HDMI-Cloner
Hi, I have an external device that captures to a removable USB Key (64GB
formated in
NTFS). No computer needed for capturing, only for editing.
specs:
Video max( 1080p x264 @ 10Mbit/s)
Audio (aac 2 Channels @ 192Kbit/s)
MP4 container.
I bought the previous version of the product below, about two years ago and it is quite decent for my needs. It cost me about $120US.

It comes with a HDMI cable that decrypts copy protected streams. You just have to plug the included cable on a HDMI output port of a device (PVR, SetTopBox, DVD player, Game Console, etc) and it records both Audio and Video from the same cable.
I uploaded a sample from a recording that I made a while ago.
Sample is 1m31s 111MB (1080p)

You will probably need video tools to cut the video if necessary (remove commercials, etc...). The list below are the ones I use and they are freeware or OpenSource.
