I don't know if this is in the right spot, or if I'm even creating a thread here, but oh well. I got some Turtle Beaches the other day (XL1) and brought them home, not knowing they required an adapter or AV components to send the sound from your TV to the headset. So, I went back to the store, got the components, and tried to plug them in. I was unable to, as the AV components have a little lip on the bottom that doesn't allow the HDMI to be plugged in at the same time. I took the HDMI out, inserted the AV components, went to "Video 1" and it worked... but the picture quality was horrible, so I took the AV out of the Xbox and TV, plugged the HDMI into the Xbox and TV, and went to "HDMI 1". It then said "Not supported". I know I have the cord plugged in correctly, and I know it's in the right slot on the TV because there's only one HDMI slot that fits the cord, and that's "HDMI 1". So, I put the AV cables back in, and attempted to put the resolution back to 1080p. I couldn't, however, because when I got to "Display", the "HD TV Settings" option was grayed out, so I couldn't fix the resolution. I did notice, however, that when I plug the HDMI cord into the Xbox/TV, the Xbox still responds to the controller; i.e. I can turn the console off remotely. So, I figure, if the HDMI cord is inserted, then the Xbox will recognize my TV as HD again. If I could somehow navigate my way through the Xbox settings blindly, I could set the optimal resolution back to 1080p and everything would be fixed, because I've determined that it is in fact the Xbox or TV that is messing up, not the cord itself. If it were the cord, then the TV wouldn't be getting the signal that it can't support. So, does anyone think/know this will work? If not, what are some other solutions?
