XBox Advanced A/V cables
I have a fairly nice surround sound speaker setup in my room and I'd like to be able to hook up my XBox to it.
I think I need the Advanced AV cables for the XBox, but I'm not entirely sure. If I do, is there anything else I'd need? My options for plugging in to my surround sound controller are Digital Coax or Digital Optical.
Quote:
* Source Inputs
o Digital optical for DVD or CD players, PlayStation®2, Xbox®**
o Digital coaxial for DVD or CD players or PC sound cards (requires coaxial cable, sold separately)
o 6 channel direct (3 stereo-mini connectors) for 2, 4, or 6 channel PC sound cards OR
o 6 channel direct (3 stereo-mini connectors) for 3 stereo analog mini audio sources, like CD and DVD players, Playstation 2, Xbox, or 2 channel PC sound cards (some devices may require stereo mini to dual RCA adapter, sold separately)
o Analog stereo-mini (on side panel of control center) for portable CD, MP3,or MiniDisc® players
**Requires Xbox® Advanced AV Pack or Xbox® High Definition AV Pack, sold separately, or PC sound cards (requires optical cable, sold separately)

That's from the speaker manual. I'm assuming I need to buy the Advanced AV Pack with an optical cable. If anyone's set this up, can you help me out?
I don't have a TV that supports the s-video input, will I still be able to use the regular TV inputs with my XBox while using the optical digital input?
