Console to PC Connection

Is it possible to connect my games consoles (PS2/Xbox/Gamecube) to my PC or to my PC monitor (I have 2 free analog ports) direct.

Any Ideas ???
Thanks

If you want to use your PC, you'll need a capture card (PB-TV100 for example) & software such as Dscaler.

For direct connection, you'll need a ProV which converts s-video or composite to VGA.

There are dedicated "converters" available for some consoles but the ProV will work with any source.

You can get VGA box's of ebay for about £30 brand new I brought one when I didn't have a spare tv for my PS2. Its lets you use the monitor for PC and upto 4 consoles or video camera etc.
