How do I record what my TV is playing then upload to YouTube?

[iRonaldo]

As you can see, Im new to these forums and thought it would be an awesome place to learn new things about video capture.

Ok well... I want to start my own Sport Highlight Youtube channel.

What I want to know is;

How do I record what my TV is playing and then upload it to my computer then from my computer to youtube?

How much would it cost?

An answer would be very much appreciated.

Usually a capture card, edit, then convert to a format that YouTube supports.

And iRonaldo, in the future please use a title that descibes your subject. I've changed yours this time.

Or use a DVD recorder if you have one

First, you need video capture card.
Second, you need featured video editor, if you want to clip it.
Third, convert them to mp4 or flv.
Fourth, upload it to any video sharing website if you are getting paid for each of your videos coz they are making billions and trillions out of displaying your featured videos with advertisements.
Fifth, if you are not getting paid, DO NOT WORK FOR FREE, TO MAKE SOMEONE FILTHY RICH, there are plenty of other options to share your featured videos with others.

Isn't this 'illegal'?

hi Gavino

Isn't this 'illegal'?
Ofcourse, it is illegal unless and otherwise up-loader holds the copy rights.
Most of BD/HD-DVD/DVD comes with a copyright warning:
"All rights of the producers are Reserved. Unauthorized copying, hiring, lending, renting, and, Public Performance by any means including radio, television or internet broadcasting as a whole or as a part thereof, is strictly prohibited."

There are thousands of illegal videoson all major Video sharing web-sites.North America and FBI want to control over piracy by shutting down file-sharing web-sites.
but this sort of Video displaying web-site is real sucker to Artist, performers, producers and everybody is affected, and such web-site owners gets richer and richer.

But, as a silent coward North Americans we keep our figures crossed and mouth shut.
