The Xbox advanced scart cable has a digital optical out, that enables you to connect it to a 5.1 decoder.
As we are about to get such a unit, can someone tell me is there any standard optical connector type?
Is the connector on this cable different from any others, or are all optical connectors teh same?
Cheers.
Ive got a 3rd party scrt cable and it uses a standard toslink cable. Cheap place for them is

They do a lot of good priced cables. Does make me grin when people mention gold plated connectors on optical connectors, thers no electricity to conduct.

As they both provide an RGB output and an optical digital output.
Not a bad cable there on that site, personally im using a Joytech, I got it from Gamestation in a 2 for £30 offer. bought it with DOA3 theres a good selection of choices.. like a Steering Wheel, Light Gun, Games, etc. Really is a good deal.
I have read reviews by some people sating that some cables are better than others, but am not sure if they were trying to justify buying the more exspensive ones. I like the one on AV's site, it has AV breakout box my one doesent. Also for that price comes with the optical cable. Think I might post AVonlines site on the bargains forum, might interest some people.
