Ok, i got my new computer, and got an S-video thing, im gonna use that to put together a movie type thing. Will it kill my FPS (frames per second), with a video game, for having it attached to a TV from the s-video, into an RF thing, then into my tv, thats what i need to know. Thanks!

Ok, i play a game called Planetside. I bought a thing to convert Analog video cameras into USB to put it into my computer. This thing say i put beavis and butthead the movie in the vcr of this tv. I could hook it up thru co-ax i think its calle,d and put it into my computer. But, im going to use the S-video to record me playing some games, so i can make it into like a little parody....get my drift? But will it kill my FPS (frames per second) if i record while im playin, or even have it hooked up....thats my question

My thinking is it might kill you FPS on a game, during recording or playback of the video, but not when you are not doing anything with the connection.

Yes, indeed, if your PC is trying to play a game, it's not going to want to have to capture video as well! If your card has a TV out option, record the game onto video, then play back into PC and capture it then, otherwise you will more than likley get dropped frames.

So when i am playing this game, the S-video into an RF modulator broadcasting it onto a screen will cut my frames or drop some? will they go back to normal once i stop recording it? i wont be putting it back into my computer, gettin a firewire camera later....so no point hehe....thanks for the help...answer this last question than that will be it...

Thanks

Is that what you're talking about ?

If so, it's hard to tell if it would work well as i dont know your pc's configuration.

You can have a radeon 9800 pro and get good results as you can have a radeon 9800 pro and get shitty results.
