GV-USB2

Post by Demetori »

I was just watching another live STG stream on Livetube.cc and I asked the guy playing what he used to bring the 360 picture from the console to the PC for recording, and he linked me to this.

Has anyone had any experience with this? is it reliable? I'm looking at grabbing one.
Google Translate tells me that Unlimited Mode "is for people who like festivals."

No need to import this one. There are many Composite & S-Video to USB grabber on eBay - starting as low as $20. They use live MPEG1 or MPEG2 encoding. Quality is ok for SD Youtube uploads, but the downside is that you're limited to playing with these connections at the same time and you need a 1:2 distribution switch for your signal since the USB input with encoding is too laggy to actually play on the PC screen.
