How-To: Xbox360 HDMI & RCA audio

Step 3 Plug It In!

Now take that bad boy and plug it in where it's supposed to go.  Then take your HDMI cable and find that, oh would you look at that, there actually is room for the both of these Microsoft!  Now we just have to hope they don't issue a patch to the operating system that makes this mod unable to work.

Nice hack, takes all of 2 minutes. I cut off the offending tab with a hacksaw very easily and just re-assembled the connector taped with packing tape. Easiest $50 I didn't spend ever.

What would happen if you didn't put any electric tape or anything on it?

not trying to be a prick, but why didnt you simply grind off the tab, allowing the plastic casing to keep the internal already insulated?

It was probably a combination of the fact that I didn't know it was just empty space behind the tab and the fact that I didn't want to get melted plastic all over my grinding wheel.
