I'm a little confused here. I have a DOlby Digital 5.1 home theater, and I want to hookup the Xbox, but apparently I need to buy the proper proprietary (grrrr) cables.
My problem is this....my main TV only has composite AV (not component...just the three multi-colored composite) connections. This was never a problem with PS2 since it had a standard optical output on the back, and I merely slapped a cable on that for my Dolby signal. Then, I just muted the sound on my TV and enjoyed the DD 5.1 goodness.
So what cable can I use with Xbox that will let me use the composite connections for my video and standard audio AND let me get a Dolby Digital connection as well?
