i was wondering if any HDMI cable will work with a 360 ?
right now i have a 20 LCD monitor that i want to play the 360 and the only free port is a DVI-D port and i found a cable that does HDMI to DVI-D but will it work with a 360 or do i have to get the microsoft HDMI Cable?

my 360 is not an elite but it does have the HDMI output Newegg.com - Microsoft XBOX 360 Platinum with HDMI Output and 20GB Hard Drive


Newegg.com - SYBA 6 ft. DVI-D Male to HDMI Male Cable, Gold Plated Connector, RoHS Model SD-DVIHDMI-MM-6 - Retail
that is the cable that i found.

thnxs for the help and suggestions are welcome

Yeah.

But it can't be hooked up to any video output source. Just the audio (the 360 with HDMI comes with an audio only dongle)
