Hi. I'm not going to be able to explain properly why I want to do this, but basically I want to record video through a VGA connection. I make machinima movies in Video Games (console, not PC, else I'd use FRAPS) and I'm tired of using my Pinnacle 700-usb, it doesn't give that good of quality. I was thinking and wondering what's stopping me from just using the built in VGA port on my secondary computer as a video input? I know there are probably certain restrictions, but honestly, I've seen way crazier things done that I just don't believe this can't be done. I also have a ATI 9250 Video Card (not VIVO, apparently) with VGA, S-Video, and DVI ports, so maybe those can be used. Basically, my capture card records 720x480 interlaced MAX, I know VGA has the required bandwidth for HD signals at LEAST 720p, but 1080p as well becuase I'm using the VGA adapter from my Xbox 360 to my 24" Acer HD monitor (1920x1200), so I know that I should be able to transfer (and record!) at least 720p video through a VGA port, which would be better than what I have now.
Thank you in advance.
