Thanks
BTW I want this as an alternative to screen capture software since that just makes my games lag when I am recording. That's why I thought HD PVR or Capture Card could be a solution to this problem!How/Can I record with a HD PVR OR a Capture card on PC?
Capture cards record external sources, such as TVs and consoles, which is why you see all these websites with instructions to record console gaming.
If you really don't like software, you'll need either a monitor with S-Video Out, and hook up the monitor's Output to the capture card's S-Video Input, or a second computer to record
