XLR8

that is really cool! and i’m sure that’ll be extremely useful for the next time you get a new game before it’s officially released :D

It’s $99…. About the same price as eyeTV. I’d rather get eyeTV. It lacks the S-Video input, but it does allow you to connect gaming consoles and the like (and then I can have camtwist record from the eyeTV window for streaming).

I need that for my xbox cause i am a seriouse gamer and i post my matches with other teams on forums but it would be alot nicer to stream live.

thats cool. Being able to Play you gaming console and show your screen live over the internet. Internet can really do some amazing things these days.

That is really. I really want to get one of those. If so, I can stream anything online.

I love this thing Chris. Glad you did a video on it!

Nice!, i actully just ordered that

man i wish i had a mac

Great video Chris! There is a piece of hardware out there that does the same thing for windows but it doesn’t cost more. It is called the Dazzle. It does the exact same thing. I just thought I’d let everyone know so if you’re looking for something like this, check out the Dazzle made by Pinnacle.

Hey chris what is a good type of camera for a person that is taking pics of landscapes.

that is awesome. I would love to have one of those and a xbox 360.

that looks really cool but do u think it can work for the wii? or it doesnt matter?

Ahhh’ how nice. I currenty run TV-cards for my console recording. and this will be a nice and easy replasement.

Do it come with other connectables?

like HDMI, Component, and such?

I never even knew this product existed, it is so useful though. I actually bought this thing because of your video. That source switch thing works pretty darn good. Oh and that picture from your digi cam wasn’t even that bad chris!

Thats a really cool little pirece of hardware. I can see how it would be perfect for people who like to play games and record matches, and so they arent stuck just recording the screen with a camera, which everyone knows looks like junk. Ill have to look into getting one of these as i like making videos on games, and since i only use console games, this is the key to making them so much better than before. Happy New Year!

Good video chris. I am thinking about buying one of these now. I think you could use this for a whole lot more than the stream thing. It does suck a bit about XP being charged for.. Hope its worth it!

I talked about this on youtube but I have to say this is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a while. It’s like the multi-tool of usb devices. So bassically I am most definitely buying one as soon possible =D.

thanks, you saved me from buying a very expensive webcam. Now i can Fianlly stream when i want, I would also be able to stream the Wii. Im so glad you posted this, it save me some money.

This is so cool I have been wanting to record and show my xbox 360 over the internet. So far I have been using the pinnacle moviebox but it has bad quality. Thanks to this I can record in high quality without lag. Thanks Chris.

so i was using firewire to stream from my handicam but it seems this might have better video and probally more versatile… i am defintely gonna be looking to get one of those… thanks for the video

I love this review. I have been using my built in iSight or just moving files from my AVCHD camera to FC express.

I would love to own this piece of hardware. They did a review on AOTS that Kevin and Olivia reviewed, and they would definately recommend it! I just have a simple 7MP camera, can’t do streaming, which sucks but hey! It takes pictures!!! For those of you that love tech and have the G4 channel definately check it out, but of course nothing beats hitting the internet to watch Chris!!

I like the LED Lights, i will soon be buying lights as wellas the 30 inch monitors. i also want one of those Robots that Chris has. but anyways, Chris your doing a good job with all of the videos keep it up!, ive been a fan since the begining of 2007, and now the years almost over! wow! just keep it up Chris!

Thanks Chris! XLR8 looks and sounds cool.

Thanks for the product idea chris, this is a great innovation!

leds are great for a dark room like mine i have a scanner led i hacked ove my keyboard cause its really dark at night

I love this review. I have been using my built in iSight or just moving files from my AVCHD camera to FC express. I cant use the Camera as a USB digi cam.

This just in…XLR8 from Chris Pirillo, 20 Seconds Ago.

pretty good

Theres one with the audio. I got that for my parents to record old VCR tapes to digital. I also used mine to setup my ps3, since I have no svideo on my tv…

Dose the XLR8 work with ps3 as well?

I don’t have a mac. I really wish you did some win.

yes becoase it has a composite cable

wow thats cool!

It would work awsome because it is cheaper then a capture card!

I need to get one as well!

Got one better and been using it for a few year and its got nearly every connection you need (for now) and if you hook it up right you can definitely do more than video capture.

Take a look at the Pyro A/V Link. It’s advertised as an analog to DV Video Converter but I’ve been able run an analog camcorder through as a webcam, make connection from my DVD player to my computer, from my PS2 to computer. You’re only limited by the connections and your imagination.

This is what a lot of video game reviewers on YouTube use these days for recording game footage, nice to see you found out about it Chris.

Yeah, this is how Machinima makers record their footage from video games. I have an internal pinnacle pci-500 which works great, but I would highly recommend going with the pinnacle USB-700. It works via USB comes with Video editing software, Studio 11, and will allow you to hooks up composite and S-video so you can record whatever, eve t.v. shows, movies, video game footage. So you get the video capture card, & video editing software for $90. Still nice vid Chris hope to see you on XBL more.

My Panasonic camera has a analog to digital converter on it that I use to upload many of my videos on YouTube. It does almost the same as this, although this would be easier to set up.

i can see u in the background on one of your monitors

Yay TETRIS!!! will that work for the wii too?

Chris,

Is there a device like this that can feed one computers monitor to the other so that I can record it via Camtasia?

Otherwise this is really cool, maybe be able to use it with a 3D laserscanner at http://www.David-Laserscanner.com

Ben

Wow, that thing would be great for my fathers old VHS tapes.

i have a camera just like yours

hey somebody respond back to this. does this only work with the mac?

thats pretty sweet

jeez how many computers you want !!!

Tetris FTW!

Wow, I am so going to get one of those devices. I would then be able to stream my xbox 360games. Bwana is da bomb. Chris is no slouch either. LOL

this thing ******* blows for guitar hero/rockband and I bought it specifically for this- they need to find a way to decrease the lag and fast… Is there any kind of component to Mac video in solution?

I’m buying one.

You can buy the PC software extra. Don’t know how much it is, I think it was 20$

ok thanks

wat about if you get drivers for it

i love tetris
