Game Capture HD

Game Capture HD is a feature-rich application that packs several powerful tools for recording videos with your gameplay as well as creating live streams live of competitions, raids or other adventures.

First off, you should know that the application requires you connect the Elgato Game Capture HD60 device to your computer, Xbox, Wii or Playstation in order to capture shots from the games you play. The application comes with a sleek and stylish interface that contains all the features you need to record or live stream footage.

While the video capture is the first and largest sections of the GUI, the main window also includes other functions that you might find useful. You can add tags, enable flashback recording, take snapshots. While it does not support timed capture, you should keep in mind that you can set hotkeys for starting and stopping the capture.

It is important to note that the utility comes with several editing features that enable you to tweak or correct your clips before uploading them or sharing them with your friends. Consequentially, you can resize the segments of the video and move them or remove them completely, so you can build a clip that features only the best action moments while skipping the boring parts.

At the same time, the tool allows you to seamlessly add team chat or music to your videos, sounds that you can play on multiple devices at the same time. You will be happy to learn that the application allows you to hear sounds from your speakers or headphones while recording. On a side note, the app also supports live commentary, a useful feature that automatically lowers the volume of the game whenever you speak.

If you are looking for an efficient solution that enables you to stream the best moments in your favorite game with your friends or just to create minute walkthroughs of challenging quests or missions, then Game Capture HD might be the tool to try out.
