    Hey how do you guys make your videos, do you just use theatre to take clips then upload them and edit, or do you use something else?

    You would need a capture card, if you want the best quality that is. Or you can just pull out the video camera. Or, a long, long time ago someone told me there was a way to transfer your Halo 3 clips and videos onto your computer. If anyone knows how to do this that would be great, because I personally don't remember.

    I just got a DVD recorder and it works great...I already made a video and posted it in the video section but it may not be as user friendly as a Capture card but if your computer isnt near your TV it may be your best option...

    if you have a dvd recorder lying around then you can record DVD's of you playing and then rip them to your computer, otherwise get a capture card. For a fairly cheap and reliable capture card look up the Dazzle DVC on google.

    geevee is basically a youtube that is only for video game videos.

    Geevee grab is a service that accesses your fileshare, and downloads and posts the clips for you...I don't know if someone does this manually or if they have a way to automate it

    Geevee's been kind of crazy lately. It was perpetually in beta stage, which meant that it would be available about once a month for a request window of about 5 minutes. Now, it's supposedly released, but does the same thing, only it says its down for technical maintenance/updates

    there are many capturing services out there...google

    bulltrue.net does pretty much the same thing
