You'll also need an editing program...I don't have a funny picture to go with that, though.

actually. You DON'T need a dvd drive. If you have a capture card you can capture footage via cable at 1:1 speed. However, you're better off using a drive.

If you like Macrovision screwing with your footage, then, yeah, that works great.

Otherwise, you'll need some additional hardware to repair the signal, or get a capture card that isn't affected by attempts to bork the automatic gain control.

true true.
Of course, I don't remember when it was, but I believe the supreme court ruled that you are allowed to make copies of your DVDs via pointing a video camera at the screen too.
I was just pointing out that there are all sorts of ways to do things. I had a student capture game footage in exactly the same say (using a capture card. Personally I like the idea of using HD raw captures, but they are kind of hard to come by (lots of fake upscales and such floating around).


bork... hahah... bork.
