You can connect your Xbox to a MacBook by using an HDMI capture card. Plug the Xbox into the capture card, and the capture card into your MacBook's USB port. Then, use a software like OBS Studio to view or record the gameplay.
Honestly, it’s easier just to use Remote Play. No extra hardware needed, just download the Xbox app and play away!
Connecting an Xbox to a MacBook directly isn't usually possible as HDMI ports on MacBooks are output-only. Using an HDMI capture card is the best workaround.
