Thank you for the suggestions.  

My first experiments with video-out-to-capture resulted in a less than
desireable picture.  By the time the image is converted to NTSC, the
text is hardly readable and the resolution is crappy.   

The quality of the image output is equal to what you see in the game.  

I will look into Videowave.
