am I going to be able to record my in-game sessions like a dvd recorder or not using PlayTV??

I really need to know because those youtube videos are pushing me to do the same and I thought of buying a DVD recorder to do the job for me but if PlayTv has that recording feature then I'll get that instead.

No it wont, especially considering more and more games will be using the HDD to run.
Play TV is just a tiny little box, basically just a digital tuner, everythign else is PS3 side.

WTF? A DVI connector is a video output device. If you really want to record your games you will need a high definition video capture card in your computer.

Well, you don't NEED a high-def video card. I am just using my TV turner right now... It works and can record upto 1080i which is enough for me, I don't need 1080p. Plus youtube is not nearily 1080i anyway, so it all works out.

If your TV tuner card has an input for capturing video that is a TV tuner with video capture card. If you want to capture high quality high def you do need a high def capture card. You can feel free to argue the semantics all day if you wish but I've explained what is needed.

That would be silly if it was just output wouldn't it.
