I have a PSP 3000, with which I know you can hook up to a TV so that the PSP's display screen shows on the TV. But is it possible to do the same with a computer screen, like a laptop? The reason why I ask is because I want to create a play-through video for a game I own, and the only way I can think to do so is record through my laptop screen with some video capturing software. But if there is a way to capture the video and audio from the TV, directions on how to do so would be greatly appreciated. I'd also like to be able to edit the video afterwards so that I can add text here and there.

I Don't think that such a thing is possible.I would do this aswell if i were to make a PSP Game-play video.Don't take my thought to truth though.I'd leave this question to the pros on this site.They're really good with this type of stuff(Although they can get a bit too geeky at times LOL
It's quite simple, all you need is a video capture card and a PSP video out cable. Just plug in the video and audio cables, then record away.Granpire

PSP 3000 are the only ones that can output games with them though I haven't tired it yet. 2000's only video http://www.amazon.com/PSP-Composite-AV-Cable-Sony/dp/B000VIUNZI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1293421172&sr=8-1
You'll need a video capture card that supports component, as component input is the only type that the PSP will support game output. That said, you'll need a slightly better capture card that supports HD input, like this one.

I also want to record my psp on my pc but what's the cheapest way? The link is too expensive for me.

If he has a 3000 he can output games with composite, but if he has a 2000 yeah only component.

That's true, I had forgotten that aspect. If you have a PSP 3000, you can use the setup you had previously posted, except the PSP video-out cable is different, you'll need a composite cable, not component. This cable isn't available on Gamestop's site, but you can find it possibly in-store, or somewhere else.

Not shown on the website. It really depends on what got traded in to which particular store, as far as finding something like that...

[QUOTE="rubedisky"] can the psp 3000 use component cables? Yes, component cables were originally the only way to play actual games- versus videos and XMB stuff, which was all you could do with composite output. The PSP 3000 adds the ability to play games through a composite output, it's one of the 3000's lesser-known features. So basically, yeah, the 3000 can use either component or composite output to play games.

So basically, yeah, the 3000 can use either component or composite output to play games. but component is much better quality than composite. So why would I use composite? I might buy the XCM USB Vbox2 Advanced. But the quality is low and it costs 85 dollars. So I am doubting.
The quality of the PSPs screen is 480 x 272, you won't lose any quality by using composite, unless you're using a DVR or some form of actual HD output. If you have a 3000, just use a composite to record, you'll save a lot of money, and you won't miss any quality.

I'm not really concerned about quality (as long as the picture is pretty clear), so what would be a reasonably good price to pay for the video capture card? And would it need to be installed into a computer, or can it work as a stand-alone device? Are there any good brands you can recommend, or ones to stay away from?

Which model of PSP do you have? For the 2000, you have no choice but to record through component, which will cost you more. If you have a PSP 3000, you're free to use a composite connector, which is much simpler, as you can go with a much cheaper capture card.
