Tutorial: Record and Stream XBOX 360 Gameplay on your Macbook Pro

This is an update to an old video I produced several years ago where I showed how using a Slingbox HD Pro I was able to record my gameplay from my XBOX 360 onto my MacBook Pro and still be able to play in HD. Turns out using the Slingbox was more of a hassle than anything else, especially when it comes to streaming on sites just as Ustream or Justin.tv.

In this new tutorial I show all of you just how I have my setup going now. I have since ditched my Slingbox and went out and purchased a Hauppauge HD PVR and I could not be happier. Recording or Streaming in HD while playing in HD has never been easier. Cost is the same... $200.00 or less at Best Buy but the results are great. No additional software to buy either. For Mac users, Hauppauge offers a free download of a little program called HDPVRcapture and combining this with Camtwist and FlashMediaLiveEncoder you are all set to go like a pro! I absolutely love it. You can download HDPVRCapture at http://www.steventoth.net/hdpvrcapture

If I missed anything in this video, please let me know and I will make edits. I think I covered all the points. Comment away and visit our site (www.thegamerspulse.com) if this helped you. Happy recording!

@TripleDDDVideos Thank you!

@TheGamersPulseV2

I've decided to go with eyetv. Is that still good? And is the gaming edition of HDPVR good?

[TheGamersPulseV2]

@TripleDDDVideos It will work... but give me a few more days to post my new set up. It still uses the PVR but I believe this is the robust setup everyone (including myself) has been looking for. Should have the new vid up in a week tops.

@TheGamersPulseV2 Actually the link is in the description.

[TheGamersPulseV2]

@SurvivalMode4Dummies It is a demo unless you purchase the entire version. For monitoring are you selecting "monitor playback" in VLC?

[TheGamersPulseV2]

@CallMeWoodro Never had this happen.

@TripleDDDVideos Just do a google search for hdpvcapture. Stevens site has it.
