    How do I record Movies from one PC to another

    What I need to do is this.....

    Play a PC game on one PC, and record it on another PC as a Windows Media file.

    The 2 PC's are

    Radeon 9800 Pro and an nvidia nforce 2 shuttle

    Is it possible?

    And if so HOW?

    Easiest way to do it is take composite video out from machine with games on to composite video in on the recording machine. Of course, you'll need a VIVO device to do that on the recording machine.

    Cheapest way is to buy a PCI TV card, such as the Hauppage Rave. They're about £30.00, but I've seen them going for £20.00.

    For sound, take line out from gaming machine to line in on recording machine.

    This may involve disconnecting your speakers while you're recording or using a splitter lead.

    You'll also need software to record. Pnnacle Studio 7 is widely available as a freebie with spindle packs of CD's (PC World do them) and will do the job. Or does Windows Media Player have the facility? I'm not sure about that.

    You have quite a powerful machine ... why not use FRAPS?

    Note, you need ALOT of HDD room for any length of movie althoguh you can encode it to any CODEC with something like DVDx later!

    MacBook - 2Ghz - 1GB RAM - 120GB HDD
