Audio Input: Digital Surround Sound
Video Output: HDMI™
Compatibility: NTSC and PAL (all resolutions are supported!)
Latency: LAG FREE!!
This tiny, power-packed module takes in the Component video and audio output from the Original Xbox and outputs an HDMI™ signal with embedded Dolby Digital Surround Sound (if that audio setting is enabled in your Xbox’s settings). Unlike other converters on the market, the ElectronXout is compatible with all versions of the Original Xbox!
This module utilizes a fully custom PCB with a higher quality, next generation IC compared to what is typically used on the widely available analog-to-digital modules that are readily available online. If you are not happy with those modules, then you will absolutely be happy with these.
These modules are not compatible with the Xbox 360. These are only intended for use with the Original Xbox.
This module efficiently supports all of the resolutions that are default to the Original Xbox. This module is able to support all of the following resolutions although they are not all achievable outputs from the original Xbox: 480i/p, 576i/p, 720p25/30/50/60, 1080i50/60, 1080p24/25/30/50/60.
Old Hardware
With this newest version of this module, V3, the Digital Surround Sound audio input has been fixed to work with every revision of the Xbox. V1 and V2 versions will not be shipped out any longer. All orders will be fulfilled with V3 versions.
After the first release of these modules we received some reports that they were not producing sound output when used with Xbox units with Revision 1.0 hardware while connected to some specific TVs and sound bars. We released a V2 version of the module that looked to solve this issue with the addition of a small switch that allows the user to swap between analog and digital surround sound. The new V3 unit completely solves the audio issue and allows for digital surround sound on all Xbox units.
This information is only being kept here for individuals who still own a V2 unit. This switch does not exist on the V3 version.
There is a small, accessible selector switch inside of the product on the side that has the HDMI™ connector. This switch allows the user to switch between using the analog or surround sound audio output from the Xbox.
Notes:
- When the switch position is changed the module must be disconnected and reconnected to your Xbox for the change to take effect.
- Be sure to select the correct audio output in the Xbox settings. Failing to do so will result in no sound output.
Surround Sound Audio
When the selector switch is to the left then only the surround sound audio is being used.
Analog Audio
When the selector switch is to the right then only the analog audio is being used.
