AVerMedia Technologies has announced the availability of Game Broadcaster HD (C127), a 1080p HD video capture card designed for hardcore console and PC gamers. The Game Broadcaster HD adopts PCI-Express interface to guarantee that the full HD content can be preserved precisely and smoothly. The on-board HDMI and VGA inputs and enclosed Component to VGA cable increase the flexibility of capturing gameplay. Besides, the Game Broadcaster HD supports a wide range of graphics card resolutions. This makes it a very good choice of gameplay capture tool for Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and even PC gamers. Even better, it can also act as a broadcaster to stream your live gameplay onto the Internet.
Welcome to the comprehensive review of this AverMedia capture card and we compare it to a cheap capture card from Amazon that we previously bought that gave us a ton of headaches
Ken McKown writes: When Avermedia sent over the Game Capture HD II I was expecting yet another piece of hardware that captures game clips, offers commentary and has one or two quirks that simply annoy me. Much to my surprise, this device actually brings something new and interesting to the table. This is the first capture device that does not require a PC to function, making it much more appealing to those without hefty hardware who want to become a YouTube sensation.
SelectButton: "The ExtremeCap U3 can be found on Amazon for the same price as its pocket-sized brother, Live Gamer Portable, and still cheaper than the internal Live Gamer HD. Having USB 3.0 should be a huge factor when determining what product to purchase. If the answer is yes, the ExtremeCap U3 should be the only product on your list, with incredible visual quality and the only way to record 1080p at 60fps videos with a consumer level device. The lack of video pass-through does hurt the product if your PC doesn’t have USB 3.0 due to the lack of video pass-through and Mac users are simply out of luck once again."
Sorry but how old is this review? It states that this device can only capture video @ 30Mbps if recording 1080p/60fps.....but I bought this device in the last week of January and when I installed the latest drivers/software, it allowed me to capture video @ 60Mbps when 1080p/60fps
>No Component Cable support
No thanks. I wouldn't be able to use it on my PS3, since I don't have HDMI on it.
For Consoles I use the Elgato Game Capture HD. for PC I use the Avermedia Live Gamer HD.
