XBOX 360 Question

I

Hey guys.

I'm looking at getting an xbox 360 in the near future, and I'm trying to figure out how I am going to wire it to work with my current tv setup.

Currently, I have my TV mounted on the wall, with RGB running thru the wall, under the house, and into a closet, where my HD directv DVR, Onkyo reciever, DVD player, etc. are installed.

My first question is, if I use wireless controllers, (which I assume are rf?) will I encounter any problems not being in LOS with the XBOX?

My second question is can the XBOX 360 output to RGB rather than HDMI or DVI?

Thanks in advance, and if anybody here has done this before, let me know!

Paul

the controllers have about 30 foot range max (give or take). It can output via vga, component or HDMI.

The connections are not on the back. There is a single connection on the back that you can purchase several dongles for. The only exception is HDMI which has its own connection on the back. The VGA dongle is an additional $40.
 
I'm thinking when he's saying RGB, he means Component. In this case, yes your 360 comes with the component cable (as long as you don't buy the Core system).
You shouldn't have issues with your remotes, except you may have to change the batteries more often to ensure you have a strong wireless signal.

By RGB do you mean normal RCA cables? The included component (assuming premium) - you just leave off the additional two cables.

No, I guess I mean component. Red Green Blue, as opposed to yellow white red. But it sounds like component cables come with it, so that's cool.

Thanks guys!
