How to record xbox 360 gameplay without capture card?

[any ANONYMOUS forum user]

I want to record my xbox 360 gameplay, but without having to buy a capture card (My PC's CD/DVD reader/drive is screwed, so I can't install the capture card's software).

I saw a guy on youtube saying that you can use a VHS player, buy some AV cables for an xbox and plug in a video camera's AV cables into the other side of the VHS player then going to "playback" on the camera and pressing record.

Please help me,
Thanks

If you want to record xbox 360 videos on your PC, you need a capture card. It doesn't matter whether your CD/DVD driver is screwed or not. The software can be downloaded from the Internet. Or you can ask your friend to copy software to a USB flash drive and install software from it.

There are also other ways to record your gameplays. You can do it with a video camera, DVD Recorder, VHS recorder, PVR,... connected to your gaming console (or to the output of your TV).
