Can you still record TV with the HD PVR Gaming Edition? Can you record TV with the Gaming Edition? Which edition would you recommend? Ideally I would like to record gameplay and maybe some TV.

The only difference is the LED's and the 3 in 1 cable. Otherwise its the same thing as the other HDPVR.

I would think you could, the only difference I seen between the 2 is one is only for your TV and the other allows you to record off your xbox360 and ps3, and wii also. So I would say yes you can still record TV from the "gaming one". I am not 100% sure about this so please don''t take my word for it 100%, But Yes, I would think you would still be able to.good luck and hope this helps!

You can indeed record PC gameplays, but I'm not sure about twitch tv broadcasting, also, you can check out AverMedia's YouTube channel: AverMedia Lab, and also, I've been looking for months on a headset, and turtle beaches DID NOT work, if you are broadcasting, use the tritton kunai, they are good and inexpensive

I looked all over and I can't seem to find an answer to this question, either. I did read a review on a website called digitaltrends, though. They said there was a lot of motion blur in fast-paced movie scenes, which isn't reassuring. I wonder if there is a "game mode" like some hdtv's have? :/

I've been wondering the same thing, only I have Windows XP Media Center. I'd like to be able to DVR shows on the PC and watch them on my regular TV. I'm starting to think I should just have a dedicated PC for the TV.

Not sure. But it is worth it to save up and buy an hd pvr! I later bought one and they are worth the wait!

Don't forget to get 'Y' adapters so u can split the signal for your TV and the Dazzle. I got this to record matches myself (coming today) off my xbox (which is not "pirated" anything, it's game play footage).

It has to be a compatible capture device. The key question is what is considered compatible? That I do not know as they refuse to release a compatibility list :( I have ran against the same issue with 1/2 my devices.

Yes and Yes. It is a fine machine and I am discovering new capabilities all the time. I was originally concerned that the HD tuner was "only" SDTV, but 480 SD is so much clearer than analog that it seems closer to 1080 HDTV than to the old analog. One unexpected benefit is that I can fit so much more programming on a DVD in SD, and I am now glad that it isn't 1080. Suggestion: I record HDTV programs in SP and HQ because they have a higher horizontal resolution, and analog and VHS tapes in the longer playing modes. I am currently watching an HDTV program I recorded last night in SP mode. The recorder automatically squeezed the image to 4:3 and stored it at the higher horizontal resolution. Now I can play it with the TV display in the horizontal stretch mode that turns 4:3 into 16:9. The higher recorded resolution preserves the image quality, and now the aspect ratio is back to original. It looks great on my 1080 HDTV and fills the whole screen. It could have also been recorded in a letterbox mode preserving the aspect ratio for viewing on an analog TV. So many options.

Plays back your vids beautifully on your HD TV directly from the camcorder, just make sure you use the correct input jacks on the TV. Won't record tv thru the jacks, as far as I can tell. In a pinch you can steady it on a tripod and point at the tv screen to record--comes out pretty good.

I hooked the PETHRV HDMI direct from my set top box HDMI connention to the Portta PETHRV HDMI and then hooked the component (G/B/R) plugs to the Hauppage HD PVR and recorded programs to my computer without any problem. Hope this helps. I use Arc Soft TotalMedia program to record to my computer.

Yes, recording at the same resolution is possible with either media, up to 1080i. I seem to recall a slightly different maximum bitrate but not the specifics and getting my hands on the manual is more trouble than I care to go to. That information is available online if you deem it important.

Anybody?....we have tried everything. There is supposed to be an option for av out in the quality video settings. However the options in quality are the same as in panel quality. Very dissapointed right now. How do I get them both to play video as well as hearing the movie?

This unit will play a DVD recording so that your 3d-hd-tv will let you watch, but it won't be either hd or 3d. As for recording from the tv directly, my experience is that you can't do it--you need a separate tuner, and even then you need to fuss around for permission to record. If you are using a cable or satellite box, you will need to work with the provider to to let you record their content.

I believe that the statement above is incorrect . This device should record HDTV broadcast since it contains an ATSC tuner. However it will not play the broadcast back as HD since the media to which it writes (regular DVD & VHS tape) do not support playback in HD. Ergo you lose some definition in playback.
