"Render to Video" Finally comes to Halo 3 Fileshare

Yup. Awesomeness.

Chris can't spill the beans, but that doesn't mean other people can't as well! Roger Wolfson, Online Team extraordinaire and certified mathemagician has another really awesome feature that that film clip fans have been requesting for some time. From the Wolf's mouth:

Hello again, Roger here with an update on the Bungie Pro subscription service we inaugurated a year ago. To recap, Bungie Pro allows subscribers expand their Halo 3 File Share from 6 slots and 25MB of storage to 24 slots and 250MB of storage, to the tune of 750 Spacebucks for the year, which is around 78 cents per month. Halo 3 file sharing has been tremendously popular, with over 53 million pieces of content shared online in the first year alone! That year is up for the first subscribers, which makes this a great time to announce a soon-to-arrive feature that we're going to add to Bungie Pro.

And that new feature is? Render-to-video! At long last, you won't need to have a video capture card to free your saved film from the confines of your Xbox. Integrated right into the Bungie.net file-sharing experience alongside current features like "Copy to My File Share" and "Download to Halo 3" will be "Render to Video" where your short Saved Films or Film Clips (length and quantity to be determined) can come to life as a computer-playable WMV file which can be downloaded to your computer, or seen on Bungie.net alongside other game content like your Screenshots.

We're still finalizing quite a few implementation details and trying to determine at what temperature a server melts into a pool of slag that will drip through the datacenter floor. So stay tuned over the next few weeks as we get those last details sorted out. In the mean time, enjoy the Title Update, and keep that great content on your file shares.

I ♥ Bungie, and this is why.

There are ton of other changes coming to the Fileshare, read about them in the latest Weekly Update!

Nice! The money i spent on Bungie pro will finally start paying off. Capping it off is usually a pain in the butt, so this will be great.

Pay to play! Gotta love it! Capitalism in action. Windfall profits, anyone?

I forgot I even had Bungie Pro, but I copped it a while after launch for the extra storage. This is a much needed feature, and I'm all for finally being able to share my videos!

Nice! Another cool thing from the update:

DLC Big Team

* All non DLC maps in this playlist now skip after veto

Will this keep Valhalla and Sandtrap from showing up after every veto?

This reminds me of the update that made it so when you vetoed shottys and snipers, you wouldn't get shottys and snipers.

If you bought the Legendary Map pack you got Bungie Pro, right? Or am I making that up? This is very exciting for me. I've got some great moments I want to capture.

I think you got Bungie pro for like 90-days, or something like that, for purchasing the Legendary Map Pack.
