walter_J64bit Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I have just got my hands on a video capture device and I want to use it with my Jag and other game systems too , it's not a high-end device at best it can do is capture @ 30fps would that work for capturing video from the Jag?

+madman Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 30fps is more than enough for most Jag games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelleAmelie Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 (edited) What capture device is it? You can get 60FPS out of most of the cheaper ones by using AmaRec TV's deinterlacer. Edited September 15, 2017 by Noah120 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an EasyCAP I can see the lag in JagDoom being over exaggerated @ 30fps. I'll check out AmaRec TV's software. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! No problem! There's a pretty good guide on setting it up at this page: https://kb.speeddemosarchive.com/Amarectv_configuration The only thing I disagree with on that page is using the Lagarith codec/video compressor. I would suggest downloading x264vfw and using that instead unless you HAVE to have lossless video. x264 looks nice and has a small file size; you can see it and AmaRec in action in this review I made here: I used a Dazzle as my capture device in that video but it doesn't really matter. Basically any capture device that doesn't support HDMI or Component will work with AmaRec since all AmaRec does is restore the footage back to its native 240p at 60FPS, instead of the ugly 480i at 30FPS that capture cards normally spit out.
