X360 to PC screen with HDMI cable HALP!
What you need:
Xbox 360
DVI to HDMI cable
x360 vga cable
What you want to archieve:
Xbox connected to my pc screen with hdmi to dvi cable with audio.
Problem:
Cant get audio working w/o microsoft expensive audio cable. (about 40 :eek: )
Reason for problem:
1. HDMI to DVI cable doesnt transfer audio.
2. Vga cable's xbox end is too large to have dmi and vga cable connected at the same time.
Solutions(yay!):
take xbox 360 rca cable that came with xbox 360 arcade, remove that plastic "shell" from the xbox end of the cable (i hope you understand this), then plug it into console and take rca to 3.5mm adapter (has 2 rca inputs) and plug it into pc screen (one that has speaker of course) or any other audio output device (couldn't make up any better word) and then connect hdmi to dvi cable to screen and xbox.
Hopefully you understand this stuff :wave:
Btw my first tutorial on the internet.

Too bad my new card doesn't has an svideo output.
Zeph, please stop, you'll just get rysterf to get more threads closed.
Please talk like someone your age (Because you have the knowledge of someone your age)

Sorry I just plug my xbox to my tv.
What makes him an idiot is that he never stops trying to, even when we all tell him he's not getting anywhere.
