Home Theater/Need Help With Panasonic TH-50PX60U SC-PT750 combination

Question

back of tv and audio s
I have a Panasonic TH-50PX60U 50" plasma and a Panasonic SC-PT750 home theater surround system.  Here is my dilema:

I want to connect my cable, Xbox360, and PS3 all to the surround system, but cannot figure out how to do so.  Here is some info on each component:

My cable box has one HDMI port in the back (right now I am using the component cables that were given to me by Comcast though).

The TV has two HDMI inputs, as well as two component input setups.

The audio system only has one HDMI out port, and no HDMI inputs.

I am attaching an image of back panels for both the TV and audio unit.

If there is no way to connect them "as is", is there anything I can buy to be able to connect them all, like an HDMI port box or something to that nature?  

Thanks in advance for your time.

Answer
Hello Israel,
You do have a problem, your system does not have enough ports.
You can use HDMI for Video input to TV, For composite Audio and video (RED WHITE AND YELLOW WIRES)You need to get a 4 in 1 out switch and you can get this at any electronics store.
Make sure you also buy 3-4 extra 6 feet long RCA audio video cables.

Thanks
