I've started recording footage for playthroughs of games I have on rom which is all easily done but I want to try and record footage for console games so I was wondering if any of you lot had any idea of how to do it.

The best way is to buy a capture card, I dont know exactly how it works but its pretty much a perfect picture (Just know this from a friend that has one), they're quite pricey though, otherwise im not too sure..

I suggest you PM Sheepling and find out how he did it. He's done it for the wrestling stuff...

Buy something along the lines of this
You can get USB versions if you don't fancy opening up your PC.

Plug the console into that
Play your game by viewing it on the software that comes with it (WinTV)
Record your footage using the program.
There's a massive help topic about it on HS.

Thinking about it, I could do it for some consoles too.

Some video players have input scart sockets in the back, so you could run the console's scart lead through there and run another from the video into the TV and record that way, of course that's assuming these videos aren't for putting on your computer or you have a way of transferring them.
(also, possibly this could work with recordable DVD players and DVD's could be ripped onto computer)

i think you could put a camera on a tripod wait till the light is settled and you have a good enough level of light and start recording but i am probably wrong a you will probably get black lines from useing a camera :|

Well some of these look like good ideas but I really need a cheap means to do so and some of the recordable dvd players I've seen are really expensive and I heard things like capture cards may requirea large hardrive.

Just over an hour of Brainiac = 1.5GB over here.
I've nearly filled a 111GB partition with films.
