Recording system for World Record attempt in a classic arcade game

Greetings
I will be attempting a World Record in a classic arcade game.
I have seen one streamed on Justin Tv

What I am looking for is a system that can do this and record up to 75 hours of continuos play.

Do we also need a back up

Looking for complete system that can be easily set up

Re: Recording system for World Record attempt in a classic arcade game

75 hours??? I won't probably trust anything like that to screen recorders. They may work though. But I would recommend a program that can split video say every hour. And I would test the program multiple times on several computers.

A better way is probably to use a hardware solution, the one that offers hardware encoding. If you have one computer with HDMI out and a desktop with a PCIe slot, you may use Hauppage Colossus HD PVR for recording from HDMI. You can also set up a broadcast to Justin TV or a similar service and download/capture the streaming video from it as well. Make sure to test your solution as well.
