Xbox360 has no signal to my TV?

How do i get surround sound connected to my Flat screen tv and xbox360 correctly?

  • I have a Hd Flatscreeen tv with freeview built in works perfect then my xbox connects to my tv via hd cables to the pr pb y etc works perfect... i have just bought a Philips home theartre system connected it up like says in manuel and when i play a dvd it sounds awsome. but cant get my tv/xbox through the surround speakers. i have a hdmi cable running from my dvd/home theartre system into my tv. speakers are all connected as the dvd works perfect. then someone said connect red and white wires from tv to the dvd/home thearte system . done this and i still cant get xbox to work but then i tested the tv and i was watching a freeview channel and sound was coming out the tv as per normal turned on the surround sound and itv1 started playing through surround sound . the guy at currys says all i needed was hdmi lead and all would work but it does not please help.... have i connected wrong ? i know i do not have a optical connection on home theatre system but i just want sound ?

  • Answer:

    because you cimema system doesn't have a optiacl input then the best you will get from the tv and xbox is only 2.1 ( basicailly the front speakers working ). Yes the white and red phono output fron your tv to the phono input of your cimema system is the best you've got. wg

If you have an HDMI port on your TV it should have Sound out, if worse comes to worse however, you can always by a splitter for your cables. However, those tend to be expensive, I'm still saving up for my DVI-to-HDMI cable at a hefty 120 dollars. I don't have a 360 however I have hooked it up to my LCD HDTV with no issues-- I see another issue here is if you don't have the Elite, you wont have HDMI ports on the Xbox. All I can think is to recheck your wirings or better yet, connect everything through the theatre system into the television.
