Microsoft finally patches Xbox 360’s HDMI issues
A bug that prevented audio signals from being delivered from the Xbox 360 to users receivers/TVs via HDMI has been a huge burden to many people since the issue cropped up with the installation of the NXE update in mid-November, but Microsoft apparently didn’t deem it necessary to address the issue let alone release a patch. Well here we are over two months later and we see that Microsoft has finally decided to come around and push out an official patch to solve the problem. We’re not sure what kept Redmond from remedying the issue sooner but when 360 owners got fed up enough to come to us for help, Microsoft apparantly saw the light. Needy little things those 360 users, aren’t they? The nerve – wanting audio for their video games… It all goes to show that when in doubt, Help Me Howard BGR is on your side.
Are you fucking serious? BGR was quite possibly the LAST site to report on the issue. It’s just a coincidence that the patch was released soon after your post. Microsoft confirmed the issue back in December & said back then that they were working on a fix.
i agree, but that won’t stop these guys from taking credit… pathetic
It is called a videogame, not an audio/videogame so maybe asking for audio is a bit much. be happy with what you have.
XBOX SUX so who cares????
i honestly dont care i didnt have any issues with my 360 and if i did i would have played my ps3 till the issue was fixed
you guys (commenters) are quite gay. just read the damned post and shut the fuck up.
I’m with Martin, You are all a bunch of flaming retards with nothing better to do then shit on other people.
X box is still the best :$!
Oh, get the fuck outta here, like gamers came to BGR of all places for help ? and that M$ resorted to issue a patch because people were “supposedly” coming to you guys. Riiiiiiightt hahaha.
@ Martin G … THANK YOU !
It never fails to amaze me how beligerent people can be .
Pathetic .
did this affect the optical out that you use when you are using a receiver or a home theater system?
i can feel the love on this comment wall
just let it go….
Downloaded the update last night. I had not been affected by the no-audio-bug… until I installed the update. Now, no audio. Awesome. Thanks a lot for the “fix”, Microsoft.
best in life time
