Connecting xbox one to projector and speaker system

GingerSNAPPED44 · Jan 18, 2016

We just got the Xbox One but are running into trouble hooking it up to our projector and speaker system. When we had the Xbox 360 we simply connected the yellow A/V video plug to our Epson EX7220 projector, and then attached the white and red A/V audio plugs
to our blue ray/speaker setup. The Xbox One just has the HDMI output cable so there is no easy way to split the audio off so that it doesn't go into the projector (which would be fine but the projector's speakers are shot). How can I get the audio to play
through our blue-ray player while the video still plays through the projector?

HDMI splitter on XB1

So I got a projector for my man cave, games look great, movies look great. But the projector (epson brand) does not have hdmi out, just a basic built in speaker (not very good). If I buy and HDMI splitter to connect one to a sound system and one to the projector would that be fine? Idk if anyone else is playing on a projector or has their xbox split and knows anything. I'm just worried about maybe there being a lag, or lowering the quality of either.

Xbox one audio out help

Hi guys,

I have got my xbox one connected to a projector via hdmi cable, the projector has a really crappy speaker in it and I was hoping to find a way to connect my turtle beach X12's to the xbox.

I'm a complete novice when it comes to audio stuff so is there a way that I can plug my 3.5mm plug on my x12's into the spdif on the xbox as that is the only way I can see to get sound out of the xbox apart from the hdmi cable?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Does your home theater/bluray have a optical audio in jack? If so, you can get audio out this way. If it does not, I recommend an hdmi audio extractor device such as this:

The Xbox One is hooked up to a projector. I tried running the red and white audio wires from the projector and then directly to the speakers. I do not have it hooked up to a TV. I am using a projector with a screen on the wall. Still no sound from the
home theater speakers, there is sound coming out of the projector.

Hi Tony Marinara,

Have tried connecting it as shown on the Connect your Xbox One console to a sound system support page?

The Xbox One X is connected to the Epson projector via HDMI and to the receiver via a digital audio (TOSLink) cable.

Hey bSpyderMann,

There are some steps
here that show how to connect the console via an Optical Audio cable. Basically you either way to connect your Xbox to an A/V Receiver and Speakers via Optical Audio or your projector might also have a 3mm jack where you can connect speakers.

[quote user="laohuxia1982"]i just wanna ask will Xbox one support Bose C5 in the future or i have to get new speaker for it ???[/quote]You want to know if the Xbox One will support the

Bose Companion 5 computer "speaker" system?

No, it won't since it's not just a speaker system. The Companion 5 is a combination USB sound card and speaker system. It's the USB sound card part that Xbox One won't support.

Your only option, and this assumes you leave the PC on, is to use a digital to analog audio adapter and appropriate cabling to connect the Xbox One's optical out to the control puck's audio in. You'll have access to stereo sound from the Xbox One.
