This will depend on which desktop model you are using.

Generally, unless the desktop has a HDMI IN connection, the results are unsatisfactory.  Most desktops' analogue inputs go through the TV Tuner Card and consequently there is a latency that makes gameplay uncomfortable.  Also it is difficult to get analogue inputs displayed full screen as they are designed for data capture - not video streaming.

You have AV and S-Video inputs but these are analogue inputs and I doubt if Media Centre will recognise them - you can try though.

The only thing I can think of is to find some analogue TV/ video software that will recognise these inputs.
