[AirBahg]

THANK YOU

[robarsenal14]

Your a fucking legend, just been faffing about for the past half an hour unplugging cables and putting them back it. Turns out I had to go to a home menu on my TV and click Component. Sounds stupid like. Ahh well done now, Thanks so much

[tg947]

kinda good :)

[XxSnipeDatFacexX]

why do u sound like darth vader having a bad cough??!!

[chinoman1129]

@XxSnipeDatFacexX thanks!

[XxSnipeDatFacexX]

@chinoman1129 lol didnt mean it in a bad way i was being creative :D

[chinoman1129]

@XxSnipeDatFacexX I never perceived it as bad. I thought it was a compliment

[XxSnipeDatFacexX]

@chinoman1129 of course! who wouldnt be the most awesomest black dude in the planet! its a dream come true :D!

[Oisink3d]

everytime i press 1080p my screen goes black. can somebody help me get my xbox onto 1080 please

[Gamer4evr55]

Thanks so much man!

[dailga]

i can hear it just cant see it and idk what to go to it says no signal

[halo6534]

Lol did you really just say that playing on hd will make your games run better? Hahaha! They run the same no matter what your playing on. You need to learn more about what exaculty resolution is buddy.

[chinoman1129]

@halo6534 I find it kinda stupid how you criticized my knowledge of this kind of stuff now when this video itself was made 3 years ago. I didn't know much about TVs back then, but what I meant in the video is something called input lag. I had that when I was playing on composite as opposed to component.

[CrumpetsNteaHA]

Ur voice is very relaxing :]

[BigPlanetZZ]

i get no sound. help?

[vNitroz]

@BigPlanetZZ Same here bro

[suppaniggatroy]

[chinoman1129]

@suppaniggatroy Haha. Well, you didn't have to post a rude comment asshole.

[DyrtyGhettoKyd]

[XxChelseaDude79xX]

Will it work with a Panasonic?

[1543114]

wow. i may have just found my savior because i am dumber than a bundle of stcks. this video guided me through the whole set up. thanks

[edgbarrowwight]

mines HD ready, does that mean it wont work unless i do something expensive?

[RainbowRoan]

@edgbarrowwight 1. you need a hd ready tv

2. you need a hdmi cable from xbox 360 to hdtv/hd ready tv.

3. set xbox to 1080p :D

[edgbarrowwight]

@RainbowRoan i did all that, it looks allright except now batman has a jagged edge all over his body

[santifoos]

reaches 1080p hdmi cable?

[xPiloniZz]

I have connected the hd cable to my xbox 360 but the sound will not go through my headset could you help me fix the problem?

[haidenblayde]

@xPiloniZz Sound doesn't transmit through the standard Xbox headset, other than a party or chat with another person.

[jWOW44]

iv done all dat nd the hd works but ters no sound...?

[empirerommel]

Thanks man!This really work!

[Vegitoisthestrongest]

[fatteboi25]

You the best.

[XxQuesinxX]

if i may ask why do u hav a towel under ur power brick nd 360

[MrLuhLz]

@XxQuesinxX So it doesnt overheat, which would be getting the RROD

[XxQuesinxX]

@MrLuhLz So if i put a towel under my powerbrick and Xbox 360 there is a less chance an getting the RROD?

[MrLuhLz]

@XxQuesinxX Exactly

[XxQuesinxX]

@MrLuhLz Thank you for helping me out i Subscribed.

[XxQuesinxX]

@MrLuhLz Thank you and I subscribed

[coltonte3]

If someone doesn't know how to plug in an Xbox, then they shouldn't have one in the first place.

[chinoman1129]

@IIxPeTRiFieDxII Only plug in everything except yellow. Yellow is for composite only.

[Vickust]

@IIxPeTRiFieDxII ok?

[tahishiem1234]

what king of camera are u using cause on my computer it looks horrible

[Vickust]

What's up with the towel under the power converter

[AxeltheRipper]

I got a question. Since im getting a new hdtv that i will use for my xbox/computer/tv. I will be using the vga for the computer and a hdmi for the xbox. Is this possible without a hdmi/vga switch box?

[PromoHackz]

couldnt here u with colume up on my turtle beach fail vid

[chinoman1129]

@PromoHackz Fail grammar :\

[LemNL1me]

@PromoHackz hmm thats weird maybe they're broken? Im using ear buds on like 10 volume (out of 100) and i hear him fine.

[andyruffa21]

speak louder

[Soulpunisher4]

PLEASE TELL ME, if i hook those component cables in my standard Tv will it progress to 480p?

btw my tv has all 3 jacks red,blue,green.

[Ddrew1317]

My Sony tv doesnt have the plug thing to plug in the other side of the cable?

[zzRAWGLITCHESzz]

OMGGGGGGGG YOUR A SMART GUY HOW DID YOU LEARN THIS

[NinjaRuben]

i need help i hooked up the hdmi cable to my tv and it worked its just that whenever i play cod or halo when i move the crosshairs it like drags across the screen instead of smoothly going across but with the red white yellow it doesnt drag can someone plz help on how to prevent that drag

[EliteForce1uk]

cant hear

[chinoman1129]

@EliteForce1uk It's common sense to turn up the volume if you can't hear you know...just sayin'

[EliteForce1uk]

@chinoman1129 youtube volume on max.. laptopo volume max .. this is a quiet video .. earphone job

[AllxSizexPro]

@chinoman1129 its also common sense to speak up dumbass

[chinoman1129]

@AllxSizexPro Apparently, dumbasses like you never read the description on why I'm talking like that. Like I said, it's common sense that if you can't hear, turn up the volume and/or wear headphones.

[AllxSizexPro]

@chinoman1129 i read the description, i just think maybe your impatient ass should do it when you werent tired. so we could hear you properly without getting headphones, or cranking our volume up. nextime just do it when your awake and going to speak up. if nott then fuck off

[chinoman1129]

@AllxSizexPro I'm sorry, but do YOU have YT authority? No. Exactly. Fuck off and quit telling me how to make videos. Everyone has a different style when making their channel and if you don't like it, then why waste your time bothering others on how to run theirs when you yourself have barely started a channel.

[GamingFate]

Dude Thanks! I didn't know about the input. I was on AV2 but switched to Composite 2. You sir have earned yourself a like and a sub! :D

[MrWicked1000]

r u playin in the kitchen

[whoscrazo69]

wat if you dont have hd wires

[chinoman1129]

@whoscrazo69 Then buy some! lol

Otherwise, you're stuck with composite/SD (Red, White, and Yellow)

[Prototype758]

[keelanseanwright]

[chinoman1129]

@keelanseanwright well SOOOOOOOOOORY keelan. i DID clearly state that this setup might not follow most TVs in the first 30 seconds of the video.

dumbass

[eloteman123]

i love that you gave special thanks to me :)

[jghs313]

i put all the cords in the right palce,i switched the cord to hdtv, i switched the tv to componet bt its still not showing

[NINOBROWN914]

@jghs313 maybe if you bought a t.v that wasnt stolen it would work cheers :D

[guarichumoli]

why are you whispering?

[HondalongoFilms]

This really helped me out man, Thank you!

[Pent5HT]

Its very simple. Simply Plug in the HDMI Cable into your xbox.....Plug it into your TV. TA DA Your done.....and then go into display and set the display settings. 1080i or 720p or whatever u want i prefer optimal rez setting because u get the best FPS. 1080i can lag a bit cuz ur xbox has to render so much more stuff

[IImSultan]

no problem man fixed it :)

[IImSultan]

thanks man, but my audio isn't working? my xbox is hooked to hdtv used the (green red blue) wires, nothing! help i can't play without audi :S

[HONDASBEST]

2008. Halo Gears :D Golden Age in 360 + Live Gaming.

[RealMinecraftTV]

hey if I have an HDMI cable (the plain black cord) how can I use my turtle beach headset with them if I don't have the red yellow and white cables?

[gobuckeyes13]

When you put the cables in, where does each cable go (Like the "In" line or the "Output"????

[IXxxChaotiCxxXI]

[brandonw12ify]

dude 4 1 thing u have it on smallscreen it neeeds 2 be widesreen

[lilrealjoker11]

So do u need Hdmi please answer .

[vantageIIx]

@lilrealjoker11 You don't need it, but if your Xbox and TV support it you will get the best possible picture quality with it, just don't go looking for an HDMI cable at Best Buy, go to monoprice (dot) com

[lilrealjoker11]

@vantageIIx Ok in Balck friday there was one for $10.00 dollars i shouldive got it .

[xPitu13x]

@vantageIIx yo dude can you put both the hd cable the xbox brings and the Hdmi??

[vantageIIx]

@xPitu13x I doubt that, but I'm not sure. Why would you even need to do that?

[xPitu13x]

@xPitu13x for sound u know the cable the xbox bring cable for video in..ect..or does the Hdmi give u the sound and the image already?

[kickwithfist]

im confused. im thinking of getting an 32" lcd 720p hdtv. so all i need besides the xbox is an hdmi cable or do i need anything else to get it to max graphic settings?

[DevinX5000]

The picture comes up in component but the audio is on video 1 on my tv wow smh

[DevinX5000]

I got it to work but there's no audio?!

[VampWhite]

When I hook up my xbox's input cables in component 1 it works fine but then I cant switch to satellite through the input menu. If i try to look at anything (xbox, DVD, satellite, etc.) on anything thats not VIDEO it becomes black and white and full of static. (sorry if that didn't make any sense, im stupid)

[MrSqu1shy]

i cant get audio to run through my tv

[seanpwnsu]

i plug all the wires in correctly but when i go to component 2 it show the picture in like boxes for like 5 seconds then it goes blue what do i do?

[darkpassenger09]

How do i set my xbox to 720p or over without having it change to 5o hz at the same time?

[NHL11360]

My xbox-360 didnt come with a HDMI Cord.

It only came with a WHITE + RED cord...

When i turn it on it goes perfectly fine but NO SOUND! :(

So do i need to buy a HDMI cord for sound?

[carlitocoolio]

@NHL11360 u should have a red yellow and white cable for sound and video

[NHL11360]

@carlitocoolio

My xbox-360 only came with a red + white and the video thing.

[carlitocoolio]

@NHL11360 oh then yes get a HDMI cable

[AbsolutProdigy]

why is ur power brick on carpet thats not good

[K3vinisHere]

how do u connect xbox 360 to a regualr tv?

[123retroman]

Thanks for the help man everything is working fine but im not getting sound i put the the red and white cables in the sound input but i cant hear anything and i try putting it in my other input for sound and i still cant hear anything.

Please Help

[BigBlogTV]

[Turnnastic]

[TalesOfPiratesoo7]

I connect to my 32" hd ready Tv also like u but what for the lilte hdtv slot on side of cable wich go in xbox...i got my xbox just few days am noob but wanna setup graphic best as posible.....tnx :))

[wonderwall135]

i need help. my tv is 720p at least, i'm not sure if its 1080i. i am using the cables that came with the xbox and set the switch to hd..but the quality is only 480p. is that normal? or am i supposed to get hdmi for hd quality? thanks

[JDFrates]

@wonderwall135 thats what happened to me!! it sucks!! I will see if i can get an answer,do u know why yet?

[JDFrates]

go to system settings,display,hdtv,than select 1080p or what u want! I just found out

[wonderwall135]

@JDFrates thanks man, i actually figured it out a little while after i posted the comment, glad you figured it out too. now i can play in 1080i but not 1080p. i'm not sure if my tv is incapable of 1080p or if it doesn't work through the component cables..do you think getting hdmi would let me play in 1080p?

[JDFrates]

@wonderwall135 Well,it says my TV is capable of 720p,but I chose 1080p and it worked,so I think your TV should too,and I also have an HDMI,It is also capable of 1080p,I got components for using my turtle beach in HD,so try out 1080p components,if it says anything go to i

[feladirr]

I really need help, I have a Samsung T260HD and I have my xbox connected to it via component, but there is no slot for the yellow plug and now games like MW2 look pretty bad, as if it had no antialiasing, like curvy stuff look bad and edges too. Any help?

[spainking1]

u peoplo ARE FUCKING RETARD if u cant hook this up it made easy ps use hdmi cable

[docwolfe77]

Component connections are NOT HDTV.

HDTV is an HDMI cable to the TV or an HDMI cable (with optics) to your receiver.

[xlxshanexlx]

@docwolfe77 There is a component connector that is standard definition and it also has high definition.. it came with my xbox 360 pro i got a few years back

[iMoDz114]

i did this and it workeed fine but now how do i hook up my turtle beach x11's?

[chavvspeeg13]

how much is this in canada, or america?

[leafsrule08]

idk much about this but would it help.

I plugged in all plugs except yellow my xbox switch is on tv? (all plugs means red blue green , red and white.)

[djdil1]

my screen keep comeing up green plz help

[leafsrule08]

@djdil1 if ur tv doesnt have hdmi outlet and u hook everything up dont switch on the hdmi switch on ur xbox.....you gave no info so i took a guess hope it helps.

[roberto362]

@chinoman1129

so you put all the cables "red, blue, green," and red yellow and white?

please help

[chinoman1129]

@roberto362 all of them except yellow

[xMW2SNIP3Zx]

@chinoman1129

You can put yellow in, it doesn't matter.

[ThaKidCodie]

@chinoman1129

THIS HELPED ME OUT RIGHT HERE THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FXMachinima]

@roberto362 plug the red en the white cable also in so red + blue + green + red + white :D

[XEH16233290]

Omfg you helped me like 100 % :) Now I'm looking at 1080p instead of 480p :))) Thank you :D

[swizzybeat8212]

Why dont i get any sound?

[pajlos149]

@swizzybeat8212 because you forgot to plug in the red and white av cables in ur hd tv so u need to plug in your hd cable in ur tv with the white and red regular cable aswell so u get sound i had that problem too i was like wtf. have fun!

[Jzrailen]

Hey dude I have the same cables the white, red and yellow but I dont have another yellow port in my TV but there is one that is already plugged with something I have no idea what it is cant I add a plugin or something like that?

[Birdonrose]

Your tone of voice annoys me but helpful vid thanx:)

[chinoman1129]

@Winlogoff no. only component cables

[mrbulletproof100]

when i hook it up to a samsung 50" HD i didnt know where to put the red green and blue plugs, and i just plugged in the red white and yellow. i kept getting some sort of colorful streaks or green across the screen. if i hook it up like u did will it make it sort it out?

[chinoman1129]

@mrbulletproof100 you're SUPPOSED to use the red, green, and blue plugs. the red and white yellow plugs are the ones used for standard definition TVs (the old ones). however, you have to use the red and white ones for audio when using the red, green and blue plugs.

[Ahkrar]

I feel sorry for the TV. She's getting cables up her...port area... I wouldn't want people sneaking their hands behind me... lol.

[CrazyAngelDude]

If you want to experience true 1080p on Xbox360 make sure you have a goddamn Full HD Tv. Everyone is like "Oh gawd sound doesnt work when I put it on 1080p" and you probably have like 480 or 720p monitors. Of course it doesnt work.

[sexyskater00]

man i have it in 1080p and no sound >:(

[ipodtouch411info]

ok so when u were refering to lag did u mean like hdtv lag. like a milisecond lag that when u press a button it takes less then a second to respond. if so i have that same type of problem and going to get a vga cable today to see if it fixes my problem

[chinoman1129]

@ipodtouch411info thats exactly what i meant. i switched to vga, no problem at all

[skate152411]
