You could always add a coax output to the advanced av pack or onto the back of the xbox itself.  Check the tutorials at xbox-scene for a guide on this.

Look here for adding one to your av pack: link soon (page timesout)

Look here for adding one on the back of your xbox: link soon (page timesout)

When running your video and audio signals through this splitter, do you notice any significant decrease in quality of either signal vs. connecting them up directly to your TV/receiver combination?

i have the same selector and i am very pleased.  It doesn't seem to have signal degradation.  Only pain is you have to get up to change the input, no remote unless someone has a guide on how to do it?

My receiver only has one optical IN jack, and that's being used by my Hi-Definition cable box.  How am I going to get 5.1 surround sound?  Is there some kind of an optical jack splitter?  I can't be the only one that has this problem.  I'd appreciate any help.  Thanks in advance!
