I tried the search but I don't know exactly what I'm talking about so I can't seem to find anything.

My TV has two plug ins in the back. A white one and a red one and I'm trying to figure out if there's something I can buy to hook my 360 cords into it or if I need to buy a new TV with the right plug ins?

Red is for video.
White should be for audio. (One speaker on your TV)

Or could be the other way around.

Or the worst case scenario your red and white is only for left and right speakers and you don't have a video jack.

But then again you might have missed the yellow one which most TVs have.

Hopefully I haven't confused you.

White and red sockets are likely audio only.

Are you sure there's not a yellow one there too? It would carry the video. Then you have S-Video inputs.

Oh dear lord, I'm retarded sometimes. Ok, it's a yellow plug in and a white plug in, I just double checked. So I think it should work.

I tried plugging the power cord into my socket/power converter thing and it made a pop sound so I think I need to get a Korean plug 360 cord.

Other than that I should be good to go hopefully. Thanks guys Smile

Yellow plug = video
Red/White (or by themselves) = audio

Yes, you're a retard - and colorblind at times, too Smile

The white is audio, but will be mono-audio. You can use either the white or red
input from your player device, but you;ll have the best audio if you can make the output mono instead of stereo. Most computers will, but not xbox, etc.

Do you think Hi-mart will just sell the wall plug in part for the 360? I feel shy going in there without scoping it out first.
