Dazzle Instant DVD Recorder 60Hz AMCap Trick Test - Vampire Rain

*READ THIS. YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.*

Can you see that very thin line of static at the bottom of the screen throughout the whole video? It seems that YouTube somehow did something right for a change, because that line is almost impossible to spot on YT, but the 121MB/65MB file that I get after rendering through WMM has it clearly visible and it is very distracting.

You might be wondering why I tested Vampire Rain of all games instead of Gears of War 2, or something. The reason behind this is, I can get in a good first level without going over ten minutes of having the potential to fuck something up and get killed.

I chose this game because I have finished it a few times and I believe that it is the most underrated game of all time. I can understand why SOME people would find it frustrating, I can understand why SOME people would be slightly discouraged, but the fact that EVERY SINGLE "professional" (I use the word "professional" very loosely here) reviewer is unable to beat the second fucking mission and EVERY SINGLE person who watches the videos from those fucking sellout reviewers are led like sheep right into such incompetence and stupidity, the fact that a SELECT FEW people play through this game and know how fucking intense and fun this game really can be...

...is FUCKING. SICKENING.

This is the same reason that God Hand got a 3/10 from IGN, because the stupid turdfairy playing it was unable to proceed past the first fucking area.

Posting anything negative against this game while looking like you are trying to post your opinion off as fact (eg. "This game sucks.") will score your comment an automatic removal and you a block, regardless whether you're a long-time friend or a newcomer to my channel.

However, posting a comment with a civilised opinion (eg. "I don't like this game because of... *insert reasoning here*...") is perfectly acceptable. If I notice a comment along the lines of this, I will reply to it with my opinion on what you have said. In this case, feel free to respond as much as you like, as long as you are up for a minor debate.

This should help sort out who should and who shouldn't be on my channel in the first place.

I am thinking about getting this but after buying the easycap dc60 I am not too sure about it. The easycap was horrible the videos were very laggy and it could not record 60hz in colour which is what I wanted to do. I wanted to record playthroughs of all kinds of games like ocarina of time and cod and skyrim. I can't afford to get a hd cap card either, otherwise I would have bought the hd pvr because it is so well known and said to be one of the best. Please can you tell me about any problems

@CnAxGaming

I had the same problem with 60Hz games like this. What you may want to try is downloading a free program called AMCap, then before you start recording, open it up, go to Devices and make sure your recording device is checked (it will probably come up with an error message or something when you open it since you'll already have a program using the Easycap, just ignore it if it does). Then, go to Options -> Video Capture Filter and set Video Standard to SECAM_B and hit OK.

That should display your capture preview in colour, and after you start recording, you WILL have to set the Video Standard to SECAM_B again. It's what I had to do to get my Dazzle to record 60Hz games, although I'm not sure if this will even work for the Easycap, but it's well worth a try.

Aw, no commentary?

[TheGameMaster]

@BowWow452

Nah, not for early Dazzle tests, although I do intend to do a playthrough of Vampire Rain at some point.

[christianzen2004]

the only real problem I had with this game is fact that killing Vampires in this game is Effing Impossible

[TheGameMaster]

@christianzen2004

It's entirely possible to kill Nightwalkers with the assault rifle and pistol. Assuming no others are close, get some distance (just enough so the aiming reticle doesn't go green), crouch, aim for the head and fire. When it gets about halfway to you, stand up and backpedal while firing and you should kill it. To kill one Walker, it's taken me at minimum 20 AR shots and 14 pistol shots.

By the way, have you beaten it, and if so do you know about the alt. ending?

[BIGBOSS9545]

If you did this to test quality, its awesomly good

[thesensitivepsycho]

OK, so basically, when I try to use AmCap, I get a large rectangle of static - maybe one-fifth the size of the entire video - at the bottom of the recorded footage. Any help anyone could offer would be appreciated.

[christianzen2004]

@TheGameMaster no I return the game after 2 days of constantly dieing
