Also, just to clarify, we also have done many captures of regular (non-MMO) multi-player games.

Solip,

We have done it with multi-player game (for an MMO that was going dark) though the focus of this grant is on games before 2005. However we see video capture as an important tool for preserving information about multi-player games going forward.

Oh wow thanks for the great news!

Just one quick question: does video capture also involves with multi-play gaming experience too? It might give us some hint for our future project ☺
