TV to PC

[scottish]

You could use a Scart > Composite/Phono Audio to plug it into a Hauppauge TV Tuner on the computer and watch it through that.

http://www.ebuyer.com/product/76058 - Sky Box to RCA.

http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=1218 - To convert the RCA audio to 3.5mm to go to TV Tuner.

The card, (or my card did) should come with an RCA video to S-Video adapter.

Sky Box > Scart to RCA lead > Video RCA into S-Video lead (comes with TV Card), Audio RCA into 3.5mm converter > TV Card.

but i need to get the video card, also using this will i be able to play xbox 360 on comp?

Xbox 360 im not sure, I did, but it didn't seem to like 60Hz.

You could go straight to the monitor through VGA.

PCWorld will sell the TV Card fo sho

aint local pcworld :P

how would you do the 3 things to vga? :P

[Recursion]

I use a VGA cable from my 360 to my monitor, which has those 2 Phono/RCA audio leads (but the Official 360 VGA cable comes with the audio adaper) with an adapter on to plug into my PCs line in.

I didn't know that you could transfer SCART to a PC because they are both different frequencies or something. forgive me if i'm wrong though

You can input it through a capture card or TV card.
