Thanks for the information. I also have my ps3, i have a cable that has Composite and S-Video but i realize i have no sound because its in the PVT. anyway around that you know? Thanks again!
I don't have a ps3 so I'm not sure how that would connect. I know there are other videos on YouTube that instruct you how to set up your system using splitter cables so you can hear the sound. The way I do it is the best way but you need seperate speakers to do that using an optical cable! I have the special pioneer surround system built for the 360 but they stopped selling them years ago!
Can you tell me how you have your pvt hooked up to record? i have the device but its confusing when trying to figure out how to hook it up the best way. your way seems very good and would appreciate it if you could tell me your way because it looks great!
I don't use the supplied Pinnacle cables or any seperately purchased cables!
To do what I do you need a HDTV and a seperate speaker system using either HDMI or optical!
I merely plug the yellow (video), red & white (audio) from my 360's component cable into the PVT then I display the picture on my screen using the green, blue and red left over parts of the component cable. This means you play in standard def on your TV and listen to the sound through your speakers!
Yes, this was recorded on the medium recording mode. I can't quite decypher what the best quality setting could be used for as everything I have attempted with it comes out jittery upon playback.
It may be odd seeing COD4 but that was the COD game of that time :p
Don't record using the highest quality mode on the PVT for games as the fast moving action tends to cause a glitching. The middle quality option is perfectly fine for recording good quality footage!
i thing that your problem with the glitching is your Jacks and cables... but you could make a video with the better Quality just to show us that is it like...
Yeah. It records the sound directly from my xbox to the device using the red and white cables and I have sound playing through my surround dound system which is connected to my 360 via the optical cable!

Yeah the HD PVR records in better quality. However, I have heard and seen that if you render the footage captured with the pinnacle in Sony Vegas 8 then you can output that to youtube's HD resolution with excellent results!
is this on good, better, or best quality?

was this was recorded in medium quality? other than the frame skips (more often than i would like) it seems to give decent recording
