Capturing Non Gamebox Data From Hdmi Or Component?

[trist]

I have a Sagem HD PVR 101-ST cable box and is looking for a way to record output from it (to save programs I have recorded on the HD to video file in my PC before removing them from the HD).

 

My question is if the COREL ROXIO GAME CAPTURE HD PRO can record from any device that output HDMI and/or component or only from game consoles? What I am worried about is that the cable box use some "copy protection" on its signals?! Can component signal transfer copy protection and if so will the COREL ROXIO GAME CAPTURE HD PRO refuse to capture?

 

Anybody that have tried anything like this?

It is designed for Consoles but for Off Label Uses, Yes it can...

 

Of course you can only do it using the Component cable as HDMI will be protected and not allowed.

Thanks for your quick answer - English is however not my native language so what exactly do you mean with "Off Label Uses"? Would it only work for some material (even over component) or?

 

I have read something on this link http://www.digital-d...-upscaled-dvds/ that I interpreted as that also component can be protected?!

How would you interpret "off-label användning" in Swiss???

 

Here, when something is 'labeled' do to certain things and you ask it to do something it wasn't designed to do... Off Label Use

Since I don't have a Game Console, this is how I have been testing:

 

HDMI: (program on right monitor - left monitor is from RGC Pass Through)

 

(Protected will not capture!)

 

Component:

 

(Will Capture)
