How best to capture HD video as mpeg4?
I want to be able to regularly capture video from an unencrypted HDMI source and have it eventually end up as either 1080p or 1080i mpeg4 video, with as little expense and labor as possible. I'm thinking of two possible setups:
In my shoes, which would you go with? Or is there some other setup that would be better?
I want to be able to regularly capture video from an unencrypted HDMI source and have it eventually end up as either 1080p or 1080i mpeg4 video, with as little expense and labor as possible. I'm thinking of two possible setups:
- The BlackMagic Intensity capture device (probably the PCIe one), recording uncompressed to disk during the event, then doing the compression afterwards
- A combination of an HDMI-to-component converter (like this one) combined with a Hauppauge HD PVR for video capture
In my shoes, which would you go with? Or is there some other setup that would be better?
Why not transfer from HDMI to component and then get the Black Magic Video Recorder?
