You need to buy a framegrabber. I use the Dazzle 80, which is a USB model. It is on the low end of framegrabbers, but will work fine for Halo movie making. It costs around $70 retail, but you can probably find it for cheaper.

You can capture videos on your PC using software, but only PC video. If you want to capture vid from your xbox, you will need a framegrabber.

I have never seen a camera where it has an input for AV cables, I know they have Output AV, but that wont help at all.
