There are also other ways to record your gameplays. You can do it with a video camera, DVD Recorder, VHS recorder, PVR,... connected to your gaming console (or to the output of your TV).

Hi, I'm new to the forum, so please forgive me if this is answered later in the thread from this post; I will continue to read; but here you mention a DVD Recorder. Do you mean that you can use DVD ripping software and then edit out the parts you don't want or what? I am new to recording game play, so not sure of the ins and outs of what this means.

As for resolution, I want a good quality, but doesn't need to be the best. My intent is to record my game play to make my own music videos. I've never done anything like this before - as far as recording from video games, but had the idea after playing Dragon Age 2 the other day. Basically, what I want to know is: Is recording game play different from ripping a DVD to your computer (what I've done to make my music videos before), and the easiest, most inexpensive way to do it. Right now, the computer with the ripping and video editing software (master computer) is in a whole other room from the Xbox and TV, and the line connecting the Xbox to the modem runs through the attic - not something I want to experience doing again, let me tell you. I have no camcorder, but my laptops we cam MIGHT work if I can find a way to get the laptop close enough (I doubt it will have good quality), or I have a small external webcam which will likely have the same issues (finding a way to position it, and have good quality. So any help in that area would be appreciated.
