Hey all, going to be running my 360 through my TFT however I do not have the normal connections on my speakers to connect them up to a scart connection or whatever.

I just have the Suround Sound PC Audio connectors Orange, Black and Green... is there a way to connect thse up to the 360 as well? Otherwise I will have picture but no sound!

Thanks all,
Jcb33.

Are you using the VGA cable to connect the 360 to the TFT? The official VGA cable comes with left and right phono plugs for the audio and also an adapter to convert them to a 3.5mm stereo audio jack.

Also the VGA lead allows optical.

Yeah you will only get stereo out of it unless you happen to have a digital decoder around, your speakers only accept individual channels as the decoding is usually done by the sound card in your computer. Some speakers can upmix a stereo signal to 5.1 (virtual) though but those are normally the ones with the built in decoder.
