Maybe this isnt the right place to post this question,maybe it should be moved,not sure,but here it goes.I got this xbox 360 console and it doesn't have an hdmi port,i only have composite and component cables.Now,my HDTV doesn't have the inputs for these cables(not red,or white,or yellow,or blue or none what so ever),so i need a solution on how to connect these?Should i buy composite to vga cable or something?Maybe scart?Which of these would give me the best quality and which is the cheapest solution?I have some sort of,well i guest it's rgb or something,it sticks in scart port,but can't get it to work.Hope you understood me,cause even i'm a little confused when i read this. :)

first off check your tv guild a lot of the older ports on newer tv are covered by plates some of them are on the side or front of the tv.

I don't think so,my country is pretty f*cked up. It's either the one i linked above,or perhaps this one http://www.game-s.rs/index.php?page=shop.product_detail... it has vga output,but it's more expensive than the first solution,so i was thinking about going with that first.Can scart play in like,i don't,720p?
