i know i posted this on ps.com but i know a lot of you guys have made movies and i was wondering what you guys used... i want to buy a capture card but the questions i have are... 1. anyone know any that are cheap but still good? 2. does it take up a bunch of space on my hd? 3. is there a way i could just use a VCR? and not a capture card PS: ive tried fraps and gamecam but it really makes me lag. |

maybe he wants to make funny movies. 1. dunno 2. yes 3. you can use a vcr if you have a tv out on your video card. but to get it back into your computer you'd need a capture card. |

| whatever fps you set to record at in fraps, it will make your game run at that fps. so if you set it to 30fps for example, when capturing your game wlll NOT go any higher. |
