I cant seem to get the hd feature to work on my 360 i have a 480p flatscreen but i cant get it to play sound?

Question

i have a 480p flatscreen but i cant get it to play sound. i can get the picture up just fine and dandy but its no good with no sound so do i need something else or am i just hooking it up wrong. i matched up the red blue and green colors on my tv ands only got a super clear picture. i already set it to hd on the 360 and the the cable so thats not it. on the back of my tv are three white slots, three red and a green and a blue. can someone help me?

Answer 1

Ya also need to still connect the remaining unconnected red and white cables with the component input as they carry the sound!  Component video splits the color into 3 analog color signals, but the sound carried over is still basic analog stereo.  If you have a newer 360 and an HDTV with the connection, you should just forget componenet and go with HDMI as it is better for video and audio.

Answer 2

Red Green and Blue wires are only component video cables, if you hooked up your 360 with an hd wire your video should be fine also your sound should be comming from the same hd wire, An alternate meathod is that you connect a red and white wire those are sound wires one for left and one for right connect that to your tv, its impossible that your tv does not have a pannel tht doesn't contain red and white wire slots for your sound, if you need any more help or if you want me to give you pictures followed by a tutorial email me at [e-mail]
