XBOX 360 on an iMac?

[Ronald S. Jr.]

So I'm wondering how I might get my XBox 360 displayed on my iMac without losing much image quality. I tried finding an HDTV Tuner, but no luck for some reason. I find TV tuners, but they're just a coaxial, which will ruin my image quality.

I tried asking on XBox forums and Mac Forums, but no dice. Can anyone give some advice?

You cannot use your iMac's display as a display for another device since there is no input. If you're looking for an HDTV tuner, check out Eye TV Hybrid (http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/products/hybrid/product1.en.html). I have one on my home theater Mac Mini and it does a great job (using a roof-top antenna).

Most (almost all) laptops can only output signal, ie. to an second screen.

In theory, though, I COULD connect it via coaxial and use it that way through the normal tuners such as the one Tony suggested, but I wouldn't get optimum image quality.

Right?

Haupage make some PCI TV cards with a variety of high quality inputs, not sure if they do USB versions, or if they are Mac compatible.
