I am experiencing some lag between the controller of my 360, and the console. While playing Ghosts, I have a few milliseconds of time difference. When I turn, it isn't instant, or as fast as it usually was last time i played. Would it be faster to use an HDMI wire instead of my HDPVR connection (Xbox to HDPVR, Then out of HD PVR To xbox). Would it be faster to direct connect a HDMI wire?

This is not the console or controller, its the TV.. the TV has something called "input lag"... Usually HDMI makes it feel more instant... IF you want that instant 0 lag... STANDARD TV is your best option... Almost all HDTVs have this lag. I never knew that until I bought my first HD TV

. Okay thanks! Do you think an HDMI might help though? I mean it seems like it JUST started to get laggy today...

There is a difference between component and HDMI but it depends, you need to test them. Also, the more video splitters you use (Such as PvR or any other converter) the laggier it gets.

What you're connecting to the TV with should not be the problem. Many TVs have post-processing to make the image look better, but this results in input lag. The TV should have an option to turn off the post-processing or some kind of "gaming mode" that turns it off. Check the manual or Google.
