Outputting video (Xbox) to a laptop.

Post by Damocles »

How would I output a signal to my laptop? I have the function of outputting to an external monitor, but have no clue how to configure my laptop monitor to display a signal.

I don't know of any laptop monitors that are made to take external input. Then again, I hate laptops and don't keep up with them.

You could use a cardbus TV tuner to display composite video on the laptop. If you were hoping for VGA (does an xbox output VGA?) you're probably out of luck.

Xbox does output VGA with a special cable that converts HD>VGA.. its pretty good quality.
