Audio/Video on 360

[Sniper82]

Can I hookup my 360 to HDMI and use the A/V cable that came with the 360 to hook to some PC speakers? My HDTV doesn't have RCA audio out just optical. This is from a pro so I don't have the HDMI/A adapter/cable.

You can't plug in both because the cables that came w/ the 360 cover up the HDMI port.

Are you SURE it doesn't have RCA audio out? Very rare for TVs to not have that. Check the manual.

I did. I looked on the back of the TV for 5-10 mins thinking my 10 year old RCA 27" has them so a new HDTV should(somewhere). When I didn't see any I looked online and in the manual. It doesn't, just optical out.

Kinda dumb IMO. Anyone know if a optical to RCA exists?

This converter may work.

Someone tried to connect an HDMI cable and the A/V cable using a 'hack': http://www.chadledford.com/?p=50
