Ok basically you need an AV splitter that has both S-Video and AV from your Xbox. S-Vid goes into your CC and the AV goes into ya TV. Thats the way I used to do it. If you need pics I have some to show you what to do

OK heres some pics:
Direct Setup






TV/ Computer Setup






If you want you can split the signal and have the video sent to the TV and your computer at the same time you can by using the leads shown above.
Just connect the Xbox yellow video lead and the Video Phono Lead into the Phono Splitter and then plug the Splitter into the Capture Card and the Video Phono Lead into the TV.

Now you should be able to capture video and audio from Halo while still able to use the TV.

If You want to use a VCR/DVD





Hope this helps and have fun capturing!

you can record like that, but in order to get sound you will need to have RCA cables

YOU CAN RECORD THROUGH AN S-VIDEO CABLE! but to get sound you have to split your audio so you only need the red and white cords really

Hey this guys from the UK, cool I just plug my audio cables straight into my CC so I can here sound from my Laptop Those should be fine, you might also want to get some female to male ones (pointy bit to non-pointy bit!) You shouldnt need them but you might want them in the future!!!

and dude cus you're from the uk your gonna have to play on pal 50 if you have an external cap card so dont worry if ya capture software is just a black screen

[DeXtA]

Not neccesarily Grim my friend!!! I have discovered a way that you can still play on Pal 60 and cap at the same time! Just plug your video in to a DVD or VCR then take a video extension cord an plug that into the video out on your DVD or VCR then that into your CC Thats how im doing mine now. Its still quite hard to see on your TV (depends on the quality of your DVD/VCR, mines some Asian make that I havnt heard of!!!) Its a bit fuzzy but at least its Pal 60 Good luck.
