Question

how to record gameplay on ps3?

Answer 1

f you have a standalone tristar mx hd pvr recorder, or a hauppage hd pvr, you can use that.



Plug the PS3 (xbox 360 or ds or wii) into the tristar mx hd pvr INPUT ports, and plug the tristar mx hd pvr OUTPUT ports to your TV. Change the input on the hd pvr so you see your PS3 on the TV (this means the signal from the PS3 is going through your tristar mx hd pvr.) Pop in blank micro sd card, flash drive, thumb drive, or just record to the internal hard drive, start your game and hit record on the tristar mx hd pvr.



When you're done, hit stop on the tristar mx hd pvr.



You can now watch the video you just made from hd pvr player by pressing play or put into your PC's by the USB cable and edit it using Microsoft Movie maker, or whatever other video editing tool you have. Once the tristar mx hd pvr is connected to your computer, you can convert it into whatever format you need based on your ultimate purpose (like posting to youtube.). Keep in mind you can also connect it to your computer by a network cable too. Or just burn micro sd card or flash drives all day. You can even make copies for your friends to show off your work. You can do all the copying directly from the tristar mx hd pvr. So need to really use a computer ;)



here is an example of the hd pvr i wrote about:

Answer 2

you need something called a capture card. not that its a card but a cable that intercepts the signal as you play and stores it on comp. my only problem is i havent found one that uses hdmi inputs and outputs.

Answer 3

I use a Hauppauge HD-PVR. It costs from $180-220 depending where you buy it from. It can only use component cables, has no hdmi connection. For like $50 you can buy a Dazzle, it won't record in HD though. The HD-PVR comes with everything you need to start recording when you install and update. For editing software, you might want to go on Youtube and search "free sony vegas pro", see what might come up. http://www.youtube.com/user/DexterMorgan619 That's my Youtube channel. You can see what quality videos the HD-PVR makes. If you want to record with hdmi, look up a company called Blackmagic Design.
