Why won’t my xbox 360 allow for 1080 resolution when connected to 1080i tv via hdmi-to-dvi adapter?
I have a Samsung 61″ DLP that has a dvi connector which has no problem displaying 1080i via component cable or displaying 1080i using my PS3. But I cannot get 1080 resolution using an HDMI cable connected via an hdmi-to-dvi adapter. I have the latest update I believe but the 1920×1080 settings are grayed out and the optimal setting only gives me 1280×720 resolution. xbox support claims it is a tv issue, but I disagree as I can get great resolution on my ps3 and the 1080i setting is available when connected via component cable. The problem is that the resolution via hdmi is far superior and i also have the xbox hd dvd connected which prefers the hdmi cable. Has anyone also had this problem and if so is there a resolution? Based on the november 2007 update, it appears that they resolved the dvi issues. I’m hoping that another update is forthcoming that will resolve this.
unfortunately… i believe the xbox 360 has a maximum resolution of 720p. im not sure, but thats y i think you can only get a resolution of 1280×720

Why Switch to Hdmi for Your New High Definition Tv?
An excellent question. I’m sure many people ask themselves why they should switch to this new jack for their high definition televisions or disc players all the time. To boil it down to one word, think “digital.”
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a next generation jack that sends fully uncompressed audio and video signals from your source equipment (such as a Blu-Ray disc player, a DVD player, or your amplifier) to your high definition television. Instead of jacks like component video (those Red/Green/Blue connectors we are all familiar with) or DVI, HDMI uses just one small jack to handle it all; you don’t have to hook up any additional audio connectors to put together your picture and sound package.
How does purchasing all of this new and baffling equipment affect you? It means that, rather than purchasing a whole bunch of jacks to put it all together, you can use just one single jack to connect your HDMI equipped source (such as Blu-ray disc player, gaming equipment like Xbox 360 and Wii, high definition cable or satellite box, or that brand new A/V surround sound receiver you just purchased) and your high definition television.
I don’t know how much easier it could get. You will get brilliant picture quality at a maximum of 1080p, and you will hear an original distinct surrounding audio sound. Well some people will state, “The component video cable setup I have now appears to be alright and sounds good with my new HDTV.” In many ways this is the truth. But your typical component video cable is simply unable to connect a Blu-ray player to your high definition television and provide the quality and clarity the high definition has to offer. For televisions that are bigger than 50 inches, adapting Blu-ray and using 1080p is similar to washing the windows on your house or car. Okay, so you can look out just as they are normally, but when they have been thoroughly cleaned, it’s as if they don’t exist.
Here’s an illustration of why you should adapt to HDMI. Grab a movie like “I, Robot”, one on a regular DVD and one on the new Blu-ray. Join your new Blu-ray player together with HDMI and also component video in turn. Then watch the movie as a normal DVD. It will have a high quality appearance and a wonderful sound. Now watch the movie again with an HDMI cable and the Blu-ray disk; make sure your player is set to 1080p, just like your new high definition TV, and check that your surround receiver is able to use the latest audio formats like DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio. The change is amazing. While the video is markedly better, almost like in-home 3-D, it’s the master audio soundtrack that makes you really feel like you are at the filming. The fantastic reflection and sound are a real testimony to the reason you desire to have HDMI connections along with your new HDTV gear.
An additional purpose to use HDMI is your new A/V digital surround device. HDMI delivers both Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio tracks. This provides quality your Toslink optical and coaxial digital cables can’t match, and it’s an incredible improvement from the usual surround track provided by DVD. Now, not only does it let things scan around your 5.1 or 7.1 theater, it does it in a much more controlled manner that immerses the viewer in the action on the screen. You can see a huge contrast right from the get-go.
So, it should be fairly obvious that, if it is available to you, HDMI can make connecting your equipment easy. It also can get rid of the tangle of wires that’s lurking behind your equipment, providing you with an unequaled picture and sound experience for your new 1080p television and Blu-ray disc player without the hassle.
About the Author
As a home theater installer, Vic Metten uses only HDMI cables for HDTVs with Blu-ray disk players, because DVI cables and component cables don’t have the range of sound and picture that a single Component cable can give. So, for DVI to HDMI converters or an HDMI adapter, he finds a way to give people the best audio and visual quality he can.
How do you know if your xbox 360 is capable of the hdmi adapter?
I have been reading about the cable hdmi for xbox 360 and some are saying that the hdmi adapter is only available for the later models of xbox360. is this true? how come microsoft doesnt say that with their product description?
They do.
All 360 Elites have a HDMI port on them, and the box will say “HDMI Port” on them.
The newer Premium/Pro boxes will also say “HDMI” on them if they have a HDMI port. If the box doesn’t say it, then the console inside doesn’t have it. Remember, there’s still a lot of older Premium/Pro boxes out there still. The newer ones won’t show up on shelves until the older stock has been sold first.
Don’t rely on web descriptions – most places don’t update those even though the product has changed. You have to look at the actual box the Xbox is in.
Good luck.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
