Performance and Software
I really enjoyed testing out the GC1500 from Diamond Multimedia! you are able to use the GC1500 with all the major consoles, even some of the older versions using the analog input port. If your video card does not already have game capturing capabilities , don’t fret, this game capture is PC compatible. The GC1500 is fairly easy to use too! This device comes in three different modes, PC mode, Standalone mode, and streaming mode. Each mode comes with live voice commentary. I will mainly go into detail using the PC mode, while also showing you bits and pieces of the rest. For PC mode you will need to use your computer and download the software.
Diamond Multimedia provides the USB cord to connect to your PC. Once you are connected, pop in the software disk that is provided from Diamond Multimedia. The latest drivers download along with the software. Once all of that is downloaded, you are able to use your PC to record gameplay from any console or just straight from your PC. You are able to stream to Twitch, Ustream, or any other live gameplay streaming sites.
In streaming mode, you are able to stream live to sites such as Twitch. You are able to stream directly to Twitch or Ustream.
Here is some gameplay video from my current favorite PC game, Ori and the Blind Forest, that I captured using the GC1500.
And there you have it readers. Let us move on the conclusion and verdict section of this review!
