[glow=green,5,0] I intend on having my game recording act together by the start of the tourni and thus will offer my services. I'm thinking that it isnt really worth it until the last few games and its really for people who might want to watch important games but dont want to get up at 3 am to do it ...or for what ever reason can't be there. Dont know how large files will be yet as I will be using a differant method from the 'screen cam' system i've been experimenting with so far. I still expect them to be 50 - 100 meg so maybe out of reach of some narrow band users (but not all eh Steve?).[/glow] [glow=red,2,300]Any thoughts?[/glow]

Sounds like a cool idea to me, I would definitely appreciate a recording of the final and semi-finals, as well as any crucial games involving myself. I don't really know anything about recording and screen cams and the like, so I won't be able to offer any help, but if you are prepared to take the time to record tournament games, then I for one would love to watch them.
Peace,
USM

I presume it won't be a waste of time because it'a cool thing, but I won't be able to enjoy the pleasures of watching a recording of a game cuz' I only have a nasty 56k modem.

[glow=green,5,0] So i've done a bit more looking in to how exactly i'm going to record these games and have come up against a limitation. I will only be able to record games at 800x600 resolution. This does not mean in any way that the players have to play at this resolution, only that I (when recording) will have to be set to this. This does also mean that I will not be able to record any of the games i'm playing in... so no recording on the final this year . I've still got one more idea on how to knock it up to the full 1024x768 so watch this space. Recording games is pretty easy though so I bet others out there can do it as well. All You need is a video card with TV out and video in.... and a video recorder... I hope to have some samples together soon which I will make available via FTP.[/glow] [glow=red,5,0]Si[/glow]

[glow=green,5,0]Sorry to say that with the final game being played during the week, I will not be able record it. I set up a machine at work and ran some tests but the video cards we have here just can't handle it. If anyone else can capture the game then i suggest they try.
