Low quality of saved replays/highlights

[beauboy00]

I noticed that all of my highlights and replays saved to the XMB are a terrible resolution of 640 width and only take up around 10-15 MB in space.

Is there any way to save higher quality replays for the sake of uploading them to youtube?

its higher than Standard Definition :P

you need an HD Dazzle... and they aren't cheap LOL

yeah I believe standard def. is 480 width

I was just saying it would be nice if we could choose the resolution of saved videos, since a lot of ps3s have large hard drives and size isn't an issue (I have the default 120GB slim model)

I shouldn't have to buy high priced 3rd party hardware to save the already saveable replays at a better quality...know what I mean?

We compress the videos on the PS3 once you upload them they will return to their regular resolution.

thank you for responding, although I'm not sure I understand fully.

If I copy a saved highlight from the XMB to my thumb drive, then copy it to my PC, the .mp4 file is still the same compressed file size as it was on the PS3. When does it become decompressed? (larger file size/higher resolution)

- Copy it to a flash drive off of your XMB
- Upload it (via YouTube, Tiny Pic, etc...)
