totaltrials Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 So basically, my TV has a DVI input to run High definition video. I had a PS3 and ran a HDMI - DVI cable from my PS3 to my Xbox, this played the video perfectly fine. I ran the sound through the supplied component cable - my pc speakers (As DVI is video only). So basically it all worked fine with my PS3. I've now just got a 360 and the same setup with the video isn't working. HDMI from the xbox to DVI in my TV. Not getting any picture. I also tried using the same cable but instead of connecting it to my TV, I connected the DVI input into my pc monitor. That worked fine. Which leads me to think it's my TV not agreeing with the xbox. So.. What's different between the Xbox and PS3 that's making the Xbox not work with my TV where the PS3 does. And if anyone knows any solutions to this. I've ran the console with the Component have cable and it's just pathetic quality, I don't think I could put up with it. If I couldn't get the HDMI to DVI to work, what's the component HD have cable like, and what's the quality like with that cable compared to using a HDMI or the regular have cable.

l33th3tr33 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Most likely situation : your sony tv isn't happy you got rid of his brother, it sees the xbox as a 'stepbrother' and therefore hates it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish that was the case, if it was I'd just let the xbox give it a beating until it works. By the way it's a Philips TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
