Hello nice people :) I'm trying to record some game footage. Before anyone says 'Fraps' yes it's great, BUT doesn't work on the titles I'm trying to record. Same goes for BSR, at least on my system. Here's what I've been trying: Linked up an SVideo cable to the 'video out' on my PNY 6200 graphics card. Hooked the other end into the video in port on the video recorder ( via scart adaptor, as my lowly video doesn't have a direct input for SVideo ). Loaded up games in DosBox, pressed record on the video ... nothing. Clearly I'm doing something wrong here. I've got a pretty useless telly with only one scart, so that's out. Surely video out from the graphics card in to the video in on the VCR should work? Any ideas / suggestions more than welcome! Many thanks, Tony.

Have you setup your system to run in a mirrored dual monitor view? You should hookup the VCR to your tv to make sure it's actually getting the video.
