Hi, thought I'd bate you all with an intriguing title, guess it worked eh? ;)

I'll try to keep it short for those duped basically i can only play my 360 at night when the missus and the baby have gone to bed, its the only time the TV is free.

Until a few nights ago the baby was sleeping in with us, but now he's in his own room. Until then the baby monitor was in the living room for when he went down early, and the camera in our bedroom.

Now the camera is in his own room and the monitor is either in the living room while shes awake, or then in the bedroom when she goes to sleep, but the 360 is never on when the monitor is on as the missus is in the room.

So i was happy playing last night (1st time since the move) until she came storming in saying the monitor was breaking up which wasn't the main problem but there was crackling coming through the sound which means she couldn't get to sleep.

We tried everything, eventually i turned off the 360 and it went away. Turned it back on and it came back!

Surely my 360 isn't effecting the monitor like this in another room! The only time i get to play is during the night, and if it breaks up when its on i wont get any game time EVER!

The monitor in question is:

Gaming is more important than your childs saftey, get rid of the baby or the monitor.

:D

If i did that i'd be missing two vital things that would mean i'd never have another baby again.

Worth it imo. ;)

Have the baby monitor with you whilst you're gaming and then bring it into the bedroom when you go to bed?

She likes going to sleep watching him. Its bad enough i moved the cot into his bedroom when she was out shopping nevermind that! She already thinks i've 'stolen' her baby off her, crazy tbh.

Thats some crazy big interference if the monitor's a few rooms away. Are you playing with a wifi connection by chance?



We have a winrar!

Not hooked up to internet mate, it gets worse when the game loads.
 
Thanks for all the replies.

Yes she is VERY overprotective but a fine mother at the same time.

Its our 1st and she will grow out of it, its just he's getting more difficult to put down at the moment (tossing and turning, burying his head into the corners of the cot) and he's also ill, nothing serious he just has a virus which he cannot shake which is making him chesty and bunged up which worries her.

I dont think its the controller, it seems to be the console, i dont have a wired controller to test it.
