Short review: This dongle may not work the same way as the official, so buyer beware.
Full review: On some tv’s (including my 2010 LG plasma) changing the source when you are connected to the set via HDMI and also have have this dongle plugged in for optical audio will cause the 360 to reset. This is a known issue for hacked component cables ([...] ) which I had hoped to avoid by purchasing a dongle. Unfortunately the same issue occurs with some aftermarket dongles as well, including the one that I purchased on Amazon through HDE.
Fortunately, I’ve been able to find a used genuine dongle that solves the problem, allowing me to pause a game and turn off the set to avoid burn-in, while not rewarding MS for their shady design manipulations.
i bought this wire to try and get some amount of sound quality out of newly purchased xbox 360 Skullcany low rider headphones- the most ridiculous set-up ive ever known, anyway- the wire is fine. got it for a decent price and arrived on time. recommended. what i DONT recommend you do is buy the headphones i mentioned.

It works very well with my Xbox 360 (CODMW2 limited edition), which came with crappy component cables. Now it is running on 1080p graphics
