Can I use my IO DVR to record video and sound from my Xbox?

Is it possible to use my IO Scientific Atlanta High Definition DVR box to record video and sound from my xbox?

yes there is a way to do it, but i belive the connections are complicated. You would need to find an imput on your cable box and then program the box to record from the auxilliary imput. If you plan to do it this way, i suggest you call the io tech support first.

Also, if you have a vcr or a dvd recorder you could easily record it onto a vhs or dvd by plugging your xbox into the auxilliary port on your tv and recording it that way.

good luck
