They worked fine for what they are - a reliable but inexpensive way to capture HD video to computer. We’ve used Hauppauge’s HD PVR video recorder boxes here at Destructoid to capture game footage for the past couple of years.
We’ve given one a full test run over the past couple of weeks. Now they’ve released an update with the HD PVR 2 Gaming Edition, which steps it up with HDMI connectivity, 1080p capture, and other handy features, perfect for grabbing game footage from consoles. For less than $200 users could capture 1080i video easily. One of the most popular of these devices was Hauppague’s HD PVR video recorder, released about five or six years ago. Taking the price down from thousands to hundreds for these boxes came right in time for the explosion of streaming and sharing video on the internet. But these past few years companies like Hauppague, Pinnacle, AVerMedia and others have released affordable boxes that let you capture footage directly to your computer for editing and saving. It used to cost ridiculous amounts of money to record video from other sources, especially in HD.
