How do you connect an Xbox one and an Xbox 360 to the same TV? If I want to play 360 then...

Hey sorenfrandsen -

Here's a handy dandy guide on how to connect your original Xbox 360 or Xbox 360S to an HDTV. If you have an Xbox 360 E, you will want to use

this guide.

Hope that helps!

"I like the fact that you can watch your TV on xbox one and play games at the same time.."

Ah, that's probably what the other poster was alluding too. I guess that makes sense if that's something a person wants to do. I sometimes listen to a sitcom while playing 360, which I do by putting my surround sound on tv while the tv itself is actually
tuned to the 360. That works since the surround and the tv are both connected independently to the dvr/tuner.

However myself, and this is just my own preference, I don't think I'd want to try and watch tv and a video game at the same time. I'd be to distracted looking back and forth.

You might want to stick with the Xbox 360 Component HD AV Cable or Xbox 360 Composite AV Cable if that`s working for you at the moment. I`m not sure, It might be the Xbox 360 HDMI Cable that has been damaged, There`s no way of really knowing until you replace
it with another Xbox 360 HDMI Cable to check if the original one you have has been faulty,

Your 360 account will also stay the same. In fact you from what I hear you can be signed in on the 360 and ONE at the same time. You can also daisy chain the 360 to play through the ONE by using a HDMI cable to the TV input from the 360 to the ONE. This
way you do not need another input for your TV to hook both systems up. Just say xbox go to TV and it will pick up the signal from the 360.

Most TVs have more than one HDMI port. Otherwise you can get a switch
