How come when i use the green, blue, red cable i get no sound?

video is way better, anyway to get sound?

prolly need new tv lol...sanyo Flat is what i have.

Those are only for video (component-HD capable). You still have to hook up the red and white audio cables to get sound to the TV.

The green, blue, and red are for video only. More specifically, that is component cable.

Question: are you using the actual Microsoft component set, or are you using a third party set? The reason I ask is that Microsofts own component cable should have 6 RCA connectors on it (green/blue/red component connectors, red/white audio connectors, and one yellow for composite), as well as an optical connector and a switch on the connector to the 360 itself (depending on what TV you have you either set it to HDTV mode, or TV mode).




I've seen some 3rd party cables that have only one type of connection, but again, Microsofts own cable supports them all except S-Video, HDMI, and VGA, which they sell seperately.

Component cable is video only.

RGB (red green blue spectrums that make up the world of what we view on tv/hdtv)

The Red/White stereo connectio will be needed to get the audio, just don't plug in the Yellow "composite" video (combines all video RGB into a single video sample which shows a more degraded picture vs the RGB component which fully seperates it all)

Course it doesn't realy work that way, considering that the RGB cables aren't actually red green blue spectrums, each holds a different portion of the screen in some matter... (i gotta go read up on that again it's been.... 3 years? )

To get true 5.1 sound use the TOS Link cable. Fiber optic cable. Those red and white RCA plugs are stereo only.
