Hi all,

Here's one for you :)

My Xbox 360 premium has developed an HDMI problem (NO audio or video).

I have tried the steps to downgrade the resolution without success.

But, I have noticed something strange.

If I am watching cable TV through HDMI 1, then connect my 360 (WITHOUT power) to HDMI 2, the HDMI 1 connection (Cable TV) goes blank.

I am thinking this is a hardware issue with the HDMI port, even with NO power, just plugging in the HDMI lead into HDMI 2 causes HDMI 1 to go blank.

Anyone ever come across this before?

Other than send it to Microsoft, I am willing to have a go myself, anyone got any ideas or suggestions please?

Many thanks,

Pete

Sounds like a possible bad HDMI cable. Have you tried swapping the Xbox HDMI cable?
Hi mate.
Thanks for your reply.
I have tried 4 different hdmi cables & all in all 3 inputs of tv too.


You should also try hooking it up to a different TV.
Hi mate.
I have tried all TV's in my house which are Panasonic, Samsung & LG.


Not sure if this is a hdmi out problem or handshake problem.
But why would it blank the other hdmi channel out even without power?
Strange.

Thanks for your replies peeps.

Oh, and Happy new year to you all.

Regards,

Pete
