What is the best and cheapest way to record my xbox gameplay? I already have a 32" Vizio TV with HDMI output and a Macbook. I also have bootcamp on my Macbook so I can run XP or Vista. I also have Windows Laptop too but I would like to use my Mac if possible. Thx.

I too would like to know, the only thing I am aware of is if recording to a pc you need a video capture card I think.

Not completely sure, a friend of mine streams on JTV, I'll ask him sometime, however I'd reccomend looking at capture cards other than a Dazzle,hmm.. maybe easycap as well, it's cheap.

The BEST way to record gameplay is with a Hauppauge HD PVR. You can buy a dazzle for like $50, but if you want nice quality, it's worth the money...

Sample of gameplay (mine): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PufvCsvMmYc

Download Debut videp capture software (free) and use your WebCam. I use my WebCam on my netbook and just point it at the TV and BAM! I didnt have to waste my money on anything else such as a video capture card.

If the PVR is out of your price range, try a gamebridge? Dunno if they still make them, but i used mine for a while before I got a PVR.

You get what you pay for, in this case, I didnt pay a penny. And the qaulity didnt matter that much for the purpose I using it for. Damn cheaters on GameBattles ALWAYS think I dont record my matches and then dispute. Boy, are they in for a nasty surprise.
