How To Record Gameplay Video Using Hdmi Capable Laptop?

turbopowerdmaxsteel
I have an XFX 8600 GT graphics card and Dell Studio 1415 Laptop which supports HDMI. What cable do I need to use to direct the output of my desktop to the laptop so that I can record gameplay videos without sacrificing game performance? Also, I am not sure if my graphics card supports HD output. How do I determine it?

XFX 8600 GT graphics card doesn't support HDMI. You can check your product description or this link to be sure.

QUOTE
What cable do I need to use?

If HDMI was supported you would only need the HDMI cable. HDMI consists of both audio and video, so there are no separate cables for audio and video separately.

And even if you had HDMI on your laptop, you can't record that way. Because HDMI's on laptops are only for output. So you are basically talking about connecting the HDMI output of your CPU to the HDMI output of your laptop which is not possible.

But why do you want to record on your laptop when you can do it in your desktop PC itself. There is a popular software known as FRAPS which can record your game play.

If you still want to play and record on two machines, you can use a TV tuner to take in the output of your HDMI graphics card output and record on your laptop.

Oops! I just checked now, there are no external (/internal) TV tuners supporting HDMI inputs. May be you should upgrade your PC so that you can play games as well record it without any game performance issues.

If you meant external screenwise, only one computer and its cpus/gpus do the processings for all screens. It seems laptops don't have input of this kind.

Xbox 360?
How To Record Gameplay Video Using Hdmi Capable Laptop?

I'm looking for a capture card that can record in HDMI, and one that can capture Xbox 360 gameplay. I have a capture card already, but it only captures in standard AVI. Just the red, yellow, and white. So I'm sacrificing a lot of quality that can make my recording a lot more dull and not as clear as recording in HDMI. 

But I can't find anything that's like that. Any help? Something like a Dazzle, or a Pinnacle Movie Box but with an HDMI slot? If you can find one or answer this, then much thanks is given.

  13. Can Hdmi Be Converted To Dvi-d Dual Link?
    (0)
    I currently have a PS3 that is outputting using HDMI. The HDMI is converted to DVI-D and connected
    to a Dell 20 inch flat panel. This works nicely, except that I can do a maximum resolution of 780p,
    and I would like to do 1080p. So I am thinking about upgrading my monitor, and I was thinking, why
    not go for a 30 inch monitor? But the 30 inch monitor requires DVI-D Dual Link. I was wondering if
    HDMI could be converted to DVI-D Dual Link or whether I would be wasting my time (and money). The

    laptop users. Take a look on your CPU fan vent on your laptop (underneath). Spot lots of dust? Get
    an air can and dust it out! All sides of the vent. Dust will cause heat to build more rapidly in the
    CPU in laptops. Since the CPU is mobile and since its getting hot fast it will work with the
