I play a lot of Xbox and watch a lot of YouTube. How do people record what they're doing on the TV and is there an app for this for phones? Basically what i want to do is record a game that im playing on my TV (Xbox 360) and get it on my phone to show a buddy.

I found out that I'd need to buy and install some sort of capture card in my PC to do this but is there anyway to connect my phone directly to my TV and capture what I'm watching on my TV? Maybe this should be moved to the regular question section.

Depends on the game but call of duty mw3 has a built in recorder and saves the entire game for playback then if you like a segment you can upload from the game for sharing. Hope that helps.

A phone cannot capture a televisions video input. You need the capture card and then move the captured video to your phone.

Just did. You need to sign in with one of the accounts listed and then download an app called "Pass". You can then get a code and redeem for movies on video unlimited.

it is mentioned on phones4you website, but its hard to find, you need to find the t&c's for the £50 google play voucher n it tells you about the music n video, gourmet society, half price smartband and i think it had a bit about the michael jackson album too

Xperia lounge, clicked movies and logged into Sony Entertainment account. I was then prompted to download app called Pass from play store. It gave me a code and once entered provided the free flicks in my collection.

Were you able to download the games? Mine show as redeemed, but not in my download list.

For games download you must install playstation mobile app. Just search in browser and go on Sony website. Films should be in Xperia lounge. And Michael Jackson album should be available from 5.13. for every owner of z2.

I redeemed the movie but I can't find them in the Video Unlimted and if I click on the collection it goes to movie app and there is nothing there too, but if I check my Sony Network , in media section they can be found and there is a download button for them too but if you click on that it will give you a small xpd file that is belong to play station and you can't run it.
since update to 6.2.A.0.8, bought movies only show up,once downloaded.the "online media library" cant be accessed, to download other / rest of movies.
solution a) for now, ive downgraded movies app, and all is working fine again.
better SOLUTION:
Video Unlimited apk has to be installed manually.
Version Video Unlimited 11.0.B.0.4 is mandatory.
Neither games or videos are there on my z2 no mention of free videos

signed in and synced, no movies, no code
Same problem until I update the Xperia launch it was showing the offer and when I click the offer it asking me to update the launch. After update I can't find the movie offers.
Maybe its region specific? I went into lounge, clicked offer, signed in, downloaded app called Pass, received code, redeemed code, all six in my collection in movies app. Wish I could be of further assistance.

i done steps 1-4 but never recieved a code to redeem. if i uninstall updates on lounge i can see the video offer, when i click it tells me to update the lounge to recieve a code, ive uninstalled updates and then tried updating it again 3 times.... just doesnt give me a code
I didn't update lounge. It gave me a link to the Pass app on Play store. Icon looks like a filmstrip and even though I downloaded it, there is no icon in app drawer. It must be one time only video unlimited add on.

I've tried several 4k videos and there was no lag/stutter or issues with regards to overheating.
Try an alternative video player? I recommend BS Player, excellent player. Plays every format and even supports subtitles. :laugh:

MX Player is also awesome. I bet it also boils down to codec, bitrate, size etc. so keep that in mind.

1. YouTube compresses all videos, so you're not getting full quality
2. The Android YouTube-app only supports 720p.
3. Download a genuine 4K video and transfer it to your Ultra. YouTube is ****ty for this purpose.

I tested a little but really don't know much about video. Did notice tubemate will let you choose 4k to download but uses another app to prices it for storage , then MX will only use s/w decoding to play it. Dolphin browser with hacked flash player will play 4k from YouTube but then I have poor network for tested.

Doesn't help. The resolution will be "4K", but it won't be near full quality. You won't get true untouched 4K from YouTube. Google " 4K test file" or something instead, and do not use streaming services to test video quality.

Yeah never overheated or lagged when playing 4k content my Z ultra. Only thing i noticed was that sometimes it caused the homescreen to redraw when i pressed home. Sometimes.

You may be playing true 4k or above. Some devices won't even play videos that have resolutions higher than 4k. Try 3840 x 2160 for example.
I uploaded directly to YouTube from my S5, and it looks awful. In gallery, it looks great. I recorded it in 1080P. I made sure HD was on in YouTube, and I searched the settings high and low for a quality setting, but nothing. What gives??

How horrible? It won't look as good as on your phone because YouTube compresses everything and is limited to 30 fps

There's definitely a big difference. I played it back on my phone and TV and it's not nearly as good as the original quality

Idk about other places but I do believe you have to wait for HD when uploading to youtube. Since they process every video so it can play in 240p all the way up to whatever resolution you upload at.

It's great....use it...alot lol. I've had one for a while now, and mostly use it to stream Netflix from my phone to the TV. Just make sure you have a good, stable wifi connection because it can act funny with the streaming when you dont. I've noticed that when I've used it at friends houses with ragedy wifi connections.
Sweet. I have a router for the living room. I'm thinking about getting one for the wait and letting Santa give me number 2. ?
They've released "guest mode", router free direct connect, for many devices.

a lot of official apps will cast natively, ie, netflix, youtube. i haven't tried the screencast yet on the G3. i am coming from a GNex.
localcast can cast pictures, stored movies, and videos from streaming sites (ie via sh0wb0x).
buy the ALLcast app it's awesome
