle setups, but you're not going to capture in 720p or 1080i. However there is a guy who figured out how to PLAY in HD while he's recording in SD. It's in the description. And thanks for the Dazzle min requirements.

[r3b3link]

My bad, it's in the Part 2 description box, not this one.

[McHaleMega]

would sticking a usb cord hooked to a camera pluged into a ps2

[stinkyringpeice]

wen i used dazzle for my ps3 i done the spliiter thing my screen resuloution went down to 520 i want it to stay to 720 or 1080i how can i do this?

[PandaStarProduction]

awesome
