Quick question i hope somebody can answer.

SO i have an hdmi monitor right now that i play on.
But i also have tritton headsets that i have to use for audio. I have the component in the back of my xbox so i can plug my optical cable into the back of it for sound i also have the hdmi in the back and it's a tight fit but it works fine. If i get this pvr will i just have to plug the hdmi out to my monitor and be fine or will i have to scrap this whole set up.

Also if i were to get an xbox slim would i be able to have the component and hdmi in my xbox for sound and video?

you need a component cable and seen as tho the tritons have red and white piggy back you will be able to plug them in just fin to the pvr and they should work fine and the component cable also plays in hd hope this helped

You need to use the Component HD Cables That you can buy at gamestop.. You cannot use an HD PVR with HDMI... The only thing you can use with HDMI is A ElGato And A Blackmagic..
