You should be ok recording, but viewing back may be a problem. The intel graphics chipset aint the best, and it really struggled on one of my old laptops with it.

I havent tried the recordings on VLC, but i expect that it just cant handle the stream.

alot of people seem to be having this problem that when you use other media players/upload to youtube after recording in MP4 format, the video only shows the very top left half. Recording in M2TS solves this, despite the player saying its Playstation 3, even if your using an xbox M2TS works perfectly so id suggest using this.

yes probably the best advice to follow right now.

Alot of people have updated the software and its very buggy.
