From Xbox360 to Laptop

Post by ahmad0410 »

I'm getting an Xbox360 tomorow (yes, prostreet made me do it), and I'm thinking on how I can connect my Xbox360 to my PC. The main reason is to take screenshot from Xbox360 from the computer.

Is it even possible? If yes, what things are needed?

Thanks!! :D

you can connect it to a pc monitor but not sure about a laptop
but you can still take pictures normally if you have xbox live since their is a photo mode on the 360 version i think ^_ ^

Through Xbox LIVE? What if I don't have a LIVE account?

From what I know, you can connect a PC to an Xbox (really cool, did it on friday night) but not an Xbox to a PC. Unless you have a certain type of desktop monitor...

And BTW: If it is a premium, you have a Gold demo and a Silver membership.

That makes no sense what-so-ever, how can it only work one way?
Even then it's bloody limited, I mean you can't even copy music from your PC to your 360....

Have you ever ran a 360 in Media Center mode? Both the PC and the X360 are set up to run one way, not stream media both ways.
