If you use HDMI connection for recording xbox 360 gameplays, there shouldn't be any problem. You may find lots of feedback from gamers recording HD videos over HDMI using
Blackmagic Intensity Pro. There should be no difference when using
Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle for recording from HDMI.
PS3 however uses HDCP. And xbox 360 uses HDCP for movies as well. To record HD videos in such cases you need to use component video.
Quote from one of the
reviews of Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle on Amazon:
Quote:
Full 1080p 59.94 (Double NTCSC) fps is not available for the shuttle yet, purely because USB 3.0 is not fully developed as of yet and computers can't keep up. So don't play 1080p on your xbox or ps3. 720p and 1080i should work
...
The Intensity Shuttle was then connected to our computer and our Xbox 360 via HDMI at 1080i. Next, we went into the "Blackmagic Control Panel" in the "Control Panel" of our Windows 7 computer to ensure all the inputs/outputs were set to our needs, HDMI video and audio. We then launched "Media Express" and set the "Preferences" to our needs for recording from an Xbox 360. We are using the compressed MJPEG codec at 1080i59.94FPS which works flawlessly even on our single "WD Caviar Black" HDD.
Right out of the gate the Intensity Shuttle has worked great and is definitely a better overall product from it's similarlly priced competitor's
...
As well, Blackmagic Design and Fresco Logic just recently announced Fresco Logic's development of a new USB 3.0 host controller, the FL1009, which will be able to handle the large bandwidth requirements of 1080p60FPS. Current USB 3.0 Host Controller cannot handle 1080p60. Whenever this is made available as a PCI-e add on card you then be able to record 1080p at 60 FPS, assuming your system is compatible. This is something that those with an Xbox 360 should be interested in as it outputs 1080p at 60FPS.
