    so what do you want to do? you want to connect headphones to your LCD tv but it doesnt have a Headphone jack? u can connect the HDMI to your surround sound system eg. the amp, that will have a headphone jack.

    do you mean that theres no sound from the tv, because ur computer is connected to the tv through hdmi and theres no audio port?
    if so only way is to hook up some speakers to your computer
     
  5. no surround sound just an xbox

    well for the ps3 thread.. ppl connected using other speakers... as in like a 2.1 surround system that you buy separately.. which would cost ang more money :p the other thread that person had a Acer Monitor which is made for computer.. which had no speakers :p

    i assume currently u have
    tv linked to xbox via hdmi
    and tv has no headphone output so u can't use headphones

    do u have like an amp/mixer that had headphone output?
    (the amp/mixer needs to have hdmi input/output btw)

    assuming u have that

    then u connect xbox to amp, and another cable from amp to tv
    then ur tv u can mute, and control sound via the amp

    pricewise for amp, i got no idea as i haven't been looking...
    but given current economy, should be cheap =)

    i don't think economy has effects on electronics pricing, thats why all black friday deals are shit.

    isnt there a component out on the xbox?
    nt too sure, cause if there is surely there is a setting to use [FONT=arial,sans-serif][SIZE=-1]Composite[/SIZE][/FONT] for sound and then gt one of those [FONT=arial,sans-serif][SIZE=-1]Composite[/SIZE][/FONT](male) to 3.5mm(female) jack things

    get an amp and an extra HDMI cord

    plug your xbox into the amp via HDMI

    then plug your amp into the TV with another HDMI cord

    and then plug your speakers and your headphones into the amp


    why buy a whole new TV lol
