Okay here’s the deal. I know the Xbox cable comes with that whole tv/HDTV switch. That isn’t the problem. The problem is that my cable box had all the HDTV connections taken up on my tv. How would I set up the Xbox 360 to be connected to the HDTV connections? As it stands right now I would have to take out my cable box. I don’t want to do that every time I play. That sucks. Why they made the tv like this? I don’t know! It doesn’t make any sense to me. I could set up the XBox 360 to a normal tv set up and it still looks great, but I want HDTV! I want to take full advantage of the system and my tv. I heard there is something, some type of gadget that allows you to connect more than one thing in these type of situations. Does anyone know about what to do in this case? Has anyone run into the same problem? Does anyone know the name of the gadget? Please help.

I recently bought a LDC tv. Do I need to buy a Digital TV converter box?
I’m really confused between LCD and HDTV and HDMI. What is all of that about?

The hdtv has 3 hdmi inputs and the 5.1 reciever has 1 hdmi input. What can I do? Is there a fiber optic “converter” for recievers that don’t have it?

I just bout a new Sony Home Theater system, with 5 HDMI ports. And have a PS3, HDTV and regular DirecTV HD reciever. Can they all be hooked up via HDMI through the Surround sound system? And would Monster cables be the best for quality?
