I really don't know. I am using it to connect multiple hdmi cables to send tv to multiple rooms. Sorry.

Really it's only used for game and video capture on your pc. I wouldn't capture cable or satellite do to copyright issues. I'm not even sure if it'll work

Their is an a/v input, but for what application I don't know. I tried hooking my PS3 to it, but it didn't work

While I can't speak for this card specifically I can vouch for the fact that your theory works. I've done as much with most basic capture cards. Just make sure that you have multiple video outputs on your graphics card and connect one to your monitor and loop back to the capture device through a second output. The card should appear in your recording software as a capture device and I've used it to record full screen video, capture PC game play and once even live-streamed my PC desktop to a website.

It wouldn't work at all for me I think you should just save up your money for a roxio or elgato :P

This does work for PS3. The thing is that I have a normal HDMI cable that runs into my capture card and this cable runs from the capture card to my HP monitor through the VGA port. I have also tried it on PS4 and Xbox 360.

I'm afraid what I bought is not the model you're asking. What I bought is here: http://www.amazon.com/Etekcity-Video-1080P-Converter-Adapter/dp/B008COJXHC/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1391671738&sr=1-1&keywords=Etekcity%C2%AE+vga+converter Even for the one I bought I'm not sure it will work with a gaming capture card because I don't play game and so I don't have such card. But I can say that the one I bought is a very reliable piece of equipment that works beautifully with V/A outputs. Mine is a 3.5 mm (mini socket) A/V out from my music device (bought directly from China, not on Amazon.com). My best guess is that if you have the old fashioned VGA output and you can somehow divert the signal into a three RCA (yellow, white, red) output and connect to the device I bought, it most likely WILL work with signal (picture and sound) no less or even better than the VGA input. Best of luck! - Albert

This will not allow you to capture from an HDCP enabled source, if that helps. I use it to capture PC gameplay. I run HDMI out of the GPU to an active HDMI splitter; one HDMI cord then runs to my monitor and a second into the capture card.

If you're still curious this only has the 3 RCA outputs Red,White,and Yellow. I record from my PS3 and have to go to the AV settings =( I am not sure though if you can get some sort of add-on where you can record from components.

Does anybody have a good video for instructions on how to set it up and get it to work. I found out how to set it up but when i turn elgato on the ps3 either is not recognized or tv screen goes blank

I use this device with my Nintendo Wii attached to my laptop, once you set the options correctly, turn off the features for recording, it works without lag. I have no issues with playing games other than reduced video quality.

Hello, I know the Playstation 3 playbacks avchd video straight from the memory stick pro duo used in Sony's avchd video cameras. Maybe you should try your card on a playstation 3 and see if It can playback the video. Hope this helps.

Yea it will, I have a youtube channel youtube/is21rocks. There you will see recorded footage from avermedia game capture II, specifically Tomb Raider DE gameplay. Make sure you turn off the HDCP from your PS4 before you turn on the Avermedia device. Anytime you use apps like Netflix, Prime etc. the avermedia will not record, the green indicator will flash continuously. It must be a solid green to record. Follow avermedia onscreen instructions and you should be fine. I also found many youtube videos that were very helpful when it came to troublshooting. Good luck!

I run the camera to my PS3 through the controller charger USB cable then I just browse with my PS3 to what I am looking for on the camcorder and either save or watch it. It does take a few minutes to save though. The other option is recording to a memory stick card and putting that in your PS3 if you have the correct model. It does use up quite a bit of space if you save footage on a PS3 though. I have really had no problems with it and it is kinda my best option to watch exactly what I recorded in the same quality till I get a blu ray burner.

In theory that should work, if you already have the EZgrabber I'd say try it. But I assume you haven't purchased it yet and that's why you're asking. What I did with mine is plugged it into a VCR player so I could capture video from old home videos, worked great but you need to play with the settings. Again in theory if you plug it into AV out from any source you should be able to capture from it.

Yes, i've been able to do that very thing with the splitter i use. However, just a caveat, if your computer has a 700 series NVidia video card, this particular recorder is next to useless. i've read it works great with 600 series cards, though. Go figure.
