Daaamn, so you can just land it on the Maze Bank building whenever you want? Don't think I could land it there in a hundred years
I'd be interested in watching any race you've got good times on

Me neither. I thought you were going to get it for a second. I was going to quit flying if you made it  They're good quality vids btw, I've seen some terrible first time vids. Ohhh, I'd also be interested in watching crew stuff like the King Kong thing |

Roxio HD pro...its editing abilities are way over my head.
It also seems to be a thing for any device recording on xbox that it will not record my voice but it can be set to record other people talking...that bothers me that if i record an event like king kong i will not be heard.

OK fixed the low game volume issue...here is one of my races recorded. I also have learned how I will have to go about recording my voice separately and overlaying it...but I wont need to do that for a while.

considered, but as my gameplay is limited at the moment i wouldnt wana "throw and ashley" and buy a capture card, then never use it... i did however spot the EasyCap usb capture card... its cheap (<10 euro), realtively simple to use from the YT tutorial videos and delivers a reasonable quality.. takes a few extra pieces to be able to capture and use your TV at the same time (av splitters, additional component cables) but ive considered it be nice to have a PS3 videographer but i dont know if i would have the time to edit. plus im still building my PC atm and as it linux based id have to do some jiggling to get it to work |

So i was getting seriously pissed last night because whenever I hooked up through the device my screen resolution was converting to 480p. Races were horrible and blurry and my eyes were hurting. I couldnt get my sound to work right and I was frustrated. Toward the end of the night a freind with some video knowhow happened to log in and he skyped through my problems with me.
Using headphones and speakers audio gave me duplicate sound because I am using hdmi AND the red white from the official xbox cable...needed to do this for proper function of my headphones. So now I am using speakers only...which funnily still comes through my headphones. Had to adjust some in game, console and headphones settings to get things at acceptable levels but my vids will now have good sound and will include other people talking. I hooked up an unused webcam that I can use with microsoft sound recorder to create an overlay copy of my voice during events that I can add later.
As for the video I found a helpful youtube clip that showed me some settings I had wrong on the console. I aparently have been seeing 720p for who knows how long and my setting there was not allowing the roxio software to go above that. So changed the xbox hdmi to 1080p and adjusted roxio to the same. Last thing I saw last night was a nice crisp freeroam but could not test vid cause i was past bed time lol.
Hopefully, I will get some nice vids tonight. Then my next task will be to learn some editing.
I got to tell ya though I dont know jack shit about video editing.
Hey mo just to give you a heads up on this thing. I paid about 100$ for it. There is a cheaper version that has less editing ability.
It is an external box with inputs, outputs and a usb connection to the pc...thats it. I have heard that it does not function with hdmi for the PS3 due to sonny fucking with the signal to not allow it, but if you use red green blue yellow red your golden. Mine has been sort of difficult to set up but mostly because all my console and game settings were retarded.
The best part so far for me is there is no encoding needed if your not editing. I can record a vid that is saved in perfect shape for uploading to youtube. They are not saved as rough footage files...they are finished vids. I had that race uploaded practically before I finished loading into the freeroam after the race.

Yeah if you choose to edit the vid then it has to rencode the entire video...I havent done one yet but I hear it could take hours lol.

Hmm, this has got me very interested, always wanted a capture device. Sounds like you got a good one Luap. Quality looks good as well. So eager to see what it looks like in all its glory. Video editing isn't to bad, its just the processing times that the killer. I've got a HDD Recorder that I used for my CCTV, but have since upgraded, will see if I can hook it up somehow. Failing that I could just film the TV  |

ooo worths, that should actually give some ability to record from your ps3.. like luap said (and the guys at work told me when we captured screenshots of wireless ps3 setups) its annoying that you cant get a direct HDMI feed form the ps3 so usually have to go through the component leads... but im pretty certain you should be able to get that to work.
@luap - nice that you dont need to covert those videos, that is one of the biggest bitches about it but its been a few years since ive done any video editing (i used to make music videos using Adobe Premier) waiting for it to render takes foreeeeeeeever

14 of my races are now available for viewing, Haven't had time to link them nicely anywhere yet... linkI am a little annoyed that I spent a lot of effort getting the first frame of the videos all placed in a specific spot since I was not going to be editing and then it just randomly chose some frame in the middle of the vid for the thumbnail. |

yea youtube gabs its thumbnail preview from a few seconds into the video, but you cna use a still image to make a custom youtube thumbnail |

Well, it sucks that it is more work but thank you...the whole youtube thing is new to me. I last logged in about 6 years ago lol...and just watch vids offline since...needless to say it updated a few times since then.
I know it isnt the same as being able to actually drive them but I am really looking forward to any comments you PS3 guys have on my tracks...those are some of my best work.

Hey Mo...that custom thumbnail button isn't there for me. It just shows three generic ones to pick from.
OK never mind, I needed to verify my account to get those options.
But now I am confused. The thumbnail is the image that shows under the play button when you first pull the video up isn't it? Cause I pick the custom and hit save and nothing changes...does not change if I hit either of the other two either.
Never mind again...apparently there is some delay in the updating process.

Well thats wher I got the idea. We were chugging along through the review playlist and came to this and I had slip and catchup off so the start grid just sort of moved through thetrack uniformly as a group. It got so boring that I looked back to watch them for quite a while until I very suddenly hit his first set of barriers and the group looked like dandilion seeds flying in the wind. Then the challenge was dropped to video it backwards...but I couldnt subject anyone else to the boredom lol. I might try first person GTA with passengers though...could be interesting.
