Care to elaborate please

i have 26 inch pc monitor without hdmi , but takes a normal green audio plug for audio.

so i had to get hdmi cable.
had to get rca to green audio plug converter , had to get from zakspeed.
then hdmi to to dvi converter.

then i had to break open the black rca connector , because it covers the hdmi cable at the back of the xbox.

that's the part I'm interested in because I'm the exact same predicament. How did you break it?

basically break it open , it does bend the metal a bit on the connector or i did bend mine , still works though .

i basically forced a screwdriver in it then it came open .

Thanks a bunch, was just a bit worried i break something in the process.

Now i can have a female RCA to 3,5mm male plug into my pc to have my xbox sound through my logitech X530

Not 5.1 i would be getting through but you just saved me 800 bucks from getting the propper digital to analog converter for the optical.

Thanks again!
