Screen Capture Quality?

[brassRGN]

Xbox 360 (set at HDTV 720 resolution)

Samsung HDTV (max resolution 720p)

 

Is there a way to make higher quality screenshots? Using the RGC software to capture gives me a 720 x 480 resolution picture and it's not the quality I expected like those found in gaming sites. I suppose there are settings to be made or even 3rd party software involved to achieve this?

i use to work for 2 video game media sites and the screenshots that used are given by the company in a press release or press kit. Sometimes people will use a 1080P Black Magic Intensity Pro or Shuttle which is the highest quality video capture card and is very expensive.

I see... guess buying a new capture card just to reach that kind of quality is certainly out of the question.

 

So any ways to improve RGC screenshot quality at least?

Remember that even though your source may be HD the device is only capturing in SD.
