Most optimal way to record with the PVR 2 Gaming edition?

In my experience, files from the original Hauppuage HD PVR and the PVR 2 are difficult to work with. Players don't seem to have any problems but editors do.

But that's the problem, it not the editor this time. Once the files are converted, when I play them in video players they are playing out of sync just like when I try to edit the original in the editor.

I don't understand the logic behind costing more than the product offer. It nothing more than a software problem. For example your tool you provided with the link offer even more capability than the boxed product offer, yet, it free. If you are new in the PC world you'd know that most of the time hardware devices are always pushed beyond the cost by third party softwares that none came with the boxed product, so it nothing new.

That easy it cost money to buy codec licensing fees in order to used it in a commercial products it not as free as some think.
Did know that HD-PVR encoder chip support also other format like MPEG-2 Encoding and even Full Transcoding, So we get no MPEG-2 nor Upscaling.

Meh, none sense. Hauppauge knows they are quasi monopole in the capture market and they take the expensive standard license just to make themselves easier imo. Adding or supporting more low cost or open free codec licenses to add more varieties wouldn't cost that much. They could just release the box only and leave the 3rd party software market to do the decoding part for what it worth.
