Hello.

Please help me, it's very urgent!!!!

Hey! If it's for playing, there's no rush!

That being said, you'll need a converter because a simple adapter won't be enough.
I took this one as an example, but I'm sure there are cheaper options out there. I'll let you search since there are prices for all budgets, and since it's your wallet...

This is just a suggestion... Bye

  Thank you, I didn't know that. How does it work? Am I required to buy one to use it?

  Yes, you should trust us. How does it work? It converts the digital signals from your console into analog signals for your old TV. You connect the console via HDMI to the input of the converter and the TV using the composite or the red, white, and yellow RCA cables. And look, I found a cheaper one for you:

  eu.... I don't really know much about it, but there are three holes for the red, white, and yellow ports; I don't know what that's called. Otherwise, I think that's all, but I also have a Livebox decoder, so maybe I can also connect it to that??

  This is a Jack RGB HDMI adapter!

  Easy, one side respecting the colors, on your TV, the other side on your console!
  
  Just as simple as that!

  Attention HDMI=digital and cinch=analog, And I have a big doubt about this cable... how would it convert without the slightest electronic box and power supply? It would be better, as mentioned above, to use a converter

Hello,

First of all, if your TV doesn't have an HDMI port and it's old, it means it doesn't support HD.
No matter how many adapters you try, you might get an image, but it will be very far from what the console can deliver.
It would make more sense to do things in order and start by investing in a TV that is compatible with the console.

  Thank you, but I had the same one for the Xbox 360 without HDMI, and even if it wasn't HD, it was fine for me.

Hello,

there are adapters for all kinds of ports:

Jack ==> HDMI
Scart ==> HDMI etc etc!

I don't quite see your problem!

  No, an adapter is not enough; a converter is necessary.
