All you need is a decent computer monitor with a VGA input

  • hey i have both my pc and xbox 360 plugged in to my pc monitor. I wonder if theres like a recording program. Like i turn the recording program on when on the pc screen and then switch over to the xbox 360 screen and it starts recording from there? If you know something like this please reply as fast as possible. Cheers!

  • @oHaiinexD You need additional hardware for that to be possible, check out my channel. I have a video of how to capture console gameplay, it works with any device that outputs with the yellow, red, and white composite format.

  • @gunslinge109

    Thanks so much for the amazon links!!

    really appreciate it.

  • U look like my cousin Christopher

  • that music is annoying as shit.

  • @gunslinge109 Cant you just buy the "TRENDnet 2-Port DVI USB KVM Switch with Audio Kit TK-204UK" instead of buying "The female adapter" and "Stereo coupler F/F?"

  • music is very distracting

    

  • @gunslinge109 hey.. I have the same switch and it worked fine on first day but now when i switch to my xbox it keeps flashing/blinking so please help me!!

  • @JDMorris81 the hdmi port in your pc is most likely an output, if its from a graphics card its most definately likely to be an output

  • you can buy the vga xbox cable off ebay for about 3 quid, they work, ive been using it, bet it feels crap to have payed 30-40 quid on an overpriced piece of microsoft shit (no offence intended, just trying to save you precious moneys)

  • @gunslinge109 hello i am getting a pcmonitor with xbox and all the game and that. and i know how to hook up a xbox to a pc monitor but where does the actual power come from do i have to plug the xbox in to the mains and pug the computer in the mains aswell or just plug the computer in the mains

    thank you
