Ok. I know you can play your XBox PC monitor. What I do want to know is, are there any programs for which I can make a video of clips from a game I play? Cause I know people who play PC games such as Madden can save plays and make it into one video file with music and stuff, not sure I'f I'm explaining this right, but I tried my best.

I'm pretty sure there is a hardware device that you can buy to get screen shots and stuff, but just hooking up your Xbox to your PC monitor isn't going to give you any more functionality. Your programs aren't stored on your monitor. Nothing is.

EDIT: I stole this from a post that Casper made in another topic.

I wasn't looking for anything complicated or expensive. There has to be another way cause I can hook up my cam corder to the TV and transfer it to the cam corder possibly and then I can connect my cam corder to my cpu using a USB port, but I need a program.....cause I think that would work. But what you posted looks like, but I'm not spending that much just to make clips of video games.

Sure you can do it using an ATI All in Wonder video card...

Kortiz is right, if your Xbox is connected through a VCR, just pop in a tape, and hit record. We (TheCovenant, BlueRanger, and I) did this for an English project last year. We recorded segments from Unreal Championship and Halo, then uploaded the tape via firewire to premiere or imovie.
