im recording video games and i have lines going through my screen what shuold i do

[zollotech]

@CoDxMonSTeR25 nothing you can do if using a camera. If you have a 720P or 1080P tv make sure it is on one of those settings. 1080i is interlaced and you will see lines. Otherwise you need to get something to capture the signal directly from the xbox

why is it all jittery? does it record in low fps?

[zollotech]

@mastax1234 it depends on your processor. In this case it is running on a core 2 duo 2.0Ghz with 4GB ddr3 ram so it should be fine, but was slow I think maybe due to screen recording at the same time?

Hello there,

I was thinking to buy this to record my lectures.

I was actually considering a HD portable such as FLIP, But then i have 100+ hours of recording to do.

The bitrate on the FLIP was 8mbps and thats way too much comes to 4gb for 1 hour recording.

Could you please tell me what the size of the file would be for 1 hour?

thanks

@majorinc2 If you want HD 4GB per hour is not much raw footage wise. You can always compress them and make them much smaller. My RAW files are about 4-6GB for 5-10 minutes. I compress them down to about 250MB. I think the flip is a great choice.
