    Recording from xbox 360

    So after some reading I've come to the conclusion that there HAS to be some way to record gameplay and such from my 360 to my PC.
    I'm on Windows 7 so I have windows media center, it's all set up and connected together, and my monitor is the same monitor for both my PC and 360. I've read a lot about tuner cards and such, but here's the question:
    If both my PC and my 360 are on the same network as well as the same monitor, is there some easy way to record stuff from my 360 to my PC? I have an 8800 so I do have an S-video output if its needed, but my monitor doesn't have an S-video input.
    Any help would be appreciated; thanks!

    Your monitor only displays, it doesn't forward the signal it shows back tot he computer. You need a video input device for the computer, and the graphics card is only video output. Being networked and on the same screen has nothing to do with the system being able to send video and audio data to the PC. The 360 doesn't send its video data out via the network, it does it via the A/V multi-out port.

    Yeah, I figured as much. Just thought I might be able to do something since Windows Media Center seems to record live TV. Ah well.
