    Hi guys. im looking to buy an eascap (primarily to transfer old VHS tapes to my laptop) but heard there is problems with fakes and some not been able to capture PAL 60 in colour or something. So i was wondering does anyone know where i can buy one that isnt a fake and will record gameplay from Ps3/360? cheers :)

    i recently wasted 20 quid on a fake one! i have the proper version now which is around 30. the main difference is the real one is ezcap not easycap. also they look completely different!

    You can get it to play in Pal60. In pal60 it displays in Black and white. But if you get a program like amcap and select the device as the easycap and then go to video capture filter -> video standard select something like secam B it will display in colour. So if you still have the fake one try that and maybe you can get some sort of use from it.
