Can we still render Theater videos from the game itself? I don’t think the Bungie render points work anymore.
Not since the transition from Bungie to 343i was finalized.
Sorry! 
Isn’t 343i a lovely bunch?
No nameplates. No video rendering. Screwing up playlists left and right.
This is the best (worst) company in Halo history!

Well, you also have to keep in mind that this game was given to them when their sole purpose was to continue the Halo series with Halo 4, 5, and 6. They didn’t have to make a Title Update, or Zero Bloom, or anything like that.
I don’t get why Bungie gave Reach over to 343i. They could’ve kept it and let 343i do everything Halo from then on. But nope, they gave it over while 343i doesn’t have all the features integrated.

Their contract ended, I believe, so they had to hand everything over, except for some stuff, like the rendering system.
I never really used bungie’s render service. Once I got my own HD capture card I recorded and rendered all my own stuff. I’m glad I did too because their service apparently doesn’t exist anymore. I’m still one of the few people on youtube uploading weekly Halo 3 and Reach vids =)
If you want to get your stuff recorded capture card is really the best / only way to do it now. Think of it this way, the capture card is a one time payment to capture and render unlimited gameplay for any game, not just ones that support a theater mode.
Capture card > company service that may not last forever.

That’s pretty much wrong.
Yes, they did have to. How else was they going to make Halo 4 if they didn’t have any game to copy from? I mean why else would Halo 4 be so much the same as Halo Reach - The game that prequels Halo CE as opposed to Halo 3. The Actual prequel.
It’s their game to see fit that it’s successful, works well for fans and is up to scratch. It wasn’t just the franchise they signed over. Imagine if companies did that? Just buy a name brand and leave it be.
But hey, who am I to complain. Just a minority veteran fan of Halo since 2001. Put a lot of time, effort and money into the game. A game that’s so broke that they can’t be bothered to fix. “Yeah, we’re too busy and don’t have enough resources to fix the ruined update to keep you FANS happy because we’re putting all our effort into another game we’re trying to sell you”.
Rendering was awesome. Bungie’s service for that was epic. It’s strange that they transferred all stats, all servers for the transition, and “Rendering” got left out. I still have 105 minutes left, but what use are they now? 
wow i didnt get to use any of my minutes that sux. i hope they change that for halo 4
