The new Hauppauge Capture application for the HD PVR Rocket. Record, trim and upload your game play

The good folks over at Hauppauge Computer Works recently announced a new product, the HD PVR 60 Game Capture device, full details here. Its a USB product, similar in design to the existing HDPVR 2 GE model, although this new device is bus powered! No need for an external power supply. Thank you Hauppauge! Dec 03, 2013 The two devices are priced nearly identically - the HD PVR 2 GE Plus is US$179.00 and the Rocket is $169.00 - so it really comes down to whether you prefer the litany of recording options on the. Jun 03, 2020 If you want to record your HD videos without a PC, you should use the HD PVR Rocket. If you have a Mac, there is an application from HDPVRCapture which can be used. Go to for more information. After installation, open Hauppauge Capture. Make sure the Rocket is listed as the source (in the upper left hand corner of Hauppauge Capture, you should see HD PVR Rocket listed) and then increase the Game audio volume. Now close Hauppauge Capture to save the new audio volume setting and you're recordings will have increased audio volume.

Notes:

When connected to a PC, we recommend that you use both the black and red USB connectors on the 'Y' cable, plugged into two USB ports. Sometimes computers do not provide enough power on one USB 2.0 port and therefore we recommend using BOTH the red and black USB connectors. Alternately, you can plug just the black USB cable into one USB 3.0/3.1 port, which provides enough power for the Rocket.

When you run Hauppauge Capture, you can make settings such as audio and video sources, bit rate and volume adjustments 'sticky' for use standalone.

Features and improvements: Rocket version 48

The microphone audio volume has been increased by 50%, fixing some problems with low microphone audio volume when recording standalone
Adds support for recording stand alone from video sources without audio (such as medical devices)
Adds support for HDMI video and LineIn audio (for use with the Hauppauge Chat Cable). You need to use Hauppauge Capture to set the input combination to HDMI video and LineIN audio. This setting will then be remembered in standalone mode.
There are no file size limits for recordings with NTFS formatted USB thumb drives. For example, if you insert a 16GB NTFS formatted USB thumb drive, you can record about 8 hours of video in one file
Rocket recordings are now compatible with the VLC media player
Audio processing improvements (your recordings will sound better)
Fixes flashing on some TV sets
This version now supports HDCP management. HDCP detection is disabled by default (this will ensure Xbox One game play can be recorded)
To turn HDCP detect ON, PUSH and HOLD the record button for 5 seconds. The red record ring will flash twice.
To turn HDCP detect back OFF, PUSH and HOLD the record button for 5 seconds and the red record ring will flash once.
Note: in either mode, you still cannot record HDMI video protected with HDCP.
