360 Elite not so elite after all

360 'Elite' doesn't support HDMI 1.3, DD+, TrueHD or 5.1 PCM

Xbox 360 Elite supports HDMI 1.2 profile. For audio, you can select DD, DTS (at 1.5 Mbps), and WMA-Pro (Microsoft high fidelity multi-channel codec supported in some AVRs such as Pioneer). Since it is not based on 1.3, it will not support output of DD+ or TrueHD (even if it did, mixing would have been turned off).

PCM output is available but only for 2-channels (not 5.1).

I'm not bashing 360, I've got one. Just this pointless piece of trash called the 360 elite. There is no reason for it to exist.

I dont even kno wat that means and it really doesnt matter...I dont even have HD tv! it just isnt needed so get off it 

Here we go again with the "true HD" and "true audio" bla bla bla. You will never notice the difference. limpbizkit818

You have my respect...because you're an In Flames fan.  Keep the horns up. 

Unless your a hardcore AV person, you won't notice any difference. But I agree that the Elite sucks ass. It should've had Wi-Fi in it and stayed $480. Then it would be much better.Kizzle28

agree

YES!!!  So did I!  It was at Worcester, Mass, and the show fricking thrashed.  DevilDriver's awesome in concert (new album in a couple months).  Also, In Flames started with "Pinball Map" and the whole place went bonkers.  Ok, I gotta start listening to them now...

I realize Wikipedia isn't exactly an infallable source, but it is 10x more accurate than anything on these forums.  So here you go:

HDMI 1.0
Single-cable digital audio/video connection with a maximum bitrate of 4.9Gbps. Supports up to 165Mpixels/sec video (1080p60Hz or UXGA) and 8-channel/192kHz/24-bit audio.

HDMI 1.2
Added support for One Bit Audio, used on Super Audio CDs, up to 8 channels.
Availability of HDMI Type A connector for PC sources.
Ability for PC sources to use native RGB color-space while retaining the option to support the YCbCr CE color space.
Requirement for HDMI 1.2 and later displays to support low-voltage sources.

HDMI 1.3
Increases single-link bandwidth to 340 MHz (10.2 Gbps)
Optionally supports 30-bit, 36-bit, and 48-bit xvYCC with Deep Color or over one billion colors, up from 24-bit sRGB or YCbCr in previous versions.
Incorporates automatic audio syncing (lip sync) capability.
Supports output of Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio streams for external decoding by AV receivers.[9] TrueHD and DTS-HD are lossless audio codec formats used on HD DVDs and Blu-ray Discs. If the disc player can decode these streams into uncompressed audio, then HDMI 1.3 is not necessary, as all versions of HDMI can transport uncompressed audio.
Availability of a new mini connector for devices such as camcorders.[10]
The Sony PlayStation 3 is the first product available on consumer market with HDMI 1.3.[11]
Epson has released the EMP-TW1000 as the first display supporting 30-bit deep color.[12]

The truth is Lems MS is screwing u guys over 80 bucks for a bigger harddrive and black accessories.wingman3030

How is screwing them over? The money goes toward a bigger harddrive and the black looks pretty sweet if you ask me.

The 360 was released what November of 05? Too much time has passed for a product to go up in price 80 dollars just for a bigger harddrive.

Thank you for making a good point, it was needed....o well not like the stubborn people on GS will listen. x_x

When you bought premium, you kinda get ripped off, when you bought the 20GB HDD you got ripped off at the very best but if you dont have 360 yet then Elite is the best deal for u

Microsoft did not need to release another version of the Xbox 360. They should of just released the 120gb HDD separately and figured out a way  to design an adapter for HDMI from the current composite or USB port. With enough time I am sure they could of done it.

If u read the topic u would know the HDMI output that the elite comes with is pointless making all the extra cables pointless.

please come back when you know what you are talking about

who cares about proprietary specifications that doesnt mean anything except the company paid them to list their label

U could say that IF i didnt know there werent any games worth playing as of right now or that it came with a Blu-Ray player I didnt want.

But since none of that is true, i guess sony didnt screw me.
