i wonder if Play TV 2 will have any effect from this.

I roll with Avid, After Effects, Boris and Photoshop (got this interesting little project in the works that needs all four) and I agree that the PS3 video editor isn't a fully equipped editing suite. Hell, most of the features built into the Media Composer line are especially built for film editing such as FilmScribe and EDL systems. However, as a starting point, it's fascinating how many features they've managed to cram in.

I hope Sony first upgrades the software to compete with bigger solutions like FCP and Avid (though that's asking too much) before adding in other features like video capture. The effects palette is a good start witht the slow-mo, speed up and transition effects and I'd love to see them outfit it some more. I'd also love to see a keyboard specific command and shortcut list for those with USB keyboards.

@jcgamer: Hey, how was the title tool (the one you used to create text)? I mean, how are the selection of fonts, styles and effects for it?

LOL. Absolutely priceless. Did you upload it to Youtube yet?

Try using the embed code listed on Youtube in the "Embed video(+)" tab when commenting.

You should see a button underneath the video that says "Embed". It'll give you code that looks like this:

<object width="480" height="385">< param name="movie" value=" http://www.youtube.com/v/Hb... name="allowFullScreen& ;quo t; value="true">< /param><param name="allowscriptaccess&a mp;q uot; value="always">&a mp;l t;/param><embed src=" http://www.youtube.com/v/Hb... type="application/x-shock wave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always " allowfullscreen="true& ;quo t; width="480" height="385">< /embed></object>

(Make sure you get the original code though, not this one that I just pasted)

And when you insert it in the embed video tab here, you get this:

Love that clip. I really like when Brian tries to sneak past Stewie later on.

I didn't know you could upload to Facebook as well. Hopefully all this new Facebook integration will come together.

It still seems a bit...unorganized.

The PlayStation 3 doesn't support video capture directly, the PS3 SDK has support for Youtube intigration if the given developer chooses to do so, but since there is no file to actually upload, there is no need for them to put in the youtube feature. Just Cause 2 can record footage of the game by using some of the processing power of the PS3 needed to dump and encode the video stream.

It would be possible with replay systems like the one found in Uncharted 2, since its just position data getting tossed around, but the game uses far too much processing power to be able to dump and encode the video feed live. However, i think they atleast should have implemented a render feature for the Uncharted 2 cinema mode, so that you could adjust the camera to your liking and then tell the PS3 to dump xx:xx - xx:xx seconds into a render file.

That method might not be real time, but it would allow us to dump a 100% digital video feed down to our HDD's.

Video capture isnt that big a problem for me, since i am using the Hauppauge HD PVR and i can't really tell the difference when gaming on component or HDMI, if the TV has been adjusted propperly.

I actually think it's a very good thing that developers don't include video capture in their games, since most of them records it to a shoddy resolution that is like 640x360 and it steals processing power. HD capture equipment isnt that expensive any more and it offers a far better solution then what any game with video capture has offered + it thankfully stops everyone from doing poorly edited montages.
