    Unable to have sound with xbox360 S + Dell screen


    Hi everyone,

    My English is poor but i will do my best... I'm Sorry !

    I want to play xbox on my Dell PC screen but i only get image but no Sound !

    My xbox is connected to the Dell screen with a HDMI cable.

    So i bought a little "VGA to HDMI adapter" because my screen has no DHMI entrance.

    Also my Dell screen has no incorporated sound speakers. I bought Soundspeakers that has 2 type of connections ( jack male 3.5 mm & USB connectors) + i bought a USB sound card (10euro)

    and connect it to one of my USB slots (on the side of my screen) and i directly linked the soundspeakers into the USB soundcard adapter through the jack 3.5 mm & the USB connector.

    And i still don't have audio !!! but why ?? can anyone please help me ?

    P.S : I tried also to check in the sound options through the control panel if i can do something but it's still not OK !

    :)

    Hey NisTuns!

    It sounds like the adapter you are trying to use for your HDMI input may not be the correct one to allow sound to be passed from your console to your monitor. If you take a look at

    this guide     here, you can scroll down and see the different ways you can connect your console to allow for digital audio. The best option is going to be the Xbox 360 S-Video/AV cable adapter as that will be the easiest set up. If that's not what you have,
    take a look through the guide and see if any of the things listed there help you out.

    Good luck! Unable to have sound with xbox360 S + Dell screen :)

    Using a laptop screen as a monitor

    [quote user="Hesse2509"]Is it technically possible to plug my 360 s into my laptop so as to use my laptop's monitor to display the 360's output?[/quote]You'd have to have a laptop designed for that. Alienware/Dell added that as a feature on some of their
    models.



    The vast majority of laptops do not have an HDMI input or a video input that goes directly to the screen.

    Xbox one Smartglass on Windows 8.1

    I'm having the same issue as you Yayo69, i'm on an XPS 15 Dell laptop w/ Win 8.1, the companion app doesn't seem to want to connect. Tried it on my Surface as well, not working there, same 'stuck on a loading screen' issue. Want this to work sounds so
    cool!

    Connecting Xbox 360 E to monitor using a HDMI to VGA adapter?

    I use the exact same model of this with my Xbox One to my Dell projector and have no issues. It should work fine on your 360 as well. As long as you have the sound covered (which it sounds like you do), you will be good to go with that adapter.

    -

    The only issue you may have is with playing DVDs or certain streaming movies that have HDCP - it won't let you play those due to the copyright protection. I am unable to play BluRay disc or watch the Halo series on my Xbox One because of this, and I am sure
    it also applies to the 360. But it will not affect games.
