Help me set up my HDTV please :(
Ok, Got my HDTV just went to set it up, plugged everything in and stuff.
Very dodgy picture...
I've read both the 360 manual and the TV manual but its a load of codswallop
Here's how it's plugged in.




and here's the cables which I have but don't know what to do with them.


Zero becomes One, One becomes One Hundred.

That may help.


I honestly don't know much about setting up TVs, but if the picture is a bit dodgy, then it may be down to tuning rather than the setup. But I honestly dont know, any wires loose? Tried unplugging each one and watching the effect to see where the problem is?

Theres a switch on the TV plug near it's input on the 360, have you got that set to HD? Also, make sure all the component cables are in the right sockets, they're colour coded.

In addition to the switch doesn't the 360 also have a menu for modifying HD settings? Not 100% sure...

Also, is it hooked up to cable? If so, how's that picture?

The 360 has HD settings, which do little to change it, besides witching resolution. The picture shouldn't be dodgy, even at the lowest setting. It won't be GREAT, either, but still.

I've got a cheap HD TV, but the picture is great when you have an HD signal. Not so great on regular cable.

I meant to include with that that my signal was great out of the box, simply flipping the switch and with "plug and play" sort of things...

It's HD Ready does that make a difference?
the holes are red white and yellow, I've put the normal ones on and it looks much better, but still not HD. Amazing quality though.
Yes i did turn the switch to HD and it make it dodgy, and yes when I tried to change the settings in the display it said I couldn't because The switch was set to TV. I can't see shit when it's to HD so...
It's working now anyway and It's 100% better than my old tele so thats the main thing .

If you're hooking up component video, you're not hooking up into the right ones.

Red White and Yellow are stereo audio (R&W) and video (yellow). You want 5 spots, Red Blue and Green for video, and red and white for audio.

LOL.

I just looked up. He's hooked 'em up through regular video, alright. You can even see the S-Video jack.

I see a DVI jack, but no HDMI or component video.

You're gonna need one of these.

God that TV sucks. Does anything really use DVI as the MAIN input? No HDMI, VGA, Component.

You could also get the MS VGA Adapter and put a VGA->DVI adapter on that, that could work as well. But I'd recommend getting the component converter so you can use other things besides your 360 in HD.

Yeah, but that doesn't do HD.

Hell, I bought the cheapest 42" on the market at the time and I get 2 SCART, 1 Component, 1 S-Video, 1 DVI-I, 1 VGA, 2 HDMI and 1 RF.

Can you post pictures of your current setup?

Also, not to be an ass, but tech support for HDTVs often includes setup. Can you call them, and see if they know a little bit more?

What do you mean by current setup?
The back of my tele or the settings on the tele?

DVI is only a video connection, no audio goes through there. Looking at the pics above, fuck knows where your audio cables are supposed to go....

Actually, I think I just found it. See that 3.5mm audio jack below the s-video? (The one that looks like a headphone socket...), that will probably be the DVI-I channels audio. You'll need this:

Obviously DOUBLE CHECK FIRST as I can't even see what it says or what the logo above that port is.
