It's been announced that livestreaming and sharing capabilities are to built into the PlayStation 4, which might render devices like the Game Capture HD Pro somewhat redundant. I also have some long term concerns about the device. If your aim is to capture moments of gameplay and splice them together with a few effects, I think you'll be more than pleased. In general, the software supplied by Roxio feels a little buggy and somewhat lacklustre for live streaming. It's shame it can't be used with the free (and superior) FFSplit, but I'm happy to use XSplit broadcaster instead. The hardware is superb for the most part plug-and-play, and the quality is stunning. The hardware itself was functioning fine (confirmed with XSplit - see the bit on third party apps below). But as yet, I've been unable to figure out the cause. I do test a lot of software though, so it's possible a conflict was introduced into Windows 8 somewhere. Reinstalling the software from the Roxio disc didn't solve the issue, so I completed this review on a fresh Windows 7 PC, where I'm happy to report everything went smoothly. Though the software did initially work on my Windows 8 64-bit machine, it mysteriously stopped working a week later and just decided to crash immediately upon launch, with no explanation. Here's a sample recording:Ĭapture mode is severely limited by the inability to add either webcam overlay or audio commentary you can only add audio commentary through post-production edits. In terms of file size, you're looking at around 100 MB per minute at top end, so a 10-minute game will result in a 1 GB video. I had no trouble capturing full quality HD on a fairly modern PC. Assuming the video preview is working fine, capturing clips is a one-click affair: hit the capture button. ![]()
