Component Video Splitting for Capture

[cdog]

I need a device that can split the component video output of an Xbox so that it can go to both the TV and the component input on my Radeon X850 for capture.

I'm kinda ******** with video related things .... is this just a splitter cable or do I need a box that splits the signal?

Any links to specific products would be great. Cheap is good.

Get yourself some RCA Y-Splitters at Radio Shack.

You'll need three of 'em. Since it's not "Component Video" Specific, you'll need to keep track of your R, G, & B connections...

Run one side to the TV and one side to the computer.
