after restoring iOS a SECOND time, I installed an HTTP proxy to see what was going on. Set a breakpoint for every time it calls to any Apple server. Sure enough, upon connecting the adapter it fetches this XML file: mesu.apple.com/assets/com_appl

That has to be the culprit. So I edit the hosts file on the iPod to block mesu.apple.com, test everything out, and it works like a charm. Connected the Elgato to a PC since the Mac doesn’t like it, and here we are. The most bootleg setup.

I made a screen recording playing with the iPhoto app so I could take clips from it later. Here’s that very, very long screen recording: youtube.com/watch?v=DYob_OpOFu

The YouTube compression isn’t even that bad here, the raw output just isn’t exceptional (see the still frame). Oh well.

So, just to recap, for the BEST possible iOS 6 screen recording:
0. Ideally, use a 30-pin retina device since the 30-pin adapter doesn’t have the compression issue.
1. Buy a Lightning AV adapter, capture card.
2. Add mesu to the device’s hosts file
3. Use Windows + the Elgato software to record.
