[Q] How to record from pc without capture card? - General Questions and Answers

Hi I have a Asus tf300t tablet and I want to record and make videos of games with good quality and no lag. I don't want to use screencast or android screen recorders because they will probably lag. I read about using HDMI to get the best quality but is there a way to do it without a pc capture card? I don't want to install new hardware into my computer. I tried finding usb options and stuff but can't find any information.
Does anyone know the best way I can record high quality from my android device without a pc capture card? Like some kind of hdmi usb thing? Thanks.

Try this one : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iwobanas.screenrecorder.free&hl=nl
It records your android screen in High Quality (The users of the app says so) and store them up in your SD card, after that you could just Connect your Device to your PC and place them on your PC. (For this app your android device needs to be rooted)

[REQ] TV-Out to TV-In

I like TP function that they could connect to monitor out for presentation, etc..
But would it be better if TP could use TV-Out cable as a TV-In and record some TV programs, and convert into FLV or MPG formats ?
Anyone could develop this idea?
Thanks.
I don't think it has the hosrpower to do that.... Outputting is one thing but receiving a signal and encoding on the fly... Naaaah not gonna happen...
However a small device that plugged into the USB, and essentially streamed video direct to the built ijn memory card would be possible, but somebody would have to create it !
I don't think it can be done, for the same reason you can't just "convert" a TV-out on a PC video card to TV-in. It requires different hardware, which isn't there. That's why you need to buy a video capture card.
Well, you could just point your camera at a TV showing the video source...

You mis-understand, the device I have in mind IS a video capture card, with USB host facillities, allowing it to use the phone as a USB hard drive to store it's video on, this video could then be played back on the phone !

Yes, I think that's a valid idea, I was actually replying to asiandelight's post, because he mentions the TV-out cable.

[Q] How far can I go in replacing my desktop with my Xoom?

I am looking to possibly go on an extended business trip (two months for a particular project), and was contemplating taking one of my desktops or possibly buying a laptop. But it occurred to me that I might be overlooking an obvious answer.
While I obviously won't be doing Photoshop work on my Xoom, it occurs to me that if I get the dock that I should be able to playback to the HDMI that is likely to be on the TV in my room. Already have a Bluetooth keyboard so doing some work even on documents and presentations isn't likely to be THAT difficult. So the remaining question is can I get the Xoom to talk to my 4TB external USB 2.0 drive for saving files and playing back video? Or is that taking things too far?
Thanks in advance!
From what I have seen, you will need to wait to install a custom kernel to get USB mass storage to work because HC 3.1 doesnt yet support that. So that means you will need root. But once you have done that it is doable
Now if your still using 3.0.1 then install timat 1.4.1 using kernel manager and check out this thread

Also you have to consider the limitations on the Tegra2 video playback, to put it in a simple way, won't play your hi quality mkv's without the need of re-encoding the video. And that you can't do on the xoom
For the other things its awesome, I also have a BT keyboard with pointer and was really nice sitting somewhat far from the xoom and browse the internet or watch youtube on the LCD. Also played some PSX games and some Game Cube to test for lag or anything, not bad at all.
as stated above if you get the 3.1 update you would be able to use your HDD

[Q] Can I record videos directly to my hard drive using USB otg?

Hello. I have a question.
I want to buy and USB Otg cable (ET-R205UBEGSTD) for my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 but I can't find one important (to me) information. if I will connect hard drive (sata3, but inserted into Case with USB out), and connect it via USB Otg I will be able to see all my data from hard drive. That's easy. But... Will I be able to save photos and videos taken and recorder from Samsung Camera App directly to hard drive? I am asking because I want to record long videos in Full HD and I know that they will not fit on internal memory I could buy a memory card, but I want to see all my options.
Can anybody who have that kind of cable check this for me? I would be great full
Thanks in advance.

[Q] USB OTG direct video saving

I'm having a similar problem to one I noticed in a different post, here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987102 . I need to save HD video to an external storage device directly, as this guy wanted to do. However, every camera app I've tried, and ursafe media director doesn't recognize my usb otg hard drive as a location. the only way I can browse it is through file manager. Any suggestions? I have a Lenovo S-3000, takes 1080p video, and I want to be able to record directly to a thumb drive with it. Thanks in advance!
