I GOT MY 360 BACK - BUT..................

[RemaL]

I have changed my TV since it last worked back in may. Don't ask. So hooked it up with the leads I had come with it. and the picture quality is crap but I got sound. OK

So I also bought a lead that hooks to my PC port on my HDTV. great the picture quality is good but no sound.

the lead also had a red and white lead but when I hook it to either of the red or white ports on the back of the TV I still get no sound. I have played with the menu on my TV but no sound still.

please could anyone give me a link tot he lead they use to hook their HDTV to their 360


please

I got either crap quality picutre or no sound on Forza so not enjoying a game I would love

Sounds like you're using the VGA HD cable, which was what I had to use (my TV had HD, but only through the DVI port). Mine worked fine. You could try changing round the red and the white. Other than that I can only imagine you've got a duff cable.

Ok not tryed changing the red and white over.

Anyone???

Not a 360 owner, but, if this was a PC, I'd say fiddle with the sound settings/options. It might need to be told to do something different.

If that fails, it could well be a duff cable.

i dont quite understand, but if your using the official 360 cable, have you got the switch on the end that plugs into your 360 set to HDTV? HTH, but im not great at technical stuff so what i have just said may be complete boocks

Has your tv got something like a 3.5 jack socket(headphone) near the pc connection. If so you need a red/white phono into a 3.5 jack lead. Thats what i've got anyway.

Yup, my HDTV (a Samsung) has an audio in on the VGA channel via a jack plug, not the red and white phonos.

You need an adaptor matey.
Or, even better, an optical lead into a 5.1 surround amp.
