right on man, make a skate test

I think this is as good as it's gonna get man.. The Skate games just react weird to capturing.
Video is a bit laggy but it's alright quality. Really a hassle to capture clips.. not sure how often I'll make videos now
Probably not often.

i dont see much interlacing thats good, drop the quality slider down and hopefully it wont lag, looks good besides lag

[Antwan]

I would be interested to know if the video is a bit laggy for everyone through playback
It is for me and you.. and the edit is even worse, surprised it was less sluggish than when I was editing.
So going to look for an alternative for sure.. still curious though.
Pretty sure it's the compression codec I used.. I saw no issues with AVI Capture and playback
lag seemed to happen after compression but the quality went up ten fold..
Guess it just doesn't work with the dazzle.. What are the highest settings you guys have used to get a good video?
I'm using virtualdub for capture and de-interlacing and sony vegas to edit..
so settings in those would be helpful.. but some software is similar, any ideas are good.

i have a pc monitor i use.
box sends out widescreen 720x480 sd...
so i capture in what the box sends out..
also im on studio 10 which is super old..
no options for hd at all...

progressive encoding is pretty much all i do and my shit doesnt look all that great anyway...
upgrade?...
never..

like i said i have the capture set to whaty ever the box sends out so it doesnt lag at all...
keep fucking around with it..
i watch your shit because it helps me figure out new shit to do all the time...
it would kinda suck if there was less...

[Antwan]

No shit..
So I combined two points you all made.. Capture what the box puts out,
and thinking my TV Might be putting out 420I instead of 420p
Captured in 420I and rendered to AVI and it doesn't look half bad.


and compare it to what I was using

It was a quick test and I think there's still something I need to fix but in the right direction for sure.
