Hey guys! So i'm a broadcaster, and Might and Magic 8 is one of my favorite games of all time!

Its an experience i've wanted to share with people for awhile, but this games a tricky one because of its age it doesn't show up as a game source on Xsplit, and when I screen capture it it becomes a tiny little box in the capture program. I've tried using OBS and also experienced the issue. If anyone has captured one of these games successfully can you explain how you did it? I'm running windows 7 (64 bit) if that knowledge is also important.

Thanks so much guys, hopefully someone can help cheers!

P.S this is not an attempt for exposure at all, hence no channel links, just want some help!

I used plain old "Print Screen" button and then pasted into MS Paint.

Yeah, it's not explicitly stated, but I'm quite sure this is a goal of "video capture" rather than "image capture".

In other words, Ashtenton wants to stream out a live play session of MM8 or 6.

I found one on Amazon. However, the reviews seem to provide a good summation of competing technologies.

Your saying you used a capture card on your own PC to capture the screen? I luckily have a capture card installed, thats interesting i'll try it!

If you could put up your experience I would appreciate it. I'm trying to learn video for a project which is why I was looking in the area you were interested in.
Any info at this time will help me build the lexicon I need to learn the video skills.

Thanks

I've used this before. it's free and not quite as user friendly as the paid options but actually quite powerful once you get used to it.

Same OS (Windows 7 64-bit). Following the instructions to disable Windows Aero speeds things up immensely.
